    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The work focuses on the question of the regional economic development of the part of Russia with unique location within the EU territory the region of Kaliningrad. The region has a relatively short but eventful history as a Russian exclave. A small territory has been facing numerous challenges in its development owing to the region s detachment from the mainland. In addition to this, the position between two major players on European arena the EU and Russia defined a particular political significance of the small region. The objectives of the work are to understand specifics of development of small territories surrounded by other states and to define challenges the territories have to tackle; to apply theoretical findings for analyzing a particular case of the detached part of Russian territory Kaliningrad and to identify future prospects for the region. The main findings comprise several future prospects for the Russian region of Kaliningrad in the view of its specific geopolitical position which implies intricate combination of such factors as EU Russia relationship, WTO expansion, energy prices and globalization. 72 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The post-communist interaction between crossborder actors such as dual citizens, crossborder voters, migrant associations, twin municipalities, minority parties, NGO s, local political structures, elections and capital extends into a new crossborder site based on multiple citizenship rights and duties and transnational democratic participation. This process hampers the state- imposed bounded groupness and reveals the fluidity and multiplicity of the crossborder identifications. As political site and identity constituted through discursive and interdiscursive practices across national borders, crossborderness may develop as a basis for further promotion of crossborder democracy and lasting governmentality across national sites. 104 pp. Englisch. …

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Why did IMF conditionality prove to be successful in Bulgaria only after 1997, although it was present before Drawing on IMF documents, internal governmental reports and an inter-temporal analysis of three phases of relationship between the IMF and the Bulgarian government, it is argued in this book that the success of IMF conditions requires that conditionality meets linkage. The interests of the Bulgarian policy makers and the IMF coincided after 1997 when the government announced its primary goal - EU membership. Thus, the EU served as an outside anchor , which relieved both, in addition to IMF, financial and political constraints to economic reform. 112 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The transition process has profoundly affected schooling and labour market decision-making in all transition economies, including Kosova. Concentrating upon the case of Kosova, we investigate: (i) the demand for education, (ii) the labour supply, (iii) the private returns to education and the probability of being employed, and (iv) the determinants of emigration decisions and of the probability of remitting by emigrants. The analytical framework that we utilise takes full account of the distinctive features of the Kosovan economy. It treats the economic outcomes in Kosova (e.g. low participation in education, high unemployment and inactivity, large-scale emigration) as also constituting development challenges rather than only transitional outcomes. We specifically investigate gender and urban/rural differences as these raise specific developmental concerns. In a number of cases, our findings suggest the need for a different analytical framework and policy packages to interpret and promote economic development in Kosova. This is the first systematic study of these issues in a post-socialist and post-conflict society such as Kosova. 248 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis investigates the utility of transforming the Institutional Army through the use of corporate business models. This study finds that working corporate models, such as Lean Six Sigma (LSS), are available which are already enabling the transformation of a very specific aspect within the institutional Army. The research has also shown that other civilian models can be applied to the Institutional Army as well, such as enterprise resource planning systems (ERP) and information networks (IN). Clearly, each one of these civilian models brings different capabilities to the Institutional Army. 80 pp. Englisch. …

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Demands on water supplies in the arid west are continuing to grow even though most rivers are already fully appropriated. Agriculture being the largest and least valued user of this resource will continue to be targeted to fulfill these increased demands. For water supplies to be transferred efficiently from agriculture to other beneficial uses it is necessary to determine the value of water in agriculture across different regions, uses, and legal structures. This study develops a Discrete Sequential Stochastic Programming (DSSP) model to value irrigation water in five agriculturally distinct regions throughout the Platte River Basin. The expected long run value of irrigation water is found and the model is used to interpret the changes in water value due to specific water supply conditions. The results clearly indicate how the value of water in agriculture increases significantly as the water supply decreases. In addition, the results of this study indicate which regions of the Platte River Basin might be able to provide the most cost effective source of water for preserving threatened and endangered species. 