VISUAL MODELLER FOR MATHEMATICAL OPTIMIZATION

Embodiments include methods, and computer program products of a visual modeler of mathematical optimization. Aspects include: analyzing requirements of a visual model of mathematical optimization, designing the visual model of mathematical optimization in graphical form using a visual interface, visualizing the visual model of mathematical optimization model, generating computer code for the solution of the optimization model, and providing output of the visual model of the mathematical optimization from the relevant solver. Designing may include: collecting required data in graphical form using the visual interface and from databases connected to the visual interface, designing objects manually using simple mathematical notation by an expert user, using descriptions in words for later implementation by an inexperienced user, and selecting from a list of standard object types. The providing may include providing output computer code in a predetermined language to one or more computers, and link visual model of mathematical optimization directly to one or more solvers to generate results of visual model of mathematical optimization.
