Overview: Since World War II the subject of social choice has grown in many and surprising ways. The impossibility theorems have suggested many directions: mathematical characterisations of voting structures satisfying various sets of conditions, the consequences of restricting choice to certain domaines, the relation to competitive equilibrium and the core, and trade-offs among the partial satisfactions of some conditions. The links with classical and modern theories of justice and, in particular, the competing ideas of rights and utilitarianism have shown the power of formal social choice an

Overview: .Silicon-on-Insulator Technology: Materials to VLSI, Third Edition., retraces the evolution of SOI materials, devices and circuits over a period of roughly twenty years. Twenty years of progress, research and development during which SOI material fabrication techniques have been born and abandoned, devices have been invented and forgotten, but, most importantly, twenty years during which SOI Technology has little by little proven it could outperform bulk silicon in every possible way. The turn of the century turned out to be a milestone for the semiconductor industry, as high-quality

Overview: Framework for creating a sustainable corporate culture.6-phase process illustrates the implementation steps.With an accompanying example for implementation in practice.Corporate culture is the most important and central success factor for sustainably successful organizations. If one understands corporate culture as a reality of life within companies which can be formed and developed, it becomes a key management tool. In practice, however, there is often a lack of concrete models, methods and approaches on how to directly change and shape the corporate culture. This is the aim of this

Overview: .Algorithms in algebraic geometry go hand in hand with software packages that implement them. Together they have established the modern field of computational algebraic geometry which has come to play a major role in both theoretical advances and applications. Over the past fifteen years, several excellent general purpose packages for computations in algebraic geometry have been developed, such as, CoCoA, Singular and Macaulay 2. While these packages evolve continuously, incorporating new mathematical advances, they both motivate and demand the creation of new mathematics and smarter
