This appendix provides benchmarks of SDPpack Version 0.8 BETA on some randomly generated test problems, a set of 16 LMI problems from control applications, and a set of 8 problems from truss topology design. The LMI and the truss design problems are available as mat files from the SDPpack home page.
The truss design problems were solved with sdp.m with the default values of parameters set using setpars.m:
The benchmarks were conducted on an SGI workstation with a MIPS R10000 processor, a MIPS R10010 floating point unit and 192 MB of main memory. In the tables, pinfeas, dinfeas and dgap are shown on a log scale (). Each * next to termflag indicates a restart.
