Published in print edition November, 2009

The techniques of computer modelling and simulation are increasingly important in many fields of science

since they allow quantitative examination and evaluation of the most complex hypothesis. Furthermore, by
taking advantage of the enormous amount of computational resources available on modern computers

scientists are able to suggest scenarios and results that are more significant than ever. This book brings
together recent work describing novel and advanced modelling and analysis techniques applied to many
different research areas.
