No pleasure lasts long unless there is variety in it. Publilius Syrus, Moral Sayings We've been very fortunate to receive fantastic feedback from our readers during the last four years, since the first edition of How to Solve It: Modern Heuristics was published in 1999. It's heartening to know that so many people appreciated the book and, even more importantly, were using the book to help them solve their problems. One professor, who published a review of the book, said that his students had given the best course reviews he'd seen in 15 years when using our text. There can be hardly any better praise, except to add that one of the book reviews published in a SIAM journal received the best review award as well. We greatly appreciate your kind words and personal comments that you sent, including the few cases where you found some typographical or other errors. Thank you all for this wonderful support.

Genetic Algorithms + Data Structures = Evolution Programs

Genetic Algorithms + Data Structures = Evolution Programs

Zbigniew Michalewicz

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K
1996
sidottu
Genetic algorithms are founded upon the principle of evolution, i.e., survival of the fittest. Hence evolution programming techniques, based on genetic algorithms, are applicable to many hard optimization problems, such as optimization of functions with linear and nonlinear constraints, the traveling salesman problem, and problems of scheduling, partitioning, and control. The importance of these techniques is still growing, since evolution programs are parallel in nature, and parallelism is one of the most promising directions in computer science.The book is self-contained and the only prerequisite is basic undergraduate mathematics. This third edition has been substantially revised and extended by three new chapters and by additional appendices containing working material to cover recent developments and a change in the perception of evolutionary computation.

The Rise of Artificial Intelligence

The Rise of Artificial Intelligence

Zbigniew Michalewicz; Leonardo Arantes; Matt Michalewicz

Hybrid Publishers
2021
sidottu
Few terms have captured our imagination in recent times like "Artificial Intelligence," and it now seems that everyone "knows" about AI; that everyone has an opinion. And yet, few people actually understand what Artificial Intelligence is and isn't, where the field came from and where it's heading, and how the technology can be harnessed to generate commercial outcomes.Written for the modern-day business manager, this book examines Artificial Intelligence from the perspective of decision-making, because the quality of the decisions we make defines the quality of the future we create for ourselves and our organizations. In the same way that calculators have improved our ability to make better decisions-followed by spreadsheets, reporting tools, and countless other software applications-Artificial Intelligence is fast becoming the latest "calculator" to assist us, and one that happens to be particularly well-suited for the speed, noise, and complexity of the modern world...Internationally renowned new technologies expert, Dr Zbigniew Michalewicz has published over 200 articles and 15 books on the subjects of business intelligence, predictive data mining, and optimisation. Leonardo Arantes is a dynamic sales and marketing professional, with a reputation for using creative problem-solving to take products to market and deliver on customer needs. Matt Michalewicz has more than 20 years of experience in starting and running high-growth tech companies, especially in the areas of machine learning, predictive analytics, and decision optimisation.

Reconstruction of the Poet: Uncollected Works of Zbigniew Herbert

Reconstruction of the Poet: Uncollected Works of Zbigniew Herbert

Zbigniew Herbert

Ecco Press
2025
nidottu
From one of Poland's most acclaimed poets comes a new collection of poems and plays spanning almost five decades and translated for the first time.Encapsulating the prolific work of the poet and playwright Zbigniew Herbert, Reconstruction of the Poet is both a celebration of a profound life of letters and a wide-ranging collection of never-before-published work that casts new light on a much-loved poet. Spanning from 1950 to 1998, this volume of work contains three plays--The Philosophers' Cave, The Other Room, and Reconstruction of the Poet--and over fifty poems. This collection takes readers through the mind of a man attempting to look at the ruins of a postwar world while seeking living sources of European culture, with poems commemorating contemporaries fallen in wartime, elevating erotic experience and friendship, and exploring political and metaphysical passions.A rich expansion of previously published works by Herbert, Reconstruction of the Poet is both an introduction for readers who might still be unfamiliar with this important poet's work and a fresh invitation for reflection for his longtime readers.

