A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

This book discusses linear and nonlinear programming, dynamic programming, integer programming and stochastic programming. Examples taken from actual engineering designs demonstrate each method and showing how to maximize the desired benefit and minimize the negative aspects of project design. Computer programs are included for solving both linear and nonlinear problems.
