{"product_id":"modeling-change-and-uncertainty","title":"Modeling Change and Uncertainty","description":"\u003cp\u003eMathematical modeling is a powerful craft that requires practice. The more practice the better one will become in executing the art. The authors wrote this book to develop the craft of mathematical modeling and to foster a desire for lifelong learning, habits of mind and develop competent and confident problem solvers and decision makers for the 21st century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book offers a problem-solving approach. The authors introduce a problem to help motivate the learning of a particular mathematical modeling topic. The problem provides the issue or what is needed to solve using an appropriate modeling technique. Then principles are applied to the problem and present the steps in obtaining an appropriate model to solve the problem. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eModeling Change and Uncertainty:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers both linear and nonlinear models of discrete dynamical systems. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces statistics and probability modeling. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces critical statistical concepts to handle univariate and multivariate data. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEstablishes a foundation in probability modeling. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses ordinary differential equations (ODEs) to develop a more robust solution to problems. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUses linear programming and machine learning to support decision making. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces the reality of uncertainty and randomness that is all around us. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses the use of linear programing to solve common problems in modern industry. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses he power and limitations of simulations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces the methods and formulas used in businesses and financial organizations. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces valuable techniques using Excel, MAPLE, and R. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eMathematical modeling offers a framework for decision makers in all fields.
