Lotka Volterra fishing problem (AMPL)

AMPL

The model in AMPL code for a fixed control discretization grid with a collocation method. We need a model file lotka_ampl.mod,

Preliminary Results

Default values for all the options are used in all the solvers under NEOS Server environment using AMPL.

The preliminary results are as follows:

• MINLP : Infeasible problem
• FilMINT : Error in MINTO
• Bonmin : (options = B-BB, B-OA, B-QG and B-Hyb) Infeasible problem
• KNITRO : problem solved with objective value 1.5847 when using Branch and Bound; the solution can be obtained around 15 seconds (CPU time) by some branching strategies without parallel features

The preliminary results are tested by Henry Kar Ming Chan
