What you will learn

Basic Concepts and Terms Related to Optimization

How to Formulate a Mathematical Problem

Linear Programming and Coding LP Problems in GAMS

Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) and Coding MILP Problems in GAMS

Non-Linear Programming (NLP) and Coding NLP Problems in GAMS

Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming (MINLP) and Coding MINLP Problems in GAMS

Multi Objective Optimization

Sequential Goal Programming and How to Code a SGP Problem in GAMS

Why take this course?

The art of decision making and finding the optimal solution to a problem is getting more and more attention in recent years. In this course, you will learn how to deal with various types of mathematical optimization problems as below:

Linear Programming (LP)
Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP)
Non-Linear Programming
Mixed Integer Non-Linear Programming
Multi-Objective Optimization

We start from the beginning that you need to formulate a problem. Therefore, after finishing this course, you will be able to find and formulate decision variables, objective function, constraints and define your parameters. Moreover, you will learn how to develop the model that you formulated in the GAMS environment. Using GAMS, you will learn how to:

Define Sets, Parameters, Scalars, Objective Function & Constraints
Import and read data from an external source (Excel file)
Solve the optimization problem using various solvers such as CPLEX, IPOPT, COUENNE, BONMIN, ...
Create a report from your result in GAMS results
Export your results into an external source (Excel file)
Deal with multi-objective problems and solve them using GAMS solvers

In this course, we solve simple to complex optimization examples from engineering, production management, scheduling, transportation, supply chain, and ... areas.

This course is structured based on 3 examples for each of the main mathematical programming sections. In the first two examples, you will learn how to deal with that type of specific problem. Then you will be asked to challenge yourself by developing the challenge problem into GAMS. However, even the challenge problem will be explained and solved with details.

It was one of the best learning courses in the Gams software. I needed the topic of multi-objective optimization and its coding method, and after seeing this tutorial, I was able to easily apply it in my research. I wish Dr. Shirzadi taught other multi-objective optimization methods like LP metric, Ε-Constraint, and so on.

I came thinking we would learn more about control flows, loops etc. and it was only covered in a 10min video without examples... Too many examples using the same methodology and too little tricks showed

I am a master student at the University of Padova(Italy), this course would definitely help me to boost my knowledge in the world of optimization which is connected to my major directly.

This course was utterly useful for me. Although my field is Actuarial Science, I haven't had any knowledge in it yet. to me, this course was the fastest way to learn the theory and practice of optimization with implementation on GAMS.
