This volume is offered in that spirit. The problem addressed is one of the classics of statistical ecology, the estimation of mortality rates from stage-frequency data, but in tackling it we found ourselves making use of ideas and techniques very different from those we expected to use, and in which we had no previous experience. Specifically we drifted towards consideration of some rather specific curve and surface fitting and smoothing techniques. We think we have made some progress (otherwise why publish ), but are acutely aware of the conceptual and statistical clumsiness of parts of the work. Readers with sufficient expertise to be offended should regard the monograph as a challenge to do better. The central theme in this book is a somewhat complex algorithm for mortality estimation (detailed at the end of Chapter 4). Because of its complexity, the job of implementing the method is intimidating. Any reader interested in using the methods may obtain copies of our code as follows: Intelligible Structured Code 1. Hutchinson and deHoog's algorithm for fitting smoothing splines by cross validation 2. Cubic covariant area-approximating splines 3. Cubic interpolating splines 4. Cubic area matching splines 5. Hyman's algorithm for monotonic interpolation based on cubic splines. Prototype User-Hostile Code 6. Positive constrained interpolation 7. Positive constrained area matching 8. The 'full method' from chapter 4 9. The 'simpler' method from chapter 4.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 116 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Research in the area of adaptive control, nonlinear system and other advanced control techniques have been carried out in parallel and rather independently. In the last few years, these techniques have been used to improve robot motion accuracy. The aim of the workshop is to present the most recent contributions in the field of robot control and to compare how these advanced control techniques have been used to solve similar problems. The topics covered include: Adaptation and learning.- Control of systems with nonholonomic constraints (mobile robots).- Robot control in the task space.- Control of flexible robots (joints and structure).- Observer-based control.- Control through kinematic singularities.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 332 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -In the English edition, the chapter on the Geometry of Numbers has been enlarged to include the important findings of H. Lenstraj furthermore, tried and tested examples and exercises have been included. The translator, Prof. Charles Thomas, has solved the difficult problem of the German text into English in an admirable way. He deserves transferring our 'Unreserved praise and special thailks. Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to Springer-Verlag, for their commitment to the publication of this English edition, and for the special care taken in its production. Vienna, March 1991 E. Hlawka J. SchoiBengeier R. Taschner Preface to the German Edition We have set ourselves two aims with the present book on number theory. On the one hand for a reader who has studied elementary number theory, and who has knowledge of analytic geometry, differential and integral calculus, together with the elements of complex variable theory, we wish to introduce basic results from the areas of the geometry of numbers, diophantine ap proximation, prime number theory, and the asymptotic calculation of number theoretic functions. However on the other hand for the student who has al ready studied analytic number theory, we also present results and principles of proof, which until now have barely if at all appeared in text books.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 252 pp. Englisch.

Starting from the level of the average graduate student, it ends with some topics in modern Fourier analysis. Besides its primary audience, the book should be useful to researchers in neighbouring fields, e.g. ODE, PDE, mathematical physics.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 284 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -The application of thermal analysis is outlined by 18contributions, writtenby experts in the various fields ofgeosciences. Emphasis was laid on the determination ofminerals and technical products, kinetic parameters andcalorific values in glass and ceramics technologycharacterization of raw materials (e.g. clays, industrialminerals), in quality control and performance assessmentbut also in environment protection from soil and waterpollution, using re-evaluated existing and new data andimproved combined modern methods.This book is addressed to practitioners, scientistsandstudents in mineralogy/crystallography, applied geologymaterial sciences, and environmental sciences.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 396 pp. Englisch.

Some of the world's leading scientists in this field review recent data from four subject areas: immunogenetics, thyroid peroxidase as an antigen, environmental factors, and cytokines. Much ongoing and as yet unpublished work is described, especially in the discussion included after each article. This information is of particular interest since the body of knowledge in these fields is growing very rapidly. The book is based on a workshop in which researchers from 13 countries took part. One major aim was to raise controversial points and to develop ideas for their potential solution. At the workshop it became apparent that a great deal of the information given in textbooks is outdated. This is an important update for researchers who are interested in the above topics and in understanding the etiology and pathogenesis of thyroid autoimmunity.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 340 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Birdkeeping is becoming increasingly popular, but could it threaten good health This book discusses the evi- dence suggesting that keeping pet birds is a strong risk factor for lung cancer. Its relation to a number of other endpoints, including death before age 60 and spontaneous abortion, is also examined. In addition, the book looks at the diseases that can be transmitted from birds to man - a fairly unknown field in general medicine. For instance, birds are a source of airborne particles that can cause allergic reactions in humans. People who keep birds as pets tend to have a higher incidence of shortness of breath, colds, sore throats and other flu-like symptoms than those in households without birds. The evidence presented in this book is the result of a ten-year general practice survey. Some recommendations for future research are given.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 140 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -The authors formulate a new theoretical concept of psychoanalysis, keeping in mind the development of the last 20 years in the field and concentrating on the interplay between emotion and cognition. Concrete issues like dreaming are studied with the help of computer simulation and artificial intelligence.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 192 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -DISKOVER (DISposition mit Hilfe von KOnfidenzbereichen unter Berücksichtigung der LagerabgangsVERteilung) ist ein neuartiges Dispositionssystem, das aufbauend auf dem Median die notwendigen Grundbestände ermittelt. Die Berechnung der notwendigen Sicherheitsbestände erfolgt bei Vorgabe des geforderten Lieferbereitschaftsgrades mit Hilfe von Konfidenzbereichen. Das Verfahren wurde bereits mehrfach für verschiedene Artikelstrukturen mit spezifischen Eingangsparametern wie Trend, Saison, Wiederbeschaffungszeit erfolgreich angewandt. DISKOVER zeichnet sich vor allem durch seine einfache Handhabung aus. Vorliegender Band beschreibt ausführlich Aufbau und Einsatzmöglichkeiten dieses neuen Dispositionsverfahrens.Springer-Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 148 pp. Deutsch.

Neuware -Aus den Besprechungen: 'Die Qualität dieses Werkes läßt es . notwendig erscheinen, einiges mehr zu ihm zu sagen. Seine Stärke besteht nämlich darin, daß die Grundlagen immer von unterschiedlichen Gesichtspunkten aus behandelt werden. So wird das Bändermodell von den Eigenfunktionen wechselwirkender Atome, aus der Schrödinger-Gleichung und über die Pseudopotentialmethode anschaulich eingeführt. Bedeutsam ist, daß dies auf unterschiedlichem Niveau erfolgt. Dadurch werden die gegenseitige Bedingtheit und die Besonderheiten der Methoden noch deutlicher. Insgesamt werden auf diese Weise vier Kapitel behandelt: Bändermodell, gestörtes Gitter, Rekombination von Ladungsträger und Stromtransport. Ein umfangreiches Literaturverzeichnis und ein gutes Sachwortverzeichnis ergänzen das Werk. Allen denen, die tiefer in diese Problematik eindringen wollen, kann es nur empfohlen werden.' #Elektronische Informationstechnik und Kybernetik#Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 316 pp. Deutsch.