64 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Inflation targeting has been rather a contravesial topic in economies like South Africa where it seemingly has proved to be a success in managing macroeconomic variables. Notwithstanding the various challenges that have come with it, I consider formal inflation targeting to be by far a more transparent way of conducting monetary policy. It is broad based in the sense it has important requisites before it can work successfully and therefore the notion that it is too focused on 'merely an inflation figure' may not be too valid. It is somewhat predictable and I think that modern day markets play along in an appropriate way. There is however deep scope for new thoughts on the subjest matter especially in the context of the recent global meltdown. 68 pp. Englisch.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -As the population of the Philippines continues to grow, poverty and civil unrest is widespread on the island of Mindanao. Mindanao's poverty can be attributed largely to past migration and economic policies of the Philippines government that delayed economic growth. Furthermore, since independence was obtained from the United States in 1946, the condition of life of Mindanao's poor has worsened due to such factors as internal conflicts between government forces and secessionist movements. This paper sheds some light on the dilemma of poverty, government policies, migration and civil unrest on Mindanao, southern Philippines. 108 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -After a peak in the demand for housing which led to rising property prices at the time of the German reunification in 1990, the subsequent construction boom in the mid 1990s resulted in declining prices for residential real estate, seemingly above all in Eastern Germany. An interesting question in this respect is how heavily potential investments in separately-owned flats undertaken at the beginning of the 1990s might be impaired by this drop in rentals and property prices. Since, at that time, these investments were promoted by high tax benefits, a special focus of this book lies on considering the tax effects of such investments. After-tax calculations for Magdeburg, Leipzig, and Erfurt, and also for two cities in the former federal area were performed by using data on average rentals and property prices of typified flats. It is shown that even despite falling rentals and decreasing property values it was still possible to generate profits over the period from 1992-2002 due to generous tax subsidies. The case study might not only be interesting for investors in residential real property but also for professionals in real estate industry and consulting firms. 116 pp. Englisch.…

Often they are said to be the realization of the curriculum in practice. The goal of promoting gender equality is stated in the Finnish core curricula, but what kind of gender ideologies are actually learned in school Earlier textbook studies on representations of gender have confirmed bias and projection of stereotypical views and beliefs especially on female characters. But are the textbooks of today different How are men and women, boys and girls portrayed What characteristics, interests, action and roles are assigned to males and females What types of linguistic, visual, and editorial choices contribute to the process of constructing gender ideology This book presents an analysis of five EFL textbook series, spells out the methodological framework and provides illustrative examples of the textbook contents. 116 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Individuals that have a sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI) often exhibit linguistic impairments, such as narrative discourse (storytelling) deficits. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are responsible for diagnosing and treating these deficits. Prior to treatment, the SLP conducts an evaluation, in order to identify specific areas to treat. Currently, a limited number of resources exist for eliciting and evaluating narrative discourse in adults with TBI. Traditional methods involve using picture prompts taken from standardized language tests and asking the patient to tell a story about the picture. The SLP then uses clinical judgment to evaluate the patient s narrative. This study explores the use of personal photographs as picture prompts and a standardized checklist for evaluating the elicited narrative. This study compares the quality of narratives elicited using the a traditional picture prompt and a personal photograph. Results of this study provide useful information for SLPs or any other professionals, working with individuals with TBI, including students. This study may be an additional resource for friends and family members of individuals with TBI. 68 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book reproduces the PhD by Publication of Michael Richards, Natural Resources Economist with Forest Trends and formerly of the Overseas Development Institute. Dr Richards traces 13 key publications on the sustainable management and conservation (SFM) of tropical forests. Deforestation contributes significantly to climate change, and causes serious environmental and social costs. Conversely, SFM has the potential to deliver 'win-win' outcomes in the form of environmental and poverty reduction benefits. The author argues that such 'win-win' outcomes will only emerge when the underlying market, policy and institutional failures that drive deforestation are tackled, and the public good nature of tropical forests is fully recognised. He concludes that the only solution is a balanced market (especially payments for ecosystem services) and supply-side (particularly improved governance and tenure security) response. Current opportunities surrounding avoided deforestation or Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD) provide what may be the last chance for much of the remaining tropical forests, and require such a balanced approach to be effective and equitable. 