The disease that came to be called acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) was first identified in the summer of 1981. By that time, nearly 100, 000 persons in the United States may have been infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By the time the routes of transmission were clearly identified and HIV was established as the cause of AIDS in 1983, over 300, 000 people may have been infected. That number has continued to increase, wi...

In the terminal phase of the ACORD project, the idea of documenting relevant results and perspectives grew among most of the involved partners. This book is the outcome of the idea. It completes in a more theoretically perspective the final technical documentation of the project (see p. 6 footnote 1) which is mainly focussed in the description of the integrated demonstrator and of each of its modules. The reader will find in chapter 1 a brief ...

Robert Smithson Unearthed: Drawings, Collages, Writings, the first full survey of this artist's work, reevaluates its larger resonance and its place in the historical development of recent art. Eugenie Tsai's re-presentation of the work of Smithson expands our understanding of his achievement. Looking beyond the Minimalist structures and the earthworks for which she is best known, she explores his intellectual and aesthetic roots, his early im...

It is probably fair to say that there does not exist a unique and generally accepted not ion of justice. Even if one confines oneself to economic justice one can still get many answers to the question of how justice - henceforth we shall use the term "distributive justice" ­ should be defined and characterized. This may be disappointing for the outside observer but one can also view this as achallenge, at least as long as one thinks that distr...

Like the first three volumes, published in 1981, 1984 and 1987 and met with a lively response, the present volume is collecting contributions stressed on methodology or successful industrial applications. The papers are classified under three main headings, sampling inspection, process quality control and experimental design. In the first group there are nine papers on acceptance sampling. The second large group of papers deal with control cha...

Neural Network Dynamics is the latest volume in the Perspectives in Neural Computing series. It contains papers presented at the 1991 Workshop on Complex Dynamics in Neural Networks, held at IIASS in Vietri, Italy. The workshop encompassed a wide range of topics in which neural networks play a fundamental role, and aimed to bridge the gap between neural computation and computational neuroscience. The papers - which have been updated where nece...

Experts in operations research and developers of software application systems have been treading separate paths for many years. It is urgently necessary to reset this course so that the demanding requirements of variousCIM concepts can be realized. This is specially relevant for computer-based stock management. Both authors, with a number of years of practical experience behind them, have written this book with this objective in mind. T...

David Storey is a writer who genuinely extends the territory of drama" (Guardian)The Contractor: "A subtle and poetic parable about the nature and joy of skilled work, the meaning of community and the effect of its loss" (Observer), Home: "about the solitude and dislocation of madness and...the decline of Britain itself...part of the play's appeal is that Storey leaves it to us to draw our own conclusions...a play that contains within itself t...

Dieses Buch erweitert unser Vokabular um zwei neue Wörter. - Das erste, ein in Japan wohlbekannter Begriff, SANPAKU, beschreibt einen Zustand, in dem zwischen Pupille und unterem Augenlid das Weiße des Auges zu sehen ist, wenn die betreffende Person ihren Blick direkt nach vorne richtet. Dies, so lernen wir rasch, hat die Bedeutung eines schweren Falles von körperlichem und geistigem Ungleichgewicht. Der SANPAKU-Mensch hat keine Verbindung me...

The purpose of this book is to develop neural nets as a strong theory for both brains and machines. The theory is developed in close correlation with the biology of the neuron and the properties of human reasoning. This approach implies the following: - Updating the biology of the artificialneuron. The neurosciences have experienced a tremendous development in the last 50 years. One of the main purposes of the present work is toincorpo...

The subject of this book is Lagrange, Hermite and Birkhoff (lacunary Hermite) interpolation by multivariate algebraic polynomials. It unifies and extends a new algorithmic approach to this subject which was introduced and developed by G.G. Lorentz and the author. One particularly interesting feature of this algorithmic approach is that it obviates the necessity of finding a formula for the Vandermonde determinant of a multivariate interpolatio...
