Major Iterations: QP subproblem to be solved and<br />

next iterated values of optimization variables must be<br />

found.<br />

M<strong>in</strong>or Iterations: iterations for QP subproblem to f<strong>in</strong>d<br />

a direction along which a Merit Function may be<br />

m<strong>in</strong>imized with a step size along the direction.<br />

(post­feasibility test) Constra<strong>in</strong>ts are l<strong>in</strong>earized and<br />

slacks added.<br />

Objective function is a Modified Lagrangian – a<br />

quadratic model <strong>in</strong>volv<strong>in</strong>g the problem objective and<br />

departures of the constra<strong>in</strong>ts from l<strong>in</strong>earity.
