Cleveland's rich history includes serving as the last Cherokee Indian capital in the East and as the headquarters for eight Pentecostal denominations. The images in Postcard History Series: Cleveland depict the residences, businesses, churches, motels, and schools of the area. Most of the cards have been carefully selected from Mitchell T. Kinder's collection, the largest known postcard accumulation featuring Cleveland and Bradley County, totaling over 500 cards.
Dem Aufruf »Eine Geschichte für Klaus« sind viele Kollegen, Freunde und PERRY RHODAN-Fans gefolgt, um dem Chefredakteur der PERRY RHODAN-Serie – Klaus N. Frick – ein würdiges Geschenk zum 60. Geburtstag zu machen. Namhafte Autoren und Autorinnen widmen ihm ihre ganz persönlichen fantastischen Geschichten. Mal ist er Teil davon, mal wird er am Rande erwähnt, und mitunter spielt der Raumfahrer Perry Rhodan darin eine wichtige Rolle. So entstand eine Anthologie mit Storys aus unterschiedlichen Genres, versehen mit farbigen Illustrationen sowie Fotos von Klaus N. Frick aus den letzten Jahrzehnten. So ein Geburtstagsgeschenk bekommt nicht jeder. Der Titel des Buches ist Zitat aus der PERRY-RHODAN-Serie, das bei den Fans längst zum geflügelten Wort geworden ist. Welcher Spruch wäre passender für jemanden, der seit Jahrzehnten die Richtung der Serie bestimmt und beinahe alles darüber weiß? Mit einem Titelbild von Thomas Rabenstein.
This issue covers papers relating to advanced semiconductor products that are true representatives of nanoelectronics have reached below 100 nm. Depending on the application, the nanosystem may consist of one or more of the following types of functional components: electronic, optical, magnetic, mechanical, biological, chemical, energy sources, and various types of sensing devices. As long as one or more of these functional devices is in 1-100 nm dimensions, the resultant system can be defined as nanosystem. Papers will be in all areas of dielectric issues in nanosystems. In addition to traditional areas of semiconductor processing and packaging of nanoelectronics, emphasis will be placed on areas where multifunctional device integration (through innovation in design, materials, and processing at the device and system levels) will lead to new applications of nanosystems.
"We regularly read and hear exhortations for women to take up positions in STEM. The call comes from both government and private corporate circles, and it also emanates from enthusiasts for free and open source software (FOSS), i.e. software that anyone is free to use, copy, study, and change in any way. Ironically, rate of participation in FOSS-related work is far lower than in other areas of computing. A 2002 European Union study showed that fewer than 2 percent of software developers in the FOSS world were women. How is it that an intellectual community of activists so open in principle to one and all -a community that prides itself for its enlightened politics and its commitment to social change - should have such a low rate of participation by women? This book is an ethnographic investigation of efforts to improve the diversity in software and hackerspace communities, with particular attention paid to gender diversity advocacy"--
This much needed, comprehensive and modern reference on display technology, illumination sources and color imaging focuses on visual effects and how reproduced images are best matched to human visual features. As such, it teaches readers how to exploit the knowledge of human color information processing to design usable, ergonomic, and pleasing displays or visual environments. The contents describe design principles and methods to optimize self-luminous visual technologies for the human user, including modern still and motion image displays, and indoor light sources. Design principles and methods are derived from the knowledge of the human visual system, with a special emphasis on color vision, color cognition, color harmony, color preference and visually evoked emotions. The expert authors include the most important and latest applications of the design principles and methods, forming a comprehensive view of human color information processing from the receptors through the retina via high-level visual perception right up to the level of cognition, preference, harmony, as well as visually evoked emotions. This book is included in the Wiley SID Series.
