This book arose out of an invited feature article on visualization
and opti mization that appeared in the ORSA Journal on Computing in
1994. That article briefly surveyed the current state of the art in
visualization as it ap plied to optimization. In writing the
feature article, it became clear that there was much more to say.
Apparently others agreed, and thus this book was born. The book is
targeted primarily towards the optimization community rather than
the visualization community. Although both optimization and
visualization both seek to help people understand complex problems,
prac titioners in one field are generally unaware of work in the
other field. Given the common goals of the respective fields, it
seemed fruitful to consider how each can contribute to the other.
One might argue that this book should not be focused specifically
on optimization but on decision making in general. Perhaps, but it
seems that there is sufficient material to create a book targeted
specifically to optimization. Certainly many of the ideas presented
in the book are appli cable to other areas, including computer
simulation, decision theory and stochastic modeling. Another book
could discuss the use of visualization in these areas."
