The Putnam Competition has since 1928 been providing a challenge to gifted college mathematics students. This book, the second of the Putnam Competition volumes, contains problems with their solutions for the years 1965-1984. Additional solutions are presented for many of the problems. Included is an essay on recollections of the first Putnam Exam by Herbert Robbins, as well as appendices listing the winning teams and students from 1965 through 1984. This volume offers the problem solver an enticing sample of challenging problems and their solutions. In 1980, the MAA published the first William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition book, covering the contest from 1938 to 1964. In 2002 the third of the Putnam problem books appeared, covering the years 1985 through 2000. All three of these books belong on the bookshelf of students, teachers, and all interested in problem solving.
Decision Support Systems: Issues and Challenges covers the proceedings of the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) International Task Force Meeting. The book reviews papers that tackle issues about decision support systems (DSS). Comprised of 17 chapters, the book organizes the chapters according to the topic of discussion, including framework, resource discipline, application experience, and issues for the future in DSS. The opening chapter is an introduction to the main topic of the book. Chapter 2 discusses frameworks for research on decision support systems, and Chapter 3 covers the decision support systems. The fourth chapter deals with organizational science con...
This comprehensive compendium provides information on nearly every US doctoral program in physics and astronomy, plus data on most major master's programmes in these fields. Information on many major Canadian programmes is also included. In addition, the Graduate Programs directory lists a substantial number of related-field departments, including materials science, electrical and nuclear engineering, meteorology, medical and chemical physics, geophysics, and oceanography. This 24th annual edition contains information valuable to students planning graduate study and faculty advisors, including each programme's research expenditures and sources of support. A number of helpful appendices make navigating the directory a simple task.
