Re: BARON solver cannot handle the "Sign" function
BARON only "understands" a subset of functions offered by GAMS. BARON, unlike local solvers like Conopt, need the algebra of the non-linear expression to build (linear) underestimators. It can do that for all operators (*,/,**,+,-) but not for all functions. The trig functions sin, cos, ta...

Re: SOS1 variable modelling
GAMS defines the membership of a variable to a SOS set by the last index in the SOS variable declaration. As a consequence of this you can't have a variable appear in two SOS sets. Your model has this (e.g. W(T2,2,U1) shows up in the first and second SOS set in your example). I have not seen models ...

Re: Issue of dual from energy/reserves balance constraint in optimization model
In an LP there is no such thing as bounds on the dual. It is not unusal to get different dual solution with different solvers. With LPs you can have different optimal basis with different (primal and) dual solutions. Uniqueness in the optimal solution is very rare in practical models. If you want mo...

Re: GAMSPy model building
Thanks for sharing the code. The trouble is that the description of set "impact" had some funny characters which don't show when you look at the file in github ("impact categories like EUR or USD, CO 2 − eq") but do when you check this out on Windows and look at it in e.g. notepa...

Re: GAMSpy error
I fear your screen shot is not enough to point you to the issue. Please share the entire Python script (or make a minimal example) so one can reproduce. If you are a licensed user and can't share the script here in the forum, you might want to consider to email support@gams.com with something that l...

Re: Excel export and import in a loop
One issue might be, that Connect's Excel reader reads values from the spreadsheet. It does not reevaluate formulas. So if you write to one part of the spreadsheet and hope that another part gets recalculated, I think this is not happening. The Excel API we use in Connect just does not do that. For t...

Re: Tuning CPLEX solver options for large-scale MIP problems
When switching from one version to another, I always give "default" a try (you can copy the tolerance options, e.g. epgap etc) but no algorithmic option and see how the solver does. If that's no good, then I would go for the meta options (e.g. mipemphasis) and depending on some experiments...

Introducing GAMSPy
Exciting Announcement: We are introducing GAMSPy! What is GAMSPy? GAMSPy combines the high-performance GAMS execution system with the flexible Python language, creating a powerful mathematical optimization package. It acts as a bridge between the expressive Python language and the robust GAMS system...
