Overview: This monograph is designed to provide an introduction to the principal areas of tense logic. Many of the developments in this ever-growing field have been intentionally excluded to fulfill this aim. Length also dictated a choice between the alternative notations of A. N. Prior and Nicholas Rescher - two pioneers of the subject. I choose Prior‘s because of the syntactical parallels with the language it symbolizes and its close ties with other branches of logi­ cal theory, especially modal logic. The first chapter presents a wider view of the material than later chapters. Several lines

Overview: First book describing the sensing mechanism of the innate immune system..Includes supplementary material: On occasion, the innate immune system is referred to as the "primitive" immune system. Perhaps this has dissuaded immu­ nologists from analyzing it as energetically as they have analyzed the adaptive immune system during the past two decades. But while its phylogenetic origins are indeed ancient, and though it is "of the first type", there is nothing crude, nothing unsophisti­ cated, and nothing "inferior" about innate immunity. On the contrary, the innate immune system has had t

Overview: Includes supplementary material: .More than ten years after its discovery, still relatively little is known about the top quark, the heaviest known elementary particle. The present extensive survey summarizes and reviews top-quark physics based on the precision measurements at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider, as well as the sensitivity of these experiments to new physics. Finally, an outlook on top quark physics at the Large Hadron Collider is given..978-3-642-09011-0978-3-540-71060-8Series ISSN 1868-2146 Series E-ISSN 1861-440X

Overview: Die Theorien des strategischen Managements im Allgemeinen und des strategischen Technologiemanagements im Besonderen sind Themengebiete, die seit einigen Jahrzehnten mit zunehmender Intensität diskutiert werden.

Overview: This past July about sixty physicists from sixteen different countries gathered at St. Croix in the United States Virgin Islands for an Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Techniques and Concepts of High Energy Physics. The initial idea for the Institute arose one blustery and miserable day at Fermilab during discussions about all the wonderful summer schools that were prevalent throughout Europe but essentially nonexistent in the United States. I felt that it would be of great value to have an Institute that was located in a beautiful area and that catered primarily to the hard­ worki

Overview: Der europäischen Industrie wird vielfach ein technologisches Zurückbleiben hinter ihren schärfsten Weltmarktkonkurrenten, den USA und Japan, vorgeworfen.
