Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia
Mathematical optimization (alternatively spelled optimisation) or mathematical programming is the selection of a best element, with regard to some criteria, from some set of available alternatives. [1][2] It is generally divided into two subfields: discrete optimization and continuous optimization.

Optimization | Definition, Techniques, & Facts | Britannica
Optimization, collection of mathematical principles and methods used for solving quantitative problems. Optimization problems typically have three fundamental elements: a quantity to be maximized or minimized, a collection of variables, and a set of constraints that restrict the variables.

OPTIMIZATION Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster
The meaning of OPTIMIZATION is an act, process, or methodology of making something (such as a design, system, or decision) as fully perfect, functional, or effective as possible; specifically : the mathematical procedures (such as finding the maximum of a function) involved in this.

1. WHAT IS OPTIMIZATION? - University of Washington
Optimization problem: Maximizing or minimizing some function relative to some set, often representing a range of choices available in a certain situation. The function allows comparison of the different choices for determining which might be “best.”

Optimization - Math.net
Optimization, within the context of mathematics, refers to the determination of the best result (given the desired constraints) of a set of possible outcomes. We can use the first and second derivative tests to find the global minima and maxima of quantities involved in word problems.

The plurals of these are maxima and minima. We often simply say "max" or "min;" it saves a lot of syllables. Some books say "relative" instead of "local." The process of finding maxima or minima is called optimization. A point is a local max (or min) if it is higher (lower) than all the nearby points. These points come from the shape of the graph.

4.7 Applied Optimization Problems – Calculus Volume 1
Solving Optimization Problems over a Closed, Bounded Interval The basic idea of the optimization problems that follow is the same. We have a particular quantity that we are interested in maximizing or minimizing. However, we also have some auxiliary condition that needs to be satisfied. For example, in (Figure) , we are interested in maximizing the area of a rectangular garden. Certainly, if ...

Real-Life Applications of Mathematical Optimization
Mathematical optimization involves the process of maximizing or minimizing a function, often referred to as the objective function, while satisfying a set of constraints. Optimization problems are broadly categorized as continuous or discrete based on the nature of decision variables.

Optimization | Definition & Examples
Optimization is the process of making a system as effective or functional as possible by adjusting variables to find the best solution. It involves defining an objective function, modeling the problem, and applying optimization algorithms to achieve the desired outcome.
