This pioneering English-language textbook on case-based reasoning includes chapter summaries, background notes, and exercises. The class-tested, systematic presentation moves from core principles to methodology, advanced techniques, and knowledge sources.

This book features recent research on computational intelligence techniques for the automated design of analog and high-frequency circuits. It will help readers handle state-of-the-art algorithms and even design their own methods.

This book shows how to build in, evaluate, and demonstrate reliability and availability of components, equipment, systems. It features checklists for design reviews and more than 100 practice oriented examples.

This book develops a uniform accurate method which is capable of dealing with vibrations of laminated beams, plates and shells with arbitrary boundary conditions including classical boundaries, elastic supports and their combinations.

These languages are quite similar with respect to persistency, and the authors explain their differences where necessary.The book targets professional programmers working on any industry applications, it teaches you how to design your own persistent data or how to use the existing packages efficiently.

In order to realize this hope, it firstly depends on the transformation from the previous high birth rate, high death rate, and low growth rate of population, to a high birth rate, low death rate, and high growth rate, and finally to a low birth rate, low death rate, and low growth rate.

Notable for its analysis of real-life cases and frank interviews with lawyers, this unique ethnographic study of German prosecutorial decision making shows how efficiency measures such as charge bargaining are undermining the system's celebrated objectivity.

This book explains how mobile computer usability is shaped by the increasing integration of personal circumstances in organization. The word 'organizational' is used to describe this kind of personality - hence an alternative organizational personality perspective on mobile computer usability.

This book covers advances in science and technology communication and popularization practice and research (STCP) both in China and abroad. It calls for a greater emphasis to be placed on research into promoting scientific literacy.

This book reports on the origin and history of polycondensation chemistry beginning in the first half of the 19th century. It also discusses the classical theory of step-growth polymerizations in the light of the latest experimental and theoretical results.

The revised and updated 3rd edition of Plant Litter reflects and discusses new findings and re-evaluates earlier ones in light of recent research and current areas of investigation. Covers decomposition dynamics and new analytical technique using 13c-nmr.

The Baltic Sea is an area extensively explored by oceanographers. This work presents both qualitative and quantitative descriptions of the main carbon flows in the Baltic Sea as well as their possible shifts induced by climatic and global change.

This book shows how to escape the working capital trap by improving in-house financing potential. Covers different operating ratios, and views in-house financing from company and supply chain perspectives. Also presents the "Procurement Value Added" concept.

This book provides students and researchers in organic synthesis with a detailed discussion of carbonylation from the basics through to applications. It discusses the past, present and future of carbonylation reactions.

This book offers the fundamentals of polymer design and synthesis. Discusses properties and characterization of polymers, and describes principles of polymerization reactions including step, radical chain, ionic chain, chain copolymerization and more.

This book presents numerous practical details, examples and case studies for a pragmatic use and combination of strategy methods. It offers a practical description of the complete process that will help readers to establish a realisable strategy.

In light of recent explorations of their non-intuitive dynamics, this book presents proposals as well as actual experiments on how quantum walks can be implemented in the laboratory, underpinned by a range of quantum, classical and hybrid technologies.

This book provides a unique perspective for evaluating the ethics, practices, and standards of modern zoos and aquariums. It offers a blueprint for the implementation of welfare measures and an objective rationale for their widespread use.

This book shows case studies of multimodal interactive technologies for both image and video applications. They cover a wide spectrum of applications, ranging from interactive handwriting transcriptions to human-robot interactions in real environments.

This book provides a comprehensive and detailed framework for the implementation of Continuous Improvement and Lean Six Sigma in a professional project management environment, bringing together Lean Six Sigma and the PMBOK standard for project management.
