This unique reference traces the changing borders and ethnic balances that characterized the history of Eastern Europe during the twentieth century. After a preliminary overview, the book divides Eastern Europe into five regions, from the Baltic to the Balkans, and closely analyzes the ethnic structure of each region's constituent units over time. Summary chapters at the end of the volume present a comprehensive ethno-demographic portrait of the region at the start of the century, between the two world wars, and from the post-World War II period to the century's end. The volume is richly illustrated with more than sixty figures, hundreds of tables, and multi-lingual indexes of place names and ethnic groups.

This book contains selected papers from IWIFSGN-2023, the Twenty First International Workshop on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets and Generalized Nets, held on October 20, 2023, in Warsaw. This is one of premiere conferences on fuzzy logic, notably on extensions of the traditional fuzzy sets, in particular the intuitionistic fuzzy sets, also comprising a considerable part on the generalized nets (GNs) and the intercriteria analysis. The topics of the conference combine systems modeling, systems analysis, broadly perceived operational research, notably optimization, decision-making, and decision support, with various aspects of uncertain and imprecise information and their related tools and techniques.

This book is composed of selected papers from two very important conferences, IWIFSGN'2024—Twenty Second International Workshop on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets and Generalized Nets held in  Warsaw, Poland, on October 18, 2024, and BOS/SOR 2024, National Conference on Operational and Systems Research, held in Warsaw, Poland, on October, 17–18, 2024. IWIFSGN-2024 is one of premiere conferences on fuzzy logic, notably on extensions of the traditional fuzzy sets, in particular the Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets. Moreover, a considerable part of the book is devoted to the Generalized Nets (GNs). BOS/SOR-2924 is one of premiere conferences on operational and systems research and their applications.  A joint publication of selected papers from the two conferences follows a long tradition of such a joint organization and—from a substantial point of view—combines systems modeling, systems analysis, broadly perceived operational research, notably optimization, decision making, and decision support, with various aspects of uncertain and imprecise information and their related tools and techniques. This has attracted been welcome by the research community interested in broadly perceived various aspects of uncertain and imprecise information and their related tools and techniques applied for the analysis and solution of many real-world problems.

This book presents selected papers from two important conferences held on October 12–14, 2016 in Warsaw, Poland: the Fourteenth National Conference of Operational and Systems Research, BOS-2016, one of the premiere conferences in the field of operational and systems research not only in Poland but also at the European level; and the Fifteenth International Workshop on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Sets and General Nets, IWIFSGN-2016, one of the foremost conferences on fuzzy logic, notably addressing extensions of the traditional fuzzy sets, as well as the Generalized Nets (GNs), a powerful extension of the traditional Petri net paradigm. The scope of the BOS conferences includes all types of problems related to systems modeling, systems analysis, broadly perceived operational research, optimization, decision making, and decision support, to name but a few. In all these areas, virtually all models used have to take into account not only uncertainty in its traditional sense, but also imprecision of information. That is, in addition to traditional probabilistic and statistical tools and techniques, the use of methods based on fuzzy sets can also be sensible. Even more so, employing certain extensions of the classic concept of a fuzzy set can be very useful. Applying intuitionistic fuzzy sets, which are at the core of the IWIFSGN conferences, is a good example. Both conferences, BOS-2016 and IWIFSGN-2016, offered ideal venues for the exchange of ideas, cross-fertilization, and mutual inspiration.
