The new AIMMS release version 3.7 (due in October) offers several new features, including:

1. Integrated GIS support — the capability to dynamically retrieve background images from one or more GIS servers to enhance visualization, interpretation and modification of data in the AIMMS network object. AIMMS will support the retrieval of data layers from any GIS server that supports the WMS, WFS and GML standards.

2. Stochastic programming support — the ability to generate stochastic LP/MIP recourse models from any given deterministic model. It will allow users to solve mathematical models with uncertainty to optimality and create robust solutions without the need to change the symbolic formulation of the models.

3. New syntax editor — modifying and inspection of the AIMMS model code will become much easier using new syntax support features such as user configurable formatting (personal profiles), coloring, code blocks, auto indentation, bracket matching, tooltips and member lists.

4. Parallel solver session support — modeling applications that solve multiple math programs in parallel on one or more computers. Advanced optimization applications in which multiple independent math programs can be solved simultaneously can now boost their performance on multi-processor computer or multi-core processors.
