The Lighthouse Function of Social Law
This is the conference book for the XIV European Regional Congress of the International Society for Labour and Social Security Law, dedicated to the interactions between social law and other areas of law. In recent years, labour law and social security law have been subject to various reforms and developments. Social law is however not an isolated domain but rather interacts with other fields, often even functioning as a guide or giving direction to those lost at sea. In other words: serving as a lighthouse. The key aspect addressed in this book is the existence of a connection between social law sensu stricto (labour law and social security law) and other areas of law. Pursuing an inter- an...
Optimization and Optimal Control
Optimization and optimal control are the main tools in decision making. Because of their numerous applications in various disciplines, research in these areas is accelerating at a rapid pace. “Optimization and Optimal Control: Theory and Applications” brings together the latest developments in these areas of research as well as presents applications of these results to a wide range of real-world problems. This volume can serve as a useful resource for researchers, practitioners, and advanced graduate students of mathematics and engineering working in research areas where results in optimization and optimal control can be applied.
Wie die Zeit vergeht – APARIUZ XXV
Der XXV. Jubiläumsband der Schriftenreihe APARIUZ steht unter dem Leitthema «Wie die Zeit vergeht». In elf Beiträgen reflektieren Nachwuchsforschende der Universität Zürich aktuelle Themen zur Temporalität in der Rechtswissenschaft. Die Beiträge analysieren neue Herausforderungen, zeigen historische Entwicklungen auf, fragen, ob die bekannten Lösungen noch zeitgemäss sind, und ordnen zeitliche Abläufe von Verfahren ein. Abgerundet wird der Band durch zwei Gastbeiträge.
Konvergente Konstruktionen
Im 20. Jahrhundert wurden weltweit etwa 50 000 Staudämme gebaut. Sie veränderten Landschaften grundlegend und irreversibel, sie regulierten das Leben von Millionen von Menschen. Benjamin Brendel arbeitet in seiner Globalgeschichte dieser riesigen Infrastrukturprojekte heraus, dass deren Erfolg und Sicherheit - heute gelten sie als Kraftwerke zur Gewinnung "grüner" oder "blauer" Energie - zusammen mit den Bauwerken selbst konstruiert wurden. Seine Fallbeispiele - der Grand-Coulee-Damm in den USA (1933 - 1941), der Damm von Mequinenza in Spanien (1955 - 1961) und der Assuan-Damm in Ägypten (1960 - 1971) - belegen darüber hinaus, dass Dämme unabhängig von politischen Systemen als Herrschaftsinstrumente fungierten.
Introduction to Control Systems
This book is written for use as a text in an introductory course in control systems. The classical as well as the state space approach is included and integrated as much as possible. The first part of the book deals with analysis in the time domain. All the graphical techniques are presented in one chapter and the latter part of the book deals with some advanced material. It is intended that the student should already be familiar with Laplace transformations and have had an introductory course in circuit analysis or vibration theory. To provide the student with an understanding of correlation concepts in control theory, a new chapter dealing with stochastic inputs has been added. Also Appendix\A has been significantly expanded to cover the theory of Laplace transforms and z-transforms. The book includes worked examples and problems for solution and an extensive bibliography as a guide for further reading.
Quantitative Fund Management
The First Collection That Covers This Field at the Dynamic Strategic and One-Period Tactical Levels. Addressing the imbalance between research and practice, Quantitative Fund Management presents leading-edge theory and methods, along with their application in practical problems encountered in the fund management industry. A Current Snapshot of State-of-the-Art Applications of Dynamic Stochastic Optimization Techniques to Long-Term Financial Planning - The first part of the book initially looks at how the quantitative techniques of the equity industry are shifting from basic Markowitz mean-variance portfolio optimization to risk management and trading applications. This section also explores ...
Building a Common Past
How did a kremlin, a fortified monastery or a wooden church in Russia become part of the heritage of the entire world? Corinne Geering traces the development of international cooperation in conservation since the 1960s, highlighting the role of experts and sites from the Soviet Union and later the Russian Federation in UNESCO and ICOMOS. Despite the ideological divide, the notion of world heritage gained momentum in the decades following World War II. Divergent interests at the local, national and international levels had to be negotiated when shaping the Soviet and Russian cultural heritage displayed to the world. The socialist discourse of world heritage was re-evaluated during perestroika and re-integrated as UNESCO World Heritage in a new state and international order in the 1990s.
Optimal Control with Engineering Applications
This book introduces a variety of problem statements in classical optimal control, in optimal estimation and filtering, and in optimal control problems with non-scalar-valued performance criteria. Many example problems are solved completely in the body of the text. All chapter-end exercises are sketched in the appendix. The theoretical part of the book is based on the calculus of variations, so the exposition is very transparent and requires little mathematical rigor.
