TOOLBOX REQUIREMENTS
______________________________________________________________________________

> Operating system:    Windows or Linunx 32BITS


> MATLAB version:  
		       Matlab 6.5- or higher

		       NOTE: To use the most efficient implementation with 
                             FORTRAN compilation:

		       	     MATLAB 6.5 to MATLAB 7.1 (exclusive) require MATLAB
                             compatible FORTRAN compiler Compaq Visual Studio
                             for windows

                             From MATLAB 7.1, g95 will be used. Automatically 
			     incorporated for windows users. Linux users require
		             to install g95.
  
> MATLAB Toolboxes:
		    	 
		       Matlab Optimization Toolbox (for using MATLAB local solvers
                       such as fmincon or fminsearch)

INSTALLATION
______________________________________________________________________________


> Unzip the .zip archive in your PC

> Start a Matlab session and go to the AMIGO folder

> Type AMIGO_Startup everytime you want to use AMIGO toolbox

> Follow the tutorial, user-guide and examples included in the folder Examples
  to learn how to use the toolbox
