Interdisciplinary Systems Research Analysis - Modeling - Simulation

Interdisziplinäre Systemforschung Analyse - Formallsierung - SimulatiOn

The system science has been developed from several scientific fields: control and communication theory, model theory and computer science. Nowadays it fulfills the requirements which Norbert Wiener formulated originally for cybernetics; and were not feasible at his time, because of insufficient development of computer science in the past. Research and practical application of system science involve works of specialists of system science as weil as of those from various fields of application. Up to now, the efficiency of this co-operation has been proved in many theoretical and practical works. The series 'Interdisciplinary Systems Research' is intended to be a source of information for university students and scientists involved in theoretical and applied systems research. The reader shall be informed about the most advanced state of the art in research, application, lecturing and metatheoretical criticism in this area. It is also intended to enlarge this area by including diverse mathematical modeling procedures developed in many decades for the description and optimization of systems. In contrast to the former tradition, which restricted the theoretical control and computer science to mathematicians, physicists and engineers, the present series emphasizes the interdisciplinarity which system science has reached until now, and which tends to expand. City and regional planners, psychologists, physiologists, economists, ecologists, food scientists, sociologists. pOlitical scientists, lawyers, pedagogues, philologists, managers, diplomats, military scientists and other specialists are increasingly confronted or even charged with problems of system science. The ISR series will contain research reports - including PhD-theses -Iecture notes, readers for lectures and proceedings of scientific symposia. The use of less expensive printing methods is provided to assure that the authors' results may be offered for discussion in the shortest time to a broad, interested community. In order to ass ure the reproducibility of the published results the coding lists of the used programs should be included in reports about computer simulation. The international character of this series is intended to be accomplished by including reports in German, English and French, both from universities and research centers in the whole world. To ass ure this goal, the editors' board will be compose
