Overview: Includes supplementary material: We are rapidly heading towards a world in which the computing infrastructure will contain billions of devices, which will interact with other computing/communications devices that are carried or worn by users as they go through their daily routines. Such devices will provide data access to mobile users as they move within buildings, cities, or across the globe. This new infrastructure presents tremendous challenges for data management technology, including: huge scale; variable and intermittent connectivity; location and context-aware applications; ba

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Der Erkenntnisfortschritt der Molekularbiologie und der molekularen Genetik hat zu einem tiefgreifenden Wandel diagnostischer und therapeutischer Möglichkeiten in der Medizin geführt und damit die theoretischen und methodischen Grundlagen für eine Molekulare Medizin gelegt. Diagnostische Möglichkeiten werden durch die Bestimmbarkeit genetischer Veränderungen beachtlich erweitert, neue Zielstrukturen für therapeutische Interventionen zugänglich. In monographischen Abhandlungen werden in diesem ersten Band die allgemeinen Grundlagen der Molekularen Medi

Overview: Only introduction to Lie group theory aimed at the undergraduate.Discusses applications in mathematics and physics.Provides a self-contained introduction to Lie groups and serves as a foundation for aAimed at advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, this book provides a first taste of the theory of Lie groups as an appetiser for a more substantial further course. Lie theoretic ideas lie at the heart of much of standard undergraduate linear algebra and exposure to them can inform or motivate the study of the latter..The main focus is on matrix groups, i.e., closed subgr

Overview: Design Research on reflecting statistical measures.In most countries, only very limited time resources are available for statistics education within mathematics education. Thus, statistics education research needs to develop teaching-learning arrangements that are compact and applicable to classrooms. Christian Büscher designs and investigates a compact teaching-learning arrangement which aims at mathematical and reflective knowledge about statistics. Central results include the specification of the learning content of statistical measures, an empirical reconstruction of students’ le

Overview: Explains the self-assembly process in thin films in a simple, concise, and comprehensive way.Guides the reader in a step-by-step fashion.Explores the phenomenon of order-disorder transitions.This book introduces the fascinating world of self-assembly in mesoporous ordered silica films. Beginning from a single droplet, it guides the reader, in a step-by-step learning process, how to obtain and control ordered porous mesophases in thin films by varying only the precursor chemistry and the process. It explains, in great detail, how order control is achieved through chemical design and p

Overview: The volume focuses on the ecological functioning of rivers,which has received less attention than functioning of lakes andreservoirs. The selected papers cover a large range of topics relatingto aquatic communities, eutrophication, nutrient dynamics and organicpollution, erosion and sediment transport, and fate of micropollutantsat the basin scale. Integrated approaches developed in order to studythe ecological functioning of fluvial systems perturbed by humanactivity are presented. This functioning is analysed from the point ofview of fundamental research, but insights into system m

Overview: Despite reductions in the level of research activity in most fields which, for reasons of economic decline, have taken place in the U.S. during the last year or two, world progress in the fundamental aspects has continued actively. An important aspect of such recent work has been the use of nonaqueous solvents in studies on the constitution of the double-layer and electrochemical reactions. Interpretation of the behavior of electrode interfaces in such solvents demands more knowledge of the solvation properties of ions in nonaqueous media. Chapter 1 by Pad ova on "Ionic Solvation in

Overview: Covers all the major Office applications in a single book.Skips introductory material programmers already know so it can explore programming in more depth than competition.Examines in-depth each appli.By using the same back-end macro programming language, Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), Microsoft Office applications allow users to easily transfer their VBA programming skills from one Office product to another. A developer skilled at using VBA to program Access can quickly learn to program Word or Excel. Better still, VBA is a fairly complete subset of Visual Basic (VB). That mea

Overview: Individuelle Auswirkungen der Datenflut.Verarmung der sinnlichen Wahrnehmung.Vereinsamung infolge virtueller Kommunikation.Der Text widmet sich den Folgen einer sinnlich-sensorischen und spirituellen Verarmung samt Verlust an kommunikativer Kompetenz und Solidarität infolge einer digitalen Überflutung. Dennoch wäre es ebenso kontraproduktiv wie erfolglos, die allgegenwärtige Digitalisierung zu dämonisieren; sinnvoll wären indes präventiv-salutogenetische Maßnahmen sowie Regeln zum Schutz der menschlichen Natur, vor allem im Hinblick auf eine Überschreitung der Gehirn-Maschine-Grenze.
