Delay Differential Equations: Recent Advances and New Directions cohesively presents contributions from leading experts on the theory and applications of functional and delay differential equations (DDEs).

Researchers will benefit from a unique focus on theory, symbolic, and numerical methods, which illustrate how the concepts described can be applied to practical systems ranging from automotive engines to remote control over the Internet. Comprehensive coverage of recent advances paired with analytical contributions are included, in addition to computational techniques and illustrative examples of the application of current results drawn from biology, physics, mechanics, and control theory.
