Dynamic optimization is rocket science and more. This volume teaches how to harness the modern theory of dynamic optimization to solve practical problems, not only from space flight but also in emerging social applications such as the control of drugs, corruption, and terror. These innovative domains are usefully thought about in terms of populations, incentives, and interventions, concepts which map well into the framework of optimal dynamic control. This volume is designed to be a lively introduction to the mathematics and a bridge to these hot topics in the economics of crime for current scholars. We celebrate Pontryagin s Maximum Principle that crowning intellectual achievement of human understanding and push its frontiers by exploring models that display multiple equilibria whose basins of attraction are separated by higher-dimensional DNSS "tipping points." That rich theory is complemented by numerical methods available through a companion web site."
Dynamic optimization is rocket science - and more. This volume teaches researchers and students alike to harness the modern theory of dynamic optimization to solve practical problems. These problems not only cover those in space flight, but also in emerging social applications such as the control of drugs, corruption, and terror.

The authors celebrate Pontryagin's Maximum Principle - that crowning intellectual achievement of human understanding.

Dieser Sammelband ist eine Bestandsaufnahme der Vereinbarkeit von Familienleben (Betreuung von Kindern und Pflege von Familienangehoerigen) und Erwerbsleben. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf einem erweiterten Begriff von Vereinbarkeit, der eine Karriere im Sinne einer erfolgreichen Teilnahme am Arbeitsmarkt miteinschliesst - und nicht nur das Ausuben eines Jobs. Die Autor_innen zeigen anhand von Daten aus OEsterreich und Deutschland die wesentlichen Charakteristika von Problemen zur Vereinbarkeit auf und stellen Instrumente vor, die einen Beitrag zu einer verbesserten Vereinbarkeit von Familie, Beruf und Karriere und damit auch zur Gleichstellung der Geschlechter leisten koennen. Neben den Moeglichkeiten werden aber auch Grenzen, wie etwa koerperliche oder emotionale Belastungen, vor allem aber finanzielle Ausfalle und Karrierenachteile, thematisiert.
