Consider the typical case of minimising a unimodal function where evaluating the function is by far the most time consuming part of the minimisation. Some desktop computers are ‘quad-core’; that is, they potentially can evaluate four function values simultaneously, in parallel, in the same time it takes the computer to evaluate one function value. Comment on aspects of a novel search algorithm that aims to take advantage of the parallel evaluation on a quad-core computer with
