Since the publication of the first edition of Network Economics: A Variational Inequality Approach in 1993, there have been many ad vances in both methodological developments, as well as, applications in this field. These have occurred in an environment of an increasingly networked global economy, in which the importance of transportation networks and communication networks is now well-recognized, with net works such as knowledge networks, environmental networks, and finan cial networks receiving growing attention. This edition adds recent research progress in new and evolving ar eas of network economics through common and unifying principles.

(Equilibrium is a concept used in operations research and ...)
Equilibrium is a concept used in operations research and economics to understand the interplay of factors and problems arising from competitive systems in the economic world. The problems in this area are large and complex and have involved a variety of mathematical methodologies.

(Financial analysis is concerned with the study of capital...)
Financial analysis is concerned with the study of capital flows over time and space. This book presents a new theory of multi-sector, multi-instrument financial systems based on the visualization of such systems as networks.

This book cogently addresses the question as to whether transportation networks are sustainable: that is, can they last, given the growing demands on the network, on the one hand, and the desire to alleviate the associated negative impacts, on the other.

The advent of the Information Age has transformed the ways in which individuals work, travel, and conduct their daily activity. Anna Nagurney and June Dong lay out the theory of supernetworks, networks that exist over and above existing electronic networks, in order to formalize decision-making in the Information Age. Supernetworks are conceptual in scope, graphical in perspective, and, with the accompanying theory, predictive in nature.

Networks provide the foundation for the functioning of our societies and economies. Their study has had a long tradition in such fields as engineering, operations research, management science and computer science. More recently, the disciplines of finance and economics have come to be rich and fascinating sources of network-based problems and applications. This focused and refereed volume of contributions from leading international scholars provides a wealth of innovations in the study of financial and economic networks.

This book is the first to bring an economics perspective in a rigorous manner to complex decision-making in the management of supply chains. It provides the foundations for the modeling of the interrelationships among decision-makers in supply chains, ranging from manufacturers, distributors, and retailers, to the consumers, assuming individualized behavior.

Anna Nagurney was born in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
Anna Nagurney received a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics and a Bachelor of Arts in Russian Language and Literature in 1977, a Master of Science in 1980, and a Ph.D. in 1983, all from Brown University.
Anna Nagurney devotes her career to education and research that combines operations research / management science, engineering, and economics. Her focus is the applied and theoretical aspects of network systems, particularly in the areas of transportation and logistics, critical infrastructure, and in economics and finance.
She was a Distinguished Guest Visiting Professor at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm and has also held Visiting appointments at MIT (at the Center for Transportation and the Sloan School of Management) and at Brown University and was a Science Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard University in 2005-2006.
Professor Nagurney served on the Advisory Council of the Society for Computational Economics from 2007 until 2010. During March 2008, Professor Nagurney was a Senior Fulbright Specialist in Business Administration at the University of Catania in Italy. In 2008, she was appointed a consultant to the World Bank. The same year, she led the conference, Humanitarian Logistics: Networks for Africa, under the auspices of the Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Conference and Study Center programs. She was appointed an Instructor in the Office of Executive Education at Harvard University in 2009.
The same year, she was a selected panelist on Traffic at the World Science Festival in New York City and, in 2011, was an invited panelist at the Transportation Research Board meeting and at the AAAS meeting, both of which took place in Washington DC. She was the Chair of the 2011 RSAI Fellow Selection Committee. Professor Nagurney is a participant in the INFORMS Speaker Program and from 2011-2012 was the Chair of the INFORMS Speaker Program.
Also, she was the convener of the symposium Dynamics of Disasters at the 2013 AAAS Annual Meeting in Boston. On April 25, 2013, she was a featured panelist on Transport and Traffic at The New York Times Energy for Tomorrow Conference with the theme Building Sustainable Cities. She has given plenary and invited talks in Austria, Germany, Ukraine, Argentina, Colombia, Switzerland, China, Sweden, Italy, Canada, New Zealand, the US, and other countries. Professor Nagurney has served on numerous prize and award committees both as a committee member and as Chair.
Nagurney is the editor of the book series, New Dimensions in Networks (Edward Elgar Publishing), and the co-editor of the book series, Advances in Computational Economics (Springer). She is also on the editorial boards of several journals. Her most recent book, Dynamics of Disasters - Algorithmic Approaches and Applications, which she edited with I.S. Kotsireas and P.M. Pardalos, was published by Springer International Publishing Switzerland in 2018. She also co-edited the book, Dynamics of Disasters—Key Concepts, Models, Algorithms, and Insights, published by Springer International Publishing Switzerland in 2016. She authored Competing on Supply Chain Quality: A Network Economics Perspective, with D. Li, published by Springer International Publishing Switzerland in 2016, and Networks Against Time: Supply Chain Analytics for Perishable Products, with M. Yu, A.H. Masoumi, and L.S. Nagurney, published in 2013 by Springer Science + Business Media, NYC.
