Security is probably the most critical factor for the development of the "Information Society". E-government, e-commerce, e-healthcare and all other e-activities present challenging security requirements that cannot be satisfied with current technology, except maybe if the citizens accept to waive their privacy, which is unacceptable ethically and socially. New progress is needed in security and privacy-preserving technologies. On these founda...

Physical Database Design Using Oracle correlates logical data models with the physical implementation structures that Oracle provides. It allows students to learn how to take logical data models and convert them into a series of data structures that permit fast and easy logical access to data. This textbook is targeted at undergraduate and graduate IS students studying to become the Oracle professionals of the near future. It is expected that ...

Palmyra reveals the fascinating history of the place known as "the Queen of Canal Towns." Vivid photographs highlight life as it was in this Wayne County community, which is visited by more than two hundred thousand people each year. Shown are military men and abolitionists, inventors and entrepreneurs, the founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Hill Cumorah, site of the largest outdoor theater production in the Uni...

The mention of Carver usually conjures up images of cranberries and brilliant red bogs. In the 1800s, immigrants from Finland and the Cape Verde Islands came to Carver as cranberry harvesters and later became prominent residents and owners of their own bogs. By 1940, more cranberries came from Carver than from any other town. While much of Carver's infrastructure and industry was driven by the berries, the discovery of iron ore and constructio...

The IFIP TC-10 Working Conference on Distributed and Parallel Embedded Systems (DIPES 2004) brings together experts from industry and academia to discuss recent developments in this important and growing field in the splendid city of Toulouse, France. The ever decreasing price/performance ratio of microcontrollers makes it economically attractive to replace more and more conventional mechanical or electronic control systems within many product...

The original "What Not to Wear" is offered by one of fashion's most enduringly stylish women.

A compendium of novel information on molecular-scale science and the application of nanocarbon, nanosilicon and biopolymer integrated nanosystems. During the 20th century, molecular-scale science and nanotechnology developed rapidly, leading to the construction of innovative materials - nanosystens from molecules (fullerenes), supramolecules (nanotubes, peapods, polymers, biopolymers (DNA, protein and their complexes) and semiconductor nano...

Interest in research on nanoscale materials is steadily increasing: nano-structured magnetic materials exhibit new and interesting physical properties, which cannot be found in the bulk. Many of these unique properties have great potential for technical applications in magneto-sensors, bio-sensors, magneto-electronics, data storage, magnetic heads of computer hard disks, single-electron devises, microwave electronic devices, etc. Current resea...

The brief length and focused coverage of" Human Evolution: An Illustrated Introduction" have made this best-selling textbook the ideal complement to any biology or anthropology course in which human evolution is taught. The text places human evolution in the context of humans as animals, while also showing the physical context of human evolution, including climate change and the impact of extinctions. Chapter introductions, numerous drawings a...

Der Tourismus im Alpenraum wird immer wieder äußerst zwiespältig gesehen. Er pendelt in der Oberflächendiskussion zwischen "Fluch" und "Segen" für die Region. Die quantitative Entwicklung der Touristenströme in den Alpen unterliegt in jüngster Zeit deutlichen Schwankungen, wobei eine Entwicklungsrichtung offen ist. Dies ist Anlass genug, die Touristifizierung alpiner Räume auf ihre Folgen und Effekte hin zu analysieren. Der vorliegende Band be...

In seinem Werk entwirft der deutsch-amerikanische Philosoph und Logiker Gotthard Günther (1900-1984) das Bild einer zukünftigen Weltgesellschaflt. Als Basis dienen ihm seine Erfahrungen als Emigrant im multikulturellen Amerika der 50er Jahre. Allerdings ist "Amerika!" bei ihm nicht nur wörtlich, sondern vor allem metaphorisch gemeint. Ausgehend von Spengler und Heidegger entwirft er eine globale Zukunftsperspektive, wie sie gegenwärtig in Teil...

Der wissenschaftliche Fortschritt ist unaufhaltsam. Seit der 2. Auflage hat es auf den Gebieten der Kosmetik und der Hygienemittel sowie der Nachbardisziplinen bedeutende Weiterentwicklungen gegeben. Für die Neuauflage wurden daher die Kapitel grundlegend überarbeitet und aktualisiert. Einen breiten Raum nehmen neue biochemische Erkenntnisse zu Vorgängen in der Haut, physikalische bzw. physikalisch-chemische Messmethoden zur Wirksamkeitsbesti...

This book is based on the work of a European partnership, whose members came together from Belgium England Finland Germany Portugal and Greece with the support of funding from the EU Socrates Programme. Our goal was to work collaboratively to generate new ways of thinking about the situation of people aged between 14 and 25 who are at risk of (or experiencing) social exclusion, set in the context of a unique international analysis of policies,...
