Overview: A compendium of the results of the very successful Infrared Space Observatory.A very readable account of the main progresses in Infrared astronomy prior to the Spitzer probe.Stars are born and die in clouds of gas and dust, opaque to most types of radiation, but transparent in the infrared. Requiring complex detectors, space missions and cooled telescopes, infrared astronomy is the last branch of this discipline to come of age. After a very successful sky survey performed in the eighties by the IRAS satellite, the Infrared Space Observatory, in the nineties, brought spectacular advan

Overview: Geleitwort Brasilien wird neben China, Indien und Russland langfristig zu den wirtschaftlich interessantesten Nationen der Welt gerechnet. Wer dieses Land aus langjähriger eigener Anschauung kennt, höchste Ansprüche an wissenschaftliches Arbeiten erfüllt und zugleich unternehmerisch international tätig ist, der ist für eine Studie zum Markteintritt in Brasilien prädestiniert. Speziell bei mittelständischen Unternehmen liegt es nahe, die Kompete- orientierung neben der Marktorientierung als zentralen Ansatzpunkt zur Lösung von Problemen der Internationalisierung zu wählen, weil in die

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This brief examines the challenges of integrating distributed energy resources and high-power elastic loads into low-voltage distribution grids, as well as the potential for pervasive measurement. It explores the control needed to address these challenges and achieve various system-level and user-level objectives. A mathematical framework is presented for the joint control of active end-nodes at scale, and extensive numerical simulations demonstrate that proper control of active end-nodes can significantly enhance reliable and economical operation of

Overview: Die Vorteile von Outsourcing sind weitgehend unbestritten. Um aber das Potential von Outsourcing-Beziehungen in vollem Umfang nutzen zu können, müssen institutionelle Rahmenbedingungen geschaffen werden, die einerseits opportunistisches Verhalten eines Partners verhindern und andererseits möglichst geringe Kosten verursachen. Auf der Basis eines Modells unvollständiger Verträge untersucht Stefan Wielenberg verschiedene Vertragstypen in Hinsicht auf Anreizwirkungen und Absicherungsbedarf. Der Autor weist nach, dass die in der Praxis verbreiteten Vertragsformen und -klauseln zu stark v

Overview: Banks are exposed to various kinds of risks; among them are credit default risks, market price risks and operational risks the most important ones. Aggregating these different risk ex- sures to a comprehensive risk position is an important, yet challenging and up to now un- solved task. Banks’ current state of the art in risk management is still far away from achieving a fully integrated view of the risks they are exposed to. This shortfall traces back to both, to conceptual problems of constructing an appropriate risk model and to the computational b- den of calculating a loss distr

Overview: Die heutzutage übliche Ernährung in den Industriestaaten zeichnet sich durch einen hohen Anteil tierischer Produkte, welcher Ernährungsempfehlungen weit übersteigt, aus. Da der Konsum von Lebensmittel tierischen Ursprungs in diesem Ausmaß nicht nur zu gesundheitlichen Problemen führen kann, sondern aufgrund der gängigen Produktionspraktiken auch erheblich zur Umweltverschmutzung beiträgt, gilt er als nicht nachhaltig. Diesen Herausforderungen wird die relativ neue Produktgruppe der veganen Lebensmittelsubstitute gerecht, die nicht nur als gesund, sondern auch als nachhaltig gelten. D
