Abstract
In this paper, two different acceleration techniques for a deterministic DIRECT (DIviding RECTangles)-type global optimization algorithm, DIRECT-GLce, are considered. We adopt dynamic data structures for better memory usage in MATLAB implementation. We also study shared and distributed parallel implementations of the original DIRECT-GLce algorithm, and a distributed parallel version for the aggressive counterpart. The efficiency of DIRECT-type parallel versions is evaluated solving box- and generally constrained global optimizations problems with varying complexity, including a practical NASA speed reducer design problem. Numerical results show a good efficiency, especially for the distributed parallel version of the original DIRECT-GLce on a multi-core PC.
