This is not a complete survey of what is available, and being listed or not listed here says nothing about the quality of a program or package. As a rule, only public domain software or software free for academics is listed; but check in each case the author's copyright notices. (See also the Decision Tree for Optimization Software .)

Unconstrained and Bound Constrained Optimization

(gradient based; if no gradients are available, see codes for derivative-free optimization)

CG_DESCENT, conjugate gradient method (in Fortran, by Hager and Zhang); with a Matlab interface
As of April 2013, this is by far the best sequential first order unconstrained minimization code publicly available. Works in very large dimensions with memory of the order of the problem dimension, and typically in significantly less than 1000 grasdient evaluations (though sometimes it takes much longer, but competing codes are usually not better on these problems).

This is the bound-constrained version of an older version of CG_DESCENT. It is roughly comparable in performance with LBFGS-B on the problems that the latter solves, but is much more robust and succeeds in many cases where LBFGS-B stops with an error message.
