Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The electronic Schrodi nger equation describes the motion of N electrons under Coulomb interaction forces in a eld of clamped nuclei. Solutions of this equation depend on 3N variables, three spatial dimensions for each electron. Ap…proxim- ing the solutions is thus inordinately challenging, and it is conventionally believed that a reduction to simpli ed models, such as those of the Hartree-Fock method or density functional theory, is the only tenable approach. This book seeks to c- vince the reader that this conventional wisdom need not be ironclad: the regularity of the solutions, which increases with the number of electrons, the decay behavior of their mixed derivatives, and the antisymmetry enforced by the Pauli principle contribute properties that allow these functions to be approximated with an order of complexity which comes arbitrarily close to that for a system of one or two electrons. The present notes arose from lectures that I gave in Berlin during the academic year 2008/09 to introduce beginning graduate students of mathematics into this subject. They are kept on an intermediate level that should be accessible to an audience of this kind as well as to physicists and theoretical chemists with a c- responding mathematical training. 188 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -We read in order to know we are not alone, I once heard, and perhaps it could also be suggested that we write in order not to be alone, to endorse, to promote continuity. The idea for this book took about ten years to materialize,…and it is the author's hope that its content will constitute the beginning of further explorations beyond current horizons. More speci cally, this book appeals to the reader to engage upon and persevere with a journey, moving through the less well explored territories in the evolution of the very early universe, and pushing towards new landscapes. P- haps, during or after consulting this book, this attitude and this willingness will be embraced by someone, somewhere, and this person will go on to enrich our quantum cosmological description of the early universe, by means of a clearer supersymm- ric perspective. It is to these creative and inquisitive 'young minds' that the book is addressed. The reader will not therefore nd in this book all the answers to all the problems regarding a supersymmetric and quantum description of the early universe, and this remark is substantiated in the book by a list of unresolved and challenging problems, itself incomplete. 350 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Ordinary differential equations play a central role in science and have been extended to evolution equations in Banach spaces. For many applications, however, it is difficult to specify a suitable normed vector space. Shapes withou…t a priori restrictions, for example, do not have an obvious linear structure.This book generalizes ordinary differential equations beyond the borders of vector spaces with a focus on the well-posed Cauchy problem in finite time intervals.Here are some of the examples:- Feedback evolutions of compact subsets of the Euclidean space- Birth-and-growth processes of random sets (not necessarily convex)- Semilinear evolution equations- Nonlocal parabolic differential equations- Nonlinear transport equations for Radon measures- A structured population model- Stochastic differential equations with nonlocal sample dependence and how they can be coupled in systems immediately - due to the joint framework of Mutational Analysis. Finally, the book offers new tools for modelling. 532 pp. Englisch.

Software business refers to commercial activity of the software industry, aimed at generat…ing income from delivery of software products and software services. Although software business shares common features with other international knowledge-intensive businesses, it carries many inherent features making it an intriguing and challenging domain for research. Until now, however, software business has received little attention from the academic community. The First International Conference on Software Business (ICSOB 2010) was organized in Jyv askyl a during June 21-23, 2010. This inaugural conference brought together a strong Program Committee of 52 members with research disciplines from various elds of business management and technology mana- mentaswellasinternational avorwithmemberscomingfrom17countriesfrom South and North America to Europe, India and Australia.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Euro-Par is an annual series of international conferences dedicated to the p- motion and advancement of all aspects of parallel and distributed computing. th Euro-Par 2009 was the 15 edition in this conference series. Througout the… years, the Euro-Par conferences have always attracted high-quality submissions and have become one of the established conferences in the area of parallel and distributed processing. Built upon the success of the annual conferences and in order to accommodate the needs of special interest groups (among the conf- ence participants), starting from 2006,a series of workshopsin conjunction with the Euro-Par main conference have been organized. This was the fth year in which workshops were organized within the Euro-Par conference format. The workshops focus on advanced specialized topics in parallel and d- tributed computing. These topics re ect new scienti c and technological dev- opments. While the community for such new and speci c developments is still small and the topics have yet to become mature, the Euro-Par conference o ers a platform in the form of a workshop to exchange ideas and discuss cooperation opportunities. The workshops in the past four years have been very successful. The number ofworkshopproposalsandthenumberof nallyacceptedworkshopshavegra- ally increasedsince 2006.In 2008,nine workshopswereorganizedin conjunction with the main Euro-Par conference. In 2009, there were again nine workshops. 