Hi,

I have an everywhere convex function that I want to maximise, subject to linear
constraints.

The function is one of about 1000 variables, with about half as many
constraints as vars.

Does anyone have any pointers to a fast algorithm for this type of problem?  It
is probably one of the easiest to solve numericaly, but I want it done as fast
as possible.


Thanks in anticipation,
Daf.

E-mail resonses would be appreciated.
