TLDR
A unified treatment of algorithms is described for linear programming methods based on the central path, which is a curve along which the cost decreases, and that stays always far from the centre.

A trust region method based on interior point techniques for nonlinear programming

TL;DR: This paper focuses on the primal version of the new algorithm, an algorithm for minimizing a nonlinear function subject to nonlinear inequality constraints, which applies sequential quadratic programming techniques to a sequence of barrier problems.

Disciplined Convex Programming

TL;DR: A new methodology for constructing convex optimization models called disciplined convex programming is introduced, which enforces a set of conventions upon the models constructed, in turn allowing much of the work required to analyze and solve the models to be automated.

Numerical Optimization: Theoretical and Practical Aspects

J. F. Bonnans
TL;DR: This book is about the theoretical foundations of optimization algorithms, and also provides practical insights on how such methods should be implemented and applied, and provides adequate examples to help the reader understand the methods better and explore possible pitfalls.

Optimal reactive dispatch through interior point methods

TL;DR: An implementation of an interior point method to the optimal reactive dispatch problem is described in this article, which is based on the primal-dual algorithm and the numerical results in large scale networks (1832 and 3467 bus systems) have shown that this technique can be very effective to some optimal power flow applications.

A new polynomial-time algorithm for linear programming

TL;DR: It is proved that given a polytopeP and a strictly interior point a εP, there is a projective transformation of the space that mapsP, a toP′, a′ having the following property: the ratio of the radius of the smallest sphere with center a′, containingP′ to theradius of the largest sphere withCenter a′ contained inP′ isO(n).

On the Implementation of a Primal-Dual Interior Point Method

TL;DR: A Taylor polynomial of second order is used to approximate a primal-dual trajectory and an adaptive heuristic for estimating the centering parameter is given, which treats primal and dual problems symmetrically.
