Overview: Die DurchfUhrung strategischer Vorhaben wird in der Unternehmenspraxis zunehmend in Form strategischer Projekte vollzogen. In diesem Zusammenhang treten facetten­ reiche und höchst unterschiedliche Problemfelder auf, denen von Seiten der Unter­ nehmenspraxis wie auch der Betriebswirtschaftslehre begegnet werden muss. In die­ sem Zusammenhang wird die Forderung aufgestellt, dass die UntemehmensfUhrung durch eine sinnvolle und methodisch geprägte Planung und Kontrolle der Projekte eines Unternehmens unterstützt werden sollte. Dabei wird zunehmend auf die Thema­ tik des Multiprojektmana

Overview: Data fusion or statistical file matching techniques merge data sets from different survey samples to solve the problem that exists when no single file contains all the variables of interest. Media agencies are merging television and purchasing data, statistical offices match tax information with income surveys. Many traditional applications are known but information about these procedures is often difficult to achieve. The author proposes the use of multiple imputation (MI) techniques using informative prior distributions to overcome the conditional independence assumption. By means

Overview: Innovative Studie zur Stärkung von Automobil-Händlermarken.Die abnehmende Differenzierbarkeit von Fahrzeughändlern und die zunehmende Homogenität der von Fahrzeugherstellern verfolgten Markenstrategien erfordern zunehmend den Aufbau eines eigenständigen Händler-Markenmanagements. Patrick Roßmann entwickelt ein Untersuchungsmodell, dessen empirische Analyse die Relevanz verschiedener Determinanten für die Stärkung von Retailer Brand Images darstellt und zur Steigerung der Kundenloyalität gegenüber dem Händler führt. Es wird aufgezeigt, dass die Bedeutung der Manufacturer Brands übersc

Overview: Introduces most theories related to non-parametric shape optimization problems.Summarizes basic theories in the first six chapters, with Chap. 4 especially valuable for engineers.Devotes the three finThis book provides theories on non-parametric shape optimization problems, systematically keeping in mind readers with an engineering background. Non-parametric shape optimization problems are defined as problems of finding the shapes of domains in which boundary value problems of partial differential equations are defined. In these problems, optimum shapes are obtained from an arbitrary

Overview: A book such as this one necessarily entails the effort of many individuals. Its first seed was a workshop in 1988 that one of us (K. L. C. ) designed and directed at the City University of New York Graduate Center as part of a series of conferences and workshops on topics in neuropsychology spon­ sored by the Institute for Research in Behavioral Neuroscience (IRBN). At that time, studies in the efficacy of olfaction as an alternative modality of stimulation in brain-injured adults were taking place at IRBN. The work­ shop helped to spark many new ideas among IRBN‘s staff, leading to

Overview: In dem vorliegenden Band wird das Thema Geburtsschmerz unter dem Aspekt neuer neurobiologischer Erkenntnisse behandelt. Seit der Entdeckung körpereigener, schmerzlindernder Stoffe wurde vermutet, daß diese sogenannten Endorphine beim Schmerzgeschehen unter der Geburt eine Rolle spielen könnten. Mittels einer für Opiatwirkungen sensitiven Methode konnte gezeigt werden, daß es mit fortschreitender Schwangerschaft bis zur Geburt zu einem Anstieg der Schmerzschwellen im Sinne einer verminderten Schmerzempfindlichkeit kommt. Dieses Phänomen bildet sich nach der Geburt spontan zurück. Dies

Overview: Combines an overview of swarm intelligence with an up-to-date treatment of the advances in the field.Includes supplementary material: Swarm intelligence is a modern arti?cial intelligence discipline that is c- cerned with the design of multiagent systems with applications, e.g., in - timization and in robotics. The design paradigm for these systems is fun- mentally di?erent from more traditional approaches. Instead of a sophisticated controller that governs the global behavior of the system, the swarm intelligence principle is based on many unsophisticated entities that cooperate in

Overview: See how to identify security requirements during all phases of systems engineering.Learn how to model and implement security-critical applications and interorganizational workflows using model-driven .While their basic principles and ideas are well understood and cogent from a conceptual perspective, the realization of interorganizational workflows and applications based on service-oriented architectures (SOAs) remains a complex task, and, especially when it comes to security, the implementation is still bound to low-level technical knowledge and hence inherently error-prone....Hafne