Zbigniew Brzezinski

Zbigniew Brzezinski

Justin Vaisse

Harvard University Press
2018
sidottu
As National Security Adviser to President Jimmy Carter, Zbigniew Brzezinski (1928–2017) guided U.S. foreign policy at a critical juncture of the Cold War. But his impact on America’s role in the world extends far beyond his years in the White House, and reverberates to this day. His geopolitical vision, scholarly writings, frequent media appearances, and policy advice to decades of presidents from Lyndon Johnson to Barack Obama made him America’s grand strategist, a mantle only Henry Kissinger could also claim.Both men emigrated from turbulent Europe in 1938 and got their Ph.D.s in the 1950s from Harvard, then the epitome of the Cold War university. With its rise to global responsibilities, the United States needed professionals. Ambitious academics like Brzezinski soon replaced the old establishment figures who had mired the country in Vietnam, and they transformed the way America conducted foreign policy.Justin Vaïsse offers the first biography of the successful immigrant who completed a remarkable journey from his native Poland to the White House, interacting with influential world leaders from Gloria Steinem to Deng Xiaoping to John Paul II. This complex intellectual portrait reveals a man who weighed in on all major foreign policy debates since the 1950s, from his hawkish stance on the USSR to his advocacy for the Middle East peace process and his support for a U.S.-China global partnership. Through its examination of Brzezinski’s statesmanship and comprehensive vision, Zbigniew Brzezinski raises important questions about the respective roles of ideas and identity in foreign policy.

Zbigniew Preisner's Three Colors Trilogy: Blue, White, Red

Zbigniew Preisner's Three Colors Trilogy: Blue, White, Red

Nicholas W. Reyland

Scarecrow Press
2011
nidottu
Director Krzysztof Kieslowski's Three Colors trilogy—Blue (1993), White (1993), and Red (1994)—is one of the great achievements of European film. A meditation on liberty, equality, and fraternity, these three films marked the culmination of the director's career, as well as the zenith of one of the most important creative collaborations in 20th-century cinema-between Kieslowski, scriptwriter Krzysztof Piesiewicz, and composer Zbigniew Preisner. Thanks to their close working relationship, music for the Three Colors trilogy achieves both a focal narrative and philosophical function. At times, Preisner's music advances the narrative independently of the films' other codes; at other times, it creates a metaphorical space into which the audience is invited in order to read for "deeper" messages. As the first major scholarly treatment of Preisner's music, Nicholas Reyland's Zbigniew Preisner's Three Colors Trilogy: A Film Score Guide fills an important void in film score scholarship. In this guide, Reyland analyzes the historical context of the film scores, the life of the composer, the hermeneutic and narrative role of the music within the film, and the musical scoring techniques used for the trilogy. This volume also draws on an interplay of established "classic" approaches to analyzing film music and more recent approaches in the exploration of its themes and readings. In addition, the composer's willingness to be interviewed by Reyland enhances the musicological scholarship of this book, giving the reader privileged access into the process of scoring. A significant contribution to both film studies and musicological literature, this book celebrates one of the great cinematic achievements of the last few decades.

Zbigniew Herbert Und Europa

Die Studie untersucht Zbigniew Herberts lyrische und essayistische Versuche, Europa als gemeinsamen Kulturraum vor dem Hintergrund des Zweiten Weltkriegs und der anschliessenden Spaltung des Kontinents zu rekonstruieren. Herberts Arbeit am kulturellen Gedachtnis erzeugt ein dichtes Netz intertextueller Bezuge, das auf eine fur die europaische Gemeinschaft grundlegende Verbindung verweist und damit die europaische Identitat Polens fortschreibt. Die geopoetisch erschlossene Grenzenlosigkeit der europaischen Kultur dient Herbert zum Einspruch gegen die zeitgenoessische geopolitische Spaltung. Auch im gegenwartigen Diskurs um Europa erweist sich sein Werk als ein verbluffend aktueller Kommentar, weltoffen und frei von jedem nationalen Eigendunkel.

