Download or read book Applications of Graph Theory written by Ashay Dharwadker and published by Institute of Mathematics. This book was released on 2007-08-07 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graph theory is becoming increasingly significant as it is applied to other areas of mathematics, science and technology. It is being actively used in fields as varied as biochemistry (genomics), electrical engineering (communication networks and coding theory), computer science (algorithms and computation) and operations research (scheduling). The powerful combinatorial methods found in graph theory have also been used to prove fundamental results in other areas of pure mathematics. This book, besides giving a general outlook of these facts, includes new graph theoretical proofs of Fermat’s Little Theorem and the Nielson-Schreier Theorem. New applications to DNA sequencing (the SNP assembly problem) and computer network security (worm propagation) using minimum vertex covers in graphs are discussed. We also show how to apply edge coloring and matching in graphs for scheduling (the timetabling problem) and vertex coloring in graphs for map coloring and the assignment of frequencies in GSM mobile phone networks. Finally, we revisit the classical problem of finding re-entrant knight’s tours on a chessboard using Hamiltonian circuits in graphs.

Download or read book Graph Theory Applications written by L.R. Foulds and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of this text covers the main graph theoretic topics: connectivity, trees, traversability, planarity, colouring, covering, matching, digraphs, networks, matrices of a graph, graph theoretic algorithms, and matroids. These concepts are then applied in the second part to problems in engineering, operations research, and science as well as to an interesting set of miscellaneous problems, thus illustrating their broad applicability. Every effort has been made to present applications that use not merely the notation and terminology of graph theory, but also its actual mathematical results. Some of the applications, such as in molecular evolution, facilities layout, and graffic network design, have never appeared before in book form. Written at an advanced undergraduate to beginning graduate level, this book is suitable for students of mathematics, engineering, operations research, computer science, and physical sciences as well as for researchers and practitioners with an interest in graph theoretic modelling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses many modern, cutting-edge applications of graph theory, such as traffic networks and Braess' paradox, navigable networks and optimal routing for emergency response, backbone/dominating sets in wireless sensor networks, placement of electric vehicle charging stations, pedestrian safety and graph-theoretic methods in molecular epidemiology. Because of the rapid growth of research in this field, the focus of the book is on the up-to-date development of the aforementioned applications. The book will be ideal for researchers, engineers, transport planners and emergency response specialists who are interested in the recent development of graph theory applications. Moreover, this book can be used as teaching material for postgraduate students because, in addition to up-to-date descriptions of the applications, it includes exercises and their solutions. Some of the exercises mimic practical, real-life situations. Advanced students in graph theory, computer science or molecular epidemiology may use the problems and research methods presented in this book to develop their final-year projects, master's theses or doctoral dissertations; however, to use the information effectively, special knowledge of graph theory would be required.

Download or read book Operations Research Problems written by Raúl Poler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-08 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this book is to provide a valuable compendium of problems as a reference for undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, researchers and practitioners of operations research and management science. These problems can serve as a basis for the development or study of assignments and exams. Also, they can be useful as a guide for the first stage of the model formulation, i.e. the definition of a problem. The book is divided into 11 chapters that address the following topics: Linear programming, integer programming, non linear programming, network modeling, inventory theory, queue theory, tree decision, game theory, dynamic programming and markov processes. Readers are going to find a considerable number of statements of operations research applications for management decision-making. The solutions of these problems are provided in a concise way although all topics start with a more developed resolution. The proposed problems are based on the research experience of the authors in real-world companies so much as on the teaching experience of the authors in order to develop exam problems for industrial engineering and business administration studies.

Download or read book Graph Theory and Its Engineering Applications written by W K Chen and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 1997-02-03 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graphs are extremely useful in modeling systems in physical sciences and engineering problems, because of their intuitive diagrammatic nature. This text gives a reasonably deep account of material closely related to engineering applications. Topics like directed-graph solutions of linear equations, topological analysis of linear systems, state equations, rectangle dissection and layouts, and network flows are included. A major theme of the book is electrical network theory. This book is basically intended as a reference text for researchers, and requires a certain level of mathematical maturity. However the text may equally well be used for graduate level courses on network topology and linear systems and circuits. Some of the later chapters are suitable as topics for advanced seminars. A special feature of the book is that references to other published literature are included for almost all the results presented, making the book especially handy for those wishing to continue with a study of special topics.
