Guide to Available Mathematical Software

The Guide to Available Mathematical Software (GAMS) is a project of the National Institute of Standards and Technology to classify mathematical software by the type of problem that it solves. GAMS became public in 1985.{{citation|title=Numerical Issues in Statistical Computing for the Social Scientist|volume=508|series=Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics|authorlink1=Micah Altman|authorlink2=Jeff Gill (academic)|first1=Micah|last1=Altman|first2=Jeff|last2=Gill|first3=Michael P.|last3=McDonald|publisher=John Wiley & Sons|year=2004|isbn=9780471475743|page=92|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=2Feq7zgkCIkC&pg=PA92}}
