This book covers a wide range of topics within mathematical
modelling and the optimization of economic, demographic,
technological and environmental phenomena. Each chapter is written
by experts in their field and represents new advances in modelling
theory and practice. These essays are exemplary of the fruitful
interaction between theory and practice when exploring global and
local changes.
The unifying theme of the book is the use of mathematical models
and optimization methods to describe age-structured populations in
economy, demography, technological change, and the environment.
Emphasis is placed on deterministic dynamic models that take age or
size structures, delay effects, and non-standard decision variables
into account. In addition, the contributions deal with the age
structure of assets, resources, and populations under study.
Interdisciplinary modelling has enormous potential for discovering
new insights in global and regional development.
Optimal Control of Age-structured Populations in Economy,
Demography, and the Environment is a rich and excellent source of
information on state-of-the-art modelling expertise and references.
The book provides the necessary mathematical background for readers
from different areas, such as applied sciences, management sciences
and operations research, which helps guide the development of
practical models. As well as this the book also surveys the current
practice in applied modelling and looks at new research areas for a
general mathematical audience. This book will be of interest
primarily to researchers, postgraduate students, as well as a wider
scientific community, including those focussing on the subjects of
applied mathematics, environmental sciences, economics, demography,
management, and operations research.
