Selected Writings on Computing: A Personal Perspective
ISBN: 9781461256977 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 362 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since the summer of 1973, when I became a Burroughs Research Fellow, my life has been very different from what it had been before. The daily routine changed: instead of going to the University each day, where I used to spend most of my time in the company of others, I now went there only one day a week and was most of the time -that is, when not travelling - alone in my study. In my solitude, mail and the written word in general became more and more important. The circumstance that my employer and I had the Atlantic Ocean between us was a further incentive to keep a fairly complete record of...

Nonlinear Physical Oceanography: A Dynamical Systems Approach to the Large Scale Ocean Circulation and El Niño
ISBN: 9789048155415 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 458 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In this book, the methodology of dynamical systems theory is applied to investigate the physics of the global ocean circulation. Topics include the dynamics of the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic Ocean, the stability of the thermohaline circulation and the El Nino/Southern Oscillation phenomenon in the Tropical Pacific. On the other hand, the book also deals with the numerical methods for applying bifurcation analysis on large dimensional dynamical systems, with thousands or more degrees of freedom, which arise through discretization of ocean models. The novel approach in understanding the...

On Model Uncertainty and Its Statistical Implications: Proceedings of a Workshop, Held in Groningen, the Netherlands, September 25-26, 1986
ISBN: 9783540193678 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 22 dni roboczych In this book problems related to the choice of models in such diverse fields as regression, covariance structure, time series analysis and multinomial experiments are discussed. The emphasis is on the statistical implications for model assessment when the assessment is done with the same data that generated the model. This is a problem of long standing, notorious for its difficulty. Some contributors discuss this problem in an illuminating way. Others, and this is a truly novel feature, investigate systematically whether sample re-use methods like the bootstrap can be used to assess the...

Edible Oil Processing from a Patent Perspective
ISBN: 9781489973412 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Patent literature has always been a mine of information, but until recently, it was difficult to access. Now, with the Internet, access to all patent documents is almost instantaneous and free. However, interpreting the technical information provided by patent literature requires a certain skill. This monograph aims to provide that skill by explaining patent jargon and providing background information on patenting. Patents dealing with edible oil processing are used to explain various aspects of patenting. To make the explanations less impersonal, some have been larded with personal...

Nonlinear Climate Dynamics
ISBN: 9780521879170 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 367 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book introduces stochastic dynamical systems theory in order to synthesize our current knowledge of climate variability. Nonlinear processes, such as advection, radiation and turbulent mixing, play a central role in climate variability. These processes can give rise to transition phenomena, associated with tipping or bifurcation points, once external conditions are changed. The theory of dynamical systems provides a systematic way to study these transition phenomena. Its stochastic extension also forms the basis of modern (nonlinear) data analysis techniques, predictability studies and...

The Impact of International Debt Relief
ISBN: 9780415748377 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. International debt relief continues to be a highly controversial subject. Although many heavily indebted poor countries have received large amounts of debt relief over the past quarter of a century, it doesn't appear to be enough. This book examines the impact of international debt relief efforts since 1990. It assesses whether the various debt relief modalities have enhanced economic growth in eight highly indebted countries in Latin America and Africa. Dijkstra argues that fundamental changes of the international aid and debt architecture are necessary to stop the flow of new multilateral...

Mortuary Variability and Social Diversity in Ancient Greece: Studies on Ancient Greek Death and Burial
ISBN: 9781789694420 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Even though, at death, identity and social status may undergo major changes, by studying funerary customs we can greatly gain in the understanding of a community's social structure, distribution of wealth and property, and the degree of flexibility or divisiveness in the apportionment of power. With its great regional diversity and variety of community forms and networks, ancient Greece offers a unique context for exploring, through the burial evidence, how communities developed. Mortuary Variability and Social Diversity in Ancient Greece brings together early career scholars working on...

Genesis and Properties of Collapsible Soils
ISBN: 9780792335870 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 413 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Collapsing engineering soils are a formidable hazard around the world. These difficult materials also include some of the world's most fertile agricultural soils, fostering dense human populations which are therefore increasingly at risk. Despite an impressive literature on the engineering aspects of collapsing soils, these materials are coming under increasing scrutiny by scientists in other fields. This is most evidently the case with soil scientists, stratigraphers and sedimentologists. Past earth surface conditions have a direct influence on the detailed behaviour of collapsible soils: as...

Towards Sustainable Development in Central America and the Caribbean
ISBN: 9780333793374 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 229 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Since the economic decline in the early 1980s, most countries in Central America and the Caribbean have returned to positive growth rates. The recovery often coincided with or followed extensive neoliberal reforms. The contributors to this book address the crucial question of whether these growth rates are sustainable. Several aspects of sustainability are assessed, in particular macroeconomic, social, and ecological aspects. The book includes both comparative analyses focusing on one of these aspects of sustainability, and country case studies. The conclusion is that these countries have not...

Predicate Calculus and Program Semantics
ISBN: 9781461279242 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This booklet presents a reasonably self-contained theory of predicate trans former semantics. Predicate transformers were introduced by one of us (EWD) as a means for defining programming language semantics in a way that would directly support the systematic development of programs from their formal specifications. They met their original goal, but as time went on and program derivation became a more and more formal activity, their informal introduction and the fact that many of their properties had never been proved became more and more unsatisfactory. And so did the original exclusion of...
