E-Book (pdf) Nonlinear Integer Programming von Duan Li, Xiaoling Sun

Nonlinear Integer Programming Duan Li, Xiaoling Sun E-Books Englisch

A combination of both Integer Programming and Nonlinear Optimization, this is a powerful book that surveys the field and provides a state-of-the-art treatment of Nonlinear Integer Programming. It is the first book available on the subject. The book aims to bring the theoretical foundation and solution methods for nonlinear integer programming to students and researchers in optimization, operations research, and computer science.

Zusammenfassung
It is not an exaggeration that much of what people devote in their hfe re solves around optimization in one way or another. On one hand, many decision making problems in real applications naturally result in optimization problems in a form of integer programming. On the other hand, integer programming has been one of the great challenges for the optimization research community for many years, due to its computational difficulties: Exponential growth in its computational complexity with respect to the problem dimension. Since the pioneering work of R. Gomory [80] in the late 1950s, the theoretical and methodological development of integer programming has grown by leaps and bounds, mainly focusing on linear integer programming. The past few years have also witnessed certain promising theoretical and methodological achieve ments in nonlinear integer programming. When the first author of this book was working on duality theory for n- convex continuous optimization in the middle of 1990s, Prof. Douglas J. White suggested that he explore an extension of his research results to integer pro gramming. The two authors of the book started their collaborative work on integer programming and global optimization in 1997. The more they have investigated in nonlinear integer programming, the more they need to further delve into the subject. Both authors have been greatly enjoying working in this exciting and challenging field.
