浙江大学中国农村发展研究院、中国农业科学院将联合国际食物政策研究所(IFPRI)、GAMS公司举办以“农业与经济建模”为主题的GAMS 高级应用工作坊。GAMS是一种用于数学规划和优化的高级建模软件系统，由语言编译器和稳定的集成高性能算子组成,尤其适用于线性、非线性和混合整数优化问题的建模。GAMS具有强大稳健而快速的求解能力，适合复杂的、大规模的建模应用，被广泛应用于包括能源化工、经济建模、农业规划或制造业等不同领域。另外，GAMS可以灵活的与Excel、Matlab、Python、R等其他软件链接，增强了模型数据和结果的分析和应用能力。目前，超过120多个国家的不同领域的跨国公司、学校、研究机构和政府都在使用GAMS。由于计算机技术的发展，CGE（可计算的一般均衡）模型和多市场多部门局部均衡模型等大型经济学模型也发展迅速，在结构方面表现出很强的优势，能够反映经济系统中各种复杂的相互联动关系，已经成为目前政策模拟分析的强大工具，应用于预测分析和政策模拟评价分析。GAMS也是作为主要的建模软件用于经济模型的开发和应用。

本次活动旨在为国内农业经济及相关学科的青年教师和研究生提供一个互动平台，深入学习了解GAMS 的建模的高级技巧、GAMS软件与Python以及R等其他软件的拓展互动、一般均衡和局部均衡模型及其开发应用，从而提高经济建模能力和研究水平。

教授团队

Dr. Steven Dirkse

Dr. Steven Dirkse received his PhD in Computer Science from UW-Madison in 1994. After a year of teaching math and CS at Calvin College, he joined the staff at GAMS Development in 1995, becoming Director of Optimization in 2003 and President in 2016. His primary focus has been in software development, notably solvers and solver links, data utilities, multi-threading, and quality control and performance testing. He has also consulted on optimization projects with several GAMS clients during this time.Steve has published in many leading journals, gives lectures at conferences, and is an active member of the community: e.g., he is a past Director and current Secretary/Treasurer of the INFORMS Computing Society. As part of his thesis research he developed the PATH solver for Mixed Complementarity Problems (MCP), a robust, large-scale solver that was a great leap forward in solving MCP. For the work on the PATH solver he was awarded the Beale-Orchard-Hayes Prize in 1997.
