In order to fully apprehend the conceptual aspects of the world, we need to look at the practical applications of those concepts, as the book provides a popular application of the wondrously captivating mathematical concept of group theory. For most of us laymen, mathematics is conceived primarily as arithmetic, something to do with quantities. However, the real beauty of mathematics emerges when it is about qualities and relations. Maths helps us to understand bewildering complexities of life and the universe, from basic particles to infinite galaxies. It is this fundamental scientific understanding that transforms into the applications that eventually yield constructive change in the world. The wide overview of this book gives generously, both to those who seek the purity of understanding, and those who are attracted to hands-on applications.

This book presents a comprehensive overview of the computerized core monitoring techniques currently employed at pressurized water reactor (PWR) and boiling water reactor (BWR) nuclear power plants. It also offers a brief overview of the corresponding techniques at research and materials testing reactors. The book combines detailed descriptions of the theoretical background and fundamental underlying principles as well as the practical applications of core surveillance. It not only provides numerous industrial examples to illustrate how complex computerized systems are able to support the safe operation of nuclear reactors, but also outlines some new application areas that were made possible only by state-of-the-art computing resources. Thanks to its practical approach, it serves as a valuable and practical reference book for readers interested in the surveillance of nuclear reactors, ranging from undergraduate and postgraduate students to researchers and experts working at research reactors and nuclear power plants, as well as at nuclear regulatory authorities.
