Mathematical Modeling and Computer Simulation

Daniel Maki and Maynard Thompson provide a conceptual framework for the process of building and using mathematical models, illustrating the uses of mathematical and computer models in a variety of situations. This text helps students learn that model building is a dynamic process involving simplification, approximation, abstraction, analysis, computation, and comparison. Students begin the process of model building with a consideration of phenomena arising in another academic area or in the real world.Maki, Daniel P. is the author of 'Mathematical Modeling and Computer Simulation ', published 2005 under ISBN 9780534384784 and ISBN 0534384781.
