Abstract

This paper reports a new Modelica-based open source project entitled JModelica.org; targeted towards dynamic optimization. The objective of the project is to bridge the gap between the need for high-level description languages and the details of numerical optimization algorithms. JModelica.org is also intended as an extensible platform where algorithm developers; particularly in the academic community; may integrate new and innovative methods. In doing so; researchers gain access to a wealth of industrially relevant optimization problems based on existing Modelica models; while at the same time facilitating industrial use of state of the art algorithms. In this contribution; an overview of the platform is presented and the main features of JModelica.org are highlighted.
