<div dir="ltr">Someone had to do it.<div><br></div><div>I will not try to frame the entire discussion. Barry has already thrown down the "show me your interface" gauntlet. However, I want to emphasize one point that may have been lost in the prior discussion. Every example I have looked at so far is focused on the reduced space formulation of the optimization problem. However, I am interested in the full space formulation so that I can do multigrid on the entire optimal control problem. This is not a new idea, in particular Borzi does this in SIAM Review in 2009. I think we have a tremendous opportunity here since other codes cannot do this, it has the potential (I think) for much better globalization, and perhaps can be faster.</div><div><br></div><div>So, when we come up with interface proposals, I think we should keep a full space solution method in mind.</div><div><br></div><div> Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div> Matt<br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their experiments lead.<br>-- Norbert Wiener</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.caam.rice.edu/~mk51/" target="_blank">https://www.cse.buffalo.edu/~knepley/</a><br></div></div></div></div></div>
