Overview: 1. 1 Historical Background and Relationship to the lEA One of the objectives of the energy research, development and demonstra­ tion program of the International Energy Agency (lEA) is to promote the development and application of new and improved energy technologies which could potentially help cover our energy needs. Early in 1976, a working party for Small Solar Power Systems (SSPS) was created with the approval and encouragement of the Committee for Research and Develop­ ment of the International Energy Agency (lEA) [1]. At that time the following countries showed interest in att

Overview: Vor dem Hintergrund eines bevorstehenden Generationswechsels von Unternehmern erlangen Management Buy-Out-Beteiligungen für Kapitalbeteiligungsgesellschaften zunehmende Bedeutung. Die Ausgestaltung eines dem Finanzierungsanlaß entsprechenden Beteiligungs-Risikomanagements hat daher einen großen Stellenwert.Dirk Neukirchen untersucht, welche Elemente die Kapitalbeteiligungsgesellschaften zur Reduzierung von MBO-Beteiligungsrisiken einsetzen. An diese Untersuchung, die auch neue Ansätze der Steueroptimierung und des Beteiligungs-Controlling beinhaltet, schließt sich die Konzipierung ei

These are the queer type, typified first by Gustave Flaubert, which

Overview: De NVJG heeft het initiatief genomen tot de totstandkoming van het boek Standaarden borstvoeding omdat in Nederland in de laatste jaren een negatieve ontwikkeling met betrekking tot het geven van borstvoeding zichtbaar wordt. Het blijkt dat moeders van pasgeborenen minder vaak dan vroeger voor borstvoeding kiezen en dat het geven ervan minder lang wordt volgehouden.Nog een argument om aan dit onderwerp aandacht te besteden, is het feit dat uniformiteit ontbreekt in de begeleiding door hulpverleners aan ouders die kiezen voor borstvoeding. Deze uniforme begeleiding is onontbeerlijk vo

Overview: Several books deal with Sobolev spaces on open subsets of R (n), but none yet with Sobolev spaces on Riemannian manifolds, despite the fact that the theory of Sobolev spaces on Riemannian manifolds already goes back about 20 years. The book of Emmanuel Hebey will fill this gap, and become a necessary reading for all using Sobolev spaces on Riemannian manifolds..Hebey‘s presentation is very detailed, and includes the most recent developments due mainly to the author himself and to Hebey-Vaugon. He makes numerous things more precise, and discusses the hypotheses to test whether they ca

The problem is often studied in the stylized settings provided by repeated matrix games (a.k.a. normal form games). The goal of this book is to develop MAL algorithms for such a setting that achiev

Overview: The aim of .Surviving the SOC Revolution: A Guide toPlatform-Based. .Design. is to provide the engineering communitywith a thorough understanding of the challenges involved when movingto system-on-a-chip and deliver a step-by-step methodology to get themthere. .Design reuse is most effective in reducing the cost and developmenttime when the components to be shared are close to the finalimplementation. On the other hand, it is not always possible ordesirable to share designs at this level, since minimal variations inspecification can result in different, albeit similar,implementations

Overview: Applied statisticians in many fields must frequently analyze time to event data. While the statistical tools presented in this book are applicable to data from medicine, biology, public health, epidemiology, engineering, economics, and demography, the focus here is on applications of the techniques to biology and medicine. The analysis of survival experiments is complicated by issues of censoring, where an individual‘s life length is known to occur only in a certain period of time, and by truncation, where individuals enter the study only if they survive a sufficient length of time o

Overview: .To identify the emergent trends in software-intensive and distributed and decentralized computer systems and their impact on the Information Society in the next 10--15 years, the European Commission has established two Coordinated Actions: Initially the project `Beyond the Horizon‘ and then, starting in 2006, the project `InterLink‘...This state-of-the-art survey presents the results of three workshops of the InterLink working group on software-intensive systems and novel computing paradigms. The objective was to imagine the landscape in which next generations of software-intensive
