Overview: Die Problematik der Gemeinkostenzuteilung nimmt in der Unternehmenspraxis einen hohen Stellenwert ein, und wird künftig weiter an Bedeutung gewinnen. Wolfram Wißler analysiert mit Hilfe spieltheoretischer Ansätze, wie herkömmliche Zuteilungsverfahren bei dezentraler Unternehmensführung auf die Entscheidungen der Manager wirken. Darüber hinaus betrachtet der Autor verschiedene neue Zuteilungsverfahren und zeigt, daß das jeweils verwendete Verfahren einen erheblichen Einfluß auf den erzielbaren Unternehmensgewinn hat.978-3-8244-6527-9978-3-663-09086-1

Overview: These proceedings are of a symposium held jointly by the UK Haemophilia Centre Directors and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. The purpose of the meeting was to highlight the growing areas of haemophilia care and research as they serve as a model for the study of other disorders. In particular a major section of these proceedings is devoted to the investigation of liver disease in haemophili- an area which offers unique opportunities for both basic, applied and clinical research. The second section considers modern treatment of bleeding disorders and the potent

Overview: Addresses key texts in eight central animal welfare issues: animal experimentation, intensive farming, immorality and animal ethics, speciesism, animal welfare science, practical action to reform anim.This book examines the contents, influence, and potential of a personal selection of modern books published over the last fifty years that have been relevant to improving welfare. The works selected comprise three earlier classics that mainly deal with animal experimentation and intensive farming, as well as five that concentrate on specific subject areas, namely history, science, appli

Overview: Promotes understanding through multi-faceted explanations.Provides a comprehensive introduction, mapping a pillars-based organization.Connects expected areas of reader interest to topics and applicati.Computation theory is a discipline that uses mathematical concepts and tools to expose the nature of "computation" and to explain a broad range of computational phenomena: Why is it harder to perform some computations than others?  Are the differences in difficulty that we observe inherent, or are they artifacts of the way we try to perform the computations?  How does one reason about s

Overview: Backing up the pioneering medical researchers and experi­ menters are the phalanxes and cohorts of practising clinicians in district general hospitals and in general practice who may have to implement and apply any breakthroughs and advances in practical and realistic terms. This they cannot, and should not, be expected to do without careful consideration and analysis. It is essential, therefore, to have regular reviews of the growing points of medicine which are constructively critical as well as being enthusiastic and which can present the issues and implications clearly and fairly

Overview: For a given meromorphic function I(z) and an arbitrary value a, Nevanlinna‘s value distribution theory, which can be derived from the well known Poisson-Jensen for­ mula, deals with relationships between the growth of the function and quantitative estimations of the roots of the equation: 1 (z) - a = O. In the 1920s as an application of the celebrated Nevanlinna‘s value distribution theory of meromorphic functions, R. Nevanlinna [188] himself proved that for two nonconstant meromorphic func­ tions I, 9 and five distinctive values ai (i = 1,2,3,4,5) in the extended plane, if 1 1- (ai)
