Overview: Displaying multiple levels of data visually has been proposed to address the challenge of limited screen space. Although many previous empirical studies have addressed different aspects of this question, the information visualization research community does not currently have a clearly articulated consensus on how, when, or even if displaying data at multiple levels is effective.To shed more light on this complex topic, we conducted a systematic review of 22 existing multi-level interface studies to extract high-level design guidelines. To facilitate discussion, we cast our analysis

Overview: The purpose of Advances in Soil Science is to provide a forum for leading scientists to analyze and summarize the available scientific information on a subject, assessing its importance and identifying additional research needs. A wide array of subjects has been addressed by authors from many countries in the initial ten volumes of the series. The quick acceptance of the series by both authors and readers has been very gratifying and confirms our perception that a need did exist for a medium to fill the gap between the scientific journals and the comprehensive reference books. This v

Overview: This book deals with the analysis and design of analog integrated circuits that form the basis of present-day communication systems. The material is intended to be a textbook for class use but should also be a valuable source of information for a practicing engineer. Both bipolar and MOS transistor circuits are analyzed and many numerical examples are used to illustrate the analysis and design techniques developed in this book. A set of problems is presented at the end of the book which covers the subject matter of the whole book. The book has originated out of a senior-level course

Overview: Dieses Buch führt anhand von Beispielen in die kombinatorische Abzählungstheorie nach Pólya einIm Zentrum dieses .essentials. steht der gefeierte Abzählsatz von Pólya. Damit lassen sich kombinatorische Objekte mit Symmetrien abzählen, wie etwa Halsketten mit bunten Perlen und Würfel mit gefärbten Seiten, aber auch Graphen und Bäume. Die Gruppentheorie wird dafür benutzt, die Symmetrien der abzuzählenden Figuren zu beschreiben. Darauf aufbauend kann anhand der Operation der jeweiligen Symmetriegruppe auf den gefärbten Figuren die Anzahl der verschiedenen Muster ermittelt werden. Grund
