Description for Graphs, Dioids and Semirings
Paperback. Series: Operations Research/Computer Science Interfaces Series. Num Pages: 388 pages, 26 black & white illustrations, 12 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBV. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 21. Weight in Grams: 565.
The primary objective of this essential text is to emphasize the deep relations existing between the semiring and dioid structures with graphs and their combinatorial properties. It does so at the same time as demonstrating the modeling and problem-solving flexibility of these structures. In addition the book provides an extensive overview of the mathematical properties employed by "nonclassical" algebraic structures which either extend usual algebra or form a new branch of it.

Reviews for Graphs, Dioids and Semirings
From the reviews: "The authors carefully explain with examples what is meant by a canonically ordered monoid, semiring and dioid, and go on to show in the book the relevance of these algebraic structures to such classic operations research problems related to graphs and networks … . recommend this as a book to be added ...
