In the past 10 to 15 years, the quantum leap inunderstanding of nonlinear dynamics has radically changedthe frame of reference of physicists contemplating suchsystems.

Diverse areas of physics and its applications deal with wave scattering at rough surfaces: optics, acoustics, remote sensing, radio astronomy, physics of solids, diffraction theory, radio and wave-propagation techniques, etc.

The chapter on statistical-physics simulations has been enlarged, mainly by a dis- cussion of multispin coding techniques for the Ising model (bit-by-bit parallel oper- ations).

One of the great inteJlectual cha1lenges for the next few decades is the question of brain organization.

Modern computing tools like Maple (symbolic computation) and Matlab (a numeric computation and visualization program) make it possible to easily solve realistic nontrivial problems in scientific computing.

Graduate students who want to become familiar with advanced computational strategies in classical and quantum dynamics will find here both the fundamentals of a standard course and a detailed treatment of the time-dependent oscillator, Chern-Simons mechanics, the Maslov anomaly and the Berry phase, together with many worked examples throughout the text.

Classical irreversible thermodynamics, as developed by Onsager, Prigogine and many other authors, is based on the local-equilibrium hypothesis.

The mysteries of the human mind have fascinated scientists and philosophers alike for centuries.

UNIX achieved its widespread propagation, its penetration of the UNIX history university domain, and its reach into research and industry due to its early dissemination by AT&T to all interested parties at almost no cost and as source code.

The experimental discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) at the end of 1981 by Tsui, Stormer and Gossard was absolutely unexpected since, at this time, no theoretical work existed that could predict new struc- tures in the magnetotransport coefficients under conditions representing the extreme quantum limit.

Long run aspects of environmental protection and of the useof resources areanalyzed within a planning model.

Appropriately for a book having the title "e;Computer Simulation Methods in Theoretical Physics"e;, this book begins with a disclai- mer.

A basic skill in probability is practically demanded nowadays in many bran- ches of optics, especially in image science.
