Overview: Muster sind handlungsleitende Grundannahmen, die unternehmerische Aktivitäten maßgeblich prägen und beeinflussen. Über die Köpfe des Managements finden sie ihren Weg in die Geschäftsmodelle von Unternehmen und bestimmen das Schicksal von Firmen und ganzen Branchen. Aber was genau bewirken Muster und wie kann konstruktiv mit ihnen umgegangen werden?..Tobias Umbeck untersucht anhand von neun Fallbeispielen aus der Luftfahrtbranche, wie sich Muster im eigenen Geschäftsmodell gezielt analysieren, bewerten und sinnvoll brechen lassen. Es entsteht ein Framework, welches eingesetzt werden k

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Although primarily used today as one of the most prevalent illicit leisure drugs, the use of Cannabis sativa L., commonly referred to as marijuana, for medicinal purposes has been reported for more than 5000 years. Marijuana use has been shown to create numerous health problems, and, consequently, the expanding use beyond medical purposes into recreational use (abuse) resulted in control of the drug through international treaties. Much research has been carried out over the past few decades following the identification of the chemical structure of THC

Overview: 1. 1 The Area of Research In this thesis, we will investigate the ‘market-conform‘ pricing of newly issued contingent claims. A contingent claim is a derivative whose value at any settlement date is determined by the value of one or more other underlying assets, e. g. , forwards, futures, plain-vanilla or exotic options with European or American-style exercise features. Market-conform pricing means that prices of existing actively traded securities are taken as given, and then the set of equivalent martingale measures that are consistent with the initial prices of the traded securiti

Overview: Malignant tumors due to breast cancer and masses due to benign disease appear in mammograms with different shape characteristics: the former usually have rough, spiculated, or microlobulated contours, whereas the latter commonly have smooth, round, oval, or macrolobulated contours. Features that characterize shape roughness and complexity can assist in distinguishing between malignant tumors and benign masses. In spite of the established importance of shape factors in the analysis of breast tumors and masses, difficulties exist in obtaining accurate and artifact-free boundaries of th

Overview: Gives readers a framework of model-based FDI techniques, helping them to become familiar with the basic ideas and schemes in a systematic way.Design algorithms and mathematical and control engineeringGuaranteeing a high system performance over a wide operating range is an important issue surrounding the design of automatic control systems with successively increasing complexity.

This book introduces basic model-based FDI schemes, advanced analysis a

Overview: The author outlines the reasons why management risk must be examined within the perspective of each company‘s business challenges. He suggests there is a synergy between shareholder value and business ethics. He also underlines the importance of honesty, the risks associated with short-sighted management and over-centralisation, the benefits of innovative strategies and senior management‘s accountability for reliable financial reporting. The text is based on an extensive research project done by the author between 2000 and 2002 in the US, the UK, France, Italy and Switzerland.978-1-4
