Since this newsgroup periodically receives requests for information on optimization (or mathematical programming) software, I am posting the following brief announcement of the availability of a new package. The AMPL language for describing optimization problems to computer systems was introduced in Management Science 36 (1990) 519-554, and has also been described in many conference talks over the past five years. A complete tutorial and reference for AMPL is now available in: AMPL: A Modeling Language for Mathematical Programming by Robert Fourer, David M. Gay and Brian W. Kernighan This book is packaged with a 300 x 300 MS-DOS version of the AMPL language processor and the MINOS and CPLEX optimizers. It covers linear, network, integer and nonlinear programming, and is suitable for instructional use or evaluation of the software. A variety of other combinations of operating systems and optimizers are also supported. Additional information is available from The Scientific Press at (800) 451-5409 or (415) 583-8840.
