SAS/OR software provides SAS procedures for operations research and project planning and includes a point-and-click interface to project management. Its capabilities include the following:
solving transportation problems
linear, integer, and mixed-integer programming
nonlinear programming
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/STAT software for its mathematical programming features. In particular, the NLP procedure in SAS/OR software solves nonlinear programming problems, and it can be used for constrained and unconstrained maximization of user-defined likelihood functions.
