Written from a data-centric perspective, Information Systems for eGovernment presents a methodology that is grounded in computer science, but leveraged by sociological, organizational, economical, juridical analyses and methods. Examples and case studies are included, which illustrate the relevance of the approach.

This book applies the principles of lean management to innovation management. It addresses the key challenges facing leaders of knowledge organizations and presents a number of principles which they can use to bring more leadership into innovation work.

Der 3-b ndige Grundkurs f r Studienanf nger verbindet die mathematische Analysis (Soul) mit numerischer Berechnung (Body) und einer F lle von Anwendungen. Die Autoren haben die Inhalte im Unterricht erprobt. Band 1 behandelt die Grundlagen der Analysis.

This survey of modern logistics, updated in a second edition, includes proven strategies and tools for solving numerous logistical problems, with algorithms and formulae for the computer-based planning of logistic systems as well as their dynamic scheduling.

Combinatorial algebraic topology is a fascinating and dynamic field at the crossroads of algebraic topology and discrete mathematics. This volume is the first comprehensive treatment of the subject in book form.

This book presents a unified treatment of various problems arising in the theory of financial markets with friction. It gives a succinct account of arbitrage theory for financial markets with and without transaction costs based on a synthesis of ideas.

Delving into the classical origins of modern particle theories, this overview presents the state-of-the-art in particle physics. This volume also acts as reminder of the many benefits of this classical understanding that are simply dropped in modern accounts of inertia.

This volume is designed to be a lively introduction to the mathematics of this rapidly advancing subject, and a bridge to a number of hot topics in the economics of crime for current scholars.

This brilliant new book focuses on various techniques of computational intelligence, both single ones and those which form hybrid methods. These techniques are applied to issues of artificial intelligence, for example in the processing of speech and natural language, and in building expert systems and robots.

This is a completely new edition of a book which was ?rst published in 1994, where the main focus of many international efforts to develop data communication systems was on OSI - Open Systems Interconnection - the standardised archit- ture for communication systems developed within the International Organisation for Standardization, ISO.

This work, written by a leading Italian expert, illustrates how the Analysis of Controlled Deformation in Rocks and Soils (ADECO-RS) is used in the design and the construction of tunnels. This is a very new and effective way of tunnel construction.

This new edition strives yet again to provide readers with a working knowledge of chaos theory and dynamical systems. It does so through parallel introductory explanations in the book and interaction with carefully-selected programs supplied on the accompanying disk.

This book reviews blast cleaning technology. The author first systematically and critically reviews the theory behind the technology. Next you'll learn about the state of current blast cleaning, including many of today's cutting-edge industrial applications.

This book explores why, regarding practical reasoning, humans are sometimes still faster than artificial intelligence systems. It is the first to offer a self-contained presentation of neural network models for many computer science logics.

This book gathers concepts of information across diverse fields -physics, electrical engineering and computational science - surveying current theories, discussing underlying notions of symmetry, and showing how the capacity of a system to distinguish itself relates to information.

This book lays the foundations for understanding the requirements that shape the description of the various aspects related to Semantic Web services. The authors introduce the Web Service Modeling Language (WSML) in the form of ontologies.

Erfolgreiche Bauprojekte. Wie das geht, schildert dieses einzigartige, konkurrenzlose Fachbuch: wissenschaftlich, praxisorientiert, detailreich. Basierend auf der langj hrigen Praxis des Autors als Bauleiter, Gutachter und in der Aus- und Weiterbildung...

Trees can reduce noise by sound reflection and absorption and this is the first book bringing together the widely scattered literature on noise abatement by urban trees. The book will interest those concerned with environmental management, noise control, and urban forestry.

The other method that can consistently discretize continuum mechanics problems showing arbitrarily complex geometries is ?nite element method. These methods have the same advantage as ?nite element method of consistently discretizing cont- uum mechanics problems having arbitrarily complex geometries.

What are the secrets of competitive R&D on a global scale? Based on research with hundreds of R&D executives from more than 80 companies and 1000 R&D laboratories, this work presents fresh concepts and trends in global R&D management. It also includes case studies from 22 best-practice companies that show how to put these concepts into practice.

Furthermore, certain "steady" flows are inherently unsteady in the presence of flow separation, as for example the unsteady flow caused by the Karman vortex shedding downstream of a cylin der and "static" airfoil stall which is an inherently unsteady flow phenomenon.

This book approaches electrochemistry from a modern, atomistic point of view while integrating older, macroscopic concepts, taking special care to render the subject comprehensible to scientists from neighboring disciplines, especially surface science.

Based on the material covered in US and UK undergraduate physics courses, this volume provides a variety of physics problems useful for assignments or exams. A brief summary introduces the formulas in each chapter, and solutions are provided at the end.

This book presents the concept of business architecture and optimizing processes as a corporate system based on multiple corporate case studies, including Sony, NTT-DATA, NTT-DoCoMo, Toyota, Honda, Omron, Takara, Recruit, First Retailing, Panasonic and Canon.

This book explores recent advances in the mathematical modeling of the mechanical behavior of anisotropic solids under creep conditions. It also offers an overview of other experimental investigations in creep mechanics.

This book covers an area of ship structure analysis and design that has not been exhaustively examined by other references. It presents the basic concepts of the methods and procedures required to calculate torsion and shear stresses in ship structures.

Das Worterbuch enthalt einen Grundwortschatz mit 12.500 Begriffen in jeder Sprachrichtung (Deutsch - Englisch): zu Laborausstattung, Geraten, Methoden und Labor-Technologien ebenso wie zu Chemikalien und sicherheitsrelevanter Terminologie.

This book covers all aspects of chemical ocular burns, including history, epidemiology, chemical agents and reactions, histology, pathophysiology, clinical signs, medical and surgical treatments, and emergency care.