468 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The Poisson-Dirichlet distribution is an infinite dimensional probability distribution. It was introduced by Kingman over thirty years ago, and has found applications in a broad range of areas including Bayesian statistics, combinatorics,… differential geometry, economics, number theory, physics, and population genetics. This monograph provides a comprehensive study of this distribution and some related topics, with particular emphasis on recent progresses in evolutionary dynamics and asymptotic behaviors. One central scheme is the unification of the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution, the urn structure, the coalescent, the evolutionary dynamics through the grand particle system of Donnelly and Kurtz. It is largely self-contained. The methods and techniques used in it appeal to researchers in a wide variety of subjects. 218 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Aside from the obvious statement that it should be a theory capable of unifying general relativity and quantum field theory, not much is known about the true nature of quantum gravity.New ideas - and there are many of them for this… is an exciting field of research - often diverge to a degree where it seems impossible to decide in which of the many possible direction(s) the ongoing developments should be further sustained.The division of the book in two (overlapping) parts reflects the duality between the physical vision and the mathematical construction. The former is represented by tutorial reviews on non-commutative geometry, on space-time discretization and renormalization and on gauge field path integrals. The latter one by lectures on cohomology, on stochastic geometry and on mathematical tools for the effective action in quantum gravity.The book will benefit everyone working or entering the field of quantum gravity research. 350 pp. Englisch.

Consequently, it is necessary to control companies in such monopoly positions with regard to their pricing. In the future, it will become more and mor…e important to consider a possible change in the regulation regime when the future-oriented costs of equity - both in terms of price regulation and for conducting capital market-oriented business valuations - are to be determined. Based on the principal-agent problem, the book explains this topic. The effect of a change in the regulation regime is presented in the form of two studies: an international secondary analysis of the effects on cost of equity based on event studies of the Anglo-Saxon area and a primary analysis based on the Austrian regulation policy for energy and gas supply systems. The two studies arrive at similar results: The change from a rate-of-return regulation to incentive regulation systems leads to a significant increase in systematic risk 180 pp. Englisch.

It facilitates the first steps towards project comparisons f…or project management experts and scientists, details possible approaches and relates real-world experiences. While readers are assumed to have some knowledge of project management, the mathematical and statistical aspects are explained. For the first time in the history of project management we show that the efficiency of project realizations can be evaluated objectively and numerically in detail and as a whole, and how to do so. We lay out the first comprehensive, scientifically founded characteristics system for projects, formulate the first mathematical project model, demonstrate the usefulness of the characteristics system with authentic projects, and show how to handle the new tools and how to present them in tables and diagrams. 175 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume contains the papers presented at WoLLIC 2010: 17th Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation held during July 6-9, 2010, on the campus of Universidade de Bras lia (UnB), Brazil. The Workshop on Logic, Lan…guage, Information and Computation (WoL- LIC) is an annual event, meeting every year since 1994, which aims at fostering interdisciplinary research in pure and applied logic. The idea is to have a forum which is large enough in the number of possible interactions between logic and the sciences related to information and computation, and yet is small enough to allow for concrete and useful interaction among participants. The present volume contains 13 contributed papers that were selected from among 32 submissions after a rigorous review by the Program Committee. Each submission was reviewed by at least two, and on average three, Program C- mittee members. This volume also containspapersor abstractsthat relateto the seven invited talks presented at the workshop. Between them, these papers give a snapshot of some fascinating work taking place at the frontiers between computation, logic, and linguistics. We are grateful to all the people who made this meeting possible and are responsible for its success: the members of the Program Committee and the external reviewers, the invited speakers, the contributors, and the people who were involved in organizing the workshop. 