Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the theoretical foundations and applications of military operational logistics (OpLog). OpLog theory has two facets: qualitative and quantitative.The qualitative facet is imbedded in the theory of operational lev…el of war or operational art. It includes principles, imperatives and tenets, which are stated and analyzed in the first few chapters. The quantitative facet relates to the scientific aspects of OpLog. It is manifested by formal network models representing structural and operational features of an OpLog system. The book examines the two facets and integrates them into a unified presentation. Important OpLog applications a re described and discussed.Chapter 1 presents a general introduction to military logistics. Chapter 2 discusses the px;font-family: monospace;'>general structure and characteristics of logistics and describes its three levels - strategic, operational and tactical. Chapter 3 describes the foundation of OpLog. Chapter 4 deals with OpLog planning. Chapter 5 addresses the issue of logistic information, and Chapter 6 deals with forecasting logistic demands.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The most original and ground-breaking work on Beowulf in several decades, this book uses 'lexomic' methods that blend computer-assisted statistical analysis with traditional approaches to reveal new and surprising information about the co…nstruction and sources of the greatest surviving Old English poem. Techniques of cluster analysis identify patterns of vocabulary distribution that indicate robust similarities and differences among segments of the poem. The correlation of these patterns with knowledge gained from source-study, philological analysis, and neglected previous scholarship sheds new light on the material of which Beowulf was made and the way it was composed. The implications of this investigation for the dating, structure, and cultural context of Beowulf will overturn the current scholarly consensus and significantly improve our understanding of the poem, its nature, and origins. 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book introduces a new way of analyzing, measuring and thinking about mega-risks, a ¿paradigm shift¿ that moves from single-solutions to multiple competitive solutions and strategies. ¿Robust simulation¿ is a statistical approach t…hat demonstrates future risk through simulation of a suite of possible answers.To arrive at this point, the book systematically walks through the historical statistical methods for evaluating risks. The first chapters deal with three theories of probability and statistics that have been dominant in the 20th century, along with key mathematical issues and dilemmas.The book then introduces ¿robust simulation¿ which solves the problem of measuring the stability of simulated losses, incorporates outliers, and simulates future risk through a suite of possible answers and stochastic modeling of unknown variables.This book discusses various analytical methods for utilizing divergent solutions in making pragmatic financial and risk-mitigation decisions.The book emphasizes the importance of flexibility and attempts to demonstrate that alternative credible approaches are helpful and required in understanding a great many phenomena.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 188 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -How can we optimize differentiating business processes and exploit their full potential Here Volker Stiehl provides answers, utilizing the various options that the BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) standard offers for planning…, implementing and monitoring processes.The book presents an approach for implementing an architecture for applications that strives to find a balance between development and maintenance costs, sustainability, scalability and fault tolerance; that meets flexibility requirements without becoming inordinately complex itself; and that keeps the end application as abstract as possible from the system landscape in which it operates. Based on the semantic enhancements found in version 2.0 of the BPMN standard, which have made it possible to execute process models, his approach exploits BPMN to create and run complete application architectures. In this context, BPMN is not just used to model the business processes of the application, as the ¿B¿ in BPMN might suggest; but also to model and execute the integration processes between the systems. Throughout the book, the software package SAP Process Orchestration is used to illustrate the implementation of the proposed architecture, yet all recommendations are intentionally kept generic so that they can be implemented on any other comparable platform as well.Software architects, IT managers, software developers and project managers, as well as students of information and business technology will find the book a valuable resource. The proposed application architecture offers them a detailed blueprint, the principles of which they can use to plan and implement process-driven distributed applications.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 352 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -In April 2007, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) approved the Priority Program 1324 ¿Mathematical Methods for Extracting Quantifiable Information from Complex Systems.¿ This volume presents a comprehensive overview of the most…important results obtained over the course of the program. Mathematical models of complex systems provide the foundation for further technological developments in science, engineering and computational finance. Motivated by the trend toward steadily increasing computer power, ever more realistic models have been developed in recent years. These models have also become increasingly complex, and their numerical treatment poses serious challenges. Recent developments in mathematics suggest that, in the long run, much more powerful numerical solution strategies could be derived if the interconnections between the different fields of research were systematically exploited at a conceptual level. Accordingly, a deeper understanding of the mathematical foundations as well as the development of new and efficient numerical algorithms were among the main goals of this Priority Program. The treatment of high-dimensional systems is clearly one of the most challenging tasks in applied mathematics today. Since the problem of high-dimensionality appears in many fields of application, the above-mentioned synergy and cross-fertilization effects were expected to make a great impact. To be truly successful, the following issues had to be kept in mind: theoretical research and practical applications had to be developed hand in hand; moreover, it has proven necessary to combine different fields of mathematics, such as numerical analysis and computational stochastics. To keep the whole program sufficiently focused, we concentrated on specific but related fields of application that share common characteristics and as such, they allowed us to use closely related approaches.