Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This text grew up from lecturcs givcn at he t University of Rennes I during the academic year 1988-1989. The main topics covered arc second microlocalization along a agrangian l manifold, defined by Sjostrand in [Sj], and its application to the study of conormal sin gularities for solutions of semilinear hyperbolic partial differential equations, developed by Lebeau [L4]. To give a quite self-contained treatment of these questions, we induded some de velopments about FBI transformations and subanalytic geometry. The text is made oi four chapters. In he t first one, we define the Fourier-Bros-Ingolnitzer transionnation and study its main properties. The second chapter deals with second microlocalization along a lagrangian submanifold, and with upper bounds for the wave front set of traces one may obtain using it. The third chapter is devoted to formulas giving geometric upper bounds for the analytic wave front set and for the ser,ond mic:rosllpport of boundary values of ramified functions. Lastly, the fourth chapter applies the preceding methods to the derivation of theorems about the location of microlocal singularities of solutions of scmilinear wave equations with conormw data, in general geometrical situation. Every chapter begins with a short abstract of its contents, where are collected the bibliograph ical references. Let me now thank all those who made this writing possible. First of all, Gilles Lebeau, from whom I learnt mcrol i ocal analysis, especially through lectures he gave with Yves Laurent at Ecole Normale Superieure in 1982-1983. 108 pp. Englisch.

As well, most imaging systems inherently perform apositioning function. Positioning systems can be appliedin various forms of transport such as general and spaceaviation or automobiles, but also in geodetic surveying.The aim of this monograph is to establish a general methodfor the mathematical analysis of positioning systems and todemonstrate the utility of this characterization. The basicapproach uses information theory, differential geometry,rate distortion theory and chaos, as well as integrating themore conventional methods of analysis based on estimationand detection theory. This approach allows the derivationof performance limits,estimates of optimal configuration,reasoning about classes of systems, direct comparisonbetween positioning and communication systems, and estimatesof the source information rate of moving objects. The bookshould be of interest to any researcher seeking to gain abetter understanding of a positioning or imaging system. 184 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Recent work on formal methods in computational lexicalsemantics has had theeffect of bringing many linguisticformalisms much closer to the knowledge representationlanguages used in artificial intelligence. Formalisms arenow emerging which may be more expressive and formallybetter understood than many knowledge representationlanguages. The interests of computational linguists nowextend to include such domains as commonsense knowledge,inheritance, default reasoning, collocational relations, andeven domain knowledge. With such an extension of the normalpurview of 'linguistic' knowledge, one may question whetherthere is any logical justification for distinguishingbetween lexical semantics and commonsense reasoning.This volume explores the question from severalmethodologicaland theoretical perspectives. What emerges isa clear consensus that the notion of the lexicon and lexicalknowledge assumed in earlier linguistic research is grosslyinadequate and fails to address the deeper semantic issuesrequired for natural language analysis. 400 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Relational matching is a method for finding the bestcorrespondences betweenstructural descriptions. It is widely used in computer vision for the recognition and location of objects in digital images. For this purpose, the digital images and the object models are represented by structural descriptions. The matching algorithm then has to determine which image elements and object model parts correspond. This book is the result of abasic study of relational matching. The book focuses particularly on the evaluation of correspondences. In order to find the best match, one needs a measure to evaluate the quality of a match. The author reviews the evaluation measures that have been suggested over the past few decades and presents a new measure based on information theory. The resulting theorycombines matching strategies, information theory, and tree search methods. For the benefit of the reader, comprehensive introductions are given to all these topics. 