Presenting a set of contributions by the most influential authors on the Steiner Tree problem, the authors of this text address the latest concerns of Steiner Trees for their computational complexity, design of algorithms, performance guaranteed heuristics, computational experimentation, and range of applications. The book is intended for advanced undergraduates, graduates and research scientists in combinational optimization and computer science. It is divided into two sections: Part I includes papers on the general geometric Steiner Tree problem in the plane and higher dimensions; Part II includes papers on the Steiner problem on graphs which has significant import to Steiner Tree applications.

Introduction to Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics presents comprehensive coverage of thermodynamics from a chemical engineering viewpoint. The text provides a thorough exposition of the principles of thermodynamics and details their application to chemical processes. The chapters are written in a clear, logically organized manner, and contain an abundance of realistic problems, examples, and illustrations to help students understand complex concepts. This text is structured to alternate between the development of thermodynamic principles and the correlation and use of thermodynamic properties as well as between theory and applications. To enhance student reading, the ninth edition now includes SmartBook® 2.0. SmartBook 2.0—Our adaptive reading experience has been made more personal, accessible, productive, and mobile.
