GAMS users,
I am interested to implement a sensitivity analysis to my Non Lineal
Programming(NLP) model.For example If I got the follow results in
GAMS:
---- VARIABLE S
LOWER LEVEL UPPER MARGINAL
A 8.626 8.626 8.626
1000
What is the interpretation of the Marginal value?, considering that is
not a linear equation. I know that if it is a lineal programming means
that my ObjFunction will increase in 1000 per one unit.But what is the
meaning for Marginal value in Nonlinear Programming?. Is there are
any better way to implement a sensitivity analysis for nonlinear
programming?. Thanks in advance
Any feedback is greatly appreciated
Omar

Omar,
I tried the search on the GAMS web page: looking for marginal value I
found a description that I think captures it well:
http://support.gams.com/doku.php?id=gams:what_is_the_meaning_of_the_marginal_values
The interpretation for NLP is not so different than for LP.

Thanks Steve for the link.But, I think that marginal values are valid
only at the single point of the optimal solution for NLP. In the case
of LP, the marginal remain constant over a range of bases. So I was
wondering if there are any other approach for sensitivity analysis for
NLP.
