Overview: `A pioneering and valuable study linking finance to innovative activity: not only is the theoretical framework sound, thought-provoking and creative, but amply supported through systematic empirical testing.‘ - David B. Audretsch, Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin fur Sozialforschung This book broadens the economic explanation of technological change, by assuming that development and diffusion of new technologies are closely related to the financial arrangements and institutions which prevail in any given historical period. To support his hypothesis, the author combines theoretical prescri

Overview: This book offers a comprehensive view of the best and thelatest work infunctional programming. It is the proceedingsof a major internationalconference and contains 30 papersselected from 126 submitted. A number ofthemes emerge. Oneis a growing interest in types: powerful type systemsortype checkers supporting overloading, coercion, dynamictypes, and incremental inference; linear types to optimizestorage, and polymorphictypes to optimize semanticanalysis. The hot topic of partial evaluation is wellrepresented: techniques for higher-order binding-timeanalysis,assuring termination of pa

Overview: Includes supplementary material: It‘s well known that the structural characteristics of food materials influence their mass transfer, especially their water transfer properties during such processes as drying, hydration, and storage. In porous cereal-based products, for example, effective water diffusivity is highly affected by the volume fraction and distribution of both solid and gas phases, while in dense food materials, such as fat-based or other edible coatings, it depends on factors that affect the "tightness" of the molecular structure (e.g., free volume, cohesive energy densi

Overview: Eine effiziente Konzernführung erfordert Instrumente, mit denen die Wertentwicklung der Konzernteileinheiten beurteilt werden kann. Die derzeit im Konzerncontrolling eingesetzten Instrumente erfüllen diese Kernaufgabe nur unzureichend. Cord Landsmann entwickelt das innovative Konzept des Beteiligungs-VOFI, das die für Konzerne maßgebliche Zielsetzung der Marktwertmaximierung operationalisiert. Der finanzplanorientierte Ansatz vereint die methodischen Stärken des APV-Ansatzes mit dem theoretischen Fundament des CAPM und erlaubt die zielorientierte Steuerung einzelner Teileinheiten wäh

Overview: Fluorescence microscopy images can be easily integrated into current video and computer image processing systems. People like visual observation; they like to watch a television or computer screen, and fluorescence techniques are thus becoming more and more popular. Since true in vivo experiments are simple to perform, samples can be directly seen and there is always the possibility of manipulating the samples during the experiments; it is an ideal technique for biology and medicine. Images are obtained by a classical (now called wide-field) fluorescence microscope, a confocal scanni

Overview: Analysis of current fisheries subsidies regulations and negotiating history within the WTO to help readers understand the issues involved in the development of new regulations.In-depth analysis of theSubsidies to fisheries have been in existence for centuries. However, these remained outside the spotlight of the international community until the turn of this century when the negative effects that fisheries subsidies have on international trade, the environment and sustainable development became increasingly clear. As a result the Doha Round Negotiations set the parameters for an effe

Overview: Includes a chapter with innovative methods to finance start-ups.Examines decentralized finance (DeFi), a revolutionary ecosystem.Brings together the expertise of practitioners and scholars.There is no doubt that the proliferation of entrepreneurial activity is a current trend. Start-ups enable an effective transformation of knowledge, generating high added value to society. The objective of this book is to address the financing of the entrepreneurial process as a necessary element to articulate a solid business fabric, based on taking advantage of new opportunities. The book is struc

Overview: .In recent years major floods have occurred across Europe causing serious damages and huge financial implications. Flood risk and vulnerability is increasing with increased frequency of occurrence of extreme events due to climate change, changes in land-use, encroachment into floodplains and increasing economic value of assets and businesses. Human lives, property, environment and socio-economics are at increasing risk due to flooding. Recent alarming events in Central Europe, UK and The Netherlands have provided renewed impetus to the development of improved policies and techniques

Overview: Rigorous analytical approach to structural optimization problems.Clear and concise presentation of closed-form solutions to optimization problems.Enables readers to independently set and solve new opt.This book serves as a complementary resource to the courses "Advanced structural optimization" and "Structural optimization in automotive engineering" taught by the author at the University of Siegen, North-Rhine-Westphalia, Germany since 2001. Focusing on optimization problems in the field of structural engineering, this book offers a rigorous and analytical approach to problem-solving

Overview: Correlation of risk assessment, communication and post-disaster evaluation Topical representation of the subjectThroughout the last 20 years, the study of disasters has developed into a well­ respected body of know ledge in the social sciences. Disaster research has found its way to several disciplines and it has been remarkably receptive to multi­ and interdisciplinary impulses. Many disaster studies show how important and stimulating it is to explore events and developments which reach beyond the usual business of the social and political fabric. There. is quite a difference betwee

Overview: In diesem Buch wird der Frage nachgegangen, welche Auswirkungen die Bildung einer Europäischen Währungsunion auf die Defizit- und Verschuldungspolitiken der Mitgliedsstaaten haben kann. Die Hypothese, Marktkräfte allein seien in der Lage, unsolide Defizitpolitiken zu disziplinieren, wird theoretisch fundiert und für die Situation in der Europäischen Währungsunion widerlegt. .Die spieltheoretische Anaylse einer "solidarischen" Währungsunion liefert darüberhinaus Argumente dafür, daß sich die Verschuldungsneigung einzelner Staaten in der Währungsunion aufgrund erwarteter Transfers erhö

Overview: Alle Werke im Überblick.Publikumswirkung und RezeptionDas Werk analysiert und interpretiert. Dürrenmatts Ästhetik geht überwiegend vom Visuellen aus. Diese Bildhaftigkeit seiner Gegenentwürfe zur Realität verlangt nach einer Deutung, die Szene, Form und Bewegung als textuelles Element zum Sprechen bringt. Gerhard P. Knapp behandelt in diesem Band das gesamte Werk Dürrenmatts. Sein besonderes Augenmerk richtet er dabei auf Fragen der Publikumswirkung und der Rezeption.978-3-476-12196-7978-3-476-04099-2Series ISSN 0558-3667 Series E-ISSN 2512-5222

Overview: Electron energy loss spectroscopy (ELS) is a vast subject with a long and honorable history. The problem of stopping power for high energy particles interested the earliest pioneers of quantum mechanics such as Bohr and Bethe, who laid the theoretical foun­ dations of the subject. The experimental origins might perhaps be traced to the original Franck-Hertz experiment. The modern field includes topics as diverse as low energy reflection electron energy loss studies of surface vibrational modes, the spectroscopy of gases and the modern theory of plasmon excitation in crystals. For the
