W\"achter} and {\it L. T. Biegler} [Math. Program. 106, No. 1 (A), 25--57 (2006; Zbl 1134.90542)] for nonlinear programming. Primary assessment of the proposals has been done with sets of small- and medium-scale problems and large-scale problems separately. Results show that the use of nonmonotone globalization strategies improves efficiency.}, identifier = {05998487}, }
