A sixth bibliography of fractional programming

Abstract

This bibliography of fractional programming is a continuation of five previous bibliographies by the author (Pure Appl. Math. Sci. (India), Vol. XIII, No. 1–2, 35–69, March (1981); ibid. Vol. XVII, No. 1–2, 87–102, March (1983); ibid. XXII, No. 1–2, 109–122, September (1985); Optimization 23(1992)1, 53–71; ibid. 45(1999) 1–4, 343–367).

This compilation lists, in alphabetical order by the name of the first author, 491 papers dealing with fractional programming and its applications. This covers mainly the period 1997–2005 but it also includes some references published up to 1997 which were not included in the previous bibliographies or which were mentioned as ‘to appear’ in the five bibliography. In compiling this list we used Mathematical Reviews, Zentralblatt für Mathematik, Referativnyi Zhurnal (Matematika) and Current Papers on Computers & Control.

The papers are either published in some form (in technical journals or as internal reports) or are available only as typewritten manuscripts (for example, as doctoral theses or as papers presented at scientific sessions). If a work was first published as an internal report, and later in a technical journal, both publications are cited, since it may occasionally be easier for anyone seeking literature to find a copy of the internal report.

The organization of the bibliography is the same as that used previously i.e., the references are classified into one or more of 15 sections by their basic contents and there is an author index in alphabetical order. In an undertaking of this scope and nature some errors are inevitable, despite elaborate precautions and checks. The author will be grateful for any corrections, additions or comments about this bibliography.
