Overview: Für eine effiziente Kapitalallokation, insbesondere mit Blick auf die Hinterlegung ausreichender Eigenmittel zur Absicherung gegen extreme Marktbewegungen, ist eine möglichst genaue Abschätzung der Marktrisiken erforderlich. Die Ermittlung des Value-at-Risk ist in diesem Zusammenhang von großer Bedeutung. ..Jens Fricke untersucht die theoretischen Grundlagen der verschiedenen Value-at-Risk Ansätze. Besonderen Wert legt er dabei auf die Darlegung neuerer Ansätze sowie die konsequente Ausweitung auf die 10-Schritt-Prognose, auf die multivariate Betrachtungsweise und die Einbeziehung vo

Overview: Die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika sind nach 1945 zur führen­ den Weltmacht und zu einem der wichtigsten Partner Deutsch­ lands geworden. Sie sicherten während des Kalten Krieges die Freiheit Westdeutschlands und West-Berlins und trugen maß­ geblich zum wirtschaftlichen Aufstieg der Bundesrepublik bei. Ihre demokratischen politischen Ideale und ihre moderne Kul­ tur fanden bei den Deutschen positive Resonanz. Menschen­ rechte und ein freiheitlich-pluralistisches Demokratieverständ­ nis prägen beide Gesellschaften. Durch die Kulturbeziehungen entstand ein dichtes Netz von Austauschpr

Overview: This book deals with some of the major theoretical and descriptive concerns of the historical linguist. The author presents a variationist analysis of weak object pronoun placement in Greek during a transitional period of the language when these elements exhibited both clitic-like and affix-like behaviour. The statistical analysis of the data, providing the first accurate description of the pattern of variation, is used in showing that existing accounts fall short of a full explanation. An alternative approach forces re-evaluation of the role of generalizations in linguistic explanat

Overview: The only book to comprehensively cover virus assembly, and specifically the process of genome encapsidation.Can be used in graduate courses in virology.Viral Genome Packaging. focuses on the process of genome "packaging" within a pre-formed viral procapsid. The chapters of this book concentrate on the biochemistry, enzymology and structural aspects of the genome packaging machinery. This book defines a broad mechanistic basis for the process across the prokaryotic and eukaryotic border, and for DNA and RNA viruses. The biochemical, biophysical and structural aspects of genome packagi

Overview: Over the past few years, the area of volunteer work and civic engagement are topics that have received increasing attention from both the public as well as sociological research. In particular, there has been a controversy as to what - gree voluntary work can be regarded as a collective solution for attenuating - bour market problems and risks of social exclusion. Empirical evidence for the employment effects of voluntary work has made scholars more sceptical than many optimistic scenarios. So far, however, the links between paid work and voluntary work have mainly been discussed as

Overview: Provides 17 research chapters of up-to-date information on molecular virology, with emphasis upon viral protein and nucleoprotein structure and function.Written by acknowledged experts in their field..The Subcellular Biochemistry series has recently embarked upon an almost encyclopaedic coverage of topics relating to the structure and function of macromolecular complexes (Volumes 82, 83 and 87). The present multi-author text covers numerous aspects of current research into molecular virology, with emphasis upon viral protein and nucleoprotein structure and function. Structural data f

Overview: It is apparent that wilt diseases continue to be a major problem in crop production because of the number of crops affected, the number and genetic variability of pathogens involved, and their widespread occurrence throughout tropical and temperate regions under a variety of cropping systems. It is also apparent, however, that new understandings and approaches, often in combinations not previously discerned, offer exciting new prospects for research, understanding and practical control methods. The current state-of-the-art and fields for further studies were discussed by researchers

Overview: Violence and injustice are two major political problems facing the world today. Offering a fresh, innovative analysis of the concept of violence, this book presents an original insight into the nature of injustice. Addressing three key questions, it forces us to rethink the scope and aims of a theory of social justice.978-0-230-55296-8978-0-230-24641-6

Overview: Pedestrian Protection Systems (PPSs) are on-board systems aimed at detecting and tracking people in the surroundings of a vehicle in order to avoid potentially dangerous situations. These systems, together with other Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) such as lane departure warning or adaptive cruise control, are one of the most promising ways to improve traffic safety. By the use of computer vision, cameras working either in the visible or infra-red spectra have been demonstrated as a reliable sensor to perform this task. Nevertheless, the variability of human’s appearance, n

Overview: This volume integrates theory and experiment to place the study of vision within the context of the action systems which use visual information. This theme is developed by stressing: (a) The importance of situating anyone part of the brain in the context of its interactions with other parts of the brain in subserving animal behavior. The title of this volume emphasizes that visual function is to be be viewed in the context of the integrated functions of the organism. (b) Both the intrinsic interest of frog and toad as animals in which to study the neural mechanisms of visuomotor coor

Overview: Despite the claims of Steven Pinker and others, violence has remained a historical constant since the Enlightenment, even though its forms and visibility have been radically transformed. Accordingly, the studies gathered here recast debate over violence in modern societies by undermining teleological and reassuring narratives of progress.978-1-349-47843-9978-1-137-37869-9
