Overview: Analyse von Arbeitswerten der Generation Y aus 52 Ländern.Die Untersuchung kultureller Unterschiede zwischen Mitarbeitern veranlasste Sandra Brinkmann zu der Fragestellung, ob arbeitsbezogene Werte der Generation Y im internationalen Vergleich variieren. Mithilfe der zehn Kulturcluster der GLOBE-Studie analysiert die Autorin arbeitsbezogene Werte aus 52 Ländern und zieht Rückschlüsse über die Heterogenität der Arbeitswerte dieser Generation. Insgesamt kann sie trotz Hinweisen auf eine zunehmend „globale“ Generation Y eine statistisch höchst signifikante Heterogenität der Arbeitswerte

Overview: The 1980‘s saw the advent of widespread (and potentially damaging) computer virus infection of both personal computer and mainframe systems. The computer security field has been comparatively slow to react to this emerging situation. It is only over the last two years that a significant body of knowledge on the operation, likely evolution and prevention of computer viruses has developed. .A Pathology of Computer . .Viruses. gives a detailed overview of the history of the computer virus and an in-depth technical review of the principles of computer virus and worm operation under DOS,

Overview: The scientific collaboration between the United States and Japan in the field of cancer goes back many years. In this successful international collaboration cancer chemotherapy has been one of the most productive areas. Pioneers such as YOSHIDA, UMEZAWA, SHEAR, and GOLDIN established firm links of mutual trust and respect in the period after the Second Great War. Japanese drugs, such as mitomycin C and bleomycin have become mainstays of clinical oncology in the U. S. and throughout the world. Many drugs developed in the U. S. have become established in Japanese cancer therapy. Within

Overview: Research in artificial intelligence, natural language processing and knowledge-based systems has blossomed during the past decade. At national and international symposia as well as in research centers and universities all over the world, these subjects have been the focus of intense debate and study.
