Benefits Geneva
- Generic approach, independent from particular optimization problem
- Works on multi-processors and clusters
- Can be extended to wide-area Grids if security requirements of deployment scenario are met
- Noise-resistant, robust with respect to local optima
- Different parameter types possible (floating point, boolean, ...). Optimization problems can thus be expressed in a very natural way
- User know-how needed in problem definition, not solution finding. Thus experience counts!
- Easily understandable procedure
- User is relieved from burdensome duties
- Open Source code

Featured Software Gem: Geneva
A high performance optimisation library
This picture shows the different iterations in modelling the Mona Lisa with the Geneva library, using 300 semi-transparent, overlapping triangles.
Geneva is a software library which enables users to solve large scale parametric optimization problems. From a user's perspective, parallel and multi-threaded execution can be achieved just as easily as serial execution on a single CPU-core. Performance and extensibility are at the core of the C++-based, object-oriented design. The code is available as Open Source, allowing customization under the terms of the Affero GPL v3. Additional licensing options are available.
About us
Gemfony scientific is a spin-off from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Its goal is to host, maintain and further develop software projects with a scientific origin, and to facilitate the technology transfer into the commercial realm, wherever possible.
It is our ambition to make Open Source versions of our software projects available to the public, wherever possible. Hence we believe to both serve the general good and to simultaneously help promote valuable projects that otherwise would go unnoticed
Please do contact us with any question or suggestion you might have, regarding our products, our mission or any other related topic you feel should be discussed.
