Computation and complexity in economic behavior and organization / Kenneth R. Mount and Stanley Reiter.

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: Cambridge : Canbridge University Press, 2002.Description: ix, 237 p. : illustrations ; 24 cmISBN:
  • 9780521800563
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 330.0151 23 M928
Incomplete contents:
1. Introduction -- 2. F Networks -- 3. Networks of Real-Valued Functions -- 4. Applications to Economics -- 5. Applications to Games -- 6. Lower Bounds and Approximations -- 7. Organizations -- A. App. to Chapter 2: Graph Theory -- B. App. to Chapter 3: Real-Valued Functions -- C. App. to Chapter 5: Application to Games -- Bibliography -- Index.
Summary: This book presents a model of computing and a measure of computational complexity that are intended to facilitate the analysis of computations performed by people, machines, or a mixed system of people and machines. The model is designed to apply directly to models of economic theory, which typically involve continuous variables and smooth functions, without requiring an analysis of approximations.
