Overview: The determination of optimal financing and investment strategies for corporations and the economy are important for efficient allocation of resources in the ecomony.Includes supplementary material: This book reports initial efforts in providing some useful extensions in - nancial modeling; further work is necessary to complete the research agenda. The demonstrated extensions in this book in the computation and modeling of optimal control in finance have shown the need and potential for further areas of study in financial modeling. Potentials are in both the mathematical structure and

Overview: In this book we give an overview of modeling techniques used to describe computer systems to mathematical optimization tools. We give a brief introduction to various classes of mathematical optimization frameworks with special focus on mixed integer linear programming which provides a good balance between solver time and expressiveness. We present four detailed case studies -- instruction set customization, data center resource management, spatial architecture scheduling, and resource allocation in tiled architectures -- showing how MILP can be used and quantifying by how much it out

Overview: The Symposium on Organ and Species Specificity in Chemical Carcinogenesis was held March 1981 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Dr. James Miller concluded this Symposium with these remarks: "Without a doubt all of us would agree this has been a very successful symposium in illustrating a very wide range of chemical, stereochemical, biochemical, metabolic, molecular, and biological factors in chemical carcinogenesis. I think it is noteworthy that many of the discussions have dealt with pharmacodynamic, or toxicodynamic, factors that can influence the biological activities of the extremely w

Overview: This volume reproduces some important contributions to regional and urban economics made by Noboru Sakashita - one of the lead­ ing scholars in this field. Since graduation from the University of Tokyo, Noboru Sakashita has been teaching and advancing the re­ search at Hokkaido University, Tohoku University, Osaka University and the‘ University of Tsukuba. The career of Noboru Sakashita as a regional and urban econo­ mist started in 1965 when he visited the University of Pennsylvania‘s Regional Science Department as a Fulbright scholar. While staying there, he concentrated on researc

Overview: Fundierte Einführung in das Thema.-.Konstruktives Beispiel als durchgängiger Leitfaden.-Übungsaufgaben mit Lösungen, Tabellen und Abbildungen.-.CD mit allen erforderlichen Programmen.-.Arbeitsbuch für.Neuentwickelte Software ist heute oft schon zum Zeitpunkt Ihrer Einführung veraltet. Einen Ausweg aus dieser Krise bietet der objektorientierte Ansatz: Anwendungen werden als Software-Objekte modelliert, die sowohl die Eigenschaften als auch das Verhalten von Objekten aus der realen Welt beschreiben. Solche Objekte sind gekapselt und verbergen die innere Komplexität hinter einer öffentl

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Prominent investigators and clinicians summarize in a balanced blend of fundamental science, basic research, experimental therapeutics, and early clinical experiences, what is known about oncogenes and oncogenesis, and describe how that knowledge can be used to treat the cancer. The contributors explain how, why, and under what conditions certain proteins acquire the ability to transform eukaryotic cells, and detail the crucial biological consequences of this oncogenic transformation, particularly for cellular mitogenesis, survival, differentiation, m

Overview: Objective-C Programmer‘s Reference is a swift and to-the-point reference for professional programmers to the language of choice in developing applications for iOS and OSX..Objective-C Programmer‘s Reference. provides the tools necessary to write software in Objective-C—the language of choice for developing iOS and OS X applications.

Overview: There is no obvious or direct competition.Comprehensive coverage of the subject of optical anomalies.Includes supplementary material: .Optically Anomalous Crystals begins with an historical introduction covering the contributions of Brewster, Biot, Mallard, Brauns, Tamman, and many other distinguished crystallographers. From this follows a tutorial in crystal optics. Further chapters discuss the two main mechanisms of optical dissymmetry: 1. the piezo-optic effect, and 2. the kinetic ordering of atoms. The text then tackles complex, inhomogeneous crystals, and the complex optical pro

Overview: Around 30 years ago the transition metal chemistry received great impulses. In the focus have been reactions of nickel and cobalt and herein especially their carbonyls. Also industrial processes have been developed. When the technical oxidation of ethylene with palladium chloride had been discovered, and a great number oflaboratory reactions, many groups have turned towards this subject. Apart from two important industrial processes - acetaldehyde and vinylacetate from ethylene - a great number of conversions and catalytic reactions with palladium compounds have been researched. Thei

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the IFIP WG 11.4 International Workshop on Open Problems in Network Security, iNetSec 2015, held in Zurich, Switzerland, in October 2015. iNetSec is the main workshop of the IFIP working group WG 11.4; its objective is to present and discuss open problems and new research directions on all aspects related to network security. . The 9 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 13 submissions. They were organized in topical sections

Overview: This book which is the outcome of a NATO-Advanced Study Institute on Mod­ elling the Ocean Circulation and Geochemical Tracer Transport is concerned with using models to infer the ocean circulation. Understanding our climate is one of the major problems of the late twentieth century. The possible climatic changes resulting from the rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide and other trace gases are of primary interest and the ocean pla. ys a ma. jor role in determining the magnitude, temporal evolution and regional distribution of those changes. Because of the poor observational basis the o

Overview: .In the first part of this book, we treat interacting and small open economies. We do this from an historical perspective, starting from the Classical model of the gold standard and the specie-flow mechanism and aim to show there that the Dornbusch IS-LM-PC approach, with or without rational expectations, can still be considered as a (if not the) core contribution to contemporaneous open economy macrodynamics, also on the level of structural macroeconometric model building. In the second part we then extend this analysis to the incorporation of more disequilibrium on the real markets
