The field recognizes that real-life problems often involve trying to balance a multiplicity of considerations simultaneously – such as performance, cost, risk, sustainability, and quality. The field develops theory, methods and tools that can support decision makers in finding appropriate solutions when faced with many (typically more than three) such criteria at the same time. The book consists of two parts: key research topics, and emerging topics. Part I begins with a general introduction to many-criteria optimization, perspectives from research leaders in real-world problems, and a contemporary survey of the attributes of problems of this kind. This part continues with chapters on fundamental aspects of many-criteria optimization, namely on order relations, quality measures, benchmarking, visualization, and theoretical considerations. Part II offers more specialized chapters on correlated objectives, heterogeneous objectives, Bayesian optimization, and game theory. Written by leading experts across the field of many-criteria optimization, this book will be an essential resource for researchers in the fields of evolutionary computing, operations research, multiobjective optimization, and decision science.Natural Computing Series,2627-6461Computer scienceOperations researchTheory of ComputationOperations Research and Decision TheoryComputer science.Operations research.Theory of Computation.Operations Research and Decision Theory.006.3823Brockhoff Dimo1380477Emmerich Michael1151656Naujoks Boris1380478Purshouse Robin1380479MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996547961503316Many-Criteria Optimization and Decision Analysis3421914UNISA03306oam 2200529I 450 991015945350332120230808201338.01-317-28660-X1-138-65601-11-315-64363-41-317-28659-610.4324/9781315643632 (CKB)3710000001018861(MiAaPQ)EBC4786778(OCoLC)966797980(BIP)63345738(BIP)54415374(EXLCZ)99371000000101886120180706d2016 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierDeviant behavior /Erich GoodeEleventh edition.New York :Routledge-Taylor and Francis,2016.1 online resource (529 pages)Revised edition of the author's Deviant behavior, 2014.1-138-65602-X 1-138-19190-6 Includes bibliographical references and indexes.ch. 1.

Concluding thoughts.Deviant Behavior provides a comprehensive study of the behavior, beliefs, conditions, and reactions to deviance, giving students a better understanding of this phenomenon. Deviance is discussed from the sociological perspectives of positivism and constructionism. Readers will grasp the reason behind deviant behavior through the positivist perspective and why certain actions, beliefs, and physical characteristics are condemned through the constructionist perspective. New to this edition: Two chapters on crime make clearer distinctions between criminalization of behavior, vs. criminal behavior itself More discussion of the relativity of deviance, including how murder is socially and legally constructed Expands the notion that conspiracy theory is a form of cognitive deviance New discussion furthers the difference between labeling theory and constructionism New Section on environmental pollution with reference to "green criminology" New section added on Deviance and Harm Newsworthy new features include: A Formerly Homeless Man Speaks Out Victimization and Abuse Mass Incarceration Stop and Frisk Missing Black Men? (with implications for families and demography) Arrest-Incarceration Gap Disparities in Sentencing The End of the Crime Decline?
