Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia
Mathematical optimization (alternatively spelled optimisation) or mathematical programming is the selection of a best element, with regard to some criteria, from some set of available alternatives. [1][2] It is generally divided into two subfields: discrete optimization and continuous optimization.

4.7 Applied Optimization Problems – Calculus Volume 1
Solving Optimization Problems over a Closed, Bounded Interval The basic idea of the optimization problems that follow is the same. We have a particular quantity that we are interested in maximizing or minimizing. However, we also have some auxiliary condition that needs to be satisfied. For example, in (Figure) , we are interested in maximizing the area of a rectangular garden. Certainly, if ...

Why optimization? In some sense, all engineering design is optimization: choosing design parameters to improve some objective Much of data analysis is also optimization: extracting some model parameters from data while minimizing some error measure (e.g. fitting)
