[[Selecting the Optimization Engine|Optimization engines]] can be controlled by changing certain internal settings. These settings are accessible through the optional «SettingName» and «SettingValue» parameters of [[DefineOptimization]](). It is sometimes useful to experiment with different settings if the engine is not performing as expected on a particular type of problem (see [[Specifying Settings]]). 

You may also want to try different engines using the optional «Engine» parameter of [[DefineOptimization]]().
