... I used a random initializiaton as you subtract x(j,t) from x(i,t) (same for y). Initializing them with the same values would results in zeros. ... Renger Hi Renger, First of all, I have to appreciate your attention. As per as your valuable comment, I have added the following lines to the code (...

Dear friends, I have coded a facility layout problem as a MINLP model. Then, I used Baron as the default solver. In this model, constraint 19b determines the maximum distance between whole departments (DmaxF, a positive variable). Then, this variable is used on the right-hand sides of constraints 22...

Dear Claudio, First of all, I have to thank you very much for your time. In fact, I want the first display Z.l shows the value "a" and the second display Z.l shows the value of "b". For more clarification, pls look at the following code: $GDXIN Name1.gdx $LOAD Z *** the value of ...

Dear friends, When I run the following code, GAMS does not compile this code in its written order. Could you pls help me out how I can force it to do so? $onmulti Variable Z; $GDXIN Name1.gdx $LOAD Z *** the value of Z here is equal to a*** $GDXIN Display Z.l; $GDXIN Name2.gdx $LOAD Z *** the value ...

Dear friends, I have coded a scheduling problem in GAMS using the Sample Average Approximation. This model is a MILP mathematical model. I have chosen Cplex as the solver for this problem. The code solves a problem in a loop for multiple times, and it fixes binary variables, i.e., xa, and xaa, in ea...

I found the answer to this question. After solving a model, it saves its features in its attributes. For further details, interested readers can see the following link: https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/UG_ModelSolve.html#UG_ModelSolve_ModelAttributes For instance, if we want to optimize a model enti...

Dear sir/ madam, I have coded a problem and used Cplex as the solver. I want to store the optimality status of solutions of this problem. To be more precise, I want to store them in gdx files. Although the GAMS indicates this issue on its report page (i.e., Absolute Gap), I could not find a way to r...

Dear Steve, I am grateful for your prompt attention. Following to your question regarding the decision variables, I have to tell you that variables in this problem are positive integer or binary. To be more precise, around 15,000 of them are binary variables and 8,000 of them are positive integer va...

Dear friends, I have a question. Note that this inquiry is a question asked by a reviewer and I have to fully address his concern. His concern: " The model is really complex with thousands of constraints. I have difficulty in imaging that the exact method needs few seconds... " Let me expl...

Hi, mipstart is not a GAMS but a solver option, see e.g. the CPLEX solver manual: https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/solvers/cplex/index.html#CPLEXmipstart Hence, mipstart needs to be set in a solver option file: https://www.gams.com/latest/docs/solvers/introduction/index.html#BASIC_USAGE_SOLVER_OPTI...
