Hello Maxime: Have you look in the literature for more proper minimization algorithm for your problem ? GSL just offers classical algorithm.

Hi, I have a multidimensional minimization problem for which the function is pretty long to compute (think hours or days). I coded a master-slave MPI communication structure to do the work. I would have the master who dispatches sets of parameters to compute to different slaves, on different computers. What I am wondering is if there is a way to use GSL multidimensional minimization algorithms in a "queue many and wait for result" fashion rather than in a "evaluate the function sequentially" fashion. Thanks, Maxime Boissonneault
