A comprehensive overview of Monte Carlo simulation that explores the latest topics, techniques, and real-world applications. More and more of today's numerical problems found in engineering and finance are solved through Monte Carlo methods. The heightened popularity of these me…
"This handbook is essential for solving numerical problems in mathematics, computer science, and engineering. The methods presented are similar to finite elements but more adept at solving analytic problems with singularities over irregularly shaped yet analytically described re…
"Offering a unique balance between applications and calculations, Monte Carlo Methods and Models in Finance and Insurance incorporates the application background of finance and insurance with the theory and applications of Monte Carlo methods. It presents recent methods and algo…
"Discrete optimization problems are everywhere, from traditional operations research planning problems, such as scheduling, facility location, and network design; to computer science problems in databases; to advertising issues in viral marketing. Yet most such problems are NP-h…
"Many important problems in engineering and science are modeled by nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). A new trend in PDEs, called structure-preserving numerical methods, has recently developed. This book is devoted to one such technique, called the discrete variati…
Numerical Methods using MATLAB, 3rd edition is an extensive reference offering hundreds of useful and important numerical algorithms that can be implemented into MATLAB for a graphical interpretation to help researchers analyze a particular outcome. Many worked examples are give…
The MATLAB® programming environment is often perceived as a platform suitable for prototyping and modeling but not for ""serious"" applications. One of the main complaints is that MATLAB is just too slow. Accelerating MATLAB Performance aims to correct this perception by describ…
