Overview: The complexity of most real-time and embedded systems often exceeds that of other types of systems since, in addition to the usual spectrum of problems inherent in software, they need to deal with the complexities of the physical world. That world—as the proverbial Mr. Murphy tells us—is an unpredictable and often unfriendly place. Consequently, there is a very strong motivation to investigate and apply advanced design methods and technologies that could simplify and improve the reliability of real-time software design and implementation. As a result, from the first versions of UML i

Overview: 1. 1. The Principle of Universalizability-an informal explication This work is concerned with the so-called Principle of Universalizability. As we shall understand it, this principle represents a claim that moral properties of things (persons, actions, state of affairs, situations) are essentially independent of their purely ‘individual‘ or-as one often says -‘numerical‘ aspects. l Thus, if a thing, x, is better than another thing, y, then this fact is not dependent on x‘s being x nor on y‘s being y. If a certain person, a, has a duty to help another person, b, then this duty does no

Overview: This monograph began as a study of the consequences of labor force effects, in­ cluding unemployment, for the distribution of earnings. I began by developing a model of job search. But following my previous work on the distribution of earnings, the search theory took a different form from the standard literature. Workers and firms were engaged in mutual search which effectively assigned workers to jobs. A number of open questions immediately became apparent, including the relation bet­ ween unemployment and inequality, the nature and costs of unemployment, and the role of choice. The

Overview: Die Globalisierung stellt an die Steuerung von Unternehmen immer komplexere Anforderungen. Allerdings kann die Steuerung nur dann effizient sein, wenn das Rechnungswesen eines Unternehmens einheitlich und zugleich einfach gehalten ist...Wolfgang Schulte-Nölke untersucht, inwieweit die Internationalisierung durch eine Bilanzierung nach US-GAAP die einheitliche Gestaltung der Unternehmensrechnung unterstützt. Er vergleicht daher die Anforderungen an ein internes Steuerungsinstrument mit den konzeptionellen Grundlagen der amerikanischen Rechnungslegung und zeigt Möglichkeiten und Grenze

Overview: Is native speaker variation in understanding complex sentences due to individual differences in working memory capacity or in syntactic competence? The answer to this question has very important consequences for both theoretical and applied concerns in linguistics and education. This book is distinctive in giving an historical and interdisciplinary perspective on the rule- based and experience-based debate and in supporting an integrated account. In the study reported here, variation was found to be due to differences in syntactic competence and the author argues that sentence compre

Overview: Author‘s Web site Joel on Software is among the most popular independent sites for programmers with between 5,000-15,000 page views daily. His site has been called the "anti-Dilbert manifesto" and quo.Most programmers‘ fear of user interface (UI) programming comes from their fear of doing UI design. They think that UI design is like graphic design—the mysterious process by which creative, latte-drinking, all-black-wearing people produce cool-looking, artistic pieces. Most programmers see themselves as analytic, logical thinkers instead—strong at reasoning, weak on artistic judgment,
