Overview: The regions of the world which experience a mediterranean type climate, with a cool wet season alternating with a hot dry summer, contain some of the world‘s most attractive landscapes. In the Old World, the mediterranean landscapes became the cradle of civilization; other mediterranean areas of the world have attracted considerable populations for many centuries. These large human populations have exerted consid­ erable stress on the fragile ecosystems which developed in these sunny, but droughted, fire-prone land­ scapes. The mediterranean landscape has thus become one of the most

Overview: Includes supplementary material: This volume is based on papers accepted for the Second International Workshop on Multi-agent-based Simulation (MABS-2000)federated with the Fourth Int- national Conference on Multi Agent Systems (ICMAS-2000)held in Boston in July 2000. The purpose of MABS-2000 was to investigate and develop the synergy - tween software engineering for multi-agent systems and agent-based social s- ulation. The papers included in the MABS-2000 workshop were selected either because they explore how agent interaction can be used to build multi-agent s- tems or they o?er e

Overview: These notes give an account of recent work in harmonic analysis dealing with the analytical foundations of A. Weil‘s theory of metaplectic groups. It is shown that Weil‘s main theorem holds for a class of functions (a certain Segal algebra) larger than that of the Schwartz-Bruhat functions considered by Weil. The theorem is derived here from some general results about this class which seems to be a rather natural one in the context of Weil‘s theory. No previous knowledge of the latter is assumed, however, and the theory is developed here, step by step; Further, a complete discussion

Overview: How do companies ensure that manufacturing strategies are supportive of markets? This book addresses these issues and shows, in detail, the way to develop a manufacturing strategy, to test market/manufacturing fit and to cope with the dynamic nature of today‘s markets. The rationale and concepts which underpin these approaches are explained at length. These, in turn, are the results of a programme of consultancy and research work in a wide variety of companies facing the pressures and problems of today while seeking solutions and approaches to successfully meet the needs of tomorrow.

Overview: Reviews the interaction of nanoscale particles with biological matter.Discusses the biological response to nanoscale particles on a molecular and cellular level.Highlights the application of label-fre.This book reviews several aspects of the biological response to nanoscale particles on a molecular and cellular level. Nanoscale materials and nanoscale particles in particular have interesting properties and beneficial applications. While they thus have entered our daily lifes on many different levels (from electronics, over textiles, packaging or surface modifications, to biomedical a

Overview: .This volume provides a systematic mathematical exposition of the conceptual problems of nonequilibrium statistical physics, such as entropy production, irreversibility, and ordered phenomena. Markov chains, diffusion processes, and hyperbolic dynamical systems are used as mathematical models of physical systems. A measure-theoretic definition of entropy production rate and its formulae in various cases are given. It vanishes if and only if the stationary system is reversible and in equilibrium. Moreover, in the cases of Markov chains and diffusion processes on manifolds, it can be e
