Synopsis
The mathematics of tournament design are surprisingly subtle, and this book, an extensively revised version of Ellis Horwood's popular Combinatorial Designs: Construction Methods, provides a thorough introduction. It includes a new chapter on league schedules, which discusses round robin tournaments, venue sequences, and carry-over effects. It also discusses balanced tournament designs, double schedules, and bridge and whist tournament design. Readable and authoritative, the book emphasizes throughout the historical development of the material and includes numerous examples and exercises giving detailed constructions.

Review
`This is an outstanding book that deals with many classical combinatorial problems as well as much recent research not readily available in book form... Much of the research ... is due to the author and his collaborators.'

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This is an extensively revised version of the very successfulCombinatorial Designs: Construction Methods which was published in 1990 by Ellis Horwood and is now out of print. A new chapter on league schedules is now included, dealing with round robin tournaments, venue sequences, and carry over effects. Balanced tournament designs, double schedules, and bridge tournament designs are also covered, and there is some material on whist tournaments.The presentation is clear and reable. Throughout, the historical development of the material is emphasized. There are plenty of examples and exercises giving detailed constructions, and a copiousbibliography is provided. The author is internationally respected as an expositor, and this book provides an excellent text and reference book for researchers. This book has two aims: first, to present some of the basic material on block designs and orthogonal Latin squares; and, secondly, to give an account of the construction of league tables, bridge tournaments (via balanced Room squares) and whist tournaments. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780198500292
