About this Subscription

This learning subscription is designed to help SAS analysts cut through uncertainty by simulating the probability of various outcomes. Analysts can then assess the worst-case and best-case scenarios and adjust plans accordingly to prevent fraud, reduce risk, and increase efficiency.

Learn how to:

  • Solve linear, mixed integer linear, and nonlinear optimization problems using the OPTMODEL procedure.
  • Formulate and solve mathematical optimization models using the OPTMODEL procedure, from data selection to interpreting results and generating reports.
  • Incorporate network analysis and network optimization to provide solutions and solve real-world business challenges using the NETWORK and OPTNETWORK procedures on the SAS Viya platform.
  • Use matrix algebra, simulate data, write custom statistical analyses, or work with R from SAS/IML.
  • Use discrete-event simulation models as a way to understand and analyze complex real-world systems. The models can then be used to look at various changes to the processes to determine the impacts those changes might have.

      This course focuses on linear, nonlinear, and efficiency optimization concepts. You learn how to formulate optimization problems and how to make their formulations efficient by using index sets and arrays. The demonstrations in the course include examples of data envelopment analysis and portfolio optimization. The OPTMODEL procedure is used to solve optimization problems that reinforce concepts introduced in the course.

      The e-learning format of this course includes Virtual Lab time to practice.

    “I think the self-paced training was the BEST I’ve ever taken. The videos were short and segmented correctly to keep my attention and the activities and quizzes were just enough to help my confidence.”