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 460 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -This self-tutorial offers a concise yet thorough introduction into the mathematical analysis of approximation methods for partial differential equation. A particular emphasis is put on finite element methods. The unique approach first…summarizes and outlines the finite-element mathematics in general and then in the second and major part, formulates problem examples that clearly demonstrate the techniques of functional analysis via numerous and diverse exercises. The solutions of the problems are given directly afterwards. Using this approach, the author motivates and encourages the reader to actively acquire the knowledge of finite- element methods instead of passively absorbing the material as in most standard textbooks. This English edition is based on the Finite Element Methods for Engineering Sciences by Joel Chaskalovic.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 372 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -By using various data inputs, ubiquitous computing systems detect their current usage context, automatically adapt their services to the user¿s situational needs and interact with other services or resources in their environment on an…ad-hoc basis.Designing such self-adaptive, context-aware knowledge processing systems is, in itself, a formidable challenge. This book presents core findings from the VENUS project at the Interdisciplinary Research Center for Information System Design (ITeG) at Kassel University, where researchers from different fields, such as computer science, information systems, human-computer interaction and law, together seek to find general principles and guidelines for the design of socially aware ubiquitous computing systems. To this end, system usability, user trust in the technology and adherence to privacy laws and regulations were treated as particularly important criteria in the context of socio-technical system design.During the project, a comprehensive blueprint for systematic, interdisciplinary software development was developed, covering the particular functional and non-functional design aspects of ubiquitous computing at the interface between technology and human beings. The organization of the book reflects the structure of the VENUS work program. After an introductory part I, part II provides the groundwork for VENUS by presenting foundational results from all four disciplines involved. Subsequently, part III focuses on methodological research funneling the development activities into a common framework. Part IV then covers the design of the demonstrators that were built in order to develop and evaluate the VENUS method. Finally, part V is dedicated to the evaluation phase to assess the user acceptance of the new approach and applications.The presented findings are especially important for researchers in computer science, information systems, and human-computer interaction, but alsofor everyone working on the acceptance of new technologies in society in general.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 364 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Traditional procedures in the statistical forecasting of time series, which are proved to be optimal under the hypothetical model, are often not robust under relatively small distortions (misspecification, outliers, missing values, etc….), leading to actual forecast risks (mean square errors of prediction) that are much higher than the theoretical values. This monograph fills a gap in the literature on robustness in statistical forecasting, offering solutions to the following topical problems: developing mathematical models and descriptions of typical distortions in applied forecasting problems; evaluating the robustness for traditional forecasting procedures under distortions; obtaining the maximal distortion levels that allow the ¿safe¿ use of the traditional forecasting algorithms;creating new robust forecasting procedures to arrive at risks that are less sensitive to definite distortion types.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 372 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -This book presents a forecasting mechanism of the price intervals for deriving the SCR (solvency capital requirement) eradicating the risk during the exercise period on one hand and measuring the risk by computing the hedging exit time… function associating with smaller investments the date until which the value of the portfolio hedges the liabilities on the other. This information, summarized under the term ¿tychastic viability measure of risk¿ is an evolutionary alternative to statistical measures, when dealing with evolutions under uncertainty. The book is written by experts in the field and the target audience primarily comprises research experts and practitioners.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 144 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book presents recent researchresults relating to applications of nonlinear dynamics, focusing specificallyon four topics of wide interest: heart dynamics, DNA/RNA, cell mobility, andproteins. The book derives from the First BCAM Workshop… on Nonlinear Dynamicsin Biological Systems, held in June 2014 at the Basque Center of AppliedMathematics (BCAM). At this international meeting, researchers from differentbut complementary backgrounds, including molecular dynamics, physical chemistrybio-informatics and biophysics, presented their most recent results anddiscussed the future direction of their studies using theoretical, mathematicalmodeling and experimental approaches. Such was the level of interest stimulatedthat the decision was taken to produce this publication, with the organizers ofthe event acting as editors. All of the contributing authors are researchers workingon diverse biological problems that can be approached using nonlinear dynamics.The book will appeal especially to applied mathematicians, biophysicists, andcomputational biologists.