Business, Economics, and Finance with Matlab, GIS, and Simulation Models

This book presents advancements in mathematical methods for finance, business valuation, retail sales prediction, tax policy, location analysis, economic impact, public policy, as well as other challenges faced by executives, investors, and economists on a daily basis. It also offers groundbreaking insight into the many calculation tools that can be remotely hosted and run over the Internet, resulting in substantial user benefits and cost savings. With many techniques and models directly incorporating geographic information in a way that was impossible until quite recently, some techniques, such as fuzzy logic, retail sales, economic impact, and other Matlab and Simulink models are described for the first time in print in this book. A cutting-edge text, this modern blueprint will direct tremendously higher computational power towards the challenges of business, economics, and finance.Patrick L.
