Designed for engineers, computer scientists, and physicists or for use as a textbook in computational courses, Applied Linear Algebra & Optimization Using MATLAB, provides the reader with numerous applications, m-files, and practical examples to solve problems. Balancing theoretical concepts with computational speed and accuracy, the book includes numerous short programs in MATLAB that can be used to solve problems involving systems of linear equations, matrices, vectors, computer graphics, and more. The book is accompanied by a CD-ROM with all of the figures, m-files for all of the programs, and MATLAB simulations from industry. Complete solutions and Microsoft PowerPoint slides are available to instructors for use as a textbook.

Brief Table of Contents: 1. Matrices and Linear Systems. 2. Iterative Methods for Linear Systems. 3. The Eigenvalue Problems. 4. Numerical Computation of Eigenvalues. 5. Interpolation and Approximation. 6. Linear Programming. 7. Nonlinear Programming. Appendices. About the CD-ROM.       

Rizwan Butt holds a PhD from the University of Leeds, and currently he is an associate professor at the King Saud University.
