The constrained-optimization problem (COP) is a significant generalization of the classic constraint-satisfaction problem (CSP) model. [1] COP is a CSP that includes an objective function to be optimized. Many algorithms are used to handle the optimization part.
A general chance constrained optimization problem can be formulated as follows: (,,) (,,) =, {(,,)}Here, is the objective function, represents the equality constraints, represents the inequality constraints, represents the state variables, represents the control variables, represents the uncertain parameters, and is the confidence level.
Mathematical programming with equilibrium constraints (MPEC) is the study of constrained optimization problems where the constraints include variational inequalities or complementarities. MPEC is related to the Stackelberg game. MPEC is used in the study of engineering design, economic equilibrium, and multilevel games.
This falls into the problem of constrained optimization. When the number of alternatives is fixed, the problem is called constrained ranking and selection where the goal is to select the best feasible design given that both the main objective and the constraint measures need to be estimated via stochastic simulation.

A constraint optimization problem (COP) is a constraint satisfaction problem associated to an objective function. An optimal solution to a minimization (maximization) COP is a solution that minimizes (maximizes) the value of the objective function. During the search of the solutions of a COP, a user can wish for:
Sequential quadratic programming (SQP) is an iterative method for constrained nonlinear optimization which may be considered a quasi-Newton method.SQP methods are used on mathematical problems for which the objective function and the constraints are twice continuously differentiable, but not necessarily convex.
A multiple constrained problem could consider both the weight and volume of the books. (Solution: if any number of each book is available, then three yellow books and three grey books; if only the shown books are available, then all except for the green book.) The knapsack problem is the following problem in combinatorial optimization:
