Overview: Includes supplementary material: IP is clearly emerging as the networking paradigm for the integration of the tr- ?c ?ows generated by a variety of new applications (IP telephony, multimedia multicasting, e-business, ...), whose performance requirements may be extremely di?erent. This situation has generated a great interest in the development of te- niques for the provision of quality of service (QoS) guarantees in IP networks. Two proposals have already emerged from the IETF groups IntServ and Di?- Serv, but research and experiments are continuing, in order to identify the most e?e

Overview: Provides a comprehensive, detailed and lucid survey of previous approaches to the problem of exceptional wide scope, a major topic in formal semantics.The author’s carefully motivated and explicated a.Addressing an issue that has puzzled the linguistics community for many years, this book offers a novel approach to the exceptional wide scope behaviour of indefinites. It is the first book explicitly dedicated to exceptional wide scope phenomena. Its unique approach offers an explanation for the fact that it is only a proper subset of the indefinites that shows this exceptional wide sc

Overview: The fundamental goal of physics is an understanding of the forces of nature in their simplest and most general terms. Yet there is much more involved than just a basic set of equations which eventually has to be solved when applied to specific problems. We have learned in recent years that the structure of the ground state of field theories (with which we are generally concerned) plays an equally funda­ mental role as the equations of motion themselves. Heisenberg was probably the first to recognize that the ground state, the vacuum, could acquire certain prop­ erties (quantum number

Overview: 2nd revised and extended edition.Offers an essential introduction to survey research and quantitative methods.Shows how to conduct empirical tests in R.This textbook offers an essential introduction to survey research and quantitative methods with clear instructions on how to conduct statistical tests with R. Building on the premise that we need to teach statistical methods in a holistic and practical format, the book guides students through the four main elements of survey research and quantitative analysis: (1) the importance of survey research, (2) preparing a survey, (3) conducti

Overview: Defines quorum sensing (QS) systems as the global regulators of bacterial genes expression.Discusses the potential of QS regulation as a new drug target for the treatment of bacterial infections.AddreMicrobial relationships with all life forms can be as free living, symbiotic or pathogenic. Human beings harbor 10 times more microbial cells than their own. Bacteria are found on the skin surface, in the gut and other body parts. Bacteria causing diseases are the most worrisome. Most of the infectious diseases are caused by bacterial pathogens with an ability to form biofilm. Bacteria w

Overview: Exploring the relationships between qualitative research and social change, this bookasks how social change is informed and influenced by research. Examples discussed are from research practice and experiences in the fields of sociology, social work, professional practice, education, criminal justice and anthropology."978-1-349-35899-1978-0-230-58396-2

Overview: Auf dem Gebiete der Schweißtechnik sind in den letzten Jahren eine Fülle von neuen Erkenntnissen und Entwicklungen zu verzeichnen. Hierauf fußt die stetig wachsende Bedeutung der Schweißtechnik als Fertigungsverfahren. Der Begriff "schweißbar" ist heute ebenso bedeutungsvoll und wichtig, wie es noch vor Jahren allein das Festigkeitsverhalten oder die chemische Zu­ sammensetzung des Werkstoffes war. Sehr wesentlichen Anteil an der verstärkten Anwendung schweißtechnischer Fertigungsverfahren haben die Vorteile, die sich bei der Herstellung von Verbindungen metallischer Werkstoffe gegen

Overview: Standortbestimmung und ZukunftsperspektiveWas (ver)heißt qualitative Forschung für erziehungswissenschaftliches Denken und pädagogisches Handeln? Qualitative Forschungsmethoden sind zum großen Teil aus Nachbardisziplinen der Erziehungswissenschaft importiert und weiterentwickelt worden. Daher stellt sich die Frage, ob es so etwas wie eigenständige erziehungswissenschaftliche Forschung gibt oder das Erziehungswissenschaftliche vielmehr in der besonderen Fragestellung, den spezifischen Grundbegriffen und der charakteristischen Verwendung der Methoden zu suchen ist. In den Beiträgen geb

Overview: Several new examples and exercises.Includes supplementary material: Since the need for a third edition of this book has arisen, we have endeavoured to improve and extend it in several ways. At many places small changes were made, misprints have been corrected, and references have been added. In Chap. 5 new theoretical and experimental results on the Lamb shift in heavy atoms and on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon are reported. We have also added a number of new topics in Chaps. 3, 5, and 7 in the form of examples and exercises. Example 3. 19 contains a detailed treatment of
