Getting Started Tutorials

As a beginner AIMMS user, the best starting point is the Tutorials.

• Tutorial for Beginners

The Tutorial for Beginners is a one-hour tutorial designed as the bare minimum needed to build simple models using the AIMMS Model Explorer. Data values are entered manually using data pages, and you can build a page with objects to view and modify the data.

AIMMS Learning Game

Extend your AIMMS knowledge and modeling skills with an AIMMS based-game. It follows a witch apprentice who rises in rank in the witches’ guild by solving increasingly difficult modeling and AIMMS assignments.

The game is played in a developer version of AIMMS. Each level includes a tutorial explaining the AIMMS functionality used.

Completion of each A-level provides you with the password needed to enter the next level. A-levels focus on optimization modeling, while B-levels focus on AIMMS functionality.

Note

Level 2b uses a MS Access database and therefore we advise you to download a 32-bit version of AIMMS. However 32-bit versions are only available in older versions. We are working to update this tutorial to be compatible with the newest versions of AIMMS.
