Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This unique book presents the discretization of continuous systems and implicit mapping dynamics of periodic motions to chaos in continuous nonlinear systems. The stability and bifurcation theory of fixed points in discrete nonlinear dynamical systems is reviewed, and the explicit and implicit maps of continuous dynamical systems are developed through the single-step and multi-step discretizations. The implicit dynamics of period-m solutions in discrete nonlinear systems are discussed. The book also offers a generalized approach to finding analytical and numerical solutions of stable and unstable periodic flows to chaos in nonlinear systems with/without time-delay. The bifurcation trees of periodic motions to chaos in the Duffing oscillator are shown as a sample problem, while the discrete Fourier series of periodic motions and chaos are also presented. The book offers a valuable resource for university students, professors, researchers and engineers in the fields of applied mathematics, physics, mechanics, control systems, and engineering.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Thisbook mainly aims at solving the problems in both cooperative and competitivemulti-agent systems (MASs), exploring aspects such as how agents caneffectively learn to achieve the shared optimal solution based on their localinformation and how they can learn to increase their individual utility byexploiting the weakness of their opponents. The book describes fundamental andadvanced techniques of how multi-agent systems can be engineered towards thegoal of ensuring fairness, social optimality, and individual rationality; awide range of further relevant topics are also covered both theoretically andexperimentally. The book will be beneficial to researchers in the fields ofmulti-agent systems, game theory and artificial intelligence in general, as wellas practitioners developing practical multi-agent systems.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book presents detailed descriptions of chaos for continuous-time systems. It is the first-ever book to consider chaos as an input for differential and hybrid equations. Chaotic sets and chaotic functions are used as inputs for systems with attractors: equilibrium points, cycles and tori. The findings strongly suggest that chaos theory can proceed from the theory of differential equations to a higher level than previously thought. The approach selected is conducive to the in-depth analysis of different types of chaos. The appearance of deterministic chaos in neural networks, economics and mechanical systems is discussed theoretically and supported by simulations. As such, the book offers a valuable resource for mathematicians, physicists, engineers and economists studying nonlinear chaotic dynamics.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Principles of Compilers: A New Approach to Compilers Including the Algebraic Method' introduces the ideas of the compilation from the natural intelligence of human beings by comparing similarities and differences between the compilations of natural languages and programming languages. The notation is created to list the source language, target languages, and compiler language, vividly illustrating the multilevel procedure of the compilation in the process. The book thoroughly explains the LL(1) and LR(1) parsing methods to help readers to understand the how and why. It not only covers established methods used in the development of compilers, but also introduces an increasingly important alternative - the algebraic formal method. This book is intended for undergraduates, graduates and researchers in computer science.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The first derivative of a particle coordinate means its velocity, the second means its acceleration, but what does a fractional order derivative mean Where does it come from, how does it work, where does it lead to The two-volume book written on high didactic level answers these questions. Fractional Derivatives for Physicists and Engineers- The first volume contains a clear introduction into such a modern branch of analysis as the fractional calculus. The second develops a wide panorama of applications of the fractional calculus to various physical problems.
