Description for Handbook on Modelling for Discrete Optimization
Hardback. This book demonstrates and details the pervasive nature of Discrete Optimization. While the subject's applications cut across an incredibly wide range of activities, many of the applications are only known to specialists. This handbook aims to correct this. Editor(s): Appa, Gautam; Pitsoulis, Leonidas S.; Williams, H. Paul. Series: International Series in Operations Research & Management Science. Num Pages: 434 pages, 86 black & white illustrations, 37 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBU. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 25. Weight in Grams: 1790.
The primary reason for producing this book is to demonstrate and commu nicate the pervasive nature of Discrete Optimisation. It has applications across a very wide range of activities. Many of the applications are only known to specialists. Our aim is to rectify this. It has long been recognized that ''modelling" is as important, if not more important, a mathematical activity as designing algorithms for solving these discrete optimisation problems. Nevertheless solving the resultant models is also often far from straightforward. Although in recent years it has become viable to solve many large scale discrete optimisation problems some problems remain ... Read more
