Optimization-Theory and Practice Hardback
by Wilhelm Forst, Dieter Hoffmann
Part of the Springer Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics and Technology series
Hardback
Description
Optimization is a field important in its own right but is also integral to numerous applied sciences, including operations research, management science, economics, finance and all branches of mathematics-oriented engineering.
Constrained optimization models are one of the most widely used mathematical models in operations research and management science. This book gives a modern and well-balanced presentation of the subject, focusing on theory but also including algorithims and examples from various real-world applications.
The text is easy to read and accessible to anyone with a knowledge of multi-dimensional calculus, linear algebra and basic numerical methods.
Detailed examples and counter-examples are provided - as are exercises, solutions and helpful hints, and Matlab/Maple supplements. The intended readership is advanced undergraduates, graduates, and professionals in any of the applied fields.
