Overview: Seit Beginn der achtziger Jahre hat sich die weltwirtschaftliche Arbeitsteilung nicht nur intensiviert, sondern auf immer neue Bereiche -Risikokapital, Dienstleistungen, Tech­ nologie und Wissen -ausgedehnt Zugleich haben sich ihre Organisationsformen verän­ dert: Aus national operierenden Großunternehmen, die untereinander in Wettbewerb traten, sind international und global agierende Einheiten geworden, die Beschaffungs­ und Absatzmärkte weltumspannend organisieren. Die Konkurrenz der Länder ist inso­ weit zur Konkurrenz von Standorten innerhalb großer Wirtschaftsregionen geworden.

Overview: In the 1920‘s, Walter Shewhart visualized that the marriage of statistical methods and manufacturing processes would produce reliable and consistent quality products. Shewhart (1931) conceived the idea of statistical process control (SPC) and developed the well-known and appropriately named Shewhart control chart. However, from the 1930s to the 1990s, literature on SPC schemes have been "captured" by the Shewhart paradigm of normality, independence and homogeneous variance. When in fact, the problems facing today‘s industries are more inconsistent than those faced by Shewhart in the

Overview: The 4th International Visual Field Symposium of the International Perimetric Society, was held on the 13-16 April 1980 in Bristol, England,at the occasion of the 6th Congress of the European Society of Ophthalmology. The main themes of the symposium were comparison of classical perimetry with visual evoked response, comparison of classical perimetry with special psychophysi­ cal methods, and optic nerve pathology. Understandably many papers dealt with computer assisted perimetry. This rapidly developing subgroup of peri­ metry may radically change the future of our method of examinat

Overview: Gives insights into the life and science of one of the most fascinating physicists of the twentieth century.Provides easy-to-grasp explanations at high school level, leading to a deep appreciation of .This book takes the reader on a journey through the life of Richard Feynman and describes, in non-technical terms, his revolutionary contributions to modern physics. Feynman was an unconventional thinker who always tried to get to the bottom of things. In doing so, he developed an intuitive view that made him one of the greatest teachers of physics. The author captures this development

Overview: From Song to Print is a study of the major cultural transition from oral forms of art and discourse to the commercial culture of print that happened during the Industrial Revolution. Through a discussion of ancient musical forms (classical, biblical, and early-modern poetry of song), this book explores the typographical simulation of music and oral poetry during the nineteenth century. Original and innovative, this work shows how the musical writings of Romantic poets, such as Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, and Keats, evoke antique cultures and ancient settings while offering a critiq

Overview: HIS book presents a generalized state-space theory for the analysis T and synthesis of finite horizon suboptimal Hoo controllers. We de­ rive expressions for a suboptimal controller in a general setting and propose an approximate solution to the Hoo performance robustness problem. The material in the book is taken from a collection of research papers written by the author. The book is organized as follows. Chapter 1 treats nonlinear optimal control problems in which the cost functional is of the form of a quotient or a product of powers of definite integrals. The problems considered

Overview: Image processing is a fascinating applications area, not a fundamental science of sufficient generality to warrant studying it for its own sake. In this area, there are many opportunities to apply art and experience, as well as knowledge from a number of sciences and engineering disciplines, to the creation of products and processes for which society has an expressed need. Without this need, work in the field would be sterile, but with it, image processing can readily provide the interested scientist or engineer with a professional lifetime of challenging problems and corresponding r
