The conference, coorganized by INRIA and Ecole des Mines de Paris, focuses on Discrete Event Systems (DES) and is aimed at engineers, scientists and mathematicians working in the fields of Automatic Control, Operations Research and Statistics who are interested in the modelling, analysis and optimization of DES. Various methods such as Automata theory, Petri nets, etc. are proposed to describe and analyze such systems. Comparison of these different mathematical approaches and the global confrontation of theoretical approaches with applications in manufacturing, telecommunications, parallel...

In "The Bible of Options Strategies," "Second Edition, " legendary options trader Guy Cohen systematically presents today s most effective strategies for trading options: "how" and "why" they work, "when" they're appropriate and inappropriate, and "how" to use each one responsibly and with confidence. Updated throughout, this edition contains new chapters assessing the current options landscape, discussing margin collateral issues, and introducing Cohen s exceptionally valuable OVI indicators. " The Bible of Options Strategies, Second Edition" is practical from start to finish: modular, easy...

The focus of the present volume is stochastic optimization of dynamical systems in discrete time where - by concentrating on the role of information regarding optimization problems - it discusses the related discretization issues.
