In many cases of  practical relevance, the optimization problem structure does not  warrant the global optimality of local solutions; hence, it is natural  to search for the globally best solution(s). \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eGlobal Optimization in Action\u003c\/em\u003e provides a comprehensive  discussion of adaptive partition strategies to solve global  optimization problems under very general structural requirements. A  unified approach to numerous known algorithms makes possible  straightforward generalizations and extensions, leading to efficient  computer-based implementations. A considerable part of the book is  devoted to applications, including some generic problems from  numerical analysis, and several case studies in environmental systems  analysis and management. The book is essentially self-contained and is  based on theauthor's research, in cooperation (on applications) with  a number of colleagues. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e Professors, students, researchers and other  professionals in the fields of operations research, management  science, industrial and applied mathematics, computer science,  engineering, economics and the environmental sciences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-06\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781441947512\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4757-2502-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 480\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44343288430732,"sku":"9781441947512","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781441947512.jpg?v=1775681503","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781441947512","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
