Overview: Ebenso wie seine Vorgänger liefert auch das 8. GI-Fachgespräch ein getreues Spiegelbild der Probleme, die sich in den jeweiligen Zeiträumen in den Rechenzentren ergeben haben. Zum Zeitpunkt des 8. Fachgesprächs bestimmen Themenkreise wie dezentrale Datenverarbeitung, ihre Beherrschbarkeit und ihre Grenzen, aber auch der Ausblick auf neue Techniken und Entwicklungstendenzen, Sicherheitsaspekte und Hochgeschwindigkeitsnetze die Diskussion. Die zunehmende Betrachtung der Rechenzentren unter Kosten-Nutzen-Gesichtspunkten führte zum Themenkreis "Kapazitätsplanung und -management". Traditi

Overview: The disjunctive cut principle of Balas and Jeroslow, and the related polyhedral annexation principle of Glover, provide new insights into cutting plane theory. This has resulted in its ability to not only subsume many known valid cuts but also improve upon them. Originally a set of notes were written for the purpose of putting together in a common terminology and framework significant results of Glover and others using a geometric approach, referred to in the literature as convexity cuts, and the algebraic approach of Balas and Jeroslow known as Disjunctive cuts. As it turned out sub

Overview: Offers current results through well-established methodology..Generalizes the finite linear groups of degree 3, yet remains broad in scope..Written by the world‘s leading expert in this area..Includes The theory of table algebras was introduced in 1991 by Z. Arad and H. Blau in order to treat, in a uniform way, products of conjugacy classes and irreducible characters of finite groups.Today, table algebra theory is a well-established branch of modern algebra with various applications, includingthe representation theory of finite groups, algebraic combinatorics and fusion rules algebras

Overview: Experiments showing a rapid and reversible change of color seem to be magic and are always fascinating. This process called photochromism, has a few real and many potential applications. Photochromic glasses that darken in the sunlight (protecting eyes from excessive light intensity) and bleach in dim light are today a part of everyday life. Organic Photochromic Compounds in plastic ophthalmic lenses, more comfortable to wear, are now competing with silver salts glasses, despite the longer lifetime of the inorganic system. This successful commercial application has given a new impetu

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Seated in a sun-lit corner of his 17th century Dutch house, his hand touching a celestial globe, Johannes Vermeer‘s "Astronomer" seems to pon­ der about the mysteries of the universe. We might make the trip to Paris and ask him, in the Louvre, what precisely is on his mind. Unfortunately, there will be no answer. But we do know what his mind was not on. It was not on the approaching deadlines for the proposals he would have to write for getting funds and telescope-time, not on the meeting of the observing programs committee, not on his refereeing duty
