The management problems addressed in Adaptive Search and the Management of Logistic Systems stem from the recent changes in the logistics sector. Global competition and increasing consumer expectations are forcing industrial enterprises to reorganize their business processes to support better...

This book examines the mathematics, probability, statistics, and computational theory underlying neural networks and their applications. In addition to the theoretical work, the book covers a considerable range of neural network topics such as learning and training, neural network classifiers,...

This book is a primer to a computer-assited analysis system for mathematical programming models and solution called ANALYZE. ANALYZE is designed to provide computer assistance for analyzing linear programs and their solutions. Although this primer is self-contained, knowledge of linear...

Modeling by Object-Driven Linear Elemental Relations (MODLER) is a computer language for representing linear programming models, completely separate from instances defined by data realizations. It also includes representations of binary variables and logical constraints, which arise naturally in...
