Advances in Optimization and Parallel Computing - Honorary Volume on the Occasion of J.B.Rosen's 70th Birthday (Hardcover)

Optimization and parallel computing are areas of research characterized by an extremely rapid development during the last three decades. The main purpose of this volume is to show the reader a variety of optimization methods and related aspects of parallel computing techniques. The diversity of topics discussed in the book cover a broad spectrum of recent developments in these areas. This book, which grew out of many contributions given by distinguished researchers in honour of the 70th birthday of J.B. Rosen, one of the pioneers in optimization, is intended to serve as a guide for recent literature and as a stimulant to further research on optimization and parallel computing.
