He had the opportunity to virtually dissect and learn the anatomy and functioning of the ASECO system (Autarkic Spatial Energy Clusters Optimization) - an iSPACE software product for energy flows optimization and visualization. For that purpose he had to learn the basics of mathematical modelling with the GAMS (Generalized Algebraic Modelling System). In GAMS, apart from numerous models meant to test the ASECO, he developed a linear programming optimization model for fertilizer selection according to the given NPK doses. He used the model for the ZeaSoft DSS validation. |
