[edit] Spelling: Constrained Optimization

This method is actually spelled Constrained Optimization. After all, it is not trying to optimize the constraints but it is optimizing within the constraints. Here's a reliable source. I would like to move the article. --EnOreg (talk) 04:22, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

The literature seems to be ambivalent about the name. I agree to move the article name to Constrained Optimization, but also keep the name Constraint optimization in the leading paragraph.Diego (talk) 08:21, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Don't move. At least as far as the article keeps its current content, the references use the term "constraint optimization", e.g. [1]. Tizio 11:51, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
