Overview: .From the reviews.: "A good textbook can improve a lecture course enormously, especially when the material of the lecture includes many technical details. Van Dalen‘s book, the success and popularity of which may be suspected from this steady interest in it, contains a thorough introduction to elementary classical logic in a relaxed way, suitable for mathematics students who just want to get to know logic. The presentation always points out the connections of logic to other parts of mathematics. The reader immediately see the logic is "just another branch of mathematics" and not some

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen.

Overview: Vocabulary richness, including lexical diversity and use of rare words, has an important role in assessing proficiency, diagnosing progress and testing theory in the study of language development. This book reviews different methods for quantifying how vocabulary is deployed in spontaneous speech and writing, before introducing an alternative approach which can assess overall lexical diversity, measure morphology development and compare the development of different word classes. The new approach is illustrated by its application to first and second language learners.978-1-4039-0232-0

Overview: Includes supplementary material: In August 1999, the Twelfth Workshop on Languages and Compilers for P- allel Computing (LCPC) was hosted by the Hierarchical Tiling Research group from the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the University of California San Diego (UCSD). The workshop is an annual international forum for leading research groups to present their current research activities and the latest results.

Overview: Charles S. Sahagian Chief, Electromagnetic Materials Technology Branch Deputy for Electronic Technology Hanscom AFB, MA 01731 I t should not be surprising that an event as significant as the discovery of the laser has had some con­ comitant impact on other areas of science and technology, but the extent of the impact was grossly unpredicted. Upon perusal of this bibliography, devoted to the subject of laser window and mirror materials, it becomes very apparent that the effect of the laser on materials R&D has been enormous. Several hundred papers and reports, representing millions of

Overview: Ideen, Strategien und Techniken zur Lösung mathematischer Übungsaufgaben für Studienbeginner.Zur Bewältigung auftretender Schwierigkeiten von Studierenden in der ersten Phase des Studiums.Die Neuaufla.Die Bewältigung des Grundstudiums Mathematik entscheidet sich größtenteils am erfolgreichen Lösen der gestellten Übungsaufgaben.

Overview: Der Anhang 5 dient zur Vertiefung des Studiums der Sobolev-Räume. Viele der während der Vorlesung gestellten Übungen sind mit Lösungen in das Buch aufgenommen worden, andere als Übungen hinzugenommene Aussagen sind als Ergänzung zum Grundstoff gedacht. Ich glaube daher, daß sich dieses Buch als Grundlage und ebenso als Begleitlektüre zu Vorlesungen über lineare Funktion­ alanalysis eignet, aber auch als Ergänzungsliteratur zu ~deren Vorlesungen. Besonders zu danken habe ich Eberhard Bänsch und Jürgen Dennert, die durch unzählige Hinweise und Verbesserungsvorschläge zur endgültigen Ve

Overview: Zur Sicherstellung des Werterhalts von Immobilien werden zunehmend nachhaltige Aspekte im Planungsprozess berücksichtigt. Dies erfordert bereits in der Phase der Projektentwicklung eine ganzheitliche Betrachtung sowohl der zur Errichtung und zum Betrieb eines Gebäudes entstehenden Aufwände bestehend aus Errichtungs- und Folgekosten (=Lebenszykluskosten) als auch der in der Betriebsphase zu erwartenden Erträge. Durch die Gegenüberstellung der Aufwände zu den Erträgen ergibt sich die Lebenszyklusrendite (LZR) als Faktor zur Prognose der Rentabilität einer Investition. Das Ziel dieser A
