&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;In [[mathematics]], [[computer science]] and [[operations research]], '''mathematical optimization''' (alternatively, '''optimization''' or '''mathematical programming''') is the selection of a best element (with regard to some criteria) from some [[Set (mathematics)|set]] of available alternatives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the simplest case, an optimization problem consists of maximizing or minimizing a real function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and computing the value of the function.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The generalization of optimization theory and techniques to other formulations comprises a large area of [[applied mathematics]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More generally, optimization includes finding &amp;quot;best available&amp;quot; values of some objective function given a defined domain (or a set of constraints), including a variety of different types of objective functions and different types of domains.&lt;br /&gt;
