Ramsey Theory
This book explores the theory’s history, recent developments, and some promising future directions through invited surveys written by prominent researchers in the field. The first three surveys provide historical background on the subject; the last three address Euclidean Ramsey theory and related coloring problems. In addition, open problems posed throughout the volume and in the concluding open problem chapter will appeal to graduate students and mathematicians alike.
Handbook on Project Management and Scheduling Vol.1
Due to the increasing importance of product differentiation and collapsing product life cycles, a growing number of value-adding activities in the industry and service sector are organized in projects. Projects come in many forms, often taking considerable time and consuming a large amount of resources. The management and scheduling of projects represents a challenging task, and project performance may have a considerable impact on an organization's competitiveness. This handbook presents state-of-the-art approaches to project management and scheduling. More than sixty contributions written by leading experts in the field provide an authoritative survey of recent developments. The book serves as a comprehensive reference, both, for researchers and project management professionals. The handbook consists of two volumes. Volume 1 is devoted to single-modal and multi-modal project scheduling. Volume 2 presents multi-project problems, project scheduling under uncertainty and vagueness, managerial approaches and a separate part on applications, case studies and information systems.

Evaluation and Decision Models with Multiple Criteria
This book showcases a large variety of multiple criteria decision applications (MCDAs), presenting them in a coherent framework provided by the methodology chapters and the comments accompanying each case study. The chapters describing MCDAs invite the reader to experiment with MCDA methods and perhaps develop new variants using data from these case studies or other cases they encounter, equipping them with a broader perception of real-world problems and how to overcome them with the help of MCDAs.
Algorithmic Applications in Management
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Algorithmic Applications in Management, AAIM 2005, held in Xian, China in June 2005. The 46 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 140 submissions. Among the topics addressed are approximation, complexity, automatic timetabling, scheduling algorithms, game-theoretic algorithms, economic equilibrium computation, graph computations, network algorithms, computational geometry, combinatorial optimization, sequencing, network management, data mining, Knapsack problems, etc.
6G Urban Innovation
This book presents the 6G powered integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Digital Twin (DT) technology for sustainable smart cities. In the context of smart cities, 6G, AI and DT hold enormous potential for transformation by boosting city infrastructure and planning, streamlining healthcare facilities, and improving transportation. 6G offers high speed and low latency seamless transfer of vast amounts of data which, when analyzed with sophisticated AI models, enhance the decision-making capabilities for smart city infrastructure and urban planning. DT technology, through continuous monitoring and virtual modeling of urban ecosystems, enables predictive maintenance for energy distribution, water management and waste management in a smart city landscape for environmental sustainability. 6G Urban Innovation covers the 6G technological innovations, trends and concerns, as well as practical challenges encountered in the implementation of AI and DT for transforming smart cities for a sustainable future.
Port Business
Port Business is essential reading for all those with an interest in trade and transportation and the role of ports in the global supply chain. It discusses the various types of ports in existence, identifies the major ports per category, analyzes what the key business drivers are, describes their governance, how they are managed, which trends influence them, and what kind of impact they have on supply chains. Dr. Jürgen Sorgenfrei uses his significant consulting and project development experience within the international ports, shipping, rail & logistics sector, and in global economics, trade, analytics, and forecasting as well as in intermodal hinterland transport to provide this comprehensive overview of port management. The book is a combination of a strong background in principles and practical knowledge and is an indispensable resource for those interested in maritime economics. .
Just-in-Time Manufacturing
This book addresses three fundamental building blocks of JIT, namely setting up a JIT production system, improving quality, and instilling total employee involvement. JIT implementation issues are covered and supported by an industrial case study.
