The set of papers in this Handbook reflect the rich theory and wide range of applications of network models. Two of the most vibrant applications areas of network models are telecommunications and transportation. Several chapters explicitly model issues arising in these problem domains. Research on network models has been closely aligned with the field of computer science both in developing data structures for efficiently implementing network algorithms and in analyzing the complexity of network problems and algorithms. The basic structure underlying all network problems is a graph. Thus, historically, there have been strong ties between network models and graph theory.

Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science, 8: Network Routing

The papers in this volume consider a general area of study known as network routing. The underlying problems are conceptually simple, yet mathematically complex and challenging. How can we best route material or people from one place to another? Or, how can we best design a system (e.g. locate facilities) to provide services and goods as efficiently and equitably as possible?

Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science, 9: Finance

By

· UNKNOWN AUTHOR

The Handbook of Finance is a primary reference work for financial economics and financial modeling students, faculty and practitioners. The expository treatments are suitable for masters and PhD students, with discussions leading from first principles to current research, with reference to important research works in the area. The Handbook is intended to be a synopsis of the current state of various aspects of the theory of financial economics and its application to important financial problems. The coverage consists of thirty-three chapters written by leading experts in the field. The contributions are in two broad categories: capital markets and corporate finance.

Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science, 10: Stochastic Programming

Edited by A. Ruszczynski, and A. Shapiro

This handbook consists of 10 contributed chapters from various leaders in the field of stochastic programming. The first eight chapters are on fundamental theoretical aspects of stochastic programming, including modeling paradigms, decomposition algorithms, stability issues, and sampling approximations. In depth coverage of linear and integer recourse models as well as chance-constrained models is provided. The final two chapters are on applications of stochastic programming in the transportation and energy sectors.
Stochastic programming is a rapidly evolving field, and this handbook serves as an up-to-date reference for fundamental theoretical developments. The material is accessible with graduate level background in analysis, probability and optimization. Each chapter provides a thorough description of the basic results in the corresponding area.

Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science, 11: Supply Chain Management: Design, Coordination and Operation

Edited By

· A.G. de Kok, Eindhoven University of Technology, The Netherlands

· S.C. Graves, M.I.T., Cambridge, USA

Supply Chain Management (SCM) has been a very visible and influential research topic in the field of operations research (OR) over the course of the last decade of the 20th century. The problems and experiences that emerged from business practices have stimulated many researchers to contribute to a deeper understanding about underlying phenomena and causal relationships. SCM has also served as an important application area for OR methods and techniques.

Handbooks in Operations Research and Management Science: Volume 13:Simulation

Edited by

· Shane Henderson, School of Operations and Industrial Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA

· Barry Nelson, Department of Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL, USA

This Handbook is a collection of chapters on key issues in the design and analysis of computer simulation experiments on models of stochastic systems. The chapters are tightly focused and written by experts in each area. For the purpose of this volume “simulation” refers to the analysis of stochastic processes through the generation of sample paths (realization) of the processes. Attention focuses on design and analysis issues and the goal of this volume is to survey the concepts, principles, tools and techniques that underlie the theory and practice of stochastic simulation design and analysis. Emphasis is placed on the ideas and methods that are likely to remain an intrinsic part of the foundation of the field for the foreseeable future.
