Abstract: The paper presents a software system aimed at finding best (in some sense) parameters of an algorithm. The system handles both discrete and continuous parameters and employs massive parallelism offered by public clouds. The paper presents an overview of the system, a method to measure algorithm's performance in the cloud and numerical results of system's use on several problem sets. (In Russian).

Key words and phrases: algorithmic parameter optimization, parameter tuning, cloud computing.
