Overview: Ihr Standardlehrbuch zur SozialpolitikVorwort Im Jahr 1980 erschien die erste Auflage dieses Lehrbuches unter dem Titel „So- alpolitik – Eine problemorientierte Einführung“. Damals hätte keiner von uns d- an gedacht und geglaubt, dass wir 27 Jahre später die vierte Auflage vorlegen w- den. Aber gerade die Unterschiede in den Themenfeldern, mit denen sich jeder Einzelne von uns in den vergangenen Jahren beschäftigt hat, waren eine wesent- che Voraussetzung für die vollständige inhaltliche Überarbeitung, Erweiterung und Aktualisierung des Lehrbuchs. Dass uns dieser Kraftakt – neben all

Overview: States the complementary rather than competitive relationship between Probability and Fuzzy Set Theory.Allows solutions to reallife problems with suitable combinations of both theories.Includes supple"Statistical Modeling, Analysis and Management of Fuzzy Data," or SMFD for short, is an important contribution to a better understanding of a basic issue -an issue which has been controversial, and still is though to a lesser degree. In substance, the issue is: are fuzziness and randomness distinct or coextensive facets of uncertainty? Are the theories of fuzziness and random­ ness compe

Overview: A demonstrably consistent use of infinitesimals permits a radically simplified approach to stochastic calculus.Chapters on asset pricing, Lévy processes and the Feynman path integral introduce readersStochastic analysis is not only a thriving area of pure mathematics with intriguing connections to partial differential equations and differential geometry. It also has numerous applications in the natural and social sciences (for instance in financial mathematics or theoretical quantum mechanics) and therefore appears in physics and economics curricula as well. However, existing approac

Overview: Offers insights deriving from different cultural approaches, all of which target the same issue: decision making in uncertain conditions.Describes original approaches to decision-making processes.Aids.This book targets the critical issue of decision making in uncertain conditions and situations. The aim is to increase readers’ understanding of complexity and of socio-economic interactions through the application of systems thinking perspectives. Among the various areas and topics addressed are complexity and sustainable management, markets as complex adaptive systems, the impacts of

Overview: Focuses on how reading, writing, and performance feature on board ships.Examines dynamics between crew and passengers or between different classes as well as public and private space.Extends oceanic aThe essays collected within this volume ask how literary practices are shaped by the experience of being at sea—and also how they .forge. that experience. Individual chapters explore the literary worlds of naval ships, whalers, commercial vessels, emigrant ships, and troop transports from the seventeenth to the twentieth-first century, revealing a rich history of shipboard reading, writi

Overview: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 1997 International Conference on Spatial Information Theory, COSIT‘97, held in Laurel Highlands, Pennsylvania, USA, in October 1997. The 31 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from a total of 66 submissions. Also included are seven posters. The volume is divided into sections on representations of change, structuring of space, boundaries and gradations, topological models of space, formal models of space, cognitive aspects of spatial acquisition, novel use of spatial information, wayfinding and map interpretation

Overview: Smart cards or IC cards offer a huge potential for informationprocessing purposes. The portability and processing power of IC cardsallow for highly secure conditional access and reliable distributedinformation processing. IC cards that can perform highly sophisticatedcryptographic computations are already available. Their application inthe financial services and telecom industries are well known. But thepotential of IC cards go well beyond that. Their applicability inmainstream Information Technology and the Networked Economy is limitedmainly by our imagination; the information proce

Overview: The purpose of this book is to survey computational flow research on the design and analysis of supercritical wing sections supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration at the Energy Research and Development Administration Mathematics and Computing Laboratory of New York University. The work was performed under NASA Grants NGR 33-016-167 and NGR 33-016-201 and ERDA Contract EY-76-C-02-3077. Computer programs to be listed and described have applications in the study of flight of modern aircraft at high sub­ sonic speeds. One of the codes generates cascades of shockle

Overview: Dieser Buchtitel ist Teil des Digitalisierungsprojekts Springer Book Archives mit Publikationen, die seit den Anfängen des Verlags von 1842 erschienen sind. Der Verlag stellt mit diesem Archiv Quellen für die historische wie auch die disziplingeschichtliche Forschung zur Verfügung, die jeweils im historischen Kontext betrachtet werden müssen. Dieser Titel erschien in der Zeit vor 1945 und wird daher in seiner zeittypischen politisch-ideologischen Ausrichtung vom Verlag nicht beworben.978-3-662-40573-4978-3-662-41473-6

Overview: Covers pathways of stress-induced mutagenesis in all systems.Serves a wide audience.Examines changed ideas about mutation and evolution.Includes supplementary material: .The discovery of stress-induced mutagenesis has changed ideas about mutation and evolution, and revealed mutagenic programs that differ from standard spontaneous mutagenesis in rapidly proliferating cells. The stress-induced mutations occur during growth-limiting stress, and can include adaptive mutations that allow growth in the otherwise growth-limiting environment. The stress responses increase mutagenesis specifi

Overview: The Advanced Science Institute on which this publication is based took the somewhat unusual form of a geological field symposium held during late August 1984. It was designed to demonstrate to experienced earth scientists from the North Atlantic area the full range of geological phenomena encountered in the British Caledonian rocks. The ASl travelled from South Wales to the far northwest of Scotland by the route shown on the map and in doing so examined sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks from Pembrokeshire (Dyfed), Cardigan (Ceridigian), Snowdonia, Anglesey, the English Lake
