Overview: .This edited collectionexamines the politics of semi-presidential countries in the Caucasus andCentral Asia. Semi-presidentialism is the situation where there is both adirectly elected fixed-term president and a prime minister and cabinet thatare collectively responsible for the legislature. There are four countrieswith a semi-presidential constitution in this region - Armenia, Azerbaijan,Georgia, and Kyrgyzstan. The authors introduce the concept ofsemi-presidentialism, place the countries in a general post-Soviet context,and compare them with Kazakhstan. They investigate the relatio

Overview: We often conceptualize that older adults retire into a life of carefree luxury among palm trees, golf courses, and pristine beaches. Unfortunately, reality differs today – many retire in place, and often it is the case they retire in rural areas far from hospitals and care-giving centers. For instance, over half of the older population in the state of Minnesota lives in small towns away from the center of care, which is Minneapolis/St. Paul. This year, ICOST 2008 aimed at focusing on this important reality and on gerontechnology––the use of technology to enhance the quality of life o

Overview: Mathematische Studie.Includes supplementary material: Michael Hoffmann stellt auf leicht verständliche Art und Weise die Grundlagen der stochastischen Analysis dar, d.h. die Begriffe der stochastischen Integration und der stochastischen Differentialgleichungen. Die gewonnene Theorie wird anschließend dazu verwendet, das verallgemeinerte Black-Scholes-Modell zu definieren. Es folgt eine Diskussion zu Arbitrage und der Bewertung von Finanzderivaten, ehe das klassische Black-Scholes-Modell als Spezialfall identifiziert wird. Das Werk ist besonders geeignet für Studenten, die einen leich

Overview: Profiles active research on smart sensors based on CMOS microelectronics;.Describes applications of sensors and sensor systems in cyber physical systems, the social information infrastructure in our m.This book describes the technology used for effective sensing of our physical world and intelligent processing techniques for sensed information, which are essential to the success of Internet of Things (IoT). The authors provide a multidisciplinary view of sensor technology from materials, process, circuits, and big data domains and showcase smart sensor systems in real applications in

Overview: There is hardly a science that is without the notion of "system". We have systems in mathematics, formal systems in logic, systems in physics, electrical and mechanical engineering, architectural-, operating-, infonnation-, programming systems in computer science, management-and PJoduction systems in industrial applications, economical-, ecological-, biological systems, and many more. In many of these disciplines formal tools for system specification, construction, verification, have been developed as well as mathematical concepts for system modeling and system simulation. Thus it is

Overview: Guide to areas particularly rich in objects.Guide to especially interesting objects (nebulae, clusters, galaxies).Spectacular photographsgalactic perspective." Much of the pleasure of Sky Vistas is an astronomy guidebook for both astronomical observing comes from "looking" with active and "armchair" observers. First, it is a practical observing guide to the deep-sky objects the mind as well as the eye. Thus Sky Vistas describes how the naked-eye appearance of the that are visible in low-power, wide-field instruments MilkyWay itselfrelates to the spiral structure of our like binocular

Overview: Deals with buckling and postbuckling behavior of thin plates and thin-walled structures.Presents two distinct models which allow for a wider understanding of the phenomenon.Allows to uncouple the phenThis monograph deals with buckling and postbuckling behavior of thin plates and thin-walled structures with flat wall subjected to static and dynamic load. The investigations are carried out in elastic range..The basic assumption here is the  thin plate theory. This method is used to determination the buckling load and postbuckling analysis of thin-walled structures subjected to static a
