Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the accuracy of land surveying using the stadia method, which measures distance based on the angle between two lines of sight. The author provides a historical context for the use of stadia surveying, tracing its development and discussing its significance in the field of land measurement. The book explores the theoretical underpinnings of stadia surveying, examining factors that can affect the accuracy of measurements, such as atmospheric conditions and personal equation. Through practical experiments, the author demonstrates the potential accuracy of stadia measurements when these factors are taken into account. By comparing the stadia method to traditional transit and tape surveying, the book provides valuable insights into the relative advantages and disadvantages of each approach, particularly in terms of time and cost-effectiveness. The author concludes that while stadia surveying may not achieve the same level of precision as transit and tape surveying, it offers a viable option for surveying land with values below a certain threshold, making it a practical choice for a wide range of land surveying applications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The 1980s and 1990s have been a period of exciting new developments in the modelling of decision-making under risk and uncertainty. Extensions of the theory of expected utility and alternative theories of `non-expected utility' have been devised to explain many puzzles and paradoxes of individual and collective choice behaviour. This volume presents some of the best recent work on the modelling of risk and uncertainty, with applications to problems in environmental policy, public health, economics and finance. Eighteen papers by distinguished economists, management scientists, and statisticians shed new light on phenomena such as the Allais and St. Petersburg paradoxes, the equity premium puzzle, the demand for insurance, the valuation of public health and safety, and environmental goods. Audience: This work will be of interest to economists, management scientists, risk and policy analysts, and others who study risky decision-making in economic and environmental contexts.…

Hardback. Condizione: New. This unique book offers a unified approach to the modeling of rational decision-making under conditions of uncertainty and strategic and competitive interactions among agents. Its most elementary axiom of rationality is the principle of no-arbitrage, namely that neither an individual decision maker nor a small group of strategic competitors nor a large group of market participants should behave in such a way as to provide a riskless profit opportunity to an outside observer.Both those who work in the finance area and those who work in decision theory more broadly will be interested to find that basic tools from finance (arbitrage pricing and risk-neutral probabilities) have broader applications, including the modeling of uncertainty aversion, inseparable beliefs and tastes, nonexpected utility, ambiguity, and noncooperative games. The book emphasizes the use of money (rather than varieties of utility) in the quantification of rational economic thought. It provides not only a medium of exchange and an objective to maximize but also a language for cognition, interpersonal expression of preferences, aggregation of beliefs, and construction of common knowledge in terms of precise numbers. At the same time it provides an obvious standard of economic rationality that applies equally to individuals and groups: don't throw it away or allow your pocket to be picked. The modeling issues that arise here provide some perspective on issues that arise in quantitative modeling of decisions in which objects of choice are less concrete or higher-dimensional or more personal in nature. One of the book's key contributions is to show how noncooperative game theory can be directly unified with Bayesian decision theory and financial market theory without introducing separate assumptions about strategic rationality. The no-arbitrage standard of rationality leads straight to the conclusion that correlated equilibrium rather than Nash equilibrium is the fundamental solution concept, and risk-neutral probabilities come into play when agents are uncertainty-averse. The book also provides some history of developments in the field over the last century, emphasizing universal themes as well as controversies and paradigm shifts. It is written to be accessible to advanced undergraduates, graduate students, researchers in the field, and professionals.…

Softcover. Condizione: neu. 1. Auflage. Verfassungsrecht in Forschung und Praxis, Band 37 306 pages. Stichworte wie "elektronische Demokratie", "digitale Demokratie","E-democracy" prägen seit einigen Jahren die Diskussion in den Sozialwissenschaften, wenn es um die Frage geht, ob die neuen Medien und Kommunikationstechnologien für die Mitwirkung von Bürgern im politisch-demokratischen Prozess genutzt werden kà nnen. Obwohl sich Politik auch im Internet-Zeitalter vielfach noch analog abspielt, sind bereits vergleichsweise realistische Konzepte zur Einführung elektronischer Wahlen ("e-Voting") in verschiedenen Pilotprojekten mehr oder weniger erfolgreich den Praxisbedingungen ausgesetzt worden und haben erste technische Erfahrungen gebracht. Ob elektronische Wahlen rechtlich - also vor allem verfassungsrechtlich - überhaupt zulässig sind, ist jedoch nicht hinreichend geklärt. Der Autor untersucht daher die Frage, inwieweit die Einführung elektronischer Wahlen in ihren verschiedenen Varianten in der Bundesrepublik auf verfassungsrechtliche Hindernisse stà Ãt, die vor allem aus den Wahlrechtsgrundsätzen des Art. 38 Abs. 1 GG und ihrer gängigen Interpretation resultieren. Um sich der Fragestellung umfassend zu nähern, werden zunächst die "Basisvarianten elektronischen Wählens" vorgestellt. Die Studie beschränkt sich dabei nicht nur auf Onlinewahlen via Internet, sondern auch auf elektronische Stimmenzählgeräte, wie sie bereits bei Bundestagswahlen zum Einsatz gekommen sind. Dies umfasst ebenfalls internationale Aspekte des elektronischen Wählens. Bei der Darstellung der verfassungs- und wahlrechtlichen Grundlagen wird dann ein Weg aufgezeigt, wie elektronisches Wählen soausgestaltet werden kann, dass es den verfassungsrechtlichen Anforderungen genügt. In diesem Zusammenhang veranschaulicht die Untersuchung, welche Anforderungen an die Datensicherheit und den Datenschutz zu stellen sind, um die Integrität elektronischen Wählens zu gewährleisten.…
