Overview: Includes supplementary material: .When in 1981 Louis and Walter Alvarez, the father and son team, unearthed a tell-tale Iridium-rich sedimentary horizon at the 65 million years-old Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary at Gubbio, Italy, their find heralded a paradigm shift in the study of terrestrial evolution.  Since the 1980s the discovery and study of asteroid impact ejecta in the oldest well-preserved terrains of Western Australia and South Africa, by Don Lowe, Gary Byerly, Bruce Simonson, Scott Hassler, the author and others, and the documentation of new exposed and buried impact structu

Overview: First book on this topic.Contains important background material for students and practitioners.Many contributions from interdisciplinary teams.Includes supplementary material: Hardware-intrinsic security is a young field dealing with secure secret key storage. By generating the secret keys from the intrinsic properties of the silicon, e.g., from intrinsic Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs), no permanent secret key storage is required anymore, and the key is only present in the device for a minimal amount of time. The field is extending to hardware-based security primitives and prot

Overview: A promising concept for the design of future MCS.The design of Management Control Systems (MCS) in the context of financial institutions should be reconsidered with regards to their ability to improve organizational justice perceptions. Promoting organizational justice can help banks to build significantly more trust and influence employees’ behaviors in the best interest of the organization. Especially the design of Beyond Budgeting as a MCS that emphasizes social control mechanisms and facilitates autonomous working appears to be a promising concept for the design of future MCS in

Overview: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 32nd IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Testing Software and Systems, ICTSS 2020, which was supposed to be held in Naples, Italy, in December 2020, but was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic..The 17 regular papers and 4 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. ICTSS is a series of international conferences addressing the conceptual, theoretic, and practical problems of testing software systems, including communication protocols, services, distributed platforms, middleware, embe

Overview: Edited and Written by leading experts in textiles and clothing sustainability.Discusses the theoretical concepts of recycling and upcycling.Presents various options for recycling and upcycling in the .This book discusses in detail the concepts of recycling and upcycling and their implications for the textiles and fashion sector. In addition to the theoretical concepts, the book also presents various options for recycling and upcycling in textiles and fashion. Although recycling is a much-developed and widely used concept, upcycling is also gaining popularity in the sector..978-981-10

Overview: The discussion concentrates on physical tools and properties, emphasizing techniques that are contributing to new developments and avoiding those that are already well established and whose results haPhysics and the life sciences have established new connections within the past few decades, resulting in biological physics as an established subfield with strong groups working in many physics departments. These interactions between physics and biology form a two-way street with physics providing new tools and concepts for understanding life, while biological systems can yield new insig

Overview: Utilizes a marketing framework based on a number of major scholars in field, including a review of 4Ps of STM journals.Evaluates short-term projections about the state of scholarly journal publishing..This book analyzes the various economic and marketing strategies utilized by the five major STM commercial scholarly journal publishers since 2000. This period has witnessed tremendous economic, marketing, and technological growth including the migration from a print only to a hybrid publishing format. With this growth, the industry has also seen the rise of open access publishing, copy

Overview: Intended for mathematicians, engineers, graduate students and practitioners working on and using boundary element methods.Presents numerous examples demonstrating the superiority of the isogeometric BThis book discusses the introduction of isogeometric technology to the boundary element method (BEM) in order to establish an improved link between simulation and computer aided design (CAD) that does not require mesh generation. In the isogeometric BEM, non-uniform rational B-splines replace the Lagrange polynomials used in conventional BEM. This may seem a trivial exercise, but if impl

Overview: Comprehensive overview of the topic.Geochemical barrier zones play an important role in determining various physical systems and characteristics of the oceans, e.g. hydrodynamics, salinity, temperature and light. In this book, each of the 40 barrier zones covered are illustrated and defined by physical-chemical parameters. Among the topics discussed are the processes of inflow, transformation and precipitation of the sedimentary layer of the open oceans and more restricted areas such as the Baltic, Black and Mediterranean Seas. This well-illustrated book may serve as the basis for co

Overview: Nearly three years have passed since the publication of the original Russian edition, in which time there have appeared various papers on recent research on the transuranium elements, of which the most notable concern the production of element 105 at Dubna and Berkeley. There has also been much fresh information on elements 104 (kurchatovium) and 103 (lawrencium). Our knowledge of shell effects in the fission barrier has been extended. Hopes of finding relatively stable superheavy elements have stimulated searches for such elements in nature as well as rapid development in heavy­ ion

Overview: Presents expert opinions and up-to-date studies on tau.Provides new insights into the tau molecule and tauopathies.Offers inspiration for development of effective therapies.This book presents essential studies and cutting-edge research results on tau, which is attracting increasing interest as a target for the treatment of Alzheimer‘s disease. Tau is well known as a microtubule-associated protein that is predominantly localized in the axons of neurons.  In various forms of brain disease, neuronal loss occurs, with deposition of hyperphosphorylated tau in the remaining neurons.  Impor

Overview: This book is a comparative study of the role that domestic factors play in shaping the form and content of Western policy towards the Soviet Union. The countries whose policies are featured are Great Britain, France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United States.978-0-333-53500-4978-1-349-20985-9

Overview: The chapters in this book provide detailed analyses of a range of issues that feed into an overview of the strategic development of the MNE over the past 40 years. This modeled as the evolution of the MNE from a multidomestic hierarchy to a network hierarchy to the contemporary strategic diversity of the heterarchy. The extensive range of empirical and conceptual analysis covers the strategic roles and competitive evolution of subsidiaries; the positioning of R&D labs of MNEs; how MNEs‘ R&D and product development programmes relate to, and affect the performance of, countries‘ nation

Overview: This book will focus on telomere and telomerase in human cancers and may provide medical doctors, pathologists, and translational cancer researchers with a deep understanding of these unique and fasci.Telomerase, an enzyme that maintains telomeres and endows eukaryotic cells with immortality, was first discovered in tetrahymena in 1985. In 1990s, it was proven that this enzyme also plays a key role in the infinite proliferation of human cancer cells. Now telomere and telomerase are widely accepted as important factors involved in cancer biology, and as promising diagnostic tools and

Overview: This book critically reviews the British experience in Hong Kong with special emphasis on the tenure of the last governor, Chris Patten, and the discourse he used in guiding the transfer of sovereignty to China. While the People‘s Republic of China proclaimed the recovery of Hong Kong to be just retribution for a century and a half of national shame under British rule, Patten, as the spokesperson for the British, was concerned that Britain‘s exit from its last significant colony should be an honourable one.978-0-333-68313-2978-1-349-26135-2
