The SMOOTH method is described in the report: 94-11.ps.Z "A Class of Smoothing Functions for Nonlinear and Mixed Complementarity Problems" Chunhui Chen and O. L. Mangasarian Mathematical Programming Technical Report 94-11, August 1994, Revised October 1994 and February 1995. To appear in Computational Optimization and Applications This report is available by ftp from: ftp://ftp.cs.wisc.edu/math-prog/tech-reports/94-11.ps.Z If you have a version of GAMS that supports use of MPSGE, MILES or PATH, then the executable (for SUNOS) contained in this directory can be used in conjunction with that version of GAMS without any additional cost. Contact ferris@cs.wisc.edu for further details. Other platforms may be also supported, please ask.
