Overview: Examines regional cooperation in the Indian Ocean in the post cold war era from a maritime perspective.Applies the theoretical framework of international regimes in the context of the regime for oceanIt is a privilege to introduce the reader to this book, as I believe that it will make a signi?cant contribution to, given the dif?culties in the knowledge of the Indian Ocean, developing cooperation in the Indian Ocean region. There have been numerous failed efforts at regional cooperation in different fora in the Indian Ocean. As a result of the land-based orientation of the people in

Overview: Focuses on hot topics from interactive knowledge discovery and data mining in biomedical informatics.Each paper describes the state-of-the-art and focuses on open problems and future challenges in ord.One of the grand challenges in our digital world are the large, complex and often weakly structured data sets, and massive amounts of unstructured information. This “big data” challenge is most evident in biomedical informatics: the trend towards precision medicine has resulted in an explosion in the amount of generated biomedical data sets. Despite the fact that human experts are very

Overview: Investitionen zählen zu den wichtigsten unternehmerischen Entscheidungen und sind seit langem Gegenstand der betriebswirtschaftlichen Forschung. Deren Fokus ist allerdings auf die Investitionsplanung gerichtet. Die Investitionskontrolle findet dagegen vergleichsweise wenig Beachtung...Stefan Linder entwirft Grundzüge einer Theorie der Investitionskontrolle. Auf der Basis eines psychologisch-verhaltensorientierten Menschenmodells leitet er potenzielle direkte Wirkungen einer Kontrolle auf den Kontrollierten und den Kontrolleur her. Anschließend werden die Einflüsse der Ausgestaltungsp

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This edited book offers diverse perspectives on the Palestinian refugee problem and the possible ways to facilitate its resolution. The book contains contributions of Israeli, Palestinian and other scholars, and its main goal is to initiate an informed dialogue that will bridge the “knowledge gap” between the different camps. The book is the cul- nation of a joint effort to assist people to realize how people on the other side envision the problem and the possible ways to resolve it, and to gain a comparative perspective on refugee problems and their

Overview: Neue Wege der politischen Bildung!Um die Zustimmung der Bürger zur Marktwirtschaft, zu Wirtschafts- und Sozialreformen und die Eigenverantwortung der Individuen zu erhöhen, vergrößern die Bundesländer zunehmend den Anteil des Wirtschaftsunterrichts an der politischen Bildung. In Wissenschaft und Praxis ist heftig umstritten, ob die Wirtschaftsthemen im Rahmen des politischen Unterrichts oder besser in einem eigenständigen Fach behandelt werden sollen. Kann die ökonomische Bildung überhaupt oder muss sie sogar in diepolitische Bildung integriert werden? Können die LehrerInnen überhaup

Overview: Presents a practical framework for analysing the economic contribution of the informal sector.Provides insight into the economic drivers of migration from rural to urban areas.Highlights the important.This book bridges the gap between theoretical and empirical understandings of the informal sector to provide insight into the role of the informal sector within the development process. By analysing three economic sectors, it sets out a framework for analysing urbanisation, rural-urban migration, agriculture- industry relationship, income inequality, structural change, employment, and o

Overview: Introduction to celestial navigation as a backup for digital technology.Written by an experienced lecturer.Covers the detailed theory of celestial navigation.This book focuses on Coastal and Ocean Navigation with an emphasis on celestial navigation techniques as a ‘back up’ in the event digital technologies fail.It deals with the main themes and principles of celestial navigation (including time).It covers the syllabus for deck officers working towards the Officer of the Watch (OOW) certificate of competence (COC) awarded by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA), and for Royal Nav

Overview: Since the appearance of Kobayashi‘s book, there have been several re­ sults at the basic level of hyperbolic spaces, for instance Brody‘s theorem, and results of Green, Kiernan, Kobayashi, Noguchi, etc. which make it worthwhile to have a systematic exposition. Although of necessity I re­ produce some theorems from Kobayashi, I take a different direction, with different applications in mind, so the present book does not super­ sede Kobayashi‘s. My interest in these matters stems from their relations with diophan­ tine geometry. Indeed, if X is a projective variety over the complex num

Overview: .This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Next Generation Wired/Wireless Networking, NEW2AN 2023, and the 16th Conference on Internet of Things and Smart Spaces, ruSMART 2023, held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, in December 21–22, 2023...The 67 full papers included in the joint proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 258 submissions. They present a unique cross-disciplinary mixture of telecommunications-related research and science, various aspects of next generation data networks, while special attention is given to advanc

The focus of the volume is on the design and optimization of socio-technical systems and their performance in defence contexts. Conceptual and methodological considerations for the development of such systems and criteria likely to be useful in their evaluation are discussed

Overview: Is the first book on identity-tourism consumption interaction.Provides multidisciplinary perspective on tourism, including identity and consumption process.Gives detailed discussion on the development.This book explores how identity plays a pivotal role in tourism consumption. Almost all tourism-related consumption studies underestimate or refer inadequately to identity‘s relationship with tourism consumption. As identity phenomenon is considerably a new subject in the tourism literature, this book examines its relationship with the consumption theory. It is of interest to readers cu

Overview: Discusses comprehensive stability properties of impulsive systems with delays, including Lyapunov stability, etc.Investigates the bilateral effects in terms of time-dependent and state-dependent delay.This book systematically presents the most recent progress in stability and control of impulsive systems with delays. Impulsive systems have recently attracted continued high research interests because they provide a natural framework for mathematical modeling of many real-world processes. It focuses not only on impulsive delayed systems, but also impulsive systems with delayed impulses

Overview: Questions prevalent dichotomies that divide discussion within the field.Shows the use of methods through case studies instead of offering only a meta-discussion.Presents no less than 65 exemplars of s.This handbook focuses on the often neglected dimension of interpretation in educational research. It argues that all educational research is in some sense ‘interpretive’, and that understanding this issue belies some usual dualisms of thought and practice, such as the sharp dichotomy between ‘qualitative’ and ‘quantitative’ research. Interpretation extends from the very framing of the r
