Overview: Internationalisierung ist inzwischen nicht mehr eine Domäne von Großunternehmen, sondern veränderte weltwirtschaftliche Rahmenbedingungen eröffnen gerade auch für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen Erfolg versprechende Perspektiven im Auslandsgeschäft. ..Radka Hodicová geht der Frage nach, wie die Besitzer von KMU bei der Suche nach einem ausländischen Kooperationspartner vorgehen und welche Faktoren die Überlegungen und Entscheidungen dieser Unternehmer beeinflussen. Sie greift die These auf, dass der Persönlichkeit des Unternehmers dabei eine zentrale Rolle zukommt und dass Un

Overview: Embedded systems are characterized by the presence ofprocessors running application-specific software. Recent years haveseen a large growth of such systems, and this trend is projected tocontinue with the growth of systems on a chip. Many of these systemshave strict performance and cost requirements. To design thesesystems, sophisticated timing analysis tools are needed to accuratelydetermine the extreme case (best case and worst case) performance ofthe software components. .Existing techniques for this analysis have one or more of thefollowing limitations: . .they cannot modelcompli

Overview: Personalcomputer (PC) werden immer häufiger als Arbeitsplatzcomputer auch in technischen Bereichen eingesetzt. Ihre Verwendung in Labor, Versuchs- und Prüffeld stößt jedoch auf Schwierigkeiten oder führt gar zu Fehlschlägen, weil Möglichkeiten und Grenzen dieser Geräte falsch eingeschätzt werden, weil die Anpassung an den technischen Prozeß unzureichend ist oder die Programmierung des Rechners unzweckmäßig. Hier setzt das Buch an, vermittelt Grundlagen, zeigt Wege und Beispiele auf, wie bislang von Hand nur unvollständig oder mühsam zu bewältigende Meßaufgaben mit Hilfe eines PC erfo

Overview: This comprehensive treatise on the reticuloendothelial system is a project jointly shared by individual members of the Reticuloendothelial (RE) Society and bio­ medical scientists in general who are interested in the intricate system of cells and molecular moieties derived from those cells which constitute the RES. It may now be more fashionable in some quarters to consider these cells as part of what is called the mononuclear phagocytic system or the lymphoreticular sys­ tem. Nevertheless, because of historical developments and current interest in the subject by investigators from m

Overview: Determinants of Procurment Performance in Tenders.Alexander Rhode investigates performance-oriented measures of Contracting Authorities in public tenders conducted within the EU. He finds that Contracting Authorities can improve their performance and attract more suppliers by publishing (as precise as possible) starting prices in the beginning of a tender. First, he reports that compared with private-sector negotiations, starting prices do not create entry barriers in public procurement. Second, he finds that increased numerical precision of starting prices is linearly correlated wit
