Overview: Quarrying and all other branches of surface mining rather than diminishing in importance have become of more and more consequence economically, industrially and particularly with the depletion of high-grade deep-mined mineral reserves. Low-grade minerals require low cost extraction and this in many cases necessitates very expensive mechanized equipment with the cost of individual units running into millions of pounds in the case of large­ scale operations with high productivity. There has been, and there still is, a tendency for the smaller single quarries to be amalgamated into grou

Overview: Explains quality system standards in the food industry.Critically discusses and evaluates international norms (ISO 9001, HACCP, GSFS, IFS).Presents selected examples, such as chemical additives and crThis book explains the role of food-oriented (or ‘food-centric’) quality system standards in the modern food and beverage industry. It discusses food safety schemes based on the international norm ISO 9001 and the “Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points” approach, and also introduces the new Global Standard for Food Safety (GSFS) and the International Featured Standard (IFS, 7th ed.

Overview: A clear and authentic treatment.Written by a highly respected quantum physicist.Strange phenomena made comprehensible.Includes supplementary material: .Coherence, entanglement, and interference arise from quantum superposition, the most distinctive and puzzling feature of quantum physics. Silverman, whose extensive experimental and theoretical work has helped elucidate these processes, presents a clear and engaging discussion of the role of quantum superposition in diverse quantum phenomena such as the wavelike nature of particle propagation, indistinguishability of identical particl

Overview: Erfolgreiches E-LearningWas macht E-Learning erfolgreich? In der Qualitätsentwicklung im E-Learning ist es mittlerweile unstrittig, dass dem Lernenden, seinen Präferenzen und Anforderungen eine herausragende Stellung eingeräumt werden muss. In diesem Band wird erstmals ein empirisches Modell individueller Lernerpräferenzen vorgestellt. Es wird gezeigt, welche Faktoren für Lernende beim E-Learning von Bedeutung sind. Die Basis hierfür bilden Daten aus qualitativen Interviews und der bislang größten Onlinebefragung zum Thema, in der über 2000 Lernende zu ihren Präferenzen, Kompetenzen

Overview: Results of the International Conference on Underwater Environment, MOQESM’14. which took place at "Le Quartz" conference center in Brest, France, on 14 and 15 October 2014.Interesting for marine robot.This volume constitutes the results of the International Conference onUnderwater Environment, MOQESM’14, held at “Le Quartz” Conference Center in Brest,France, on October 14-15, 2014, within the framework of the 9thSea Tech Week, International Marine Science andTechnology Event. The objective of MOQESM‘14 was to bring together researchers fromboth academia and industry, interested in ma

Overview: It is now generally agreed that a deeper understanding of biological processes requires a multi-disciplinary approach employing the tools of biology, chemistry, and physics. Such understanding involves study of biomacromolecules and their functions, which includes how they interact, their reactions, and how information is transmitted between them. This volume is devoted to quantum mechanical simulation techniques, which have developed rapidly in recent years. It covers quantum mechanical calculations of large systems, molecular dynamics combining quantum and classical algorithms, qua

Overview: Gives an overview of the latest progress in the domain of quantum imaging which has been achieved during 3.5 years of research carried out by the leading specialists in the area within the Quantum Ima.Quantum Imaging is a newly born branch of quantum optics that investigates the ultimate performance limits of optical imaging allowed by the laws of quantum mechanics. Using the methods and techniques from quantum optics, quantum imaging addresses the questions of image formation, processing and detection with sensitivity and resolution exceeding the limits of classical imaging. This bo

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Building on classical queueing theory mainly dealing with single node queueing systems, networks of queues, or stochastic networks has been a field of intensive research over the last three decades. Whereas the first breakthrough in queueing network theory was initiated by problems and work in operations research, the second breakthrough, as well as subsequent major work in the area, was closely related to computer science, particularly to performance analysis of complex systems in computer and communication science..The text reports on recent researc

Overview: In the past decade, there has been a sudden and vigorous development in a number of research areas in mathematics and mathematical physics, such as theory of operator algebras, knot theory, theory of manifolds, infinite dimensional Lie algebras and quantum groups (as a new topics), etc. on the side of mathematics, quantum field theory and statistical mechanics on the side of mathematical physics. The new development is characterized by very strong relations and interactions between different research areas which were hitherto considered as remotely related. Focussing on these new dev

Overview: Die vorliegende Arbeit basiert auf der Erfahrung, daß Konsumenten in vielen Fällen zu einer vollständigen und zutreffenden Beurteilung von Produktqualitäten vor Kauf nicht kommen und die Kaufentscheidung so bei Qualitätsunsicherheit treffen. Entscheidungen bei Unsicherheit können sich als ,falsch‘ erweisen. Wird etwa für einen einzelnen Konsu­ menten die ursprünglich hohe Qualitätserwartung durch gemachte ungünstige Erfah­ rungen nach unten korrigiert, so ist ein Wiederkauf in der nächsten Periode weniger wahrscheinlich als im Fall einer bestätigten Qualitätserwartung oder gar im Fal

Overview: Das erste How-to-do Buch zur Qualitativen EvaluationAm Beispiel eines von den Autoren realisierten Evaluationsprojektes führt dieses Buch in die Planung und praktische Durchführung von qualitativer Evaluation ein. Anhand einer detaillierten Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung werden die Bestandteile eines Evaluationsprozesses von der Gegenstandsbestimmung, Erhebung und Codierung der Daten bis hin zur kategorienbasierten Auswertung und zur Verfassung des Berichts nachvollziehbar dargestellt. Die im Buch beschriebene computergestützte Vorgehensweise lässt sich auch bei knappen zeitlichen und

Overview: This book is addressed to one problem and to three audiences. The problem is the mathematical structure of modem physics: statistical physics, quantum mechanics, and quantum fields. The unity of mathemati­ cal structure for problems of diverse origin in physics should be no surprise. For classical physics it is provided, for example, by a common mathematical formalism based on the wave equation and Laplace‘s equation. The unity transcends mathematical structure and encompasses basic phenomena as well. Thus particle physicists, nuclear physicists, and con­ densed matter physicists hav

Overview: Provides many concrete instances of successful practices and programs which improve survivorship.Discusses the current crisis on a global and national platform.Written by experts in the fieldMaintaining quality and improving cancer care does not occur in a vacuum. It requires a coordinated effort among many team members to whom this book is directed. Cancer care in the United States is in crisis as per a recent National Institute of Health publication. Much of this has to do with the complexity of the cancer care, its delivery systems, the aging population and the diminishing workfor
