Here at GAMS we are proud to work closely with our customers and help them solve their problems. Below you will find a selection of case studies that demonstrate the diverse application areas of mathematical optimization with GAMS.
High Throughput Screening is a scientific experimentation method widely used in pharmaceutical research especially in the field of drug discovery. Because the large number of promising compounds for new drugs cannot be analyzed by manual labor, the screening process is automated using robotics. A GAMS model helps increase experimental throughput.

The electricity generation sector in the U.S. is a major contributor of CO2 emissions. Thus emissions reductions from this sector will play a central role in any coordinated CO2 emission reduction effort aimed at combating climate change. One technology option that may help the electricity generation sector meet this challenge is carbon capture and storage (CCS). The U.S. Department of Energy is using GAMS in two projects aimed at advancing carbon capture technologies.
