Overview: "The old order changeth, yielding place to new. " When Tennyson wrote this, he was unfamiliar with the pace of modem science else he would have said the new is displaced by the newer. When Gilbert and I gathered the papers for the first edition of this overview of metamorphosis, we aimed to provide a broad basis upon which the experimental analysis of the developmental changes called metamorphosis could proceed. We were both aware then that with the new techniques of biochemistry and with the revolutionary breakthrough to the nature of the gene, countless new possibilities were being

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.978-3-662-42122-2978-3-662-42389-9

Overview: Models in system design follow the general tendency inelectronics in terms of size, complexity and difficulty ofmaintenance. While a model should be a manageable representation of asystem, this increasing complexity sometimes forces current CAD-tooldesigners and model writers to apply modeling techniques to the modelitself. Model writers are interested in instrumenting their model, soas to extract critical information before the model is complete. CADtools designers use internal representations of the design at variousstages. The complexity has also led CAD-tool developers to develop
