商品描述

The text applies the mathematical modeling process by formulating, building, solving, analyzing, and criticizing mathematical models. Scenarios are developed within the scope of the problem solving process. The text focuses on discrete dynamical systems, optimization techniques, single-variable unconstrained optimization and applied problems, and numerical search methods. Additional coverage includes multivariable unconstrained and constrained techniques. Linear algebra techniques to model and solve problems such as the Leontief model, advanced regression technique include nonlinear, logistics and Poisson are covered. Game Theory, the Nash equilibrium, Nash arbitration are also included.

Bill Bauldry, Prof of Mathematics at Appalachian State University, received his PhD in Approximation Theory from Ohio State in 1985. He joined the math dept at Appalachian State in 1986 where he served two terms as dept chair and received the Arts & Sciences Jimmy Smith Outstanding Service Award in 2007. Bill has authored texts on calculus, linear algebra, and his most recent, an Intro to Real Analysis including Lebesgue Measure. He has published many papers on pedagogy and technology, often using Maple, and has been the PI of several NSF-funded projects incorporating technology and modeling into math courses. He has been a judge in COMAP's Math Contest in Modeling (MCM) since 2002, and currently serves as the Assoc Director of the MCM.
