- Description
- The SHN file format, short for Shorten Compressed Audio File, is a type of compressed audio file developed for efficiently archiving high-quality digital audio. Shorten was one of the early lossless compression methods for audio, meaning it allows the exact original audio data to be reconstructed from the compressed data, without any loss in quality.
- Created by Paragon Decision Technology, AMB files are data files that contain identifier declarations, procedures, and core model functions. They can also be referred to as AIMMS (Advanced Integrated Multidimensional Modeling Software) Model files as they as based on AIMMS modeling proprietary language.
