Dariusz Sosnicki's poems open our eyes to the sublime just beneath the surface of the mundane: a train carrying children…
away from their parents for summer vacation turns into a ravenous monster; a meal at a Chinese restaurant inspires a surreal journey through the zodiac; a malfunctioning printer is a reminder of the ghosts that haunt us no matter where we find ourselves.Among the perpetrators and victims,buzzed or wasted to the bone,gliding without their blinkers onin the ruts of the national fate--they're not at home.Dariusz Sosnicki is an award-winning poet, essayist, and editor in Poland.By Mv Lakshmi Devi, R Vijaya Krishnam Naidu, G Venkata Ramana, P Venkata Ramana. 2015

Accessible to a variety of readers, this book is of interest to specialists, graduate students and researchers in mathematics, optimization,…
computer science, operations research, management science, engineering and other applied areas interested in solving optimization problems. Basic principles, potential and boundaries of applicability of stochastic global optimization techniques are examined in this book. A variety of issues that face specialists in global optimization are explored, such as multidimensional spaces which are frequently ignored by researchers. The importance of precise interpretation of the mathematical results in assessments of optimization methods is demonstrated through examples of convergence in probability of random search. Methodological issues concerning construction and applicability of stochastic global optimization methods are discussed, including the one-step optimal average improvement method based on a statistical model of the objective function. A significant portion of this book is devoted to an analysis of high-dimensional global optimization problems and the so-called ‘curse of dimensionality’. An examination of the three different classes of high-dimensional optimization problems, the geometry of high-dimensional balls and cubes, very slow convergence of global random search algorithms in large-dimensional problems , and poor uniformity of the uniformly distributed sequences of points are included in this book.
