Abstract

Appendix 198 Annex C. Computational Aspects of Using GAMS 198 My thanks are addressed to De Gruyter, the publisher, for its decisive financial support for publishing this monograph. I would like to acknowledge De Gruyter editors for their diligent and meticulous work to render this book scientifically understandable. I thank the University of Information Technology and Management in Rzeszów for its assistance and its support of my research. I am grateful to my former supervisor, M. Rocki, for his precious advice during the writing of the document. My particular thanks go to L. Tomasiewicz and J. Boratyński, both from the Łódź Department of Econometrics, for their technical advice on Polish National Accounts. Impressive work has been carried out by J. Kwapień and S. Drożdż, both specialists in thermodynamic statistics, who have identified omissions and errors over a large part of the book during the middle stage of its redaction. To them, I express all my gratitude. I express my thanks to A. Jakimowicz for his precious review comments. My thanks go also to the research institution Clersé at the University of Lille I in France, and in particular to N. Vaneecloo for having arranged my fruitful stay in that institution during my sabbatical year 2010-2011. I would like to thank F. Scheuren for having particularly increased my interest in the theory of information through the rich literature on the subject which was made available to me. Without the many months of sacrifice of M. Bloom for making this document readable, the publication of this work would not have been possible. Many thanks to all the other persons from my institution who at different levels have contributed directly or indirectly to improve the quality of this book. To all these people, I am most grateful, and for any errors or shortcomings which may remain in this book, they are absolved from all blame.
