The Insecure Workforce
For the past two decades employment in Britain has been marked by a search for greater flexibility in the availability and use of labour. In recent years, however, there has been mounting concern at the costs of this trend and an appreciation that the consequence of a flexible labour market may be an insecure workforce, vulnerable to exploitation.
Cheaper by the Hour
How attorneys' work is deprofessionalized, downgraded, and controlled through part-time and temporary assignments.
Where Have All the Senior Women Gone?
Essential career guidance for corporate women with talent and ambition and advice for HR leaders on managing a diverse workforce; it sets out nine job assignments that every woman should have on her CV in order to lay the way for promotion and progression and insights into the lessons learned by the top senior women (and men) in business.
Accelerated Leadership Development
FINALIST: Business Book Awards 2018 - HR and Management Category In an increasingly volatile and complex world, it is crucial that organizations optimize leadership development so that employees in leadership positions have the right skills to operate successfully. Accelerated Leadership Development shows how HR and Learning and Development (L&D) professionals can accelerate the career progression of their top talent from entry level to senior executive roles. It covers the entire acceleration process: how to identify which individuals are right for accelerated leadership development, what roles are best suited for stretch assignments and how to avoid burnout. Packed with insights from HR ex...
Good Jobs, Bad Jobs
The economic boom of the 1990s veiled a grim reality: in addition to the growing gap between rich and poor, the gap between good and bad quality jobs was also expanding. The postwar prosperity of the mid-twentieth century had enabled millions of American workers to join the middle class, but as author Arne L. Kalleberg shows, by the 1970s this upward movement had slowed, in part due to the steady disappearance of secure, well-paying industrial jobs. Ever since, precarious employment has been on the rise—paying low wages, offering few benefits, and with virtually no long-term security. Today, the polarization between workers with higher skill levels and those with low skills and low wages i...
Enterprise Information Systems
This book contains the best papers of the 9th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (ICEIS 2007), held in the city of Funchal, Madeira (Portugal), organized by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC) and the University of Madeira, in collaboration with ACM/SIGMIS and AAAI. Furthermore, the conference was sponsored by the Por- guese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT). ICEIS has become a major point of contact between research scientists, engineers and practitioners in the area of business applications of information systems. This year, five simultaneous tracks were held, covering different aspects related to ...
Multiple Disadvantage in Employment
We know a great deal about the difficulties faced by particular groups on the search for work, whether the groups are defined by age, sex, ethnicity, location or whatever. However, until now, the effects of multiplicity itself have not been analysed in any detail. This report provides a systematic analysis of the effects of combinations of disadvantages on the labour market prospects of men and women in Britain. Using data from the Labour Force Survey, it considers disadvantages associated with: age, sex, family structure, educational qualifications, disability, ethnic group, housing tenure and local unemployment levels. Rather than look at the effects of each of these problems in isolation, this report documents the interactions between them to show the cumulative effects of multiple disadvantage.
Intelligent Big Multimedia Databases
Multimedia databases address a growing number of commercially important applications such as media on demand, surveillance systems and medical systems. The book presents essential and relevant techniques and algorithms to develop and implement large multimedia database systems.The traditional relational database model is based on a relational algebra that is an offshoot of first-order logic and of the algebra of sets. The simple relational model is not powerful enough to address multimedia data. Because of this, multimedia databases are categorized into many major areas. Each of these areas are now so extensive that a major understanding of the mathematical core concepts requires the study of different fields such as information retrieval, digital image processing, feature extraction, fractals, machine learning, neuronal networks and high-dimensional indexing. This book unifies the essential concepts and recent algorithms into a single comprehensive volume.
Machine Learning - A Journey To Deep Learning: With Exercises And Answers
This unique compendium discusses some core ideas for the development and implementation of machine learning from three different perspectives — the statistical perspective, the artificial neural network perspective and the deep learning methodology.The useful reference text represents a solid foundation in machine learning and should prepare readers to apply and understand machine learning algorithms as well as to invent new machine learning methods. It tells a story outgoing from a perceptron to deep learning highlighted with concrete examples, including exercises and answers for the students.Related Link(s)
