Overview: 1.1 Problem Statement and Research Question Active loan portfolio management is becoming more and more imp- tant. In the year 2004, European banks sold credits worth EUR 249 billion. Big deals were made by the German banks Hypo Real Estate (EUR 3.6 billion) and Dresdner Bank (EUR 1.2 billion). In addition, credit exchanges were established which made loans more liquid. For example, in October 2004 the German “Deutsche Kredit-B¨ orse” was established, which focuses on trading loans assigned to medium-size businesses. It is empirically shown that active loan portfolio management can 1

Overview: Integrates the neuronal organization with cognitive functionalities using a completely naturalistic topological model.Offers a structural template of cognitive functionalities congruent with the Darwi.This monograph is an extension of the earlier monographs dealing with the application of the new modified involuted manifold model. This monograph has two objectives. Firstly, it seeks to integrate neuronal organization with cognitive functionalities. Secondly, it tries to formalize a structural template of cognitive functionalities. It is based on the postulate that cognitive functiona

Overview: Die Praxis der organisatorischen Arbeit zeigt, daß kein Vorgang dem anderen gleicht; andererseits wissen wir, daß bestimmte Vorgehens­ weisen beim Organisieren erfolgversprechend sind. Dementsprechend gibt es eine umfangreiche Literatur über organisatorische Probleme, jedoch wenige grundlegenden Arbeiten. Mit diesem Buch wird nun versucht, eine zusammenfassende Darstel­ lung aller Organisationsprobleme und -Lösungsmöglichkeiten zu geben. Auf die Probleme komplexer großer Industrieunternehmen wird hier­ bei besonders eingegangen. H.]. Paul Hauf! Erlangen, Februar 1974 9 Einleitung Im

Overview: Only up-to-date treatment of xenobiotics in plants.Includes practical applications to real-life problems.Relates to food safety and bioremediationNatural and agro-ecosystems are frequently exposed to natural or synthetic substances, which, while they have no direct nutritional value or significance in metabolism, may negatively affect plant functioning. These, xenobiotics, may originate from both natural (fires, volcano eruptions, soil or rock erosion, biodegradation) and anthropogenic (air and soil pollution, herbicides) sources. And, while affected plants have only a limited number

Overview: .L‘objectif et l‘originalité de ce livre est de présenter les différents aspects et méthodes utilisés dans la résolution des problèmes d‘optimisation stochastique avec en vue des applications plus spécifiques à la finance: gestion de portefeuille, couverture d‘options, investissement optimal. .Nous avons inclus certains développements récents sur le sujet sans chercher a priori la plus grande généralité. Nous avons voulu une exposition graduelle des méthodes mathématiques en présentant d‘abord les idées intuitives puis en énonçant précisément les résultats avec des démonstrations com

Overview: Deregulation is a fairly new paradigm in the electric power industry. And just as in the case of other industries where it has been introduced, the goal of deregulation is to enhance competition and bring consumers new choices and economic benefits. The process has, obviously, necessitated reformulation of established models of power system operation and control activities. Similarly, issues such as system reliability, control, security and power quality in this new environment have come in for scrutiny and debate. In this book, we attempt to present a comprehensive overview of the d

Overview: Provides cutting-edge information on current practices and new developments.Includes clinical cases for engaging high-yield learning.Written by the most well respected world leaders in the field of on.Oncofertility is a specialty that bridges the disciplines of reproductive endocrinology and infertility and oncology, with the goal of expanding the reproductive options of cancer patients. Given fertility risks associated with specific cancer treatments, as well as the improved long-term survival made possible by these therapies, there has been growing interest in expanding reproductiv

Overview: The main concern of this book is the application of infinitemoment theoryto the problem of controllability of one-di-mensional vibrating systems(like strings and beams) andheating processes. Distributed as well asboundary controlis considered.In the case of vibrating systemstrigonometric moment pro-blems are to be investigated which is done on the basis ofan abstract moment theory in Hilbert spaces. Equivalently,alsothe theory of linear operator equations on Hilbert spa-ces ( partly with unbounded operators) is applied to theproblem of controllability and time-minimal controllability

Overview: Due to the introduction of molecular and cellular biology approaches, our understanding of ovarian physiology has reached a new level during the last few years. The present volume provides a new perspective on the ovary from molecular and cellular to whole organ levels, from non-mammalian and rodent to human levels and from paracrine, neuroendocrine and endocrine levels as well. These papers represent the proceedings of the Ninth Ovarian Workshop sponsored by Serono Symposia, USA, July 9-11, 1992 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.978-1-4613-8338-3978-1-4613-8336-9

Overview: Elizabethan English culture is saturated with tales and figures from Ovid s Metamorphoses. While most of these narratives interrogate metamorphosis and transformation, many tales - such as those of Philomela, Hecuba, or Orpheus - also highlight heightened states of emotion, especially in powerless or seemingly powerless characters. When these tales are translated and retold in the new cultural context of Renaissance England, a distinct politics of Ovidian emotion emerges. Through intertextual readings in diverse cultural contexts, Ovid and the Politics of Emotion in Elizabethan Engla
