About:
GAMS is a high-level modeling system designed for mathematical modeling and optimization. It allows users to formulate complex optimization problems in a concise, algebraic form, automatically translating them for submission to powerful external solvers. This tool streamlines the process of building, solving, and analyzing large-scale optimization models.
Key Features:
  • Algebraic modeling language for concise problem formulation
  • Automatic data manipulation and report generation
  • Integrated access to a wide variety of commercial and open-source solvers
  • Cross-platform compatibility and robust debugging tools
Use Cases:
  • Economic and energy system modeling
  • Supply chain and logistics optimization
  • Financial portfolio management and risk analysis
Alternatives:
  • Pyomo – Open-source Python-based alternative, requires more coding but offers deep integration with the Python ecosystem.
  • Julia/JuMP – High-performance modeling language embedded in Julia, known for speed and modern language features.
