Studies on integer optimization in emergency management have attracted engineers and scientists from various disciplines such as management, mathematics, computer science, and other fields. Although there are a large number of literature reports on integer planning and emergency events, few books systematically explain the combination of the two. Researchers need a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and application of integer programming methods for emergency management. Integer Optimization and its Computation in Emergency Management investigates the computation theory of integer optimization, developing integer programming methods for emergency management and explores related practical applications. Pursuing a holistic approach, this book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, intended for graduate students who are interested in operations research and optimization, researchers investigating emergency management, and algorithm design engineers working on integer programming or other optimization applications.

Stability and Controls Analysis for Delay Systems is devoted to stability, controllability and iterative learning control (ILC) to delay systems, including first order system, oscillating systems, impulsive systems, fractional systems, difference systems and stochastic systems raised from physics, biology, population dynamics, ecology and economics, currently not presented in other books on conventional fields. Delayed exponential matrix function approach is widely used to derive the representation and stability of the solutions and the controllability. ILC design are also established, which can be regarded as a way to find the control function. The broad variety of achieved results with rigorous proofs and many numerical examples make this book unique.