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 136 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This book is an edited collection of papers from international experts in philosophy and psychology concerned with time. The collection aims to bridge the gap between these disciplines by focussing on five key themes and providing phil…osophical and psychological perspectives on each theme.The first theme is the concept of time. The discussion ranges from the folk concept of time to the notion of time in logic, philosophy and psychology. The second theme concerns the notion of present in the philosophy of mind, metaphysics, and psychology. The third theme relates to continuity and flow of time in mind. One of the key questions in this section is how the apparent temporal continuity of conscious experience relates to the possibly discrete character of underlying neural processes. The fourth theme is the timing of experiences, with a focus on the perception of simultaneity and illusions of temporal order. Such effects are treated as test cases for hypotheses about the relationship between the subjective temporal order of experience and the objective order of neural events. The fifth and the final theme of the volume is time and intersubjectivity. This section examines the role of time in interpersonal coordination and in the development of social skills.The collection will appeal to both psychologists and philosophers, but also to researchers from other disciplines who seek an accessible overview of the research on time in psychology and philosophy.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 280 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -In addition to linear perspective, complex numbers and probability were notable discoveries of the Renaissance. While the power of perspective, which transformed Renaissance art, was quickly recognized, the scientific establishment tre…ated both complex numbers and probability with much suspicion. It was only in the twentieth century that quantum theory showed how probability might be molded from complex numbers and defined the notion of ¿complex probability amplitude¿. From a theoretical point of view, however, the space opened to painting by linear perspective and that opened to science by complex numbers share significant characteristics. The Art of Science explores this shared field with the purpose of extending Leonardös vision of painting to issues of mathematics and encouraging the reader to see science as an art. The intention is to restore a visual dimension to mathematical sciences ¿ an element dulled, if not obscured, by historians, philosophers, and scientists themselves.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 224 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -The current challenges and potential future of peacekeeping in an increasingly complex world take center stage in this far-reaching collection.Contributors advance a nuanced picture of post-conflict environments across different areas…of the globe while considering possible deployments of peacekeeping, traditional military and UN forces in semi-autonomous complementary roles. Longstanding debate topics such as the need for a standing UN army and the field implementation of global right-to-protect concepts are discussed, as are emerging ideas in civilian protection, atrocity prevention and balancing triage operations with long-term peacebuilding efforts. Other dispatches chronicle key issues and concerns regarding peacekeeping operations in Brazil, China and diverse regions of Africa.Included in the coverage:Protecting strangers: reflections on a cosmopolitan peacekeeping capacity.Towards a standing UN force for peacekeeping.Challenges posed by intervention brigades and other coercive measures in support of the protection of civilians.Addressing the criminal accountability of peacekeepers.The evolution of Chinäs role in peacekeeping and atrocity crime prevention.Businesses and investors as stakeholders in atrocity crime prevention.Multiple viewpoints, a global scope and real-world clarity make Perspectives on Peacekeeping and Atrocity Prevention an invaluable resource to advance the work of humanitarians, criminologists and students of and professionals in international relations.'This collection of articles effectively points to the challenges, complexities and sensitivities of preventing and halting mass atrocity crimes in part through the use of UN peacekeeping operations. The volume also inspires further efforts, including the integration of new and younger stakeholders, to mitigate massive human rightscrimes and fully implement the Responsibility to Protect.'Dr. György TatárChair, Budapest Centre for the International Prevention of Genocide and Mass Atrocities¿In a refreshing and engaging manner, this edited volume represents a much-needed contribution to the debate on how best to address current security threats given the limitations and the possibilities of peacekeeping and atrocity prevention. A compelling feature of the book is its exploration of often-neglected stakeholder perspectives alongside first-hand knowledge of the UN system and astute academic observations of key peacekeeping concepts, mandates and practices. Each chapter¿s concluding recommendations invite scholars and policy makers to critically interrogate their own beliefs, assumptions and preferred solutions for keeping the peace and preventing mass atrocity violence.¿Dr. Maria SternProfessor in Peace and Development Studies, School of Global StudiesUniversity of GothenburgSpringer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 204 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -This undergraduate textbook educates non-science majors¿our future policy makers¿onhow science works, the rules that underpin our existence, our impact on nature, and nature's impact on us. The book provides a concise, historically bas…ed, non-mathematical treatment of modern physics relevant to societal issues. It challenges readers to examine the problems we face (and their own beliefs) in light of the scientific method.With a narrative structure,Science and Society explains the scientific process and the power it brings to dealing with the natural world. The reader will gain adeeper understanding of scientific results reported by the media, and thus the tools to develop a rational, fact-based assessment of energy and resource policy.Praise for Science and Society:'Anyone who thinks society can be managed without science should think again, or better: read this book. Eric Swanson explains how science permeates society, and with simple examples of the scientific process he shows its special power in dealing with the natural world. This is a must read for the world's seven billion scientists.'F.E.
