This book contains the contributions presented at the international workshop 'The Dynamics of Complex Urban Systems: an interdisciplinary approach' held in Ascona, Switzerland in November 2004. Experts from several disciplines outline a conceptual framework for modeling and forecasting the...

Dynamic Systems in Growth Models -- On Adequate Transversality Conditions for Infinite Horizon Optimal Control Problems-A Famous Example of Halkin -- Sequential Precision of Predictions in Models of Economic Growth -- High Order Precision Estimates in Algorithms for Solving Problems of Economic...

This book describes how to plan and design efficient logistics systems considering simultaneously all integral aspects of their operation, and how to evaluate economically existing or proposed systems. The approach, more physical than mathematical, requires little data

In this paper we formulate the Risk Management Control problem in the interest rate area as a constrained stochastic portfolio optimization problem. The utility that we use can be any continuous function and based on the viscosity theory, the unique solution of the problem is guaranteed. The...
