Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Anonymization of Electronic Medical Records to Support Clinical Analysis closely examines the privacy threats that may arise from medical data sharing, and surveys the state-of-the-art methods developed to safeguard data against these threats. .To motivate the need for computational methods, the book first explores the main challenges facing the privacy-protection of medical data using the existing policies, practices and regulations. Then, it takes an in-depth look at the popular computational privacy-preserving methods that have been developed for

Overview: Astrometry is on the threshold of great changes due to the fact that this decade, alone, is witnessing an improvement of stellar positions equivalent to the total improvement of the previous two centuries. The Hipparcos Satellite has concluded its observations, and the catalog is in preparation. Preliminary results assure that the Hipparcos catalog will provide positions, parallaxes and annual proper motions for over 100,000 stars with accuracies of 1.5 milliarcseconds. In addition, the Tycho catalog will provide positions of about 30 milliarcseconds accuracy for over 1 million stars

Overview: Die "Allgemeine Betriebswirtschaftslehre" -geht man von der Bezeichnung des Faches aus - ist die Lehre vom "allgemeinen" Wirtschaftsbetrieb schlechthin, dessen Erscheinun­ gen und Probleme sie zu beschreiben und zu erklären und für den sie praktische Entschei­ dungshilfen bereitzustellen hat. Da es den "allgemeinen" Wirtschaftsbetrieb in der Praxis jedoch nicht gibt, orientiert man sich in der betriebswirtschaftliehen Literatur meist am Industriebetrieb, da hier noch am ehesten alle betrieblichen Funktionsbereiche mehr oder weniger intensiv angesprochen werden. Sehr viele Abhandlunge

It discusses the influence of HEBM parameters on grain refinement and examines methods for the consolidation of nanocrystalline Al powders; further, it reviews the effects of various processing parameters on the final microstructure and the impact of micr

Overview: EUROGRAPHICS workshops on Graphics hardware have now become an established forum for an exchange of information con­ cerning the latest developments in this field of growing importance. The first workshop took place during EG‘86 in Lisbon. All parti­ cipants in this event considered it a very rewarding workshop to be repeated at future EG conferences. This view was reinforced at the EG‘87 Hardware Workshop in Amsterdam which firmly esta­ blished the need for and a high interest in such a colloquium of technical discussion in this specialist area within the annual EG conference. The t

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.978-3-642-89399-5978-3-642-91255-9

Overview: Abdominal Wall Hernias is the most up-to-date, comprehensive reference on all aspects of hernia repair. The editor, a world renowned figure in hernia surgery, has assembled a group of more than 120 experts from 16 countries to discuss state-of-the-art approaches to conventional open repairs using both tissue-to-tissue techniques as well as the use of prosthetic mesh, to the various minimally invasive approaches, the repair of recurrent and massive hernias, the pertinent anatomy, basic science, and emerging biomaterials. The authors present the full spectrum of operations and procedur

Overview: "Polymer Science and Engineering: Challenges, Needs, and Opportunities," a report issued in 1981 by the National Research Council‘s ad hoc Panel on Polymer Science and Engineering gives ample support for the urgent need of increased commitment to basic studies on polymers. Needs and opportunities, mentioned in the Panel‘s list, included polymerization methods, specialty polymers, high performance materials, and in situ (reaction injection molding) polymerization for direct conversion of monomers/oligomers to useful shapes. Clearly, in all these and several other areas, advances in po

Overview: An increasing variety of biological problems involving resourcemanagement, conservation and environmental quality have been dealtwith using the principles of population biology (defined to includepopulation dynamics, genetics and certain aspects of communityecology). There appears to be a mixed record of successes and failuresand almost no critical synthesis or reviews that have attempted todiscuss the reasons and ways in which population biology, with itsremarkable theoretical as well as experimental advances, could findmore useful application in agriculture, forestry, fishery, medi

Overview: The optimisation of economic systems over time, and in an uncertain environment, is central to the study of economic behaviour. The behaviour of rational decision makers, whether they are market agents, firms, or governments and their agencies, is governed by decisions designed to seeure the best outcomes subject to the perceived information and economic responses (inlcuding those of other agents). Economic behaviour has therefore to be analysed in terms of the outcomes of a multiperiod stochastic optimisation process containing four main components: the economic responses (the dynam

Overview: There are no Agile method books around which acknowledge the realities within which most software projects have to work (such as imposed by methods such as PRINCE).Additionally, most books focus on on.In every software development project there is a need to ensure that the requirements of the user are met without compromising the ultimate goal of the project - these needs frequently change, and are often erratic. Agile software is a means of putting the software first while at the same time reacting to these user requirements in a flexible and agile way...This book covers the emergin

Overview: This is probably the first monograph that treats the asympotic methods which are eminently important for practical applications.Includes supplementary material: Asymptotic methods are of great importance for practical applications, especially in dealing with boundary value problems for small stochastic perturbations. This book deals with nonlinear dynamical systems perturbed by noise. It addresses problems in which noise leads to qualitative changes, escape from the attraction domain, or extinction in population dynamics. The most likely exit point and expected escape time are determ
