ISBN: 9781461396192 / Angielski / Miękka / 158 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych The starting point of this volume was a conference entitled "Progress in Mathematical Programming," held at the Asilomar Conference Center in Pacific Grove, California, March 1-4, 1987. The main topic of the conference was developments in the theory and practice of linear programming since Karmarkar's algorithm. There were thirty presentations and approximately fifty people attended. Presentations included new algorithms, new analyses of algorithms, reports on computational experience, and some other topics related to the practice of mathematical programming. Interestingly, most of the...

Mathematical Programming the State of the Art: Bonn 1982
ISBN: 9783642688768 / Angielski / Miękka / 658 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych In the late forties, Mathematical Programming became a scientific discipline in its own right. Since then it has experienced a tremendous growth. Beginning with economic and military applications, it is now among the most important fields of applied mathematics with extensive use in engineering, natural sciences, economics, and biological sciences. The lively activity in this area is demonstrated by the fact that as early as 1949 the first "Symposium on Mathe- matical Programming" took place in Chicago. Since then mathematical programmers from all over the world have gath- ered at the...

Networks: Optimisation and Evolution
ISBN: 9781107410725 / Angielski / Miękka / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Point-to-point vs hub-and-spoke. Questions of network design are real and involve many billions of dollars. Yet little is known about optimising design - nearly all work concerns optimising flow assuming a given design. This foundational book tackles optimisation of network structure itself, deriving comprehensible and realistic design principles. With fixed material cost rates, a natural class of models implies the optimality of direct source-destination connections, but considerations of variable load and environmental intrusion then enforce trunking in the optimal design, producing an...

Large-Scale Optimization with Applications: Part III: Molecular Structure and Optimization
ISBN: 9781461268703 / Angielski / Miękka / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych Many important molecular conformation problems, such as protein folding, are expressed as global minimization problems. It is the fact that local minimization is insufficient, that markedly differentiates this volume from the previous two. Unfortunately, global minimization problems that result from models of molecular conformation are usually intractable. For example, simple 1-dimensional versions of distance conformation problems are NP-hard. Nevertheless, there has been significant recent progress in the design of promising heuristic strategies (often involving the use of high- performance...

Linear Programming and Its Applications
ISBN: 9781461269823 / Angielski / Miękka / 266 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych The effectiveness of the algorithms of linear programming in solving problems is largely dependent upon the particular applications from which these problems arise. A first course in linear programming should not only allow one to solve many different types of problems in many different contexts but should provide deeper insights into the fields in which linear programming finds its utility. To this end, the emphasis throughtout Linear Programming and Its Applications is on the acquisition of linear programming skills via the algorithmic solution of small-scale problems both in the general...

Large-Scale Optimization with Applications: Part I: Optimization in Inverse Problems and Design
ISBN: 9781461273578 / Angielski / Miękka / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych Inverse problems and optimal design have come of age as a consequence of the availability of better, more accurate, and more efficient simulation packages. Many of these simulators, which can run on small workstations, can capture the complicated behavior of the physical systems they are modeling, and have become commonplace tools in engineering and science. There is a great desire to use them as part of a process by which measured field data are analyzed or by which design of a product is automated. A major obstacle in doing precisely this is that one is ultimately confronted with a...

Linear Programming: A Modern Integrated Analysis
ISBN: 9781461359777 / Angielski / Miękka / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Linear Programming: A Modern Integrated Analysis, both boundary (simplex) and interior point methods are derived from the complementary slackness theorem and, unlike most books, the duality theorem is derived from Farkas's Lemma, which is proved as a convex separation theorem. The tedium of the simplex method is thus avoided.
A new and inductive proof of Kantorovich's Theorem is offered, related to the convergence of Newton's method. Of the boundary methods, the book presents the (revised) primal and the dual simplex methods. An extensive discussion is given of the primal,...

Vector Variational Inequalities and Vector Equilibria: Mathematical Theories
ISBN: 9781461379850 / Angielski / Miękka / 526 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych In the fifties and sixties, several real problems, old and new, especially in Physics, Mechanics, Fluidodynamics, Structural Engi- neering, have shown the need of new mathematical models for study- ing the equilibrium of a system. This has led to the formulation of Variational Inequalities (by G. Stampacchia), and to the develop- ment of Complementarity Systems (by W.S. Dorn, G.B. Dantzig, R.W. Cottle, O.L. Mangasarian et al.) with important applications in the elasto-plastic field (initiated by G. Maier). The great advan- tage of these models is that the equilibrium is not necessarily the...

Foundations of Optimization
ISBN: 9781461426479 / Angielski / Miękka / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych Optimization is everywhere. It is human nature to seek the best option among all that are available. Nature, too, seems to be guided by optimizationmany laws of nature have a variational character. Among geometric gures in the plane with a xed perimeter, the circle has the greatest area. Such isoperim- ric problems involving geometric gures date back to ancient Greece. Fermat's principle, discovered in 1629, stating that the tangent line is horizontal at a minimum point, seems to have in uenced the development of calculus. The proofs of Rolle's theorem and the mean value theorem in calculus...
