This book focuses on spatial planning – an important determinant of energy saving and renewable energy supply. Revealing the key driving forces for spatial development supporting the shift towards energy efficiency and renewable energy supplies, it shows the importance of integrated spatial and energy planning approaches for a timely and sustainable change of energy systems, thus supporting policies of climate protection. As operating within the context of renewable energy sources is becoming a major policy issue at the international, European and national level, spatial dimensions of renewable energy systems as well as challenges, barriers and opportunities in different spatial contexts b...
In the near future the appearance and spatial organization of urban and rural landscapes will be strongly influenced by the generation of renewable energy. One of the critical tasks will be the re-integration of these sustainable energy landscapes into the existing environment-which people value and want to preserve-in a socially fair, environmenta
This text tells the story of Paul Tillich's early theological development from his student days until the end of the First World War, set against the backdrop of church politics in Wilhelmine Germany and with particular reference to his early sermons.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Testing Software and Systems, ICTSS 2012, held in Aalborg, Denmark, in November 2012. The 16 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully selected from 48 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on testing in practice, test frameworks for distributed systems, testing of embedded systems, test optimization, and new testing methods.
Currently the writing on the subject is limited and comprises, for the most part, guidance documents and completed assessments.

Paul Tillich is exceptional in modern theologians that his distinctive and abundant understanding of the concept of life and spirit has the potential to engage with other disciplines, such as biology, psychology, cosmology and social science; and that his ontological understanding of “life as spirit” which is so crucial in the ecological consideration, is so complex and subtle that enables powerful and critical inter-religious dialogue in environmental ethics. This book argues that, despite the fact that Tillich did not engage in ecological and environmental theology directly, his abundant personal experience of nature-mysticism and intellectual understanding of the idea of nature rooted in his Lutheran and German idealist heritages and, more importantly, his ontological-pneumatological holistic and multi-dimensional conception of unifying and differentiated reality, perfectly and organically coupled with the theonomous vision of theology of culture, nature and morality is profoundly ecologically oriented.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Information Security, ISC 2010, held in Boca Raton, FL, USA, in October 2010.

The papers are organized in topical sections on attacks and analysis; analysis; authentication, PIR and content identification; privacy; malware, crimeware and code injection; intrusion detection; side channels; cryptography; smartphones; biometrics; cryptography, application; buffer overflow; and cryptography, theory.
Zwar hat Max Weber den Askesebegriff an prominenter Stelle in seinen religionssoziologischen Werken platziert – die wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit diesem Begriff ist hingegen bislang spärlich geblieben. Um diese Lücke zu schließen, werden in der Arbeit das Verständnis Webers von Askese und der Stellenwert des Begriffes in den Schriften »Die protestantische Ethik und der ›Geist‹ des Kapitalismus«, »Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft« sowie »Die Wirtschaftsethik der Weltreligionen« systematisch untersucht. Dabei werden auch seine theoretischen sowie methodischen Schriften mit in die Untersuchung einbezogen. Es wird überzeugend dargelegt, dass Webers Begriff der Askese im Zusammenhang mit zentralen Themen seines soziologischen Schaffens steht: Einerseits vermag es Weber anhand des Askesebegriffes seine Theorien zur kulturwissenschaftlichen Erkenntnis darzulegen, andererseits finden anhand dessen seine Auseinandersetzungen mit den Themen Lebensführung, Rationalisierung und der ›Entzauberung der Welt‹ statt.
