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.
