The mathematical presentation is clear and self-contained.This book, representing 15 years of work at RAND ...

This book is a must-read for all who love nature and the environment. It contains 50 inspiring essays written by Singaporeans and friends who share their perspectives, expertise and experience -- as scientists, lawyers, economists, engineers, bankers, government officers, and civil society -- all linked by a love for nature, for the environment, and for Singapore. The essays focus on the protection and preservation of Singapore's rich biodiver...

This volume contains a set of pedagogical reviews covering the most recent applications of low-dimensional quantum field theory in condensed matter physics, written by experts who have made major contributions to this rapidly developing field of research. The main purpose is to introduce active young researchers to new ideas and new techniques which are not covered by the standard textbooks.

High precision measurements of weak neutral current and charged current processes and of the properties of the Z and W bosons have established the standard electroweak model as correct down to a distance scale of 10-16 cm, and are a sensitive probe of possible underlying physics. In this book, all aspects of the program are considered in detail, including the structure of the standard model, radiative corrections, high precision experiments, a...

This book integrates the current research on diversity, equity, and inclusion with corporate practice and describes how these initiatives affect organizations' morale, performance, and output. Academic researchers, corporate executives tasked with implementing Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI), and regulators face the problem of balancing DEI initiatives, which could generate diverse ideas beneficial to the organization, with concerns about ...

The calculus of variations is one of the oldest subjects in mathematics, and it is very much alive and still evolving. Besides its mathematical importance and its links to other branches of mathematics, such as geometry or differential equations, it is widely used in physics, engineering, economics and biology.This book serves both as a guide to the expansive existing literature and as an aid to the non-specialist ¿ mathematicians, physicists,...

Achievable energy densities dominate important future research activities on battery technology. This book deduces in detail the future options for energy density enhancement of rechargeable battery cells and complete batteries. It connects rechargeability to energy density limits and gives a detailed argumentation on how and when battery energy densities will achieve their inherent limits.This work provides key insights for the future market ...

Analytical chemistry is a cornerstone of modern chemistry and many of the traditional techniques remain in use, albeit now mostly in automated form. The cognitive and practical skills developed in analytical work has ensured its inclusion in all chemistry programs worldwide. While laboratory work by its nature incorporates the cognitive and psychomotor learning domains, it does not always fully include the affective domain. This can be often a...

Financial fraud is a serious and seemingly intractable problem. Financial scandals regularly punctuate newspaper headlines and regulators and auditors appear bereft of effective responses. But has this always been the case? This book quantifies financial crime in the UK using three centuries of data. It demonstrates how financial fraud and scandal vary according to systematic economic and institutional arrangements. In doing so, it retells the...

Human Resource Management in Singapore -- The Complete Guide covers a wide spectrum of human resource management topics in five volumes: Employment Management, Work and Remuneration, Employee Benefits, Performance and Development, and Employee Conduct and Relations. In every chapter, the WHY, WHAT and HOW are presented lucidly. The books are a must-have GPS for any human resource practitioner in Singapore. Students, academics and bosses into h...

This book presents some new models and methods in the context of dynamical portfolio optimization. It encapsulates the authors' recent progress in their research on several interesting, featured issues of dynamic portfolio optimization problems with default contagion, tracking benchmark, consumption habit, and model uncertainty.For the sake of the reader's convenience, preliminary knowledge on stochastic analysis and stochastic control are sum...

This monograph elucidates and extends many theorems and conjectures in analytic number theory and algebraic asymptotic analysis via the natural notions of degree and logexponential degree. The Riemann hypothesis, for example, is equivalent to the statement that the degree of the function π(x) - li(x) is 1/2, where π(x) is the prime counting function and li(x) is the logarithmic integral function. Part 1 of the text is a survey of analytic numb...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is extensively used in scientific research nowadays and has reshaped the practice in academia, industry, business, cybersecurity, etc. However, this revolution has not touched organic chemistry, the field appreciably frozen in its methods, until the last few years.This book is the first to introduce the contemporary AI-driven computerization of organic laboratory. It is designed to be a basic practical guide that i...

The compendium provides an introduction to the theory of deep learning, from basic principles of neural network modeling and optimization to more advanced topics of neural networks as Gaussian processes, neural tangent and information theory.This unique reference text complements a largely missing theoretical introduction to neural networks without being overwhelmingly technical in a level accessible to upper-level undergraduate engineering st...

This book will help registrars develop their learning for the FRCP part 1 exam which all haematology trainees are required to pass during training. The exam is a two-paper exam with multiple choice questions as well as essays. There are over 100+ guidelines for registrars to learn and this book has all of them in one place described in a succinct manner.There are also multiple gaps and other areas of learning which the guidelines do not cover....

This book focuses on a selection of analytical methods enabling the investigation of solution complexation equilibria, providing information on the speciation (stoichiometry and in some instances structure of the formed species) but also allowing the measurement of thermodynamic parameters (equilibrium constants, reaction enthalpy and entropy). The seven chapters, authored by eminent practitioners in their field, cover both the theoretical and...

This unique comprehensive compendium provides extensive studies on reversible cellular automata (RCAs), exhibiting a wide range of interesting phenomena similar to the Game-of-Life, a well-known irreversible CA.The useful reference text also introduces innovative approaches to constructing universal computers in a reversible cellular space. Numerous figures are included to illustrate the evolution of RCA configurations, and to elucidate theore...

This book reflects on work done through the Managing Extreme Technological Risk (METR) project, a pioneering research programme within the Centre for the Study of Existential Risk. METR has been both an exercise in 'academic engineering' to address major global challenges, and a research programme that extends beyond traditional academic outputs, to methodological development, and innovative forms of expert engagement and outreach.Managing Ext...
