Multiobjective Optimization

  • Publisher: Springer

Multiobjective optimization deals with solving problems having not only one, but multiple, often conflicting, criteria. Such problems can arise in practically every field of science, engineering and business, and the need for efficient and reliable solution methods is increasing. The task is challenging due to the fact that, instead of a single optimal solution, multiobjective optimization results in a number of solutions with different trade-offs among criteria, also known as Pareto optimal or efficient solutions. Hence, a decision maker is needed to provide additional preference information and to identify the most satisfactory solution. Depending on the paradigm used, such information may...

Urban food systems governance

This report presents insights and emerging lessons on food systems governance from the experience of nine cities that have developed urban food interventions – Baltimore, Belo Horizonte, Lima, Medellín, Nairobi, Quito, Seoul, Shanghai and Toronto – and draws on diverse sources of secondary information regarding the experiences of other cities throughout the world. It highlights entry points for the governance of urban food systems issues; common procedural and content-related considerations when addressing those issues; predominant governance models; and operational opportunities for future investment. Successful examples can encourage other local governments to adapt new approaches and innovate within their own context. Every city will need to navigate the political economy to customize their choices and interventions to local circumstances, priority problems and economic opportunities.

The unusual feature of this book is that it compares the system of corporate governance operating in Australia with that operating in the UK, while at the same time also looking carefully at US, German and Japanese experiences. The significance of the subject matter of this book lies in the fact that institutional investors collectively hold a very large proportion of the equity capital of the UK corporate sector and a sizeable proportion of the equity capital of the Australian equivalent. In addition domestic companies occupy an extremely significant position in the UK economy and a significant one in the Australian economy.

Introduzioni di Alberto Cappi e Attilio Scarpellini Traduzione di Ferdinando Martini Edizioni integrali Grande affresco dell’epoca postnapoleonica e al tempo stesso appassionato romanzo d’amore, Il rosso e il nero fu pubblicato nel 1830. La vicenda di Julien Sorel, giovane di umili natali, intelligente, sensibile, esuberante, ambizioso, che cerca di farsi largo tra la mediocrità imperante nella Francia della Restaurazione sfruttando i favori di due donne, di cui poi si innamora, è lo specchio di un tempo difficile, di una realtà ostile, di un potere politico ingiusto, di un inarrestabile svilimento morale, di una inaccettabile tirannia dell’opinione pubblica.

NOW A MAJOR SKY ATLANTIC SERIES From the international bestselling author of Gomorrah, this searing exposé reveals how dirty money and the drug trade are at the heart of our lives, our economy, and our world In many countries, 'zero zero' or double zero flour is the finest, best flour on the market. Among narco-traffickers, then, 'zero zero zero' is the nickname for the very purest, highest quality grade of cocaine. From Mexican cartels to Milanese financiers, Guatemalan mercenaries to Ukrainian warlords, Calabrian traffickers to the traders in Wall Street and London who wash the money clean, this is an unforgettable story that goes around the globe and through every level of society to show the extent to which the drug trade affects us all. Weaving together stories, interviews, wiretaps and his own experience of the criminal underworld, Saviano reveals an international narco-state, which, in the wake of the financial crisis, is now the pillar of our global economy. It is the perfect synthesis of modern capitalism, where everything is for the taking - and all is consumed, ruined and destroyed.