272 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Agile software development has become an umbrella term for a number of changes in how software developers plan and coordinate their work, how they communicate with customers and external stakeholders, and how software development is organ…ized in small, medium, and large companies, from the telecom and healthcare sectors to games and interactive media. Still, after a decade of research, agile software development is the source of continued debate due to its multifaceted nature and insufficient synthesis of research results.Dingsøyr, Dybå, and Moe now present a comprehensive snapshot of the knowledge gained over many years of research by those working closely with or in the industry. It shows the current state of research on agile software development through an introduction and ten invited contributions on the main research fields, each written by renowned experts. These chapters cover three main issues: foundations and background of agile development, agile methods in practice, and principal challenges and new frontiers. They show the important results in each subfield, and in addition they explain what these results mean to practitioners as well as for future research in the field.The book is aimed at reflective practitioners and researchers alike, and it also can serve as the basis for graduate courses at universities. 256 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -As modern society relies on the fault-free operation of complex computing systems, system fault-tolerance has become an indispensable requirement. Therefore, we need mechanisms that guarantee correct service in cases where system componen…ts fail, be they software or hardware elements. Redundancy patterns are commonly used, for either redundancy in space or redundancy in time.Wolter's book details methods of redundancy in time that need to be issued at the right moment. In particular, she addresses the so-called 'timeout selection problem', i.e., the question of choosing the right time for different fault-tolerance mechanisms like restart, rejuvenation and checkpointing. Restart indicates the pure system restart, rejuvenation denotes the restart of the operating environment of a task, and checkpointing includes saving the system state periodically and reinitializing the system at the most recent checkpoint upon failure of the system. Her presentation includes a brief introduction to the methods, their detailed stochastic description, and also aspects of their efficient implementation in real-world systems.The book is targeted at researchers and graduate students in system dependability, stochastic modeling and software reliability. Readers will find here an up-to-date overview of the key theoretical results, making this the only comprehensive text on stochastic models for restart-related problems. 288 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Most well known structures in planetary atmospheres and the Earth's oceans are jets or fronts interacting with vortices on a wide range of scales. The transition from one state to another, such as in unbalanced or adjustment flows,… involves the generation of waves as well as the interaction of coherent structures with these waves.This book presents a fluid mechanics perspective to the dynamics of fronts and vortices and their interaction with waves in geophysical flows. It provides a basic physical background for modeling coherent structures in a geophysical context, and it gives essential information on advanced topics such as spontaneous wave emission and wavemomentum transfer in geophysical flows.Based on a set of lectures by leading specialists, this text is targeted at graduate students, researchers and engineers in geophysics and environmental fluid mechanics. 204 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Manufacturing and operations management paradigms are evolving toward more open and resilient spaces where innovation is driven not only by ever-changing customer needs but also by agile and fast-reacting networked structures. Flexibility…, adaptability and responsiveness are properties that the next generation of systems must have in order to successfully support such new emerging trends. Customers are being attracted to be involved in Co-innovation Networks, as - proved responsiveness and agility is expected from industry ecosystems. Renewed production systems needs to be modeled, engineered and deployed in order to achieve cost-effective solutions. BASYS conferences have been developed and organized as a forum in which to share visions and research findings for innovative sustainable and knowledge-based products-services and manufacturing models. Thus, the focus of BASYS is to discuss how human actors, emergent technologies and even organizations are integrated in order to redefine the way in which the val- creation process must be conceived and realized. BASYS 2010, which was held in Valencia, Spain, proposed new approaches in automation where synergies between people, systems and organizations need to be fully exploited in order to create high added-value products and services. This book contains the selection of the papers which were accepted for presentation at the BASYS 2010 conference, covering consolidated and emerging topics of the conference scope. 324 pp. Englisch.

