From the beginning of the last decade we have witnessed a revolution in computer technology and an explosion in user-friendly applications.This revolution is still continuing today with low-cost personal computer systems that rival the performance of expensive workstations. This technological prowess should be brought to bear on the...
With the advent of sophisticated general programming environments like Mathematica, the task of developing new models of metabolism and visualizing their responses has become accessible to students of biochemistry and the life sciences in general. Modelling Metabolism with Mathematica presents the approaches, methods, tools, and algorithms...
Calculus has been used in solving many scientific and engineering problems. For optimization problems, however, the differential calculus technique sometimes has a drawback when the objective function is step-wise, discontinuous, or multi-modal, or when decision variables are discrete rather than continuous. Thus, researchers have...
