A number of applications of nonsmooth optimization in industry
will be discussed. Particular focus will be given to the use
of nonsmooth optimization when addressing the solution of combinatorial
optimization problems using the method of Lagrangian relaxation.
The application addressed in this area will be the Data Association
Problem that arises in multitarget tracking. In addition, applications
of semidefinite programming, including model tuning problems
arising in the analysis of aircraft structures, will be discussed.
