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.
