Optimization Modelling Languages

The goal of the thesis is to introduce readers into the use of the GAMS modelling language that is an important tool for optimization model building. The overview of useful mathematical concepts introduces the text. The main part of thesis contains four examples presented in detail. Firstly, the basic GAMS related concepts, statements and techniques involving analysis of results are described. The second example illustrates development of model description beginning from quite specific instance towards general and flexible one. Two examples solved at the end show further use of the GAMS and can motivate reader to enhance their konwledge and apply optimization in his areas of specialization
