The mystic framework provides a collection of optimization algorithms
and tools that allows the user to more robustly (and easily) solve hard
optimization problems. All optimization algorithms included in mystic
provide workflow at the fitting layer, not just access to the algorithms
as function calls. mystic gives the user fine-grained power to both
monitor and steer optimizations as the fit processes are running.
Optimizers can advance one iteration with Step, or run to completion
with ``Solve``. Users can customize optimizer stop conditions, where both
compound and user-provided conditions may be used. Optimizers can save
state, can be reconfigured dynamically, and can be restarted from a
saved solver or from a results file. All solvers can also leverage
parallel computing, either within each iteration or as an ensemble of
solvers.
