Overview: Engineering registration is accelerating at a pace unequalled since institution of registration laws in the 1920s and 1930s. This phenomenon is not due to an easing of entrance require­ ments, since only vestiges of "grand fathering" and eminence exist in most states. Nor is it due to a lessening in the difficulty of the registration examinations. In fact, it is generally agreed that the Engineering Fundamentals Examination has significantly increased in difficulty over the last fifteen years. Why then the increased interest in registration among practicing engineers? Historically th

Overview: .Menschliche Entscheidungsträger treffen täglich unzählige Entscheidungen, deren Folgen von geringer bis hin zu weitreichender Bedeutung sein können. Bei der Entscheidungsfindung bzw. Problemlösung greifen sie auf Wissen zurück. Verfügen sie nicht über ausreichendes Wissen, ist eine weitere Informationsaufnahme und -verarbeitung erforderlich, die die kognitiven Fähigkeiten berücksichtigt. Diese kann u. a. durch die Bereitstellung von Advice erfolgen. Entscheidungsträger nutzen Advice, um ihre Entscheidungen zu verbessern, Risiken zu teilen oder fehlendes Wissen und Expertise auszugle

Overview: Stresses the application of statistical techniques Discussing numerous examples dealing with the analysis of observed data and with the evaluation of model resultsThis volume has grown from an Autumn School about "Analysis of Climat~ Variability - Applications of Statistical techniques" on Elba in November 1993. We have included those lectures which referred explicitly to appli­ cations of statistical techniques in climate science, since we felt that general descriptions of statistical methods, both at the introductory and at advanced level, are already available. We tried to stress

Overview: Comprehensive book on the outer influence on hearing and how to achieve perfect stereo effects.Important for the design of concert halls and loudspeakers.Explanation of sound effects and stereophonyIn a good concert hall, a big orchestra can evoke remarkably spacious sounds. The concertgoer is surrounded by the physical sound waves, and out of these waves the subjective sound impressions are created in the listener’s head. This biological “measuring device” organized itself during childhood. With no special effort—and quite continuously—it performs parallel data proce- ing and makes

Overview: This book contains more than the IEEE Standard 1149.4. It also contains the thoughts of those who developed the standard. Adam Osseiran has edited the original writings of Brian Wilkins, Colin Maunder, Rod Tulloss, Steve Sunter, Mani Soma, Keith Lofstrom and John McDermid, all of whom have personally contributed to this standard. To preserve the original spirit, only minor changes were made, and the reader will sense a chapter-to-chapter variation in the style of expression. This may appear awkward to some, although I found the Iack of monotonicity refreshing. A system consists of a

Overview: A comprehensive yet concise reference guide to the normal appearances and complications that may be encountered on neuroradiological examinations following surgery to the head, neck, and spine.ContainAs a result of the increasing number of surgical procedures on the brain, head, neck, and spine, postoperative changes are being encountered more frequently on neuroradiological examinations. However, these findings are often unfamiliar to neuroradiologists and neurosurgeons and can be difficult to interpret. This book, which contains numerous images and to-the-point case descriptions, i
