Overview: Mit der zunehmenden Globalisierung lassen sich verschiedene Strategien der Markenhersteller beobachten. Einerseits werden Markenportfolios stark reduziert bzw. Marken internationalisiert, andererseits akquirieren Unternehmen "regionale Schätze" und nehmen dabei sogar Kannibalisierungseffekte in Kauf...Anja Geigenmüller nutzt die Region der neuen deutschen Bundesländer, um den Einfluss der Markenherkunft auf die Wahrnehmung regionaler Marken zu untersuchen. Sie zeigt, dass regionale Marken an Marktbedeutung gewinnen und die Relevanz nationaler Marken in Frage stellen werden. Daraus le

Overview: Contains very new results that are not yet presented in other similar books.Enlarge the spectrum of Rational Extended thermodynamic to polyatomic gas and mixture with multi temperature for possible ap.This book is dedicated to the recent developments in RET with the aim to explore polyatomic gas, dense gas and mixture of gases in non-equilibrium. In particular we present the theory of dense gases with 14 fields, which reduces to the Navier-Stokes Fourier classical theory in the parabolic limit. Molecular RET with an arbitrary number of field-variables for polyatomic gases is also dis

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Replication is a topic of interest in the distributed computing, distributed systems, and database communities. Although these communities have traditionally looked at replication from different viewpoints and with different goals (e.g., performance versus fault tolerance), recent developments have led to a convergence of these different goals. The objective of this state-of-the-art survey is not to speculate about the future of replication, but rather to understand the present, to make an assessment of approximately 30 years of research on replicati
