What's New


Since August 2016, the Title bar of the ViewHAR and TABmate windows indicates (after the name of the solution file) whether SLC, UDC or AVC coefficients are being used.

Version 3.05 (May 2014)

Helpfile updates and some small bugfixes.

Version 3.04 (May 2013)

AnalyseGE now behaves more pleasingly on large monitors, and window positions are remembered for your next session. In addition there have been several small bugfixes.

Version 3.02 (May 2011)

The size limits for files which can be loaded without a GEMPACK licence was increased to allow simulations with the 37 commodity version of ORANI-G used in CoPS training courses.

Version 2.99 (June 2010)

AnalyseGE can now handle expressions containing index-in-set such as

IF(c in margcom, coef1(c)) ;

Version 2.95 (September 2009)

The new item "Offer Save Option when Close" in the Options menu on the AnalyseGE form allows you to control whether or not you are offered the option of saving text and HA files when you close AnalyseGE.

The "Save As.." menu item under the ViewHAR form's File menu is now visible and usually enabled - this allows you to save the Header Array file from AnalyseGE whenever you want to.

Version 2.93 (February 2009)

The ViewHAR form in AnalyseGE now allows you to copy individual rows, columns or cells to the clipboard. Right-click on a number to copy it to the clipboard. Control-Click on a row or column label to copy that row or column to the clipboard.

Version 2.92 (March 2008)

Release 10 of GEMPACK supports new functions GPERF, GPERFC, LOGNORMAL and CUMLOGNORMAL - see  the GEMPACK manual. These functions can now be evaluated by AnalyseGE.

Version 2.89 (November 2007)

You can evaluate Coefficients appearing on the RHS of a Formula in a RAS_MATRIX function. [RAS_MATRIX is introduced in Release 10 of GEMPACK.]

Version 2.88 (October 2007)

If the TAB file used contains levels equations, you can choose to load a linearised version of that TAB file into the TABmate window instead of the original TAB file. We think that the linearised TAB file (it contains linearised versions of the levels equations) gives you more scope for analysing the equations part of your model in AnalyseGE.

Version 2.85 (March 2007)

A new closing dialog is used. And you have the option of saying that you never again wish to be asked about saving your results when you close AnalyseGE (in which case you won’t see this closing dialog when you close AnalyseGE). We are grateful to James Giesecke and Mark Horridge for suggesting this.

Version 2.84 (January 2007)

On the TABmate form (within a TAB file), if you hold down the Alt key (or the middle mouse button) and pass the mouse over any variable, coefficient or set, a hint appears showing the declaration (definition) of that item. We are grateful to Davis Cook for suggesting this feature and to Mark Horridge for implementing it in TABmate (and hence in AnalyseGE).

Version 2.80 (December 2004)

You can select an expression (one or more terms) in an Equation or on the RHS of a Formula, and then ask AnalyseGE to decompose the selected expression.

Toggle names used when doing an intelligent decomposition now make it clear when an expression is involved. Then the toggle name begins with "e1_" or "e2_" etc.

If the Solution file you are loading was produced by Release 9 (or later) of GEMPACK, AnalyseGE reads the Solution file directly and extracts the TAB file, TABLO STI file and Command file directly from it. AnalyseGE does not need to run SLTOHT to convert the Solution file to a Header Array file, nor to run TEXTBI to extract the TAB, TABLO STI and Command files in this case.

When the Solution file you are loading was produced by Release 9 (or later) of GEMPACK, you can view the Accuracy Summary information from the original simulation via the View menu item on the AnalyseGE form.

When levels results are shown for a variable which is a change variable, you see the percentage change at toggle "PercentChng". [Previously you saw the change at toggle "Changes".]

You can now see the values of integer Coefficients with 3 or more arguments.

Version 2.70 (March 2004)

This version of AnalyseGE supports Postsim statements in TAB files. Such statements will be introduced in Release 9 of GEMPACK. When you evaluate an expression from the TABmate form, the software knows whether or not the statement the expression occurs in is a Postsim statement, and this may affect the results you see. If the TAB file you open has any postsim statements, there are two Evaluate buttons on the AnalyseGE form, one for calculating pre-simulation values and the other for calculating post-simulation values.

As part of this, what was the Front menu item on the TABmate form is now called the AnalyseGE menu item. Added to this menu are options you can use to indicate whether or not you want to evaluate pre-simulation or post-simulation values of expressions.

Version 2.60 (December 2003)

If you click on a variable in the TABmate form and then click on the Gloss button, TABmate will highlight the statement(s) where the variable appears on the left-hand of an "=" sign. Usually, this will be the equation that defines the variable. I am grateful to Vlad Manole for suggesting this feature and to Mark Horridge for implementing it.

AnalyseGE can be used at the command line to load variable values, coefficient values and the closure from separate files.

Version 2.50 (September 2003)

This allows you to load a subtotal result (rather than the cumulative solution) and analyse that.

You can evaluate logical expressions such as “(all,c,com) coef1(c) = 2”.

Version 2.41 (October 2002)

New and updated versions of the hands-on introductions (ie, tutorials) to AnalyseGE are now available. A hands-on introduction to AnalyseGE via a Stylized Johansen simulation is now available. An updated version of the hands-on introduction to AnlayseGE via GTAP simulations is now available.

Version 2.4 (August 2002)

Updated procedures for location of Keep and Temp directories. Added Diagnostic Information (under Options menu).

Version 2.3 (April 2002)

You can load a solution which was obtained by modifying the equations of a model whose LHS Matrix was structurally singular.

Version 2.2 (March 2002)

You can load a CVL file from a model which contains equations to analyse why a simulation crashed.

CVL and SLC files can contain the values of system-initiated coefficients (the ones created by TABLO when you do condensation).

The default location of the Keep and Temp directories used by this software has been changed.

Version 2.1 (February 2002)

When you load a Solution file, you can choose to load either pre-simulation Coefficient values (SLC file) or post-simulation Coefficient values (UDC file) or the Average of these (AVC file).

The operators PROD, MAXS and MINS, and the functions TRUNC, ROUND0 and ROUNDB, (all introduced in Release 8 of GEMPACK) can be handled.

Version 2.0 (December 2001)

The values of integer coefficients are now available.

Expressions containing conditions can now be accessed and evaluated.

Expressions containing Set Mappings can now be accessed and evaluated.

Expressions containing functions recognised by GEMPACK in TABLO Input files can now be accessed and evaluated. [Note that you only have to click inside the function name to get the function evaluated since then AnalyseGE extends the selection to include the whole function and its arguments.]

Expressions containing the $POS function can now be evaluated.

AnalyseGE can now be used to examine the values of Coefficients and expressions from data-manipulation TABLO Input files. You can do this if you load a Coefficient Values (CVL) file instead of a Solution file into AnalyseGE.

Version 1.4 (June 2001)

Numerical information relating to Complementarity statements is now shown.
