Paperback. Condition: Good. Optimization principles are of undisputed importance in modern design and system operation. They can be used for many purposes: optimal design of systems, optimal operation of systems, determination of performance limitations of systems, or simply the solution of sets of equations. While most books on optimization are limited to essentially one approach, this volume offers a broad spectrum of approaches, with emphasis on basic techniques from both classical and modern work.After an introductory chapter introducing those system concepts that prevail throughout optimization problems of all types, the author discusses the classical theory of minima and maxima (Chapter 2). In Chapter 3, necessary and sufficient conditions for relative extrema of functionals are developed from the viewpoint of the Euler-Lagrange formalism of the calculus of variations. Chapter 4 is restricted to linear time-invariant systems for which significant results can be obtained via transform methods with a minimum of computational difficulty. In Chapter 5, emphasis is placed on applied problems which can be converted to a standard problem form for linear programming solutions, with the fundamentals of convex sets and simplex technique for solution given detailed attention. Chapter 6 examines search techniques and nonlinear programming. Chapter 7 covers Bellman's principle of optimality, and finally, Chapter 8 gives valuable insight into the maximum principle extension of the classical calculus of variations.Designed for use in a first course in optimization for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, practicing engineers, and systems designers, this carefully written text is accessible to anyone with a background in basic differential equation theory and matrix operations. To help students grasp the material, the book contains many detailed examples and problems, and also includes reference sections for additional reading.…

Contents: Preface. 1 Mathematical Preliminaries. 2 Optimality Conditions for Unconstrained Optimization. 3 Least Squares. 4 The Gradient Method. 5 Newton s Method. 6 Convex Sets. 7 Convex Functions. 8 Convex Optimization. 10 Optimality Conditions for Linearly Constrained Problems. 11 The KKT Conditions. 12 Duality. Bibliographic Notes. Bibliography. Index. This book provides the foundations of the theory of nonlinear optimization as well as some related algorithms and presents a variety of applications from diverse areas of applied sciences. The author combines three pillars of optimization theoretical and algorithmic foundation, familiarity with various applications, and the ability to apply the theory and algorithms on actual problems and rigorously and gradually builds the connection between theory, algorithms, applications, and implementation. Readers will find: More than 170 theoretical, algorithmic, and numerical exercises that deepen and enhance the reader's understanding of the topics; Several subjects not typically found in optimization books for example, optimality conditions in sparsity-constrained optimization, hidden convexity, and total least squares; A large number of applications discussed theoretically and algorithmically, such as circle fitting, Chebyshev center, the Fermat Weber problem, denoising, clustering, total least squares, and orthogonal regression; and Theoretical and algorithmic topics demonstrated by the MATLAB® toolbox CVX and a package of m-files that is posted on the book s web site. This book is intended for graduate or advanced undergraduate students of mathematics, computer science, and electrical engineering as well as other engineering disciplines. The book will also be of interest to researchers. (jacket).…
