PAO: Python Adversarial Optimization

DRAFT DOCUMENTATION

# PAO Overview

PAO is a Python-based package for Adversarial Optimization. PAO extends the modeling concepts in [Pyomo](https://github.com/Pyomo/pyomo) to enable the expression and solution of multi-level optimization problems. The goal of this package is to provide a general modeling and analysis capability, and application exemplars serve to illustrate PAO’s general capabilities.

This package was derived from the capabilities in pyomo.bilevel and pyomo.dualize, which are now deprecated.

Pyomo is available under the BSD License, see the LICENSE.txt file.
