Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization of Integrated Circuits

(Proc. Oberwolfach Conf. Dec. 2001)

K. Antreich, R. Bulirsch, A. Gilg, P. Rentrop, eds., Birkhaüser, 2003, 360 pp., price €118.-
Level: advanced.
This conference brought together mathematicians, electrical engineers and industrial scientists. The theme is really numerical simulation of devices, circuits and networks using advanced mathematical tools, among which dynamical systems methods.
Nonlinear Equations: Methods, Models and Applications

(papers from Bergamo workshop, July 2001)

D. Lupo, C.D. Pagani, B. Ruf, eds., Birkhaüser, 2003, 268 pp., price  €98.-
Level: advanced.
The Bergamo workshop produced survey and research papers on variational inequalities and critical point theory as applied to elliptic equations, Schrodinger and Navier-Stokes and many other interesting equations. The emphasis is on a fundamental mathematical approach.
Cover of Elements of Nonlinear Analysis Elements of Nonlinear Analysis

M. Chipot, Birkhaüser, 2000, 264 pp., price €49.-
Level: advanced.
Interesting book on fundamental aspects of elliptic and parabolic problems arising in elasticity and biology. Consistent use of variational inequalities and Sobolev spaces which is important for nonlinear mathematical analysis (as 'opposed' to nonlinear dynamics).
