This post contains some information on how to give a proper reference to the GAMS software and the GAMS documentation in a (scientific) paper. Since the software and the documentation changes with every release, it is a good idea to include the release number XX.Y.Z. A particular release has a publish date, which should be the date mentioned in the reference. The following references are based on the GAMS 36.1.0 release that we published on August 02, 2021. You can find the date in the GAMS Release Notes.
