SAS/OR software provides SAS procedures for operations research and project planning and includes a menu driven system for project management. SAS/OR software has features for the following:

• solving transportation problems

• linear, integer, and mixed-integer programming

• nonlinear programming and optimization

• scheduling projects

• plotting Gantt charts

• drawing network diagrams

• solving optimal assignment problems

• network flow programming

SAS/OR software might be of interest to users of SAS/ETS software for its mathematical programming features. In particular, the NLP and OPTMODEL procedures in SAS/OR software solve nonlinear programming problems and can be used for constrained and unconstrained maximization of user-defined likelihood functions.

See SAS/OR 9.22 User's Guide: Mathematical Programming for more information.
