Overview: In the autumn of 1990 there was a sense of change taking place in the world economy. Readiness for war was occurrin~ in the Middle East and a recession was already underway in a few major countries. The forces of reform and political re-shaping were visible in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. We economists, gathering in Osaka, Japan, under the auspices of the International Institute for Advanced Studies (Kyoto) could recognize that the Cold War was over and that politico-economic restructuring would take place among the powers in the Warsaw Treaty Organization. Much has happened

Overview: Während sich Teil A des siebenten Bandes der vollständigen (vierten) Neuaus­ gabe von Hagers Handbuch der Pharmazeutischen Praxis mit den in der Pharma­ zeutischen Technologie gebräuchlichen Grundoperationen, dem Messen und Rech­ nen und vor allem mit den Arzneiformen befaßt, werden in Teil B die für die Arzneibereitung wichtigsten Hilfsstoffe behandelt. Sie finden sich so weit wie mög­ lich nach chemischen oder physikalisch-chemischen Gesichtspunkten zusammen­ gefaßt in Kapiteln, die ihrerseits alphabetisch angeordnet sind. Da einzelne Hilfs­ stoffe sowohl als solche als auch zu the

Overview: The roots of Borel sets go back to the work of Baire [8]. He was trying to come to grips with the abstract notion of a function introduced by Dirich­ let and Riemann. According to them, a function was to be an arbitrary correspondence between objects without giving any method or procedure by which the correspondence could be established. Since all the specific functions that one studied were determined by simple analytic expressions, Baire delineated those functions that can be constructed starting from con­ tinuous functions and iterating the operation 0/ pointwise limit on a se­ qu

Overview: The ability to introduce macromolecules into animal cells, includ­ ing DNA, RNA, proteins, and other bioactive compounds has facili­ tated a broad range of biological studies, from biochemistry and biophysics to molecular biology, cell biology, and whole animal stud­ ies. Gene transfer technology in particular will continue to play an essential role in studies aimed at improving our understanding of the relationships between the gene structure and function, and it has impor­ tant practical applications in both biotechnology and biomedicine, as evidenced by the current intense interes

Overview: Lebendige Forschungsergebnisse - verständlich und fächerübergreifend dargestelltDer vorliegende Band ist das Ergebnis einer spontanen Idee, die anläßlich der Emeritierung unseres lieben Kollegen und akademischen Lehrers, Professor Dr. Walter Oberschelp, geboren wurde und nun zu seinen Ehren als Festschrift erscheint. Bei der Namensgebung der Festschrift mußte auch nicht lange überlegt werden - die Einzigartigkeit und die Geschichte des durch Walter Oberschelp über nahezu drei Jahrzehnte geführten Lehrstuhls für "Angewandte Mathe­ matik, insbesondere Informatik" lag nicht nur als Name

Overview: Subjektivierung und Selbsverantwortung in Arbeitszusammenhängen.Das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen autonomen Subjekten und Fremdbestimmung.Interdisziplinäre Ansätze.Der Wandel von Arbeit, der als Subjektivierung und Digitalisierung diskutiert wird, hat unerwartete Folgen: Mehr Selbstverantwortung schafft noch keine befreite Welt der Erwerbsarbeit, und Technik dringt in die Domänen geistiger Arbeit ein. Der Band versammelt Analysen aus soziologischer, psychologischer und psychoanalytischer Sicht und beleuchtet Subjektivität in der Erwerbsarbeit mithilfe verschiedener theoretisch-konzept

Overview: New articles in social sciences.Includes supplementary material: Competition-based models for research policy and management have an increasing influence throughout the research process, from attracting funding to publishing results. The introduction of quality control methods utilizing various forms of performance indicators is part of this development. The authors presented in this volume deal with the following questions: What counts as ‘quality’ and how can this be assessed? What are the possible side effects of current quality control systems on research conducted in the Europea

Overview: This book introduces an approach that can be used to ground a variety of intelligent systems, ranging from simple fact based systems to highly sophisticated reasoning systems. As the popularity of AI related fields has grown over the last decade, the number of persons interested in building intelligent systems has increased exponentially. Some of these people are highly skilled and experienced in the use of Al techniques, but many lack that kind of expertise. Much of the literature that might otherwise interest those in the latter category is not appreci ated by them because the mate

Overview: Research on aplastic anaemia has until recently been limited to clinical description, morphology and epidemiology. New methods to culture haemopoietic cells, and advances in our knowledge of proliferation and differentiation in the haemopoietic cell system .opened a new area of scientific interest for this "prototype" of haemopoietic failure. In addition, bone marrow transplantation became not only a clinical method of treatment, but also a source of data useful for the discussion of pathophysiological models of aplastic anaemia. This situation prompted us to arrange an international
