constrained optimization
...Rsolnp package, but unfortunately it is not very clear what method is R ported. (The authors ported the matlab code of Yinyu Ye http://www.stanford.edu/~yyye/ <http://www.stanford.edu/%7Eyyye/>) Currently I'm looking for an implementation of sequential quadratic programming to replicate SNOPT*. A good reference I found on the web is this booklet http://www2.imm.dtu.dk/pubdb/views/edoc_download.php/5456/pdf/imm5456.pdf . Does anyone know an implementation of such algorithms? Is there any fortran implementation available useful if I have to implement it? Thanks in advance Christophe...

Maximization of a loglikelihood function with double sums
Dear R experts, Attached you can find the expression of a loglikelihood function which I would like to maximize in R. So far, I have done maximization with the combined use of the mathematical programming language AMPL (www.ampl.com) and the solver SNOPT (http://www.sbsi-sol-optimize.com/manuals/SNOPT%20Manual.pdf). With these tools, maximization is carried out in a few seconds. I wonder if that could possible with R, too. Therefore, I would highly appreciate if any R user with experience in maximization could tell me if a function like that could...
