Overview: Diese Mediation ist besonders im wirtschaftlichen Kontext nützlichDas Konzept der Mediation mit Stellvertretung wird mittels theoretischer Inputs, praktischer Übungen und Fallbeispielen vorgestellt. Oft wünschen sich Konfliktbeteiligte eine direkte gemeinsame Konfliktregelung, das ist aber nicht immer möglich. Die stellvertretende Rollenübernahme der abwesenden Partei durch eine/einen Mediator*in mittels der repräsentierenden Wahrnehmung eröffnet hier neue Möglichkeiten, die weit über das Feld der Mediation hinausgehen.978-3-658-37833-2978-3-658-37834-9Series ISSN 2197-6708 Series E-

Overview: This book shows that the executive branch of government has added a supranational level, namely the European Commission, that increasingly seems to operate independently from national governments. Case studies illuminate how a genuine Union administration might evolve.978-1-349-54647-3978-0-230-50222-2Series ISSN 2662-5873 Series E-ISSN 2662-5881

Overview: On September 10-13, 1990, the first international meeting on Microsystem Technologies takes place at the Berlin International Congress Center. Most of the traditional congresses deal with themes that become more and more specific, and only a small part of the scientific world is reflected. The Micro System Technologies is attempting to take the opposite direction: During the last two decades the development of microelectronics was characterized by a tremendous increase of complexity of integrated circuits. At the same time the fields of microoptics and micromechanics have been develo

Overview: Prostate cancer remains the most common malignant tumor in elderly men. The National Cancer Institute estimated 210,000 new cases of prostate cancer in 1997. There is, however, no means of documenting the true incidence of prostate cancer because of the difficulty in detecting all cases. Even using yearly rectal exams, PSA determinations, and ultrasound-guided prostate biopsies, many cases are missed. Suffice it to say that prostate cancer is a widely occurring disease in men and early detection and treatment are extremely important. When I trained in Urology under Dr. Reed Nesbit at

Overview: Written by experts in their respective fields.Comprehensive overview of medical therapy.Focus on individual medicationsMedical Therapy of Ulcerative Colitis will serve as an invaluable resource for individual physicians use who treat patients with ulcerative colitis. The text presents a comprehensive overview of medical therapy for management of specific clinical scenarios and also a focus on the individual medications used to treat patients with ulcerative colitis. The book will be evidence based and focus on simplifying the current treatment to make it easy to understand. The chapt

Overview: The real-world data, though massive, is largely unstructured, in the form of natural-language text. It is challenging but highly desirable to mine structures from massive text data, without extensive human annotation and labeling. In this book, we investigate the principles and methodologies of mining structures of factual knowledge (e.g., entities and their relationships) from massive, unstructured text corpora. Departing from many existing structure extraction methods that have heavy reliance on human annotated data for model training, our effort-light approach leverages human-cura

Overview: .Perturbation theory, one of the most intriguing and essential topics in mathematics, and its applications to the natural and engineering sciences is the main focus of this workbook. In a systematic introductory manner, this unique book deliniates boundary layer theory for ordinary and partial differential equations, multi-timescale phenomena for nonlinear oscillations, diffusion and nonlinear wave equations. The book provides analysis of simple examples in the context of the general theory, as well as a final discussion of the more advanced problems. Precise estimates and excursions

Overview: Schädigungsmechanismen und -evolution in Luft und AbgaskondensatUnter Betriebsbedingungen werden gelötete Bauteile statischen und zyklischen Beanspruchungen in aggressiven Abgaskondensaten ausgesetzt, sodass das Korrosionsermüdungsverhalten der Lötverbindungen für den zuverlässigen Betrieb entscheidend ist. Anke Schmiedt-Kalenborn charakterisiert mikrostrukturbasiert das Ermüdungs- und Korrosionsermüdungsverhalten von Lötverbindungen des metastabilen Austenits X2CrNi18‑9 (1.4307) mit Nickelbasislot Ni 620 und Goldbasislot Au 827. Dabei werden das Ermüdungsverhalten der Lötverbindunge

Overview: The volume is based on the papers that were presented at the Interna­ tional Conference Model-Based Reasoning in Scientific Discovery (MBR‘98), held at the Collegio Ghislieri, University of Pavia, Pavia, Italy, in December 1998. The papers explore how scientific thinking uses models and explanatory reasoning to produce creative changes in theories and concepts. The study of diagnostic, visual, spatial, analogical, and temporal rea­ soning has demonstrated that there are many ways of performing intelligent and creative reasoning that cannot be described with the help only of tradi­ ti

Overview: Markteintritt und Marktaustritt sind die wichtigsten Bestimmungs­ gründe für die Existenz von Wettbewerbsmärkten. Die neoklassische Theorie fordert, daß im Gleichgewicht kein potentieller Eindringling den Eintritt und keine bestehende Firma den Austritt profitabel findet. Betrachten die Unternehmen die Marktpreise als gegeben -und das tun sie ja im Spielplan des neoklassischen Marktgleichgewichts -, so bedeutet das für den Eintritt: Ein potentieller Eindringling bleibt draußen, wenn der Preis nicht höher als die minimalen Durchschnitts­ kosten ist. Und für den Austritt: Eine bereits

Overview: Drawing on international and multidisciplinary expertise, this pioneering edited collection analyzing Islam in contemporary Ethiopia challenges the popular notion of a ‘Christian Ethiopia‘ imagined as the century-old, never colonized Abyssinia, isolated in the highlands and dominated by Orthodox Christianity.978-1-349-45931-5978-1-137-32209-8

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .This book describes recent advances in the morphodynamics of mixed sand and gravel Mediterranean coasts, and provides updates and new methods for their study and management. It assesses how the differences in the geomorphic setting, in comparison with traditional sandy beaches, result in distinctive physical processes governing the dynamics of these coasts. Further, on the basis of field measurements, theoretical analysis and numerical modeling carried out at two study sites in southern Spain over the last 15 years, the book studies, analyzes and com

Overview: A workshop on "MOLECULAR ASPECTS OF MYELOID STEM CELL DEVELOPMENT" was held at the Historic Inns in Annapolis, MD during April 30-May 3, with approximately 70 persons attend­ ing. The enormous success of this meeting was attributable to the recent outburst of information generated from two areas of study: transcriptional regulation of developmentally important myeloid genes and molecular dissection of chromosomal abnormalities in human myeloid leukemias. It was reassuring that studies of normal myelopoiesis and abnormal myelopoiesis, as observed in dys­ plasias and neoplasia, are rev
