From cell phones to Web portals, advances in information and communications technology have thrust society into an information age that is far-reaching, fast-moving, increasingly complex, and yet essential to modern life. Now, renowned scholar and author David Luenberger has produced Information Science, a text that distills and explains the most important concepts and insights at the core of this ongoing revolution. The book represents the material used in a widely acclaimed course offered at Stanford University. Drawing concepts from each of the constituent subfields that collectively comprise information science, Luenberger builds his book around the five "E's" of information: Entropy, Economics, Encryption, Extraction, and Emission. Each area directly impacts modern information products, services, and technology--everything from word processors to digital cash, database systems to decision making, marketing strategy to spread spectrum communication. To study these principles is to learn how English text, music, and pictures can be compressed, how it is possible to construct a digital signature that cannot simply be copied, how beautiful photographs can be sent from distant planets with a tiny battery, how communication networks expand, and how producers of information products can make a profit under difficult market conditions. The book contains vivid examples, illustrations, exercises, and points of historic interest, all of which bring to life the analytic methods presented: Presents a unified approach to the field of information science Emphasizes basic principles Includes a wide range of examples and applications Helps students develop important new skills Suggests exercises with solutions in an instructor's manual

Linear and Nonlinear Programming

Second Edition

By: David G. Luenberger

The original edition of this book was celebrated for its coverage of the central concepts of practical optimization techniques. This updated edition expands and illuminates the connection between the purely analytical character of an optimization problem, expressed by properties of the necessary conditions, and the behavior of algorithms used to solve a problem. Incorporating modern theoretical insights, this classic text is even more useful.

Portfolio Performance Measurement and Benchmarking

By: Jon A. Christopherson,David R. Carino,Wayne E. Ferson

In order to make sound investment choices, investors must know the projected return on investment in relation to the risk of not being paid. Benchmarks are excellent evaluators, but the failure to choose the right investing performance benchmark often leads to bad decisions or inaction, which inevitably results in lost profits. The first book of its kind, Portfolio Performance Measurement and Benchmarking is a complete guide to benchmarks and performace evaluation using benchmarks. In one inclusive volume, readers get foundational coverage on benchmark construction, as well as expert insight into specific benchmarks for asset classes and investment styles. Starting with the basics—such as return calculations and methods of dealing with cash flows—this thorough book covers a wide variety of performance measurement methodologies and evaluation techniques before moving into more technical material that deconstructs both the creation of indexes and the components of a desirable benchmark. Portfolio Performance Measurement and Benchmarking provides detailed coverage of benchmarks for: U.S. equities Global and international equities Fixed income Real estate The team of renowned authors offers illuminating opinions on the philosophy and development of equity indexes, while highlighting numerous mechanical problems inherent in building benchmarks and the implications of each one.

Solutions Manual for Investment Science

By: David G. Luenberger

Investment Science is designed for the core theoretical finance course in quantitative investment and for those individuals interested in the current state of development in the field -- what the essential ideas are, how they are represented, how they are represented, how they can be used inactual investment practice, and where the field might be headed in the future. The coverage is similar to more intuitive texts but goes much farther in terms of mathematical content, featuring varying levels of mathematical sophistication throughout. The emphasis of the text is on the fundamentalprinciples and how they can be mastered and transformed into solutions of important and interesting investment problems. End-of the chapter exercises are also included, and unlike most books in the field, Investment Science does not concentrate on institutional detail, but instead focuses onmethodology.