208 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -H. KIESEWETTER, J. KosciELNY, and F. JuNG Tbe byperoncotic colloid-osmotic pressure of tbe 10% Haes solution causes an increased intravascular volume because free tissue water flows into the vascular system [206]. Witb a volume expansion effect of about 50% an increase in intravascular volume of 750 ml (500 mi Haes and 250 mi tissue water) is expected immediately after hypervolemic hemodilution, after isovolemic bemodilution only an in crease of 250 mi ( only tissue water due to a pblebotomy of 500 mi). The blood is diluted by overloading the vascular system [245]. After isovolemic bemodilution tbe dilution effect is more marked due to the pblebotomy. Estimated by means of the total protcin concentration (Fig. 67) the dilution of plasma was 22% 1 h after isovolemic hemodilution but only 14% after bypervolemic bemodilution. Tbe plasma dilutions were almost confirmed by the concentration changes of albumin (Fig. 68). Therefore, the mixing ratio is 4. 1 to 1 (plasma to bydroxyetbyl starcb) for bypervolemic infusion of 500 ml Haes-sterillO% (200/0. 5) and 3. 7 to 1 for isovolemic dilution. Consequently, the hydroxyethyl starch concentration after isovolemic hemodilution was signifi cantly bigher at all measuring times tban after hypervolemic hemodilution (Fig. 61). If tbe infusion was performed quickly so that no renal output of the Haes solution could ensue, a mean bydroxyetbyl starch concentration of 10. 3 g per liter plasma would be expected immediately after isovolemic hemodilution for tbe above mixing ratio, and one of 9. 0 g after hypervolemic bemodilution. 256 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -This collection of papers draws together a variety of approaches for adding ob ject orientation to the Z formal specification language. These papers are not a conference proceedings, but have a slightly more complicated his tory. This work has grown and evolved from some work originally done in the ZIP project, under the United Kingdom's Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) IED initiative. ZIP is a three year project which aims to make the use of the Z specification language more widespread. It hopes to achieve this by producing a standard for Zj developing a method for Zj building tool support for Zj and carrying out research into refinement, proof and concurrency in Z. The ZIP methods work includes performing a survey of current Z practitioners (reported in [Barden et al. 1992])j investigating current styles and methods of Z usagej and developing a Z Method handbook (available early in 1993). As part of this work, we carried out a comparative study of the ways in which object orientation has been combined with Z. A summary of that work has been published as [Stepney et al. 1992].Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 156 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -LANCELOT is a software package for solving large-scale nonlinear optimization problems. This book is our attempt to provide a coherent overview of the package and its use. This includes details of how one might present examples to the package, how the algorithm tries to solve these examples and various technical issues which may be useful to implementors of the software. We hope this book will be of use to both researchers and practitioners in nonlinear programming. Although the book is primarily concerned with a specific optimization package, the issues discussed have much wider implications for the design and im plementation of large-scale optimization algorithms. In particular, the book contains a proposal for a standard input format for large-scale optimization problems. This proposal is at the heart of the interface between a user's problem and the LANCE LOT optimization package. Furthermore, a large collection of over five hundred test ex amples has already been written in this format and will shortly be available to those who wish to use them. We would like to thank the many people and organizations who supported us in our enterprise. We first acknowledge the support provided by our employers, namely the the Facultes Universitaires Notre-Dame de la Paix (Namur, Belgium), Harwell Laboratory (UK), IBM Corporation (USA), Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (UK) and the University of Waterloo (Canada). We are grateful for the support we obtained from NSERC (Canada), NATO and AMOCO (UK). 360 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Dieses Buch will dem fachfremden Leser die wichtigsten Grundlagen der Volkswirtschaftslehre vermitteln. Es wird verständlich gemacht, nach welchen Prinzipien eine Marktwirtschaft funktioniert und welche Aufgaben der Staat im Rahmen einer marktwirtschaftlichen Ordnung hat. Der Text beginnt mit der Analyse eines vergleichsweise einfach strukturierten Marktes. Darauf aufbauend werden die Wechselbeziehungen zwischen verschiedenen Märkten, die Bestimmungsgründe des internationalen Handels und die Grundlinien des sektoralen Strukturwandels dargestellt. In den weiteren Kapiteln geht esunter anderem darum, in welchen Fällen die Steuerung der Wirtschaft nicht allein dem Markt überlassen werden sollte und was der Staat tun kann, um den Wettbewerb zu sichern. Als roter Faden durchzieht den gesamten Text die Frage, welche wirtschaftspolitischen Konsequenzen sich aus den theoretischen Analysen ergeben.Dafür werden keine fertigen Antworten vorgegeben, sondern es werden Lösungswege aufgezeigt, die den Leser in die Lage versetzen sollen, sich selbst ein rasches und sicheres Urteil auch zu solchen Fragen zu bilden, die im Text nicht direkt angesprochen sind. 240 pp. Deutsch.