Es besteht kein Zweifel daruber, dass die internationale Karriere Zbigniew Herberts Mitte der 1960er Jahre in OEsterreich begann. Die Idee des vorliegenden Buches entstand im Rahmen des literarischen Abends "Auf den Spuren von Zbigniew Herbert in OEsterreich" der am Vorabend des in Polen begangenen Zbigniew-Herbert-Jahres 2018 in Wien stattfand. Im Mittelpunkt der Veranstaltung stand der oesterreichische Kontext im Werk des polnischen Autors (1924-1998), dessen Familie aus England stammend uber Wien in die Hauptstadt Galiziens Lemberg kam. Der Band widmet sich ausgewahlten Texten Herberts und geht auf zum Teil wenig bekannte Fakten aus der Biographie des Lyrikers und Essayisten ein, die dessen enge Verbindungen zu OEsterreich belegen.

Zbig: The Life of Zbigniew Brzezinski, America's Great Power Prophet

Zbig: The Life of Zbigniew Brzezinski, America's Great Power Prophet

Edward Luce

Avid Reader Press / Simon Schuster
2025
sidottu
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER An intimate and masterful biography of Zbigniew Brzezinski--President Carter's national security advisor and one of America's leading geopolitical thinkers--from one of the finest columnists and political writers at work today. Zbigniew Brzezinski was a key architect of the Soviet Union's demise, which ended the Cold War. A child of Warsaw--the heart of central Europe's bloodlands--Brzezinski turned his fierce resentment at his homeland's razing by Nazi Germany and the Red Army into a lifelong quest for liberty. Born the year that Joseph Stalin consolidated power, and dying a few months into Donald Trump's first presidency, Brzezinski was shaped by and in turn shaped the global power struggles of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. As counsel to US presidents from John F. Kennedy to Barack Obama, and chief foreign policy figure of the late 1970s under Jimmy Carter, Brzezinski converted his acclaim as a Sovietologist into Washington power. With Henry Kissinger, his lifelong rival with whom he had a fraught on-off relationship, he personified the new breed of foreign-born scholar who thrived in America's "Cold War University"--and who ousted Washington's gentlemanly class of WASPs who had run US foreign policy for so long. Brzezinski's impact, aided by his unusual friendship with the Polish-born John Paul II, sprang from his knowledge of Moscow's "Achilles heel"--the fact that its nationalities, such as the Ukrainians, and satellite states, including Poland, yearned to shake off Moscow's grip. Neither a hawk nor a dove, Brzezinski was a biting critic of George W. Bush's Iraq War and an early endorser of Obama. Because he went against the DC grain of joining factions, and was on occasion willing to drop Democrats for Republicans, Brzezinski is something of history's orphan. His historic role has been greatly underweighted. In the almost cinematic arc of his life can be found the grand narrative of the American century and great power struggle that followed.

Scientific Legacy Of Professor Zbigniew Oziewicz: Selected Papers From The International Conference "Applied Category Theory Graph-operad-logic"

WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBLISHING CO PTE LTD
2023
sidottu
Dedicated to the memory of the late Professor Zbigniew Oziewicz from Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, the book consists of papers on a wide variety of topics related to the work of Professor Oziewicz, which were presented at the special conference on Graph-Operads-Logic (GOL 2021), selected through peer review to promote his scientific legacy.Professor Oziewicz was a great enthusiast and supporter of category theory and its applications in physics, as well as in various areas of mathematics (topology, noncommutative geometry, etc.). In particular, he made significant contributions to the theory of Frobenius algebras, which now are becoming more important due to their connection with topological quantum field theories that are used in mathematical physics and in quantum topology. Professor Oziewicz was a great and very generous teacher, who immersed his students in the beautiful ideas of category theory as well as mathematical physics and computation. It was his idea to start a series of conferences under the title Graphs-Operads-Logic, most of them held in Mexico, with some of them in the USA, which were a great platform to discuss various ideas connected with category theory and its various applications, and to make friends with other scientists. Despite his passing, the GOL 2021 conference is included in this series to pay tribute to his many contributions to diverse areas of science.The book is laid out in twelve main topics where we can find relevant works from distinguished experts.
