driver3.f90

This time-controlled driver shows that it is possible to terminate a run by elapsed CPU time, and yet be able to print all desired information. This driver also illustrates the use of two stopping criteria that may be used in conjunction with a limit on execution time. The sample problem used here is the same as in driver1 and driver2 (the extended Rosenbrock function with bounds on the variables). (Fortran-90 version)

!            TIME-CONTROLLED DRIVER FOR L-BFGS-B 
!     --------------------------------------------------------------
!
!        L-BFGS-B is a code for solving large nonlinear optimization
!             problems with simple bounds on the variables.
!
!        The code can also be used for unconstrained problems and is
!        as efficient for these problems as the earlier limited memory
!                          code L-BFGS.
!
!        This driver shows how to terminate a run after some prescribed
!        CPU time has elapsed, and how to print the desired information 
!        before exiting.

      program driver
 
!     This time-controlled driver shows that it is possible to terminate
!     a run by elapsed CPU time, and yet be able to print all desired
!     information. This driver also illustrates the use of two
!     stopping criteria that may be used in conjunction with a limit
!     on execution time. The sample problem used here is the same as in 
!     driver1 and driver2 (the extended Rosenbrock function with bounds 
!     on the variables).

!     We specify a limit on the CPU time (tlimit = 10 seconds)
!
!     We suppress the default output (iprint = -1). The user could 
!       also elect to use the default output by choosing iprint >= 0.)
!     We suppress the code-supplied stopping tests because we will
!       provide our own termination conditions
!     We specify the dimension n of the sample problem and the number
!        m of limited memory corrections stored.

!     on the variables).
 
!     We now specify nbd which defines the bounds on the variables:
!                    l   specifies the lower bounds,
!                    u   specifies the upper bounds. 
 
!     First set bounds on the odd-numbered variables.
 
      do 10 i=1, n,2
         nbd(i)=2
         l(i)=1.0d0
         u(i)=1.0d2
  10  continue
 
!     Next set bounds on the even-numbered variables.
 
      do 12 i=2, n,2
         nbd(i)=2
         l(i)=-1.0d2
         u(i)=1.0d2
  12   continue
 
!     We now define the starting point.
 
      do 14 i=1, n
         x(i)=3.0d0
  14  continue
 
!     We now write the heading of the output.

!          Note: Assigning task(1:4)='STOP' will terminate the run;
!          setting task(7:9)='CPU' will restore the information at
!          the latest iterate generated by the code so that it can
!          be correctly printed by the driver.
 
!          In this driver we have chosen to disable the
!          printing options of the code (we set iprint=-1);
