This book is the first easy-to-read text on nonsmooth optimization (NSO, not necessarily differentiable optimization). Solving these kinds of problems plays a critical role in many industrial applications and real-world modeling systems, for example in the context of image denoising, optimal...

A Boolean programming problem with a finite number of alternatives where initial coefficients (costs) of linear payoff functions are subject to perturbations is considered. We define robust solution as a feasible solution which for a given set of realizations of uncertain parameters guarantees...
