Overview: Data quality is one of the most important problems in data management. A database system typically aims to support the creation, maintenance, and use of large amount of data, focusing on the quantity of data. However, real-life data are often dirty: inconsistent, duplicated, inaccurate, incomplete, or stale. Dirty data in a database routinely generate misleading or biased analytical results and decisions, and lead to loss of revenues, credibility and customers. With this comes the need for data quality management. In contrast to traditional data management tasks, data quality managem

Overview: Becomes the first work to shed light on contemporary reformulations of the ‘Final Girl‘ in film, TV and literature, focusing specifically on popular texts representative of the 21st century.Stands apa.This volume examines contemporary reformulations of the ‘Final Girl’ in film, TV, literature and comic, expanding the discussion of the trope beyond the slasher subgenre. Focusing specifically on popular texts that emerged in the 21st century, the volume asks: What is the sociocultural context that facilitated the remarkable proliferation of the Final Girls? What kinds of stories are to

Overview: A discussion on the continuity and change forces with real life examples.Proposing a metaphorical approach to strategy in the form of Continuity-Change matrix.Presenting first major implementable framThough the concern regarding the confluence of continuity and change is well accepted, there is hardly any well known framework in the literature that can be used as a benchmark to deal with this paradoxical issue. Keeping in view the significance of the topic and the lack of practical frameworks in managing continuity and change this book is an endeavor to fill the gap. The main proposi

Overview: Gestützt auf die Theorie der dynamischen Optimierung wird ein Konzept zur Messung der Flexibilität beliebiger betrieblicher Systeme vorgestellt. Die Flexibilität eines Systems, mit der man dessen Fähigkeit zur Bewältigung von Unsicherheit und Dynamik verbindet, ist eng korreliert mit der Fähigkeit des Systems, zu überleben. Das vorgestellte Flexibilitätsmaß kann deshalb zur Unterstützung strategischer Auswahlentscheidungen über Systemlayouts eingesetzt werden. Darüber hinaus werden in diesem Buch Probleme der Planung und Steuerung flexibler Potentiale untersucht, die das Verständnis

Overview: Helps readers sift through the daily plethora FX information with better rigour.Distills FX views that are rooted in macroeconomic theory of risk premiums, interest rates, and inflation.Allows readers.One of the great challenges that many participants in foreign exchange (FX) markets face is sifting through the often overwhelming amount of information that is available. Media outlets stream updates on international politics, economics, and other factors that move FX prices twenty-four hours a day. It is difficult to work out what is and what is not important. This book helps its read

Overview: First serious attempt to gather all of the available theory of "nonharmonic Fourier series" in one place, combining published results with new results by the authors.Advance Praise for .Fourier Series in Control Theory.:.It has been known since 1967 that a wide variety of sets of complex exponential functions play an important role in the control theory of systems governed by partial differential equations. Up until now, the relevant literature has been scattered among various journal articles, a survey paper by myself in SIAM Review in 1978, and the book, .Families of Exponentials.,

Overview: Artificial neural networks have been recognized as a powerful tool to learn and reproduce systems in various fields of applications. Neural net­ works are inspired by the brain behavior and consist of one or several layers of neurons, or computing units, connected by links. Each artificial neuron receives an input value from the input layer or the neurons in the previ­ ous layer. Then it computes a scalar output from a linear combination of the received inputs using a given scalar function (the activation function), which is assumed the same for all neurons. One of the main propertie

Eine zentrale Rolle spielen dabei die Körper­ flüssigkeiten, der Säure-Basen-Haushalt, die Hormone, die Mineralsubstanzen, das Binde-und Stützgewebe und die Ernährung. Naturgemäß ergeben sich daraus zahlreiche Verflech­ tungen mit der Physiologie. Der Verfasser war in solchen Fällen darum bemüht, die Sachverhalte interdisziplinär aufzubereiten, ohne jedoch dabei In

Overview: Quantum optics in the most general sense seeks to understand the physical phenomena related to the interaction of radiation and matter. The field has therefore always been characterized by an enormous span of activities from fundamental investigations - e.g., into the nature of radiation fields - to spectroscopic methods for applied research. The 18 invited lectures presented at the seminar on "Fundamentals of Quantum Optics II" in Obergurgl, Austria, in the winter of 1987 cover the following topics: - chaos in quantum systems; - squeezed quantum states; - quantum jumps; - quantum el
