Abstract

In this paper, we describe the Globalizer software system for solving global optimization problems. The system implements an approach to solving the global optimization problems using the block multistage scheme of the dimension reduction, which combines the use of Peano curve type evolvents and the multistage reduction scheme. The scheme allows an efficient parallelization of the computations and increasing the number of processors employed in the parallel solving of the global optimization problems many times.