We talk about organizational design, and also refect on leadership practices. Our assumption is that in a dynamic world, leaders at all levels, have to constantly switch gears, wear different hats…, and na- gate at different altitudes. They have to think about the 'total' enterprise, not in terms of compartmentalized silos or felds of functional expertise. Much like a g- eral contractor, they have to draw on specialized expertise, as and when needed, yet keep the big picture in mind. Our hope is that our diagnostic tools can help teams develop a shared frame of reference and generate cross-functional dialogue. The third driving force behind this second edition is the gradual convergence between the worlds of entrepreneurial start-ups and challenges facing established corporations. Innovation, agility, and initiative are no longer the exclusive preserve of start-ups. Established companies are looking for ways to re-invent themselves, to innovate, to think creatively, and to make their enterprises more fexible, agile and entrepreneurial. We have had the good fortune to sit at the intersection of these two worlds. We hope our ideas can beneft both groups. We set out to provide a 'buffet table', a menu of options that can be helpful for the two ends of the spectrum. 232 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This monograph covers higher order linear and nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems in bounded domains, mainly with the biharmonic or poly-harmonic operator as leading principal part. Underlying models and, in particular, the…role of different boundary conditions are explained in detail. As for linear problems, after a brief summary of the existence theory and Lp and Schauder estimates, the focus is on positivity or - since, in contrast to second order equations, a general form of a comparison principle does not exist - on 'near positivity.' The required kernel estimates are also presented in detail. As for nonlinear problems, several techniques well-known from second order equations cannot be utilized and have to be replaced by new and different methods. Subcritical, critical and supercritical nonlinearities are discussed and various existence and nonexistence results are proved. The interplay with the positivity topic from the first part is emphasized and, moreover, a far-reaching Gidas-Ni-Nirenberg-type symmetry result is included. Finally, some recent progress on the Dirichlet problem for Willmore surfaces under symmetry assumptions is discussed. 448 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A crucial step during the design and engineering of communication systems is the estimation of their performance and behavior; especially for mathematically complex or highly dynamic systems network simulation is particularly useful.This…book focuses on tools, modeling principles and state-of-the art models for discrete-event based network simulations, the standard method applied today in academia and industry for performance evaluation of new network designs and architectures.The focus of the tools part is on two distinct simulations engines: OmNet++ and ns-3, while it also deals with issues like parallelization, software integration and hardware simulations. The parts dealing with modeling and models for network simulations are split into a wireless section and a section dealing with higher layers. The wireless section covers all essential modeling principles for dealing with physical layer, link layer and wireless channel behavior. In addition, detailed models for prominent wireless systems like IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.16 are presented.In the part on higher layers, classical modeling approaches for the network layer, the transport layer and the application layer are presented in addition to modeling approaches for peer-to-peer networks and topologies of networks. The modeling parts are accompanied with catalogues of model implementations for a large set of different simulation engines.The book is aimed at master students and PhD students of computer science and electrical engineering as well as at researchers and practitioners from academia and industry that are dealing with network simulation at any layer of the protocol stack. 568 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Soft Computing, ICAISC 2010, held in Zakopane, Poland during June 13-17, 2010. The conference was organized by the Polish N…- ral Network Society in cooperation with the Academy of Management in Lodz (SWSPiZ), the Department of Computer Engineering at the Czestochowa U- versity of Technology,and the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society, Poland Chapter. The previous conferences took place in Kule (1994), Szczyrk (1996), Kule (1997) and Zakopane (1999, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008) and attracted a large number of papers and internationally recognized speakers: Lot A. Zadeh, Shun-ichi Amari, Daniel Amit, Piero P. Bonissone, Zdzislaw Bubnicki, Andrzej Cichocki,WlodzislawDuch,PabloA. Est evez,JerzyGrzymala-Busse,Kaoru- rota, Janusz Kacprzyk, Laszlo T. Koczy, Soo-Young Lee, Robert Marks, Ev- gelia Micheli-Tzanakou, Erkki Oja, Witold Pedrycz, Sarunas Raudys, Enrique Ruspini, Jorg Siekman, Roman Slowinski, Ryszard Tadeusiewicz, Shiro Usui, Ronald Y. Yager, Syozo Yasui and Jacek Zurada. The aim of this conference is to build a bridge between traditional artificial intelligence techniques and recently developed soft computing techniques. It was pointed out by Lot A. Zadeh that Soft Computing (SC) is a coalition of methodologies which are o- ented toward the conception and design of information/intelligent systems. The principal members of the coalition are: fuzzy logic (FL), neurocomputing (NC), evolutionary computing (EC), probabilistic computing (PC), chaotic computing (CC), and machine learning (ML). The constituent methodologies of SC are, for the most part, complementary and synergistic rather than competitive. This volume presents both traditional artificial intelligence methods and soft computing techniques. 710 pp. Englisch.

