The financial crisis as well as new laws and regulations following it has lead to an increasing need for Internal Audit. Enhancing the risk management systems and giving assurance to the management are a major issue on the one hand. On the other hand cost cutting has also affected Internal Audit Departments. Thus more with less will become a necessity for Internal Auditors. The ability to work smarter will increase in importance over the coming year. Sharing information and knowledge between internal audit teams will be crucial. The experts of the ECIIA offer you insights and their knowledge about: Internal Audit Standards & Professional Practice FrameworkCorporate Governance & Risk ManagementInternal Audit PracticesFuture of Internal AuditingAn excellent overview about recent developments and requirements for European Internal Auditors!
This volume presents the peer-reviewed proceedings of the international conference Imaging, Vision and Learning Based on Optimization and PDEs (IVLOPDE), held in Bergen, Norway, in August/September 2016. The contributions cover state-of-the-art research on mathematical techniques for image processing, computer vision and machine learning based on optimization and partial differential equations (PDEs). It has become an established paradigm to formulate problems within image processing and computer vision as PDEs, variational problems or finite dimensional optimization problems. This compact yet expressive framework makes it possible to incorporate a range of desired properties of the solution...
This book is an outgrowth of the conference “Regulators IV: An International Conference on Arithmetic L-functions and Differential Geometric Methods” that was held in Paris in May 2016. Gathering contributions by leading experts in the field ranging from original surveys to pure research articles, this volume provides comprehensive coverage of the front most developments in the field of regulator maps. Key topics covered are: • Additive polylogarithms • Analytic torsions • Chabauty-Kim theory • Local Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch theorems • Periods • Syntomic regulator The book contains contributions by M. Asakura, J. Balakrishnan, A. Besser, A. Best, F. Bianchi, O. Gregory, A. Langer, B. Lawrence, X. Ma, S. Müller, N. Otsubo, J. Raimbault, W. Raskin, D. Rössler, S. Shen, N. Triantafi llou, S. Ünver and J. Vonk.
The present collection is the very first contribution of this type in the field of sparse recovery. Compressed sensing is one of the important facets of the broader concept presented in the book, which by now has made connections with other branches such as mathematical imaging, inverse problems, numerical analysis and simulation. The book consists of four lecture notes of courses given at the Summer School on "Theoretical Foundations and Numerical Methods for Sparse Recovery" held at the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics in Linz, Austria, in September 2009. This unique collection will be of value for a broad community and may serve as a textbook for graduate courses. From the contents: "Compressive Sensing and Structured Random Matrices" by Holger Rauhut "Numerical Methods for Sparse Recovery" by Massimo Fornasier "Sparse Recovery in Inverse Problems" by Ronny Ramlau and Gerd Teschke "An Introduction to Total Variation for Image Analysis" by Antonin Chambolle, Vicent Caselles, Daniel Cremers, Matteo Novaga and Thomas Pock
This timely book provides a holistic analysis of the exchange of information procedures for tax purposes within the EU from an administrative law and tax law perspective. It explores how procedural and substantive taxpayers’ rights are affected by exchange of information processes, and rigorously examines the effectiveness of the current legal framework.
"This publication offers practical advice and inspiration for ensuring that nature in the city is more than infrastructure--that it also promotes well-being and creates an emotional connection to the earth among urban residents. Divided into six parts, the Handbook begins by introducing key ideas, literature, and theory about biophilic urbanism. Chapters highlight urban biophilic innovations in more than a dozen global cities. The final part concludes with lessons on how to advance an agenda for urban biophilia and an extensive list of resources."--Publisher.
An in-depth analysis of various aspects of multilateral cooperation in tax law Tax evasion and aggressive tax planning causing base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) has been a widely discussed topic among academics and tax policy makers over the past decades. Increasing globalization and digitalization have contributed to the intensification of this issue in recent years. At the same time, states continue to largely insist on their sovereignty in the area of tax law. However, due to their cross-border nature, issues related to BEPS are shared problems among the states and can typically not be solved by a single nation. Therefore, multilateral cooperation represents an option to build a bri...
This book contains proceedings of the research conference on algebraic K-theory which took place in Poznan, Poland in September 1995. The conference concluded the activity of the algebraic K-theory seminar held at the Adam Mickiewicz University in the academic year 1994-1995. Talks at the conference covered a wide range of current research activities in algebraic K-theory. In particular, the following topics were covered * K-theory of fields and rings of integers * K-theory of elliptic and modular curves * Theory of motives, motivic cohomology, Beilinson conjectures * algebraic K-theory of topological spaces, topological Hochschild homology and cyclic homology. With contributions by leading experts in the field, this book provides a look at the state of current research in algebraic K-theory.
The NATO Advanced Study Institute on "The Arithmetic and Geometry of Algebraic Cycles" was held at the Banff Centre for Conferences in Banff (Al berta, Canada) from June 7 until June 19, 1998. This meeting was organized jointly with Centre de Recherches Mathematiques (CRM), Montreal, as one of the CRM Summer schools which take place annually at the Banff Center. The conference also served as the kick-off activity of the CRM 1998-99 theme year on Number Theory and Arithmetic Geometry. There were 109 participants who came from 17 countries: Belgium, Canada, China, France, Germany, Greece, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, - mania, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the ...
