Overview: Publication in the field of economic sciences.In this empirical analysis Sara Polier investigates forward-looking external search strategies and their impact on the value contribution of corporate foresight. Based on a mixed method approach combining a quantitative and qualitative analysis of large, R&D-intensive firms, the findings reveal a general positive influence of different search strategies with respect to the scope (i.e. breadth, depth, and distance) and direction of search (i.e. market, science, and intermediary-driven) on the role of foresight as a driver for innovation. T

Overview: Contributions from academics and policymakers • First book to directly treat the Gramm Leach Bliley Act, the most important financial legislation in the last 75 years •.Includes contribution from CongWhat role should regulation play in financial markets? What have been the ramifications of financial regulation? To answer these and other questions regarding the efficacy of legislation on financial markets, this book examines the impact of the Gramm Leach Bliley Act (GLBA), also called the Financial Modernization Act of 1999, which fundamentally changed the financial landscape in the U

Overview: It is not so very long ago that botanical concensus abandoned the distinction that was drawn between Algae and Flagellata, the latter having been regarded by zoologists as a group of the Protozoa. Even today some colourless flagellates may find themselves occupying different locations in contrasting taxonomic schemes. However, modern developments in ecology have placed greater emphasis on functional attributes of organisms, and hydro biologists have certainly been in the forefront of such changes. Thus we find that flagellates are again the subject of controversy, not so much over th

Overview: The first book to provide a thorough discussion on attribution in network forensics.Presents an exhaustive literature survey on theoretical models and implemented frameworks.Introduces a wide range ofThis timely text/reference presents a detailed introduction to the essential aspects of computer network forensics. The book considers not only how to uncover information hidden in email messages, web pages and web servers, but also what this reveals about the functioning of the Internet and its core protocols. This, in turn, enables the identification of shortcomings and highlights wher

Overview: Extensive analysis of the development of switching theory as mathematical foundations for modern logic design, and circuit design in general.Pictorial history book of Applications of Boolean Logic in .Logic networks and automata are facets of digital systems. The change of  the design of logic networks from skills and art into a scientific discipline was possible by the development of the  underlying mathematical theory called the Switching Theory. The fundamentals of this theory come from the attempts towards an algebraic description of laws of thoughts presented  in the works by Ge

Overview: Focuses on key concepts and various interpretations of gender and gender equality.Deconstructs the patriarchal matrix and power relations within mainstream political and legal theories.Raises awarenes.This book raises awareness about gender perspective in political and legal theories and historical analysis. The impacts of feminist political and legal theories, as well as critical legal studies, have been embedded in all the papers in different ways and degrees. Differences among feminist political and legal ideas are visible in the different approaches. The ongoing issue of defining

Overview: Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D. thesis by Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Korea University.Reports the ReRAM properties of a biocompatible KN ReRAM memristor powered by the KN nanog.This thesis describes an investigation into homogeneous KN crystalline films grown on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates, amorphous KN films grown on TiN/Si substrates using the RF-sputtering method, and the ferroelectic and piezoelectric properties of these KN films. KNbO3 (KN) thin films have been extensively investigated for applications in nonlinear optical, electro-optical and piezoelectric

Overview: The global scope of the changes in the international financial and monetary systems ensured that no nation-state could protect itself from their effects. The quarter-century, 1970-95, included the most extensive legislative overhaul of financial services policy since the Great Depression, if not the greatest set of changes ever. This book examines how five such states - Canada, France, Germany, UK, USA - adapted by reforming their financial services policies.978-1-349-24716-5978-1-349-24714-1Series ISSN 2662-2483 Series E-ISSN 2662-2491

Overview: Transhistorical study, from 18th Century to the 21st Century.First collection of essays to examine the connection between fashion and authorship.Examines a variety of authors, from Virginia Woolf to BStudies of fashion and literature in recent decades have focused primarily on representations of clothing and dress within literary texts. But what about the author? How did he dress? What where her shopping practices and predilections? What were his alliances with modishness, stylishness, fashion? The essays in this book explore these and other questions as they look at authors from the

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Various forms of decentralization are recently pursued in the world, including developing countries. However, there has not been a coherent framework to access these intended outcomes generated by decentralization measures implemented in Asian and African countries. This book provides such a framework based on comparative analyses of different experiences of decentralization measures in six developing countries, where the policy rationale to “bring services closer to people” originated in different socio-political backgrounds. Although decentralizati

Overview: Einführung in die Grundzüge einer NahrungsgeographieDas Buch befasst sich mit Nahrungslandschaften, sogenannten ‚foodscapes‘, die ein noch recht junges Forschungsfeld der Sozialwissenschaften darstellen und im Kontext von Fragen der räumlichen Ungleichheit ab Mitte der 1990er Jahre erstmals thematisiert wurden. Neben einer Einführung in verschiedene Landschaftskonzepte sowie einem kurzen historischen Abriss zur geographischen Auseinandersetzung mit Nahrungsmitteln fokussiert der Band auf die Multidimensionalität der Nahrungslandschaften und verdeutlicht diese an zwei Fallbeispielen..

Overview: What fractions are and how to calculate with them.Why there are also numbers that cannot be expressed as fractions.Why it is so important for percentages to know what the basic value isRenate Motzer introduces the world of fractions and connects them with decimal numbers. She clearly shows that fractions can be understood as parts of a whole, but also as ratios of two quantities. The author clearly shows why roots cannot be exactly indicated by fractions, how to find good approximations and why an unusual addition of fractions can lead to paradoxical results. Furthermore, she explain
