Overview: It gives me great pleasure to offer this foreword to the present work of my admired friend and respected colleague Ota Weinberger. Apart from the essays of his which were published in our joint work An Institutional Theory of Law: New Approaches to Legal Positivism in 1986, relatively little of Wein­ berger‘s work is available in English. This is the more to be regretted, since his is work of particular interest to jurists of the English-speaking world both in view of its origins and in respect of its content As to its origins, Weinberger war reared as a student of the Pure Theory of

Overview: Provides a concise introduction to linear and integer programming, appropriate for undergraduates, graduates, a short course or book camp, or self-learning;.Targets not only computer scientists and enThis textbook provides concise coverage of the basics of linear and integer programming which, with megatrends toward optimization, machine learning, big data, etc., are becoming fundamental toolkits for data and information science and technology. The authors’ approach is accessible to students from almost all fields of engineering, including operations research, statistics, machine lea

Overview: This volume contains the proceedings of two Russianconferences on logicprogramming, held in 1990 in Irkutskand in 1991 in St. Petersburg. The aim of the conferenceswas to bring together researchers from the Russian and theinternational logic programming communities. Topics coveredin thevolume include: logic programming, automated theoremproving, non-monotonic reasoning, applications ofmathematical logic to computer science, deductivedatabases,implementation of declarative concepts, and programminginnon-classical logics.This is the first volume to represent activity in the fieldof log

Overview: Die En Lwiddung der sozialistischen Produktion wird vor allem durch die Steigerung der Arbeilsproduktivitiit und die Erhöhung der Wirtschaftlichkeit bestimmt. Sie erfordert eine ständige Verbesserung und Vervollkommnung der Leitttngsmetlwden. Ükonomische Entscheidungen und technisch-wirtschaftliche Analysen können sich künftig bei den immer komplizierter werdenden Beziehungen zwischen den Produzenten und den Verbrauchern beziehungsweise den Lieferbetrieben und den Abnehmern nicht mehr lediglich auf die bisher gebräuchlichen, relativ wenig genauen Methoden stützen. Man kann nicht mehr

Overview: Neurophysiologists are often accused by colleagues in the physical sci­ ences of designing experiments without any underlying hypothesis. This impression is attributable to the ease of getting lost in the ever-increasing sea of professional publications which do not state explicitly the ultimate goal of the research. On the other hand, many of the explicit models for brain function in the past were so far removed from experimental reality that they had very little impact on further research. It seems that one needs much intimate experience with the real nerv-. ous system before a rea

Overview: Labelled deduction is an approach to providing frameworks forpresenting and using different logics in a uniform and natural way byenriching the language of a logic with additional information of asemantic proof-theoretical nature. .Labelled deduction systems often possess attractive properties, suchas modularity in the way that families of related logics arepresented, parameterised proofs of metatheoretic properties, and easeof mechanisability. It is thus not surprising that labelled deductionhas been applied to problems in computer science, AI, mathematicallogic, cognitive science,

Overview: One of the first works to focus on responsible leadership in the contemporary Asian Century context.Uses a social innovation model to explain how cultural factors can impact and shape responsible lead.The book is one of the first to focus on responsible leadership in the contemporary Asian century context. It adopts a unique context driven social innovation based responsible leadership approach to explain how context can impact and shape the theory and practice of responsible leadership. This unique work will strongly appeal to a broad spectrum of researchers and scholars across disc

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. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-662-39317-8978-3-662-40357-0

Overview: Presents geographical and literary journeys that challenge the limits of national or cultural identities.Contributes to understanding Easts/Wests interactions, notably between Latin America and Asia.D.This volume presents geographical journeys that challenge the limits of national or cultural identities, as well as journeys traversed by stories of exile and forced displacement, which become pilgrimages towards themselves, defying, in this process, both the limits of their own identities and the borders between the self and the other...The volume is divided into three parts. The first

It moves ‘beyond the Bund’, presenting instead the history of material culture, the everyday life of the residents of the treaty ports beyond the symbology of Shanghai‘s waterfront.

Overview: Latin America has an enormous environmental and ecological forest heterogeneity, a high potential for the dendrosciences.There is a lack of dendroecological studies on Neotropical, semi-arid and AndeaLatin America is a megadiverse territory hosting several hotspots of plant diversity and many types of forest biomes, ecosystems and climate types, from tropical rainforest to semi-arid woodlands. This combination of diverse forests and climates generates multiple responses to ecological changes affecting the structure and functioning of forest ecosystems. Recently, there have been major

Overview: Introduces the use of lattice reduction in MIMO receiver design.Examines implementation of MIMO hardware and lattice reduction techniques.Investigates LR-based MIMO iterative receiver from a stochastiMultiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems can increase the spectral efficiency in wireless communications. However, the interference becomes the major drawback that leads to high computational complexity at both transmitter and receiver. In particular, the complexity of MIMO receivers can be prohibitively high. As an efficient mathematical tool to devise low complexity approaches tha

Overview: In the working world, the weal and woe of the largely defenseless individual is vested in the hands of the collective powers. The trust placed in these powers stands in stark contrast to the widespread distrust of the democratic constitutional state. While legal protection vis-a-vis the state has been extended in a very so­ phisticated and flexible manner, often to an extreme degree, the question of how the employee and the employer can be protected against breaches of duty on the part of the works council (Betriebsrat) under the German industrial govemance laws has yet to be resolve

In addition to considering the problems of biomedical cell diagnostics, and modeling the scattering of laser irradiation of blood cells for biological structures (dermis, epidermis, vascular plexus), it presents an analytic theory based on solving t

Overview: Richly grounded in ethnographic data, it provides fundamental information on the identities and experiences of Asian American high school girls, an under-researched population.Adopts an interdisciplinThis book provides a complex and intricate portrayal of Asian American high school girls – which has been an under-researched population – as cultural meditators, diasporic agents, and community builders who negotiate displacement and attachment in challenging worlds of the in-between. Based on two years of ethnographic fieldwork, Tomoko Tokunaga presents a portrait of the girls’ hardshi

Overview: Written by experts, Gives a modern approach, Comprehensive in ScopeThis book explains and demonstrates how indigenous communities – built on traditional knowledge, culture and language – can be extended and strengthened by (1) the new, integrated methodology of Lifelong Action Learning (LAL), and (2) new approaches to learning and development as exemplified by the system of GULL (Global University for Lifelong Learning). The GULL system harnesses the potential of people to bring about positive change together, characterized by self-reliance, financial independence, and cascading lear
