Overview: Mobile Marketing gewinnt in der Unternehmenspraxis zunehmend an Bedeutung. Einen interessanten Anwendungsbereich für mobile Dienste stellen Kundenkartenprogramme dar, bei denen sowohl die Kundenkarte und Coupons, als auch die Programmkommunikation auf das Handy übertragen werden können. Jan Prein untersucht, inwieweit Konsumenten mobile Dienste in Kundenkartenprogrammen tatsächlich akzeptieren und welche Faktoren die Akzeptanz beeinflussen. Auf der Basis der Ergebnisse einer umfangreichen empirischen Untersuchung gibt der Autor Empfehlungen für die erfolgreiche Gestaltung mobiler Kun

Overview: Public concern is being increasingly directed to pesticides and their residues in ground and surface waters. Water - one of the necessities of life - has to be kept clean for man and the environment. Part I and II of this book describe in an authoritative way all aspects of modern analysis of pesticides in water by the consequent use of hyphenated techniques like GC-AED or HPLC-MS. .978-3-662-01065-5978-3-662-01063-1Series ISSN 0937-2148

Overview: Defines Nature Based Solutions in terms of water source, contaminants, removal mechanisms and resource potential within the context of a Circular Economy.Presents a technology portfolio of Nature Base.This book aims to define the concept of Nature Based Solutions (NBS) by using case studies from members of the European Innovation Partnership (EIP) Water Action Group - NatureWat. NBS is defined and characterized in terms of water source, contaminants, removal mechanisms and resource recovery potential. The case studies presented illustrate the appropriateness of NBS promoting climate

Overview: ABOUT THE SUBJECT MATTER Adolescence is a time of significant change. The adolescent era spans the interval between childhood and adulthood. It is a time of physical, social, and even emotional upheaval. During this relatively brief period of time not only does physical growth accelerate but, of more significance in the biology of any species, the individual attains reproductive maturity. Within this time frame, the human being acquires the capacity to procreate and perpetuate our species. From a reproductive standpoint, throughout adeolescence the individual is being prepared for pe

Overview: Up-to-date review of the state of the art.Important methods for surface and semiconductor physics.Includes supplementary material: The book describes RHEED (reflection high-energy electron diffraction) used as a tool for crystal growth. New methods using RHEED to characterize surfaces and interfaces during crystal growth by MBE (molecular beam epitaxy) are presented. Special emphasis is put on RHEED intensity oscillations, segregation phenomena, electron energy-loss spectroscopy and RHEED with rotating substrates.978-3-662-15614-8978-3-540-49485-0Series ISSN 0081-3869 Series E-ISSN 1

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-642-98465-5978-3-642-99279-7

Overview: The first contribution covers the theory of finite groups of Lie type, which is an important field of current mathematical research. After giving the basic information Carter describes the Deligne-Lusztig method of obtaining characters of these groups using l-adic cohomology and subsequent work of Lusztig..The second part by Platonov and Yanchevskii surveys the structure of finite-dimensional division algebras and includes an account of reduced K-theory.978-3-642-08167-5978-3-662-03235-0Series ISSN 0938-0396

Overview: A clearly written summary of what is known about the concept of the magnetic vector potential and its versatile role in various areas of physics, in one concise volume.A unique text putting the magnetThe connection between the electric and magnetic fields is fundamental to our understanding of light as electromagnetic waves. The magnetic vector potential lies at the heart of this relation. The idea emerged in the early days of research in electromagnetism but was dismissed for more than half a century until the formulation of quantum electrodynamics. The magnetic vector potential is

Overview: It is not easy to summarize -even in a volume -the results of a scientific study con­ ducted by circa 30 researchers, in four different research institutions, though cooperating between them and jointly with the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, but working part-time, sponsored not only by IIASA‘s national currency funds, but also by several other research grants in Poland. The aims of this cooperative study were de­ fined broadly by its title Theory, Software and Testing Examples for Decision Support Systems. The focusing theme was the methodology of decision ana

Overview: Die Teile I bis 111 dieses Buch entsprechen inhaltlich einer zweisemestrigen Einführung in die Datenverarbeitung für Ingenieurstudenten. Der Stundenumfang wird dabei mit insgesamt 4 Semesterwochenstunden Vorlesung und ebenso vielen Übungen angesetzt. Der Text, der auch ein Selbststudium erlauben soll, orientiert sich am PC und dessen Möglichkeiten. Die Einführung soll so praktisch wie möglich sein, d.h. der Leser erhält die Gelegenheit, das Gelernte weitgehend am eigenen - oder schuleigenen PC nachzuvollziehen. Aus diesem Grund nimmt der Übungsteil einen sehr breiten Raum ein. Die Di

Overview: Wenn ich ein neues Buch zur Hand nehme, lese ich immer zuerst den Schluß, denn ich habe herausgefunden, daß auch in schwierigen Büchern gewöhnlich Schlußfolgerungen gezogen werden, die leicht zu lesen sind, und das gibt mir eine erste Vorstellung vom Inhalt. So erwarte ich natürlich auch von meinen Lesern, daß sie es so halten! Das vorliegende Buch bietet sogar eine Gelegenheit, die Methode zu verallgemei­ nern. Nachdem der Leser Kapitel14 überflogen hat, sollte er vorzugsweise die Kapitel 5, 2, 13 und 10 oder wenigstens einige davon (in dieser oder einer an­ deren Reihenfolge) lesen
