One of the aims of the conference on which this book is based, was to provide a platform for the exchange of recent findings and new ideas inspired by the so-called <IT>Hungarian construction</IT> and other approximate methodologies. This volume of 55 papers is dedicated to Mikl̤s Cs̲rg and odblac; a co-founder of the <IT>Hungarian construction school</IT> by the invited speakers and contributors to ICAMPS'97. This excellent treatize reflects the many developments in this field, while pointing to new directions to be explored. An unequalled contribution to research in probability and statistics.
