Overview: .Model Based Fuzzy Control. uses a given conventional or fuzzy open loop model of the plant under control to derive the set of fuzzy rules for the fuzzy controller. Of central interest are the stability, performance, and robustness of the resulting closed loop system. The major objective of model based fuzzy control is to use the full range of linear and nonlinear design and analysis methods to design such fuzzy controllers with better stability, performance, and robustness properties than non-fuzzy controllers designed using the same techniques. This objective has already been achie

Overview: Discusses different techniques and new trends to manage and optimize production and services systems.Includes solutions for NP-hard problems that are common in production management.Editors are leadin.This book discusses the main techniques and newest trends to manage and optimize the production and service systems. The book begins by examining the three main levels of decision systems in production: the long term (strategic), the middle term (tactical) and short term (operational). It also considers online management as a new level (a sub level of the short term). As each level enco

The tensions arising between the legal systems of maritime and insolvency law, paired with conflicts o

Overview: Medical Parasitology is primarily intended to be an illustrated textbook which provides a review ofthe most important species ofparasite which occur in man; their areas ofdistribution, morphology and development, the typical disease symptoms resulting from infection, epidemiology and also methods of detection and indications for therapy. The main emphasis is on the protozoan and helmin­ thic diseases; medical entomology has only been covered in connection with the epidemiology of the diseases described here. Parasites sometimes occur exclusively in man (anthropoparasites) and sometim

Overview: It has been over 50 years since Hans Selye formulated his concept of stress. This came after the isolation of epinephrine and norepinephrine and after the sympathetic system was associated with Walter Cannon‘s "fight or flight" response. The intervening years have witnessed a number of dis­ coveries that have furthered our understanding of the mechanisms of the stress response. The isolation, identification and manufacture of gluco­ corticoids, the identification and synthesis of ACTH and vasopressin, and the demonstration of hypothalamic regulation of ACTH secretion were pivotal dis

Overview: Die Flexibilität im Unternehmen wird als zentrale Voraussetzung dafür angesehen, in einer unsicheren Unternehmensumwelt das Überleben des Unternehmens zu gewährleisten. Insbesondere die Flexibilität auf den Absatzmärkten ist hier von besonderer Bedeutung. Im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen umfassend untersuchten Erscheinungsformen der Flexibilität wurde die Marketingflexibilität allerdings bislang kaum betrachtet...Auf der Basis des ressourcentheoretischen Ansatzes identifiziert Jens Giere zwei zentrale Dimensionen der Marketingflexibilität. Er betrachtet die Erfolgswirkung vor dem Hinte

Overview: Locality is a fundamental restriction in nature. On the other hand, adaptive complex systems, life in particular, exhibit a sense of permanence and time­ lessness amidst relentless constant changes in surrounding environments that make the global properties of the physical world the most important problems in understanding their nature and structure. Thus, much of the differential and integral Calculus deals with the problem of passing from local information (as expressed, for example, by a differential equation, or the contour of a region) to global features of a system‘s behavior (

Overview: In the past twenty years, the Hp-BMO Theory on Rn has undergone a flourishing development, which should partly give the credit to the application of some martin­ gale idea and methods. It would be valuable to exhibit some examples concerning this point. As one of the key parts of Calder6n-Zygmund‘s real method which first appeared in the 50‘s, Calder6n-Zygmund Decomposition is exactly the so-called stopping time argument in nature which already existed in the Probability Theory early in the 30‘s, although such a close relationship between Calder6n-Zygmund De­ composition and the stop
