Hi
As requested by Fabrice, this is the link to the web page for the library.
http://www.alliot.fr/fbbdet.html.fr
There are some more things on this page, such as an introduction to interval programming, and to B&B techniques with interval arithmetic.

Friendly

Hi,

  Thanks for your contribution ! Could you create a web page with all
this information ? When we want to advertise the existence of such a
package (from the hump, for example), it is better to link to a web page
instead of directly to the source archive, in case the archive is
updated, or something like that.

This is an interval computation library for ocaml. The download link is :

This library uses assembly code to compute all operations with proper
roundings (high/low), and currently ONLY works on intel processors.
The package has been developped for linux systems but should probably
work on windows distribution with a few tweaks.

Documentation is available in the doc/ directory in html, pdf and dvi
formats. It is extremely wise to read the whole documentation, even if
you intend to only use the interval module.

To build the library just type "make" in the main directory.

Tests are available in the TESTS/ directory. They are mainly for
debugging purpose and quite complicated. You may run them to
check that everything is working properly for your machine.
The test program runs also a speed test program for your
particular architecture.

Examples are available in the EXAMPLES/ directory. There is a
B_AND_B sub-directory with an example of a branch-and-bound algorithm
that uses interval arithmetics for function optimization (the
example is for the Griewank function, but you can substitute
any function you like).


All bug reports should be sent to
jean-marc.alliot@irit.fr
gottelan@recherche.enac.fr

Happy interval programming...
