Aims and Scope
Optimization has been expanding in all directions at an astonishing rate dur-
ing the last few decades. New algorithmic and theoretical techniques have
been developed, the diffusion into other disciplines has proceeded at a rapid
pace, and our knowledge of all aspects of the field has grown even more
profound. At the same time, one of the most striking trends in optimization
is the constantly increasing emphasis on the interdisciplinary nature of the
field. Optimization has been a basic tool in all areas of applied mathematics,
engineering, medicine, economics and other sciences.
The series Optimization and Its Applications publishes undergraduate
and graduate textbooks, monographs and state-of-the-art expository works
that focus on algorithms for solving optimization problems and also study
applications involving such problems. Some of the topics covered include
nonlinear optimization (convex and nonconvex), network flow problems,
stochastic optimization, optimal control, discrete optimization, multiobjec-
tive programming, description of software packages, approximation tech-
niques and heuristic approaches.
