Management science is a di scipl ine dedicated to the development of techniques that enable decision makers to cope with the increasing complexity of our world.
The application of BEM in all fields of engineering and science has progressed at an accelerate rate since the first book on the method appeared in the late seventies.
Ever since the beginning of modern probability theory in the seventeenth century there has been a continuous debate over the meaning and applicability of the concept of probability.
The craft of designing mathematical models of dynamic objects offers a large number of methods to solve subproblems in the design, typically parameter estimation, order determination, validation, model reduc- tion, analysis of identifiability, sensi tivi ty and accuracy.
