Systems Engineering: A 21st Century Systems Methodology
This book conceives, presents and exemplifies a contemporary, general systems methodology that is straightforward and accessible, providing guidance in practical application, as well as explaining concept and theory. The book is presented both as a text for students, with topic assignments, and as a reference for practitioners, through case studies.
Stochastic Differential Equations: Theory and Applications
Without being too rigorous, the book constructs Ito integrals in a clear intuitive way and presents a wide range of examples and applications. A good reference for the more advanced reader as well.
Mathematicians, scientists, engineers, and students will look this dictionary for definitive coverage of all branches of mathematics, both pure and applied.

This dictionary is authoritative, comprehensive comprising latest terms and is carefully reviewed to ensure its accuracy, clarity, and completeness.
Readers will find in Pigeon an enticing exploration of the historical and contemporary bonds between humans and these two unique and closely related birds. For polluting statues and architecture, the pigeon has earned a bad reputation, but Barbara Allen offers several examples of the bird’s importance—as a source of food and fertilizer, a bearer of messages during times of war, a pollution monitor, and an aid to Charles Darwin in his pivotal research on evolutionary theory.
The theory of algebraic invariants has found insufficient attention in Russian mathematical literature. The book by Alekseev , written in 1899, is largely out of date, while individual chapters in certain textbooks on algebra (Sushkevich, Bocher, etc.) written later, give only the beginnings of the theory.
