GAMS Corporation, in general, does not develop software to solve models. Rather they develop procedures linking to software developed by others and then GAMS automatically links to that software whenever a model is to be solved. A variety of third party software has been interfaced with GAMS and can be licensed through the GAMS Corporation. In this section I list the third party software available as of GAMS version 20.5 giving some of its broad characteristics. We should note that the solver manuals are the true reference source for each solver and we provide hyperlinks to the latest version(s) of that documentation available. Before doing this we briefly discuss licensing and the reasons for and conventions behind the way alternative versions of the same software item are distributed.
