The paper presents mathematical methods of deterministic optimal control in continuous time and stochastic dynamic programming in discrete time, and computational techniques for their implementation in the General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS). The methods and their computational...

The paper presents methods of linear and nonlinear mathematical programming and their computational implementation in the General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS). It also presents economic examples and introduces a number of solution algorithms: simplex, gradient, Newton and penalties.
