Integrating RRPlugins with libRoadRunner and devloping Differential Evolution optimizer plugin

<p>LibRoadrunner is a high performance SBML based simulator that uses LLVM to generate very efficient runtime code. This enables LibRoadrunner to simulate models on par with compiled C/C++ code. By combining Libroadrunner with standard optimization algorithms it is possible to use Libroadrunner to fit models to data. At present this is done by writing code to link the standard Python optimizer available via scipy with Libroadrunner. Although this works, it is inefficient and for large models, it is not practical. In this project, we would like to develop a C/C++ based differential evolution plugin that can be used directly by Libroadrunner (after integrating it with RRPlugins) without having to go via Python. This would enable us to provide high performance optimization capabilities.</p>
