R & gams
I am so surprised to hear "gams is specialised in dealing with huge, hevy-weight linear and non-linear modelling ". That is not what I know of about GAM, which means generalized additive model.

At office I have been introduced by another company to new, complex energy forecasting models using gams as the basic software. I have been told by the company offering the models that gams is specialised in dealing with huge, hevy-weight linear and non-linear modelling (see an example in http://www.gams.com/modtype/index.htm) and they say it is almost the only option for doing it. I would like to know your opinion on the subject and, above all, if R can be an effective alternative and to what extent, if any. Thanks Vittorio
