Abstract
Much reusable software is available for solving routine mathematical a nd statistical problems. Unfortunately, locating this software is ofte n quite difficult in current distributed computing environments. The G uide to Available Mathematical Software (GAMS) virtual software reposi tory seeks to remedy this by providing users with convenient access to thousands of software modules physically distributed among several In ternet repositories, including netlib. In this paper the author will i llustrate the use of GAMS, describe its implementation, and outline pl ans for the incorporation of expert advisory capabilities.
