           INSTRUCTIONS

          

The compressed tar file tron.tar.gz contains the MINPACK-2 

trust region method for the solution of large bound-constrained

optimization problems.

1. Create the tron directory structure with

       gzip -d tron.tar.gz

       tar -xvf tron.tar

   This produces the directory tron and several subdirectories.

2. Set the environment variable ARCH. Installation has been tested

   on linux, rs6000, solaris, irix, and alpha systems. Installation 

   usually works on other systems but has not been tested. The file

   README in the utils directory contains more systems information.

3. Change directories to tron and install tron with

 

       make install

   This creates libraries in each of the subdirectories and

   the executable tron

4. Run the sample problems by executing tron, and compare the output in 

   tron.info with the output on a similar system, tron.linux, for example.
