Algorithms for Worst-Case Design and Applications to Risk Management
ISBN: 9780691091549 / Angielski / Twarda / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Recognizing that robust decision making is vital in risk management, this book provides concepts and algorithms for computing the best decision in view of the worst-case scenario. The main tool used is minimax, which ensures robust policies with guaranteed optimal performance that will improve further if the worst case is not realized. The applications considered are drawn from finance, but the design and algorithms presented are equally applicable to problems of economic policy, engineering design, and other areas of decision making. Critically, worst-case design addresses not... Recognizing that robust decision making is vital in risk management, this book provides concepts and algorithms for computing the best decision in ... |

Selected Topics on Continuous-Time Controlled Markov Chains and Markov Games
ISBN: 9781848168480 / Angielski / Twarda / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book concerns continuous-time controlled Markov chains, also known as continuous-time Markov decision processes. They form a class of stochastic control problems in which a single decision-maker wishes to optimize a given objective function. This book is also concerned with Markov games, where two decision-makers (or players) try to optimize their own objective function. Both decision-making processes appear in a large number of applications in economics, operations research, engineering, and computer science, among other areas.An extensive, self-contained, up-to-date analysis of basic...

Introduction to the Fractional Calculus of Variations
ISBN: 9781848169661 / Angielski / Twarda / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This invaluable book provides a broad introduction to the fascinating and beautiful subject of Fractional Calculus of Variations (FCV). In 1996, FVC evolved in order to better describe non-conservative systems in mechanics. The inclusion of non-conservatism is extremely important from the point of view of applications. Forces that do not store energy are always present in real systems. They remove energy from the systems and, as a consequence, Noether's conservation laws cease to be valid. However, it is still possible to obtain the validity of Noether's principle using FCV. The...

Efficient Algorithms for Infrastructure Networks: Planning Issues and Economic Impact
ISBN: 9781494252373 / Angielski / Miękka / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Currently, electricity and telecommunication network providers operate in a turbulent period. The market is open for competition and customer demand changes dramatically, facing the network providers with a huge challenge. Information is reaching us more and more digitally. Mobile and fixed telecommunication networks have to deal with this explosive growth of data traffic. For fixed networks this means that the default internet connection via ADSL (up to 8 Megabits per second) is no longer sufficient. The network operators work on the rollout of VDSL, where the fibre connection is brought to...
