Implementing Models in Quantitative Finance : Methods and Cases
This book puts numerical methods into action for the purpose of solving concrete problems arising in quantitative finance. Part one develops a comprehensive toolkit including Monte Carlo simulation, numerical schemes for partial differential equations, stochastic optimization in discrete time, copula functions, transform-based methods and quadrature techniques. The content originates from class notes written for courses on numerical methods for finance and exotic derivative pricing held by the authors at Bocconi University since the year 2000. Part two proposes eighteen self-contained cases covering model simulation, derivative valuation, dynamic hedging, portfolio selection, risk management, statistical estimation and model calibration. It encompasses a wide variety of problems arising in markets for equity, interest rates, credit risk, energy and exotic derivatives.

Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems ; Vol. 3535 ; 7th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference, FMOODS 2005, Athens, Greece, June 15-17, 2005, Proceedings
This volume contains the proceedings of FMOODS2005, the 7th IFIPWG6. 1 International Conference on Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems. The conference was held in Athens, Greece on June 15-17, 2005. The eventwasthe seventh meeting ofthis conference series, whichis held roughly every year and a half, with the earlier events held respectively in Paris, Canterbury, Florence, Stanford, Twente, and Paris. The goal of the FMOOD Sseries of conferences is to bring together researchers whose work encompasses three important and related fields: - formal methods; - distributed systems; - object-based technology. Sucha convergenceis representative of recent advances in the field of distributed systems, and provides links between several scientific and technological communities, as represented by the conferences FORTE, CONCUR, and ECOOP. The objective of FMOODS is to provide an integrated forum for the pres- tation of research in the above-mentioned fields, and the exchange of ideas and experiences in the topics concerned with the formal methods support for open object-based distributed systems.

Digital Control Systems demonstrates in detail how to design and implement high-performance model-based controllers combining system identification and control design techniques extensively tested in industrial milieux. The effective use of these techniques is illustrated in the context of various systems including: d.c. motors, flexible transmissions, air heaters, distillation columns and hot-dip galvanizing. Topics covered include: • essentials of computer-based control systems; • controller design methods (robust pole placement, long-range-predictive control, state space, digital PID, etc.); • system identification techniques; • practical aspects of system identification and digital control.
Developing secure auto-scaling military postponement e-service in Syria
This study is about developing a secure, autoscaling military postponement e-service in Syria, that allows Syrian citizens to conveniently access services provided by the Syrian Recruitment Department conveniently through their smartphones. Currently, many Syrian citizens need to use the services offered by the Recruitment Department, resulting in overcrowding in a single location for similar purposes. This situation places a significant burden on both citizens and the government. The mobile application will facilitate various services such as enlistment and postponing military service by employing a well-designed software architecture that ensures scalability and efficient distribution of these services.

Databases, Information Systems, and Peer-to-Peer Computing ; International Workshops, DBISP2P 2005/2006, Trondheim, Norway, August 28-29, 2006, Revised Selected Papers
The P2P paradigm lends itself to constructing large-scale, complex, adaptive, autonomous and heterogeneous database and information systems, endowed with clearly specified and difierential capabilities to negotiate, bargain, coordinate and self-organize the information exchanges in large-scale networks. This vision will have a radical impact on the structure of complex organizations (business, sci- tific or otherwise) and on the emergence and the formation of social communities, and on how the information is organized and processed. The P2P information paradigm naturally encompasses static and wireless connectivity and static and mobile architectures. Wireless connectivity combined with the increasingly small and powerful mobile devices and sensors poses new challenges as well as opp- tunities to the database community. Information becomes ubiquitous, highly distributed and accessible anywhere and at any time over highly dynamic, - stable networks with very severe constraints on the information management and processing capabilities.
