Part I provides prerequisite information for using optimization in practice. Specifically, we need to use software and we need to have some basic knowledge of mathematics. This book uses Matlab as a computational tool. If you are new to Matlab or do not know it yet, Chapter 1 will provide you with the preparatory information to get started. If your mathematics knowledge is a bit rusty, Chapter 2 will provide you with the preparatory knowledge for optimization application.
Specifically, the topics presented, with the chapter numbers, are given below:
Matlab® as a Computation Tool
Mathematical Preliminaries
