Crafts of Simulation Programs is a collection of tools, techniques and theories required to develop and implement simulation models on a computer. This timely book provides the various skills and techniques needed in simulation programming with general-purpose languages. The topics range in difficulty, and several latest fields in simulation output analysis are covered such as samples sizes, order statistics, ranking and selection, comparison with a control, selection with constraints, etc.Presented in the format of research project reports, detailed descriptions, important concepts and techniques are introduced and developed. Each chapter is relatively self-contained and can be used as a study unit. Algorithms have detailed implementations in C and are readable by anyone who has done a little programming. Many chapters include simulation results. It is designed to impart to the readers the statistical techniques used in simulation. This book will prove to be invaluable not only to students and researchers in the fields of simulation programming, but also to teachers of this subject who will find this text useful as a supplement.

A sample of the most exciting developments in the cloning, manipulation, expression and application of genetically-engineered monoclonal antibodies. This rapidly-evolving field has witnessed the PCR combinatorial cloning of vast immunological diversity, in vitro mutagenesis of MAbs, MAbs created by transgenic animals, novel expression systems in plants, animals and lower systems, as well as a rich variety of genetically modified MAbs as potential therapeutic agents. Leading scientists from academia and industry present their own findings as well as short reviews of these research areas.
