Thanks Hurkyl, Will try that out :smile:

Yes all the constants are positive. the thing is the optimum value I get for y is a function of C only. This does not seem correct as it suggests that y is a constant too.

Yes I have graphed it. For the values of the constants I used U=0.006 C=0.00146 it seems to be a plane

Thanks Hurky, Is there some way to check that the solution with continuous variables is optimal even for discrete variables, just the method would do great, i can look it up. Also what is the strong suggestion you observe from the graph of E? Thanks

I am sorry I forgot to mention that x and y are discrete variables.

Help -- Optimization Problem Hello people, I am working on certain energy optimization problems in multiprocessor systems. My objective function is: E= U*x / (1-yC)^2 where U and C are constants and x and y are independent variables. I need to minimize this function under the constrain...
