Overview: The theme of this monograph is the adaptive control of systems in a stochastic environment and, more precisely, the study of the tracking problem for ARMAX SISO stochastic systems with time invariant and time varying parameters. Results of simultaneous tracking and parameter identification are included. The author has aimed to (1) provide a reasonably self-contained and up-to-date exposition of the tracking problem after having properly placed it amongst numerous ideas, approaches, and subproblems related to adaptive control, (2) display computer simulation results and discuss their

Overview: "Specification and transformation of programs" is short for a methodology of software development where, from a formal specification of a problem to be solved, programs correctly solving that problem are constructed by stepwise application of formal, semantics-preserving transformation rules. The approach considers programming as a formal activity. Consequently, it requires some mathematical maturity and, above all, the will to try something new. A somewhat experienced programmer or a third- or fourth-year student in computer science should be able to master most of this material - a

Overview: When confronted with the hows and whys of nature‘s computational engines, some prefer to focus upon neural function: addressing issues of neural system behavior and its relation to natural intelligence. Then there are those who prefer the study of the "mechanics" of neural systems: the nuts and bolts of the "wetware": the neurons and synapses. Those who investigate pulse coded implementations ofartificial neural networks know what it means to stand at the boundary which lies between these two worlds: not just asking why natural neural systems behave as they do, but also how they achi

Overview: Warum wird Schule verweigert?Diese Publikation ist dem Schulschwänzen, dem unerlaubten Fernbleiben von der Schule, gewidmet. Die Wissenschaft spricht dabei von «Schulabsentismus». Unter diesem Begriff subsumieren sich viele verschiedene Formen von Schul- senz: Schulverweigerung, das Zurückhalten des Kindes durch die Eltern, das Schwänzen einzelner Lektionen oder das Fehlen mehrerer Tage oder Wochen inklusive dessen gelegentliche Legitimation durch ein Arztzeugnis. Den Sch- schwänzern nehmen sich neuerdings insbesondere die Medien an. Sie behaupten, dass die Zahl der Schulschwänzer ri
