Disjunctive Programming is a technique and a discipline initiated by the author in the early 1970's, which has become a central tool for solving nonconvex optimization problems like pure or mixed inte
This book is an elegant and rigorous presentation of integer programming, exposing the subject’s mathematical depth and broad applicability. Special attention is given to the theory behind the algorit
To create a complete computing Bayesian framework, a new modeling methodology is needed to build probabilistic models; new inference algorithms are required to automate probabilistic calculus; and new
Distributed Programming: Theory and Practice presents a practical and rigorous method to develop distributed programs that correctly implement their specifications. The method also covers how to write
Kenneth Louden and Kenneth Lambert's new edition of PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES: PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE, 3E gives advanced undergraduate students an overview of programming languages through general princi
Perinatal factors are critical in the 'programming' of behavioral, endocrine and immunologic outcomes of adult life. Exposure to many factors in utero can drive fetal development along specific trajec
S is a high-level language for manipulating, analysing and displayingdata. It forms the basis of two highly acclaimed and widely used dataanalysis software systems, the commercial S-PLUSR and the Open
Having given away the answer in the subtitle, Langdon (U. of Birmingham, England) explains the nuts and bolts of the automatic creation of program code that actually includes stored data, which previo
By now, Scheme is a well-established programming language and is finding increasing popularity in programming courses for undergraduates. Its expressive capabilities are matched by a simplicity of lan
Since the early 1990s, genetic programming (GP) a discipline whose goal is to enable the automatic generation of computer programs has emerged as one of the most promising paradigms for fast, producti
Provides a detailed introduction to writing 32-bit Windows applications using C++ and the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) library. The text describes the Windows architecture, shows how MFC works, co
Stochastic Programming is the science that provides us with tools to design and control stochastic systems with the aid of mathematical programming techniques. It is on the border line of statistics a
