This book groups material that was used for the Marrakech 2002 School on Delay Di?erential Equations and Applications. The school was held from September 9-21 2002 at the Semlalia College of Sciences of the Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakech, Morocco. 47 participants and 15 instructors originating from 21 countries attended the school.

Simulation and modeling contribute to a broad range of applications in computational science and robotics technology, often addressing important design and control problems. This book presents a selection of papers from the International Workshop on Simulation and Modeling related to Computational Science and Robotics Technology (SiMCTR 2011), held at Kobe University, Japan, in November 2011. The workshop provided a forum for discussing recent developments in the growing field of engineering science and mathematical sciences, and brought together a diverse group of researchers in these areas to share and compare the different approaches to simulation and modeling in computational science and robotics technology. The workshop was also aimed at establishing collaborative links between engineering researchers related to information and robotics technology (IRT) and applied mathematicians working in modeling and computational methods for design and control.
This volume contains a collection of papers delivered by the partici pants at the second Conference on Computation and Control held at Mon tana State University in Bozeman, Montana from August 1-7, 1990. The conference, as well as this proceedings, attests to the vitality and cohesion between the control theorist and the numerical analyst that was adver tised by the first Conference on Computation and Control in 1988. The proceedings of that initial conference was published by Birkhiiuser Boston as the first volume of this same series entitled Computation and Control, Proceedings of the Bozeman Conference, Bozeman, Montana, 1988. Control theory and numerical analysis are both, by their very ...
This book discusses the latest progresses and developments on complex systems research and intends to give an exposure to prospective readers about the theoretical and practical aspects of mathematical modelling, numerical simulation and agent-based modelling frameworks. The main purpose of this book is to emphasize a unified approach to complex systems analysis, which goes beyond to examine complicated phenomena of numerous real-life systems; this is done by investigating a huge number of components that interact with each other at different (microscopic and macroscopic) scales; new insights and emergent collective behaviours can evolve from the interactions between individual components an...
This volume is dedicated to the memory of Professor Stavros Busenberg of Harvey Mudd College, who contributed so greatly to this field during 25 years prior to his untimely death. It contains about 60 invited papers by leading researchers in the areas of dynamical systems, mathematical studies in ecology, epidemics, and physiology, and industrial mathematics. Anyone interested in these areas will find much of value in these contributions.
Franz Kappel and Japhet Buchanan never expected their friendship to be tested by the Third Reich. Friends from early childhood, the boys form an inseparable, brotherly bond. Growing up in a little German village, they escape most of the struggles of war until the day Japhet is banished from school for being a Jew, and later has a rib broken when other village boys beat him up. Franz learns he is putting himself in danger for spending so much time with Japhet but continues to stand up for his Jewish friend even at the risk to himself. Then one day their lives are shattered when they see first-hand that the price of being a Jew is dangerously high. With the war now on their doorsteps, Franz an...
Pioniere des biologischen Landbaus - was für Menschen sind das? Was trieb Landwirte dazu, auf viele künstliche, hochtechnisierte Hilfen für ihre Äcker, Felder, Weingärten und Tierherden zu verzichten und sich lieber Handarbeit und Kreislaufwirtschaft zuzuwenden? Diese und zahlreiche andere Fragen beantwortet Aurelia Jurtschitsch, wenn sie die vierundvierzig Lebensläufe im Dienste der Biolandwirtschaft skizziert. Sie bespricht auch die beiden ursprünglichen Methoden: die etwas ältere, biologisch-dynamische nach Dr. Rudolf Steiner und die organisch-biologische Wirtschaftsweise von Dr. Hans Müller und Dr. Hans-Peter Rusch. Zu Wort kommen nicht nur Praktiker draußen, sondern auch Wegbereiter in Forschung und Agrarpolitik, ohne die der Biolandbau wohl kaum seine heutige Verbreitung gefunden hätte.