84 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Forages represent the most important, cost effective feed resource in ruminant nutrition. However, the relatively low quality of forages militates against their use as the sole feed for actively growing or high-performing ruminants. Several methods have been used to improve forage quality, and therefore animal performance, by chemical or biological treatments. Fibrolytic enzyme application is one of the most studied biological treatments for improving forage quality and animal performance. Such enzymes have been effective at improving the utilization of a wide range of diets containing roughages due to improved fiber hydrolysis which often results in increased digestibility, voluntary intake and animal performance. However, results of enzyme effectiveness still been controversial. There are several factors that contribute to this controversy, and all these factors are discussed in this book, and it elucidates if these products are really effective for improving forage quality and animal performance. 116 pp. Englisch.…

The researcher had become increasingly concerned about her students skipping breakfast, and therefore finding it difficult to concentrate. The choice of breakfast foods at college were often unhealthy options, such as a bag of crisps or bar of chocolate. Students seemed to be influencing one another a lot on their choice of breakfast. Students sometimes reduce the exercise they do, become obsessed with their weight and can lead poor lifestyles. As there had been limited research carried out with college students about their breakfast routines, the researcher wanted to find out from them why they make the choices they do, and what factors influence their routines. Recommendations were made following the findings 112 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -We consider the correlation clustering problem which was initially introduced by Bansal, Blum, Chawla et al. Given a complete graph G on n vertices, with weights of +1 or -1 defined on the edges, we want to find a partition which maximizes the sum of the number of edges with positive weights inside the clusters plus the number of edges with negative weights between different clusters. In this thesis we present a deterministic polynomial time approximation scheme for finding such a partition. Our approach is different from the one given by Bansal, Blum, Chawla et al. as it relies on the Szemeredi's Regularity Lemma. We start by introducing the problem, then we introduce the concepts of regularity lemma and give a proof of Szemeredi's Regularity Lemma. Then we present the algorithm and the proof of the correctness of the algorithm. 64 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) is a unique polymeric material with properties and functional performance similar to those of a conventional vulcanized rubber; still it can be processed in a molten state as a thermoplastic polymer. The unique characteristics of TPEs make them very useful and attractive alternatives for conventional elastomers in a variety of markets, such as automotives, buildings and constructions, wires and cables etc. Thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs) are a special class of TPEs, produced by simultaneously mixing and crosslinking a rubber with a thermoplastic. TPVs based on PP/EPDM blends are the most important from a commercial viewpoint. When a peroxide is added as the crosslinking agent to a PP/EPDM blend, two competing processes take place simultaneously: EPDM crosslinking and PP degradation by chain scission. Therefore, there is a need for a proper peroxide in combination with a suitable co-agent to diminish the extent of PP degradation and improve the degree of EPDM crosslinking. The author addressed the understanding of the behaviour of various peroxides including multifunctional peroxides on the performance properties of the TPVs. 112 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Neural networks have a proven ability to learn complex data sets, but suffer from the amount of processing time required for large based networks. FPGAs, which have become commonplace since their inception, offer the academic community a way of achieving real-time computation due to their parallel nature. Unfortunately, floating-point neural networks require large amounts of gate space, which in turn results in having to utilise an expensive FPGA. Fractional FPGA Neural Networks explores an alternative numeric system, where integer based fractions are used in the computations, rather than floating point. The book focuses on a number of issues and solutions with such a method, including modified training mechanisms. Finally, a case study of emotion recognition is explored. This book should be especially useful to academics seeking real-time computation networks, or even looking at alternative ideas for neural network design. Professionals in industry, exploring a practical solution to their data learning issues may also find the subject appealing, along with a wider community interested in researching into neural networks. 228 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The industrial development is vital for the economic growth of a country. The metallurgy, electronics and ternary industries are very important industries. The major draws back of these industries is the pollution that causes cancer, kidney disorders and metal toxicity and have become the world wide problems. This book is based on the methods to control metal pollution. Based on the methods described in this book, a model cell is designed which can be installed to individual homes, offices, electronics or leather industries to remove and recycle the heavy metals from their effluents. The designed cell can also be used to recover precious metals from their impure solutions. The technique of electrolysis is coupled with ultrasound and with resins has enhanced the current efficiency and substantially reduced the cost of energy consumption. This sono-electrolytic cell is much more effective and less expensive than the cost of the medicines consumed to recover the patients suffering from water born diseases. 