This book addresses two-person zero-sum finite games in which the payoffs in any situation are expressed with fuzzy numbers. The purpose of this book is to develop a suite of effective and efficient linear programming models and methods for solving matrix games with payoffs in fuzzy numbers. Divided into six chapters, it discusses the concepts of solutions of matrix games with payoffs of intervals, along with their linear programming models an...

A collection of papers taken from the Second International Conference on Computational Physics, held in September 1993 in Asia. The conference sought to promote new technology, new ways of research, and new ways of thinking.

In real management situations, uncertainty is inherently present in decision making. As such, it is increasingly imperative to research and develop new theories and methods of fuzzy sets. Theoretical and Practical Advancements for Fuzzy System Integration is a pivotal reference source for the latest scholarly research on the importance of expressing and measuring fuzziness in order to develop effective and practical decision making models and ...

Virtual machines have been critical software systems for decades and now platforms such as Apple iOS, Google Android, and Microsoft Windows Phone all need them as primary application execution engines. This book provides a systematic description that combines high-level design and low-level implementations and integrates advanced academic topics and commercial solutions for industry. It presents two drastically different practical virtual mach...

Interference Cancellation Using Space-Time Processing and Precoding Design introduces original design methods to achieve interference cancellation, low-complexity decoding and full diversity for a series of multi-user systems. In multi-user environments, co-channel interference will diminish the performance of wireless communications systems. In this book, we investigate how to design robust space-time codes and pre-coders to suppress the co-c...

Civil engineering structures such as buildings, bridges, stadiums, and offshore structures play an import role in our daily life. However, constructing these structures requires lots of budget. Thus, how to cost-efficiently design structures satisfying all required design constraints is an important factor to structural engineers. Traditionally, mathematical gradient-based optimal techniques have been applied to the design of optimal structure...

Mit der Praxis des Wuji Yuan Gong zu beginnen ist der erste Schritt einer Reise zu unserem Ursprung.Unser Ursprung, unsere wahre Heimat, ist der Zustand, in dem man das Gefühl des vollkommenen Wohlseins erlebt. Dorthin zurückzukehren bedeutet, das wahre Selbst wieder zu entdecken - Einsicht zu erlangen in eine Ganzheit, die niemals verloren, sondern nur vergessen war.Immer zu Hause zu sein, ganz gleich wo man sich befindet - immer Ganzheit zu ...

Unser heutiges Leben entfernt sich immer weiter vom natürlichen Rhythmus, immer mehr Menschen leiden unter körperlichen wie seelischen Beschwerden, da die Bedeutung des Wechsels zwischen Tag und Nacht, der An- und Entspannung sowie der Aktivitäts- und Ruhephasen - auch im Hinblick auf unsere Organe - vernachlässigt wird. Die Traditionelle Chinesische Medizin (TCM) weiß seit Jahrtausenden um das Prinzip des ewigen Wandels und nutzt das Wechsels...

In China's unprecedented upsurge of construction since the late 1970s, one of the leading forces is the state-owned design institutes, which are distinguished by their associations with the central government. Taking CAG (China Architecture Design and Research Gruop), a renowned design institute as an example, this book summarizes the common and consistent features of the design practice of the institute in the post-Mao era, and analyzes an un...

The unique characteristics of radon make it very attractive for earth science studies, as it can migrate over large distances within the earth and the atmosphere, be measured with accuracy, and be used as a tracer for many environmental processes of interest. This book presents properties, applications and health aspects of radon. Some of the topics discussed include spatial and temporal variations of soil-radon activity in fault zones, beta a...

Turbulent drag reduction by additives has long been a hot research topic. This phenomenon is inherently associated with multifold expertise. Solutions of drag-reducing additives are usually viscoelastic fluids having complicated rheological properties. Exploring the characteristics of drag-reduced turbulent flows calls for uniquely designed experimental and numerical simulation techniques and elaborate theoretical considerations. Pertinently u...

The focus of this book is on establishing theories and methods of both decision and game analysis in management using intuitionistic fuzzy sets. It proposes a series of innovative theories, models and methods such as the representation theorem and extension principle of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, ranking methods of intuitionistic fuzzy numbers, non-linear and linear programming methods for intuitionistic fuzzy multi-attribute decision making a...

A coherent introduction to e-business. Features case studies of the transformation of various industries, including banking,...

Following the previous four annual conferences, the 5th Chinese Conference on Biometrics Recognition (Sinobiometrics 2004) was held in Guangzhou, China in December 2004. The conference this year was aimed at promoting the international exchange of ideas and providing an opportunity for keeping abreast of the latest developments in biometric algorithms, systems, and applications. The 1st Biometrics Verification Competition (BVC) on face, iris, ...
