Overview: Presents the latest management model followed by some of the top Chinese technology enterprises.Introduces an advanced model which may surpass the current Silicon Valley Model.Studies China as a locusIn this Springer Brief, the author introduces how Chinese firms are successfully using their own variants of the ‘Silicon Valley Approach‘ to management. The author begins the discussion by deliberating on the extent to which management models need to be re-invented. A fundamentally new approach is then introduced, which already exists and is proving itself in practice at some of Silicon

Overview: Die massenspektrometrischen Daten von 27 der insgesamt möglichen 66 Oktene werden angegeben. Die Spektren sind so verschieden, daß man damit zwischen den isomeren Oktenen unterscheiden kann. Es wird ein Ordnungs system beschrieben, das es erlaubt, die vorliegenden Daten auszuwerten mit dem Ziel, eventuelle Zusammenhänge zwischen Molekülstruktur und Massenspektrum zu finden. Das System ist durch eindeutige Vorschriften festgelegt, so daß es auch für eine maschinelle Auswertung geeignet ist. Die Ergebnisse werden in Form von Merksätzen formuliert. Die Merksätze gelten für die vorliegen

Overview: Includes the description of calcium signaling in different cell types.Provides appropriate descriptions for each channel involved in intracellular calcium dynamics.Provides realistic, up-to-date examp.This book discusses the ways in which mathematical, computational, and modelling methods can be used to help understand the dynamics of intracellular calcium. The concentration of free intracellular calcium is vital for controlling a wide range of cellular processes, and is thus of great physiological importance. However, because of the complex ways in which the calcium concentration va

Overview: Many individual aspects of the dynamics and assembly of biological membranes have been studied in great detail. Cell biological approaches, advanced genetics, biophysics and biochemistry have greatly contributed to an increase in our knowledge in this field.lt is obvious however, that the three major membrane constituents - lipids, proteins and carbohydrates- are studied, in most cases separately and that a coherent overview of the various aspects of membrane biogenesis is not readily available. The NATO Advanced Study Institute on "New Perspectives in the Dynamics of Assembly of Bio

Overview: Provides a consistent framework for dealing with credit and positioning risk.Includes practitioner examples and techniques for adjusting traditional risk measures.Applies Mean Field Theory to reduce t.Since the Global Financial Crisis,  the structure of financial markets has undergone a dramatic shift. Modern markets have been “zombified” by a combination of Central Bank policy, disintermediation of commercial banks through regulation, and the growth of passive products such as ETFs.  Increasingly, risk builds up beneath the surface, through a combination of excessive leverage and cr

Overview: No book available on this topic for graduate students who first come into the field.Presents a systematic treatment of the multi-photon interference phenomena and their applications in quantum informa.Multi-Photon Quantum Interference. covers the phenomena of quantum interference through the multi-photon effects of photon correlation. The author’s focus is on the temporal correlation among photons and how it influences the interference effect....Included is discussion of some of the well known multi-photon interference schemes, such as Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer and Franson Interf

Overview: Summarises the results of theoretical research on computer simulations of mushy steel deformations.Proposes mathematical models as well as experimental work in this field for a very high temperature r.This book addresses selected aspects of steel-deformation modelling, both at very high temperatures and under the conditions in which the liquid and the solid phases coexist. Steel-deformation modelling with its simultaneous solidification is particularly difficult due to its specificity and complexity. With regard to industrial applications and the development of new, integrated contin

Overview: Umfassender Überblick über alle Aspekte der Tätigkeit von Managern und Unternehmern.Betriebswirtschaftliches Grundlagenwissen für die erfolgreiche Karriere.Praxisorientiert ohne BallastDie vom heutigen Ingenieur erwartete Systemkompetenz beinhaltet neben technischen Aspekten auch die Faktoren Zeit, Kosten, Qualität und die optimale Gestaltung zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen. Diese Kenntnisse werden in der klassischen Ingenieurausbildung nicht oder nur unzureichend vermittelt.

Overview: Features chapters written by experts from the European Commission, FAO, USDA, and the World Bank as well as scholars from the European Union and the United States.Provides timely analysis of agricultuThis book examines the issue of price volatility in agricultural commodities markets and how this phenomenon has evolved in recent years. The factors underlying the price spike of 2007-08 appear to be global and macroeconomic in nature, including the rapid growth in demand by developing countries, the international financial crisis, and exchange rate movements. Some of these factors are

Overview: Provides the second instalment to Toporowski‘s fascinating intellectual biography of Michal Kalecki.Evaluates Kalecki‘s political position and thoughts on economic cycles.Details the reception of Kale.This volume of intellectual biography records the work of Michał Kalecki’s maturity: his work on monetary economics and the theory of profits; his work on the problems of socialism and developing countries; and the extension of his theory of capitalism to define his work in relation to Keynes and previous political economic principles. Kalecki had, by 1939, laid out the essential elemen

Overview: This open access book describes demography as an autonomous science, not just a branch of applied statistics.Provides a new view of demography, based on 21st century philosophy of science.Points the wLate in a career of more than sixty years, Thomas Burch, an internationally known social demographer, undertook a wide-ranging methodological critique of demography. This open access volume contains a selection of resulting papers, some previously unpublished, some published but not readily accessible. Rejecting the idea that demography is simply a branch of applied statistics, his work

Overview: Offers a new interpretation of the Employment Act of 1946.Takes an in-depth look at the development of economic policies from the New Deal through to the Great Society.Uses a laboristic approach to ex.This book offers a new interpretation of the Employment Act of 1946.  It argues that in addition to Keynesian economics, the idea of a living wage was also part of the background leading up to the Employment Act.  The Act mandated that the president prepare an Economic Report on the state of the economy and how to improve it, and the idea of a living wage was an essential issue in those

Overview: Posttraumatic stump formation and replantation of the severed limb are both reconstructive plastic operations which may lead to the improvement or destruction of a patient‘s lifestyle. For the primary attending surgeon, the decision whether to undertake such an operation depends on the patient‘s clinical condition, the operational circumstances, the psychological and social aspects and, last but not least, on the surgeon‘s own abilities. This monograph is designed as a synopsis of the great number of patho-physiological parameters and surgical and rehabilitational aspects which must

Overview: The papers in this book were submitted for the 1988 London International Chlorine Symposium.
