Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book is intended to be an undergraduate introduction to the theory of fuzzy sets. We envision, sometime in the future, a curriculum in fuzzy sys tems theory, which could be in computer /information sciences, mathematics, engineering or economics (business, finance), with this book as the starting point. It is not a book for researchers but a book for beginners where you learn the basics. This course would be analogous to a pre-calculus course where a student studies algebra, functions and trigonometry in preparation for more advanced courses. Chapters 3 through 11 are on fuzzy algebra, fuzzy functions, fuzzy trigonometry, fuzzy geometry, and solving fuzzy equations. However, after this course the student doesn't go on to calculus but to more specialized courses in fuzzy systems theory like fuzzy clustering, fuzzy pattern recogni tion, fuzzy database, fuzzy image processing and computer vision, robotics, intelligent agents, soft computing, fuzzy rule based systems (control, expert systems), fuzzy decision making, applications to operations research, fuzzy mathematics, fuzzy systems modeling, etc. Therefore, very little of most of these topics are included in this book. There are many new topics included in this book. Let us point out some of them here: (1) mixed fuzzy logic (Section 3.5); (2) three methods of solving fuzzy equation/problems (Chapter 5); (3) solving fuzzy inequalities (Chapter 6); (4) inverse fuzzy functions (Section 8.5); (5) fuzzy plane geometry (Chap ter 9); (6) fuzzy trigonometry (Chapter 10); and (7) fuzzy optimization based on genetic algorithms (Chapter 16).Physica Verlag, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 296 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Seit Beginn der 3. Stufe der Europäischen Wirtschafts- und Währungsunion müssen europäische Banken mit internationaler Ausrichtung an einer Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Zahlungsverkehrssysteme und Abwicklungsverfahren teilnehmen. Diese Eingebundenheit in heterogene Zahlungsverkehrsinfrastrukturen erfordert bankseitig vielfältige abwicklungstechnische Anpassungen; zugleich zwingen die Marktbedingungen zu einer Umgestaltung der Geschäftsmodelle im Zahlungsverkehr. Das Buch analysiert den sich abzeichnenden Paradigmenwechsel in der bankbetrieblichen Zahlungsverkehrsabwicklung: Der Autor nimmt auf Basis eines ökonomischen Analyserahmens eine Bewertung aktueller Zahlungsverkehrssysteme vor und untersucht drängende infrastrukturseitige und geschäftspolitische Herausforderungen. Daran anknüpfend werden Lösungsansätze im Bereich des Zahlungsverkehrs-Outsourcings, der Prozessgestaltung sowie des Innertagesliquiditätsmanagements entwickelt.Physica Verlag, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 568 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -by Anatoliy Kinakh, Prime Minister ofUkraine After a deep and long-lasting recession, the Ukrainian economy has for the past two years demonstrated some very positive dynamics in its quantitative development indicators. This is essentially the result of reforms, which still require to be consolidated in order to engage the factors and mechanisms capable of ensuring long-term qualitative and sustainable development in our economy. How do we ensure sustainable growth, and realise the improvements in the main macroeconomic indicators together with serious and complex improvements at the micro-level, which would allow us to achieve the urgently needed shifts in the social sphere These actual problems are the main priorities of macroeconomic policy. Furthermore, the search for solutions to these problems of our transitional economy requires profound scientific analysis. The following presentations made at the Conference on 'Factors of Economic Growth in Ukraine' are serious scientific contributions by prominent economists in this field. 344 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -New information and communication technologies unquestionably brought about enormous changes that resulted in an ever-increasing networked society. Indeed, there is no area in the social and economic world which is unaffected by the recent advances. In response to these changes scientists from numerous disciplines teamed up in 1997 to lay a foundation for a common theory of networks. The objective was to gain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms behind social, economic, technical and other kinds of networks in order to develop a unifiedtheory of networks. Such a theory would then guide public and private decisions concerning the planning, operations and controlling of all kinds of networks. The contributions in this book represent the first steps toward this ambitious goal. 208 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book presents the findings of the extensive research progrannne funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Council) and entitled 'Technological Change and Regional Development in Europe'. The goal of this programme was to carry out research by means of empirical surveys into the relationship between technological change and regional development. Over a period of six years, a total of 50 research projects have been undertaken in three phases, each lasting two years. This research programme has succeeded in actively involving leading German regional scientists from many universities as well as non-university research institutions. In addition, numerous research projects were carried out in close co-operation with internationally renowned partners. We should like to express our gratitude for the support provided by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Without their financial backing of the research programme, it would not have been possible to undertake such an ambitious project. Thanks also go to the contributors of this volume for their willingness to participate in our joint project. We wish in addition to acknowledge the contribution of Prof. Dr. Philip Cooke whose refereeing of the chapters has enhanced the quality of the work presented here. Finally, our thanks go to Angela Spence for her expert editorial assistance, linguistic editing and the preparation of the Index, and also Franco Vaio for taking care of the technical aspects and production of the final copy. Their combined efforts have been crucial for successfully bringing together contributions from so many different authors in a single volume. 436 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -'Statistical Modeling, Analysis and Management of Fuzzy Data,' or SMFD for short, is an important contribution to a better understanding of a basic issue -an issue which has been controversial, and still is though to a lesser degree. In substance, the issue is: are fuzziness and randomness distinct or coextensive facets of uncertainty Are the theories of fuzziness and random ness competitive or complementary In SMFD, these and related issues are addressed with rigor, authority and insight by prominent contributors drawn, in the main, from probability theory, fuzzy set theory and data analysis com munities. First, a historical perspective. The almost simultaneous births -close to half a century ago-of statistically-based information theory and cybernetics were two major events which marked the beginning of the steep ascent of probability theory and statistics in visibility, influence and importance. I was a student when information theory and cybernetics were born, and what is etched in my memory are the fascinating lectures by Shannon and Wiener in which they sketched their visions of the coming era of machine intelligence and automation of reasoning and decision processes. What I heard in those lectures inspired one of my first papers (1950) 'An Extension of Wiener's Theory of Prediction,' and led to my life-long interest in probability theory and its applications to information processing, decision analysis and control. 309 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Seit Einführung der ersten Controllerstellen im privatwirtschaftlichen Bereich gegen 1880 in den USA hat das Controlling eine stürmische Entwicklung in der Praxis erlebt, die vielfach als Siegeszug bezeichnet wird. Gleichzeitig stand und steht insbesondere die deutschsprachige Betriebswirtschaftslehre dem Phänomen Controlling eher abwartend bis skeptisch gegenüber. Insbesondere hat sich bislang kein einheitliches Controllingverständnis heraus gebildet. Dementsprechend wird eine Vielzahl von Aufgaben mit dem Controlling verknüpft, die vom Rechnungswesen bis zum De-facto-Management reichen. Prof. Dr. Hans-Jörg Hoitsch, zu dessen 60. Geburtstag dieses Buch als Festschrift erscheint, hat schon früh die Notwendigkeit einer entscheidungsorientierten Controllingfunktion gesehen. Dieses Buch gibt ein Schlaglicht auf die vielfältigen Facetten des aktuellen Controllingsverständnisses. 284 pp. Deutsch.
