Modeling and Optimization with GAMS (basic)

with Josef Kallrath (University of Florida, Gainesville, FL)

This three-day course is designed to help those new to GAMS become more familiar with it and gain the knowledge to model and solve simple optimization problems. The participants will receive an introduction to mathematical optimization, including modeling and solution algorithms. Following the course, the participants will be able to map decision problems to the basic objects of optimization models: indices, data, variables, constraints, and objective functions.

The course is designed for participants with no prior knowledge of GAMS, though experience with other programming languages may be beneficial. It has many hands-on examples and exercises!

As a new addition to the course: we will be looking at how ChatGPT/CoPilot could be used for the generation or analysis of GAMS code.

The course offers ample opportunity for discussion and analysis of participants’ own problems, in addition to the presentation, examples, hands-on activities and exercises.
