Sinossi

This reference offers both a basic introduction and advanced technical details of available mathematical and computing methods for modeling sustainable development, closing an exisiting gap in this field, as well as illustrating their use through case studies and examples. The methods and case studies presented here are targetted at sustainable development, although they have a wide range of other applications, including economics, medicine and control systems.

Recensione

Aus den Rezensionen:

"Marion Herschs Lehrbuch über mathematische Methoden dient der formalen Begründung von Entscheidungen zur nachhaltigen Entwicklung. Zum Einstieg diskutiert die Autorin den Nachhaltigkeitsbegriff, der in ihrem Verständnis auch Gender- und Menschenrechtsaspekte berücksichtigt. Damit verdeutlicht sie die Schwierigkeiten, die sich bei einer formalen Analyse der Nachhaltigkeit stellen ..."