108 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Semi-Markov processes (SMP) are powerful stochastic tools for modeling reliability measures over time. This work precisely aims at proposing more efficient mathematical and numerical treatments for SMP in continuous time. The first approach (called 2N-) is based on transition frequency densities and general quadrature methods. The other proposed method (in short Lap-) applies Laplace transforms that are inverted by a Gaussian quadrature method known as Gauss Legendre to obtain the state probabilities in time domain. Mathematical formulation of these approaches as well as descriptions of their numerical treatment are developed and provided with details. The effectiveness of the novel 2N- and Lap- developments is validated by using examples in the context of oil industries. It is shown that the 2N- and Lap- approaches are significantly less time- consuming and have comparable accuracy to Monte Carlo simulation based solution. 108 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book describes the application of simulation techniques to the operational test and evaluation (OT&E) of command support systems (CSS). OT&E is essential for ensuring that systems are effective, suitable for service and meet the end users' needs. Simulation can be used in OT&E to simulate entities that cannot be obtained for real-world OT&E and to evaluate the effectiveness of systems in controlled environments. This book defines the relationships between command and control (C2), CSS, systems engineering, verification and validation, OT&E and modelling and simulation. This book describes how simulation techniques have been used to improve OT&E of CSS and how simulation models are verified, validated and accredited. This book describes how the effectiveness of an OT&E program can be measured in terms of its cost effectiveness with respect to gathering evidence to support the resolution of critical operational issues (COIs). This book describes a proposed methodology for applying simulation in OT&E of CSS to help gather data to resolve COIs when it is impractical to conduct sufficient real-world OT&E to gather sufficient data to resolve COIs. 104 pp. Englisch. …

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Nowadays hi-tech secure products need more services and more security. Furthermore the corresponding market is now oriented towards more flexibility. In this thesis we propose as novel solution a Multi-algorithm Cryptographic Co-processor called Celator. Celator is able to encrypt or decrypt data blocks using private key encryption algorithms such as Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or Data Encryption Standard (DES). Moreover Celator allows condensing data using the Secure Hash Algorithms (SHA). These algorithms are frequently implemented in hi-tech secure products in software or in hardware mode. Celator belongs to the class of the flexible hardware implementations, and allows an user implementing its own cryptographic algorithm under specific conditions. Celator architecture is based on a 4x4 Processing Elements (PE) systolic array, a Controller with a Finite State Machine (FSM) and a local memory. Data are encrypted or decrypted by the PE array. This thesis presents Celator architecture, as well as its AES, DES, and SHA basic operations. Celator performances are then given and compared to other securitycircuits. 108 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis concerns the usage of intelligent agents to search the Internet to identify possible infringements of and legal impediments to the procurement of intellectual property, such as existing or proposed patents, trademarks, and copyrights. The agent can utilize any of the known artificial intelligence models, such as expert systems, case-based reasoning, and fuzzy logic, and can return a ranked list of located data relevant to the searched intellectual property. A trademark search agent model is proposed that will account for differences between an input trademark, expand the search terms in an expansive heuristic manner, locate relevant data based upon the input and expanded terms, and return the most relevant terms located in a hierarchical format of relevancy. A patent intelligent search agent is proposed which can simulate the combinatory logic used by patent examiners to reject patent applications as being merely a collection of known elements. 88 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The search for novel phases in strongly correlated systems is one of the most active frontiers in contemporary condensed matter physics. In this thesis the author explores the ground state phases of correlated electrons in one-dimension, modelled by the extended Hubbard model at half-filling, focusing on the novel bond-order-wave phase at small to intermediate couplings - a previously unknown phase whose existence was conclusively established by the author and his co-workers. The second problem studied involves the Peierls transition in correlated electrons interacting with finite frequency phonons.Both these topics have direct relevance to modelling and thus gaining an understanding of the properties of real quasi one-dimensional materials. An important aspect of the thesis is the in-depth exposition of the Stochastic Series Expansion (SSE) - a quantum Monte Carlo method that has, in the recent years, evolved into one of the most powerful computational techniques to study strongly correlated systems. The author has contributed to the development of the method and as such has a unique perspective which is bound to benefit anyone planning to learn SSE. 116 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The influx of international graduate students in science and engineering (S&E) to the U.S. has changed since the terrorist attacks of 2001. The implementation of the SEVIS and related F-1 visa policies have required a higher level of scrutiny of the student visa procedures and introduced strict student monitoring policies. SEVIS monitoring and compliance has altered the operation of international student service offices, affected the students they serve, and the operation of the universities enrolling international students. This study investigated the effects of SEVIS on graduate programs in S&E and their students. Information was gathered from respondents of the 60 universities having the highest population of international students in these fields, as per NSF. The results of this study suggest that many international students are negatively affected by SEVIS, impacting their ability to remain in-status and to understand how the system works. To counter this, school professionals have increased their level of support for these students, providing them guidance on how to remain in-status and how to improve their social and academic experience in the U.S. 288 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The original purpose of this work was to try to meet the demands posed by the new national curriculum. However, during the process the focus was shifted towards the learning process itself and school as a learning organization. At the beginning students learning in groups, students motivation and understanding of their own learning was seen as most important. But also the teachers who tried to implement problem based learning as a teaching method noticed that their way of thinking changed; they learned how to teach. This process, learning as an implication of working together as a team, became the most important part of my study. The teachers experiences of the workshops they organized for primary school teachers were especially valuable considering present and future action. The different culture of primary schools when compared to secondary schools became visible. As the primary and lower secondary schools now are combined to a comprehensive school this difference in culture must be recognized. 244 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -When Joseph Campbell introduced his idea of the monomyth or Hero's Journey in The Hero with a Thousand Faces, he used examples of main charachters from folklore, myths and legends. Although his idea seemed to apply to the heroes in these stories, it wasn't certain that it could be transferred to apply to heroes in common literature. This book means to test two things: whether his ideas of the monomyth apply to fakelore as well, and also whether other charachters aside from main charachters have a hero's journey too. The reader will be given information on both Joseph Campbell's theory as well as Tolkien's the Lord of the Rings before an extensive analysis of five charachters: Frodo, Sam, Aragorn, Eowyn and Gandalf. This should be especially useful for anyone interested in the use of Campbell's theory in literature and writing. 92 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis, which utilizes both postcolonial and feminist frameworks, details the value of a widely- popularized text like Andre Dubus III s House of Sand and Fog in academic discourse. Employing mainly the works of Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak and Chandra Talpade Mohanty, the study explains how Dubus work exposes issues of internal colonization in America for both immigrants like the Iranian Behrani family in the novel and white, less recently immigrated citizens. In addition, it acknowledges the value of distinguishing between First and Third World feminisms when working with a text like House of Sand and Fog. Through exploring issues of language, identity, class, race, sex, economic opportunity, and physical space, it argues for an opening of Dubus text that acknowledges the suppression of voice endured in separate and distinct ways by both immigrant and female voices in America. Ultimately, this thesis encourages a reconsideration of a somewhat overlooked text, as far as academic discourse is concerned, and a rejuvenation of interest in Dubus' novel. 72 pp. Englisch.…

    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In recent years, a change has been made in the education field to move away from tests, which merely measure memorization. As a result, critical thinking assessments have emerged, mainly in the form of essays. The overall action research question of this study addressed whether enabling 10th grade Social Studies students to create authentic Document- Based Essay Questions be the catalyst for higher student achievement and a more positive attitude towards completing Social Studies DBQs. An authentic assignment was given to students designed to assess their ability to apply standard-driven knowledge and skills to real-world challenges. The literature review contains research articles that have examined the authenticity of DBQs and how creating authentic tasks can lead to greater conceptual understanding and student achievement in a high school social studies setting. The methodology devised for this research project was firmly grounded in the criticism and suggestions of Grant et al. (2005) with regards to the Regents Document Based Question and the Create-Your-Own DBQ activity of Kotzin (2001). 120 pp. Englisch.…
