Overview: Critical review of the state of art of every aspect of embodied intelligence in biological systems and artifact / robotic systems.Offers a markedly new perspective to readers for understanding embodie.Morpho-functional Machines are a set of tools for investigating the design of embodied intelligence in autonomous bio-artifact systems. The focus in Morpho-functional Machines is on the balance of morphology, materials, and control; intelligent behavior emerges from the interaction of an autonomous system with a real-world environment. How, then, should body morphology, body materials,

Overview: This fairly self-contained work embraces a broad range of topics in analysis at the graduate level, requiring only a sound knowledge of calculus and the functions of one variable.Replete with beautifuThis volume! aims at introducing some basic ideas for studying approxima­ tion processes and, more generally, discrete processes. The study of discrete processes, which has grown together with the study of infinitesimal calcu­ lus, has become more and more relevant with the use of computers. The volume is suitably divided in two parts. In the first part we illustrate the numerical system

Overview: Flexible Formen der Zusammenarbeit werden vor dem Hintergrund vernetzter Unternehmenstätigkeiten und Globalisierungsstrategien zunehmend Realität. Hierzu gehören virtuelle Teams, die mittels moderner Telemedien unabhängig von Zeit und Ort eng zusammenarbeiten. Doch wo die räumlich nahe Zusammenarbeit durch die medial vermittelte Zusammenarbeit ersetzt wird, stehen breit praktizierte und oft wenig hinterfragte Kommunikations- und Interaktionsformen auf dem Prüfstand...Josephine Hofmann entwickelt einen Bezugsrahmen, anhand dessen sie aufzeigt, welche Effekte sich durch die medialen Ko

It comprises seven contemporary relevant chapters. In chapter 1, a review of Bacteria Foraging Optimization (BFO) techniques for both single and multiple criterions problem is presented. A survey on swarm intelligence for multiple and many objectives optimization is presented in chapter 2 along wi

Overview: 4 videos with Extra Source Materials.Unique volume features a variety of perspectives from the greater mathematics community.Chapter online first production.The title of this book,  .Math in the Time of Corona,. has been drawn from the highly acclaimed novel by Gabriel García Márquez,  .Love in the Time of Cholera. .The volume editor, Alice Wonders, holds a fictitious name that  represents the mathematics publishing group at Springer Nature. Undeterred by disasters, so many mathematical and scientific discoveries have been made during times of duress or confinement. Unlike most any o

Overview: Challenges received wisdom which privileges economic impact over ‘soft data’ about community experience and engagement, and in doing so broadens the discussion beyond fiscal markers of impact.DemonstrThis book investigates the relationship developed between the researcher/evaluator and the commissioning arts and cultural producer in providing an opportunity to rethink the traditional process of reporting back on value and impact through the singular entity of funds acquittal.  Using three commissioned evaluations as examples, the discussion outlines the two positions most often adopt

Overview: Provides details in modern techniques in surface properties of lipid membranes.Correlates several aspects of membrane studies in relation to water properties that are scattered in the current literatu.This book is about the importance of water in determining the structure, stability and responsive behavior of biological membranes. Water confers to lipid membranes unique features in terms of surface and mechanical properties. The analysis of the hydration forces, plasticiser effects, controlled hydration, formation of microdomains of confined water suggests that water is an active con

Overview: Provides academics with a road map to manage large and diverse projects.Contains interviews with project managers and industry partners.Offers handy tips and hints in breakout boxes so that readers ca.This book is an essential resource for academics managing a large and complex research project. It provides important practical insights into the processes that inform such research projects and delivers insights into the delicate balance between industry, stakeholder and academic needs. It gives practical advice about developing relationships with diverse partners and colleagues and ma

Overview: .Memory Issues in Embedded Systems-On-Chip: Optimizationsand. .Explorations. is designed for different groups in theembedded systems-on-chip arena. .First, it is designed for researchers and graduate students who wishto understand the research issues involved in memory systemoptimization and exploration for embedded systems-on-chip. .Second, it is intended for designers of embedded systems who aremigrating from a traditional micro-controllers centered, board-baseddesign methodology to newer design methodologies using IP blocks forprocessor-core-based embedded systems-on-chip. .Also,

Overview: Wie wir Menschen die Maschine Auto lenkenDie Interaktion von Mensch und Maschine sowie die damit entstehenden Probleme stehen im Mittelpunkt des Buches. Lehrbuchartig und mit manchem vereinfachenden Blick in die Vergangenheit werden die sonst oft komplizierten Zusammenhänge verständlich erklärt. Die veränderten Fahrzeugeigenschaften durch die heutigen Eingriffe in die Technik wie Aktivlenkung, Hybridantrieb, geregelte Federung, Assistenzsysteme werden untersucht. Ein besonderes Kapitel befasst sich mit der Bedeutung der Produktentwicklung für den Unternehmenserfolg. Dem Aspekt der sa

Overview: Indispensable for continuous education and advanced training.All editors with international reputation and contributing authors with great expertise in their topic.Well-structured text and design, qui..Although the treatment of retinal diseases remains one of the most challenging fields in ophthalmology, the standard of knowledge has improved substantially over the past few years. The insight into basic mechanisms of disease has been expanded and novel diagnostic and therapeutic strategies have been developed, bridging the gap between laboratory and clinical science. Internationally

Overview: Over the last dozen years there has been a great development in the study of matter on the micro-scale by means of the light microscope, which has coincided with the rapid growth of auto­ mation and the use of computers. The manufacturers have responded to this challenge, and there is now available a large choice of modules for use with the microscope, both on the biological and non-biological side. This book is on microscope photometry. Photometry on the macro-scale can be applied to features of not less than about one millimetre in size. Below this lies the realm of microscope phot

Overview: Addresses emerging issues in ubiquitous environments.Demonstrates how to design architectures able to support context-dependent systems.Highlights how interactive applications can benefit from multi-dUbiquitous environments are important because they allow users to move about freely and continue the interaction with the available applications through a variety of interactive devices (including cell phones, PDA‘s, desktop computers, digital television sets, and intelligent watches).A frustrating limitation is that people have to start their session over again from the beginning at eac

Overview: Der Promotion-Einsatz gewinnt zunehmend an Bedeutung für den Erfolg im Produktmanagement. Viele Maßnahmen werden jedoch durch unmittelbare Reaktionen konkurrierender Hersteller beantwortet, so dass die modellgestützte Analyse dieser Wettbewerbsreaktionen aus Sicht der Praxis als eine der vordringlichen Herausforderungen an die Wissenschaft erscheint...Ralf Wagner untersucht die Bedingungen multipler Wettbewerbsreaktionen durch die Kombination unterschiedlicher Maßnahmen im Sinne eines Promotion-Mix. Es werden statistische Tests zur Analyse der Eigenschaften von Prozessen des simultan