PAKDDisamajorinternationalconferenceintheareasofdatamining… (DM) and knowledge discovery in databases (KDD). It provides an international - rum for researchers and industry practitioners to share their new ideas, original research results and practical development experiences from all KDD-related areas including data mining, data warehousing, machine learning, databases, statistics, knowledge acquisition and automatic scienti c discovery, data visu- ization, causal induction and knowledge-based systems. PAKDD-2010 received 412 research papers from over 34 countries incl- ing: Australia,Austria,Belgium, Canada,China, Cuba, Egypt,Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Italy, Japan, S. Korea, Malaysia, Mexico,TheNetherlands,NewCaledonia,NewZealand,SanMarino,Singapore, Slovenia,Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, UK, USA, and Vietnam. This clearly re ects the truly international stature of the PAKDD conference. AfteraninitialscreeningofthepapersbytheProgramCommitteeChairs,for papers that did not conform to the submission guidelines or that were deemed not worthy of further reviews, 60 papers were rejected with a brief expla- tion for the decision. The remaining 352 papers were rigorously reviewed by at least three reviewers. The initial results were discussed among the reviewers and nally judged by the Program Committee Chairs. In some cases of c- ict additional reviews were sought. As a result of the deliberation process, only 42 papers (10.2%) were accepted as long presentations (25 mins), and an ad- tional 55 papers (13.3%) were accepted as short presentations (15 mins). The total acceptance rate was thus about 23.5% across both categories. 544 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Intelligent Information Access techniques attempt to overcome the limitations ofcurrent search devices by providing personalized information items and product/service recommendations. They normally utilize direct or indirect user input an…dfacilitate the information search and decision processes, according to user needs,preferences and usage patterns. Recent developments at the intersection of InformationRetrieval, Information Filtering, Machine Learning, User Modelling, NaturalLanguage Processing and Human-Computer Interaction offer novel solutions thatempower users to go beyond single-session lookup tasks and that aim at servingthe more complex requirement: 'Tell me what I don't know that I need to know'.Information filtering systems, specifically recommender systems, have been revolutionizingthe way information seekers find what they want, because they effectivelyprune large information spaces and help users in selecting items that best meet theirneeds and preferences. Recommender systems rely strongly on the use of variousmachine learning tools and algorithms for learning how to rank, or predict userevaluation, of items. Information Retrieval systems, on the other hand, also attemptto address similar filtering and ranking problems for pieces of information such aslinks, pages, and documents. But they generally focus on the development of globalretrieval techniques, often neglecting individual user needs and preferences.The book aims to investigate current developments and new insights into methods,techniques and technologies for intelligent information access from a multidisciplinaryperspective. It comprises six chapters authored by participants in theresearch event Intelligent Information Access, held in Cagliari (Italy) in December2008. 152 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Modeling and predicting human and vehicle motion is an active research domain.Owing to the difficulty in modeling the various factors that determine motion(e.g. internal state, perception) this is often tackled by applying machinelearning… techniques to build a statistical model, using as input a collectionof trajectories gathered through a sensor (e.g. camera, laser scanner), and thenusing that model to predict further motion. Unfortunately, most currenttechniques use offline learning algorithms, meaning that they are not able tolearn new motion patterns once the learning stage has finished.This books presents a lifelong learning approach where motion patterns can belearned incrementally, and in parallel with prediction. The approach is based ona novel extension to hidden Markov models, and the main contribution presentedin this book, called growing hidden Markov models, which gives us the ability tolearn incrementally both the parameters and the structure of the model. Theproposed approach has been extensively validated with synthetic and realtrajectory data. In our experiments our approach consistently learned motionmodels that were more compact and accurate than those produced by two otherstate-of-the-art techniques, confirming the viability of lifelong learningapproaches to build human behavior models. 176 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -With continuous development of modern computing hardware and applicable - merical methods, computational uid dynamics (CFD) has reached certain level of maturity so that it is being used routinely by scientists and engineers for uid ow an…alysis. Since most of the real-life applications involve some kind of optimization, it has been natural to extend the use of CFD tools from ow simulation to simu- tion based optimization. However, the transition from simulation to optimization is not straight forward, it requires proper interaction between advanced CFD meth- ologies and state-of-the-art optimization algorithms. The ultimate goal is to achieve optimal solution at the cost of few ow solutions. There is growing number of - search activities to achieve this goal. This book results from my work done on simulation based optimization problems at the Department of Mathematics, University of Trier, and reported in my postd- toral thesis ('Habilitationsschrift') accepted by the Faculty-IV of this University in 2008. The focus of the work has been to develop mathematical methods and - gorithms which lead to ef cient and high performance computational techniques to solve such optimization problems in real-life applications. Systematic development of the methods and algorithms are presented here. Practical aspects of implemen- tions are discussed at each level as the complexity of the problems increase, suppo- ing with enough number of computational examples. 201 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -2010 marks a turning point for international politics. The impact of the global crisis is reflected in the readiness of both national governments and international organisations to rebuild relations between state and market within a safer… regulatory framework. New models of development gained ground during the crisis: investments in new energy technologies, medical research, education, security and employment. In Europe, novel ideas interact with major institutional changes put into effect by the Lisbon Treaty. A wide range of policies, from the field of European security to the problems of migration and from EU enlargement to Euro-American cooperation, are affected by the changes on all these levels. The Constantinos Karamanlis Institute for Democracy Yearbook 2010 addresses vital aspects of the European and international agenda, bringing together prominent scholars and policymakers from a variety of national backgrounds. 144 pp. Englisch.
