Overview: Systeme, die sukzessiv erweitert werden sollen, begründen mit der Einstiegsinvestition häufig Abhängigkeiten vom gewählten Anbieter. Daraus ergeben sich für den Nachfrager erhebliche Unsicherheiten für die geplante Realisierung seines Systemkaufs. Gelingt es dem Anbieter nicht, derartige Unsicherheitswahrnehmungen des Kunden nachhaltig zu reduzieren, wird dieser seine Kaufentscheidung zugunsten eines alternativen Systemangebots treffen oder sogar seine Kaufabsicht verschieben, falls es ihm an Alternativen mangelt. Christoph Reinkemeier untersucht am Beispiel des Marktes für PPS-Syste

Overview: Examines new methods and tools for the rapidly evolving field of tumor modeling.Written by first-rate researchers in mathematical biology.The complexity of modeling living matter requires the developm.A major challenge in the modeling and simulation of tumor growth is the mathematical description of living matter, which is far more complex than a mathematical description of inert matter. One critical piece of this challenge is creating multiscale models that take into account subcellular, cellular, and macroscopic levels of cancer. The complexity of these different levels requires th

Overview: Since the first edition went to press in 1989, there have been many important developments concerning different aspects of maternity care. To take account of these, much needs to be added to this history. Late 1989 saw the publication of the double volume set of studies, Effective Care in Pregnancy and Childbirth, in which all the then existing evidence on all the associated procedures was considered and evaluated by well-informed and impartial authors representing many countries. This informative collection has since been followed by a flow of single reports of new research findings
