The electrification of shared fleets offers numerous benefits, including the reduction of local emissions of pollutants, which leads to ecological improvements such as the improvement of air quality. Electric Vehicles in Shared Fleets considers a holistic concept for a socio-technical system with a focus on three core areas: integrated mobility solutions, business models for economic viability, and information systems that support decision-making for the successful implementation and operation of electric vehicles in shared fleets.In this book, we examine different aspects within these areas including multimodal mobility, grid integration of electric vehicles, shared autonomous electric vehicle services, relocation strategies in shared fleets, and the challenge of battery life of electric vehicles. Insights into the future of transport are provided, which is predicted to be shared, autonomous, and electric. This will require the expansion of the charging infrastructure to provide adequate premises for the electrification of transportation and to create market demand.
Increasingly, cruise operators are utilising information and communication technologies (ICTs) to improve service-effectiveness and process efficiency, both on- and off-board. Therefore, it is worth initiating a discussion on the potential and challenges ICTs entail for both cruise operators’ back-offices and for cruisers’ consumption experiences. This book documents the proceedings of the 1st e-Cruising Conference (Bremerhaven, Germany), which was aimed at discussing the possibilities and applicability of ICTs and mobile services in various aspects of cruise operations. Following a rigorous double-blind review, the best papers were chosen to be incorporated in this volume.

How can a group be empowered to improve their ability to make decisions while also reinforcing the group’s intended values, beliefs, and behaviors? Like positive reinforcement, which introduces a desirable or pleasant stimulus after a behavior has been completed and has been found to be effective for reinforcing such behavior, serious games introduce the behavior as a pleasant experience through engagement and entertainment. Where positive reinforcement relies heavily on the willpower of the subject to complete the behavior on their own, serious games introduce a motivational factor from the beginning of the behavior. Serious games are designed for purposes other than entertainment, such a...

Das Handbuch stellt Grundlagen, Anwendungen und Perspektiven digitalisierten Lernens und Lehrens mit mobilen Endgeräten vor. Es behandelt theoretische Bezüge von Mobile Learning ebenso wie praktische Einsätze mobiler Endgeräte. Technologische Grundlagen, didaktische Designs mit Lernimplikationen und Einsatzmöglichkeiten von Mobile Learning in den verschiedenen Bildungskontexten – Schule, Hochschule, Aus- und Weiterbildung – werden erläutert genauso wie grundlegende Bestimmungen des Datenschutzes und des Copyrights. Das Handbuch spannt damit einen Bogen von der historischen Entwicklung bis hin zu zukünftigen Aussichten von Mobile Learning. Die Beiträge von 91 Autorinnen und Autoren fassen die zentralen wissenschaftlichen und für die Praxis relevanten Erkenntnisse über Mobile Learning zusammen, machen Potenziale und Veränderungen durch die zunehmende digitale Mobilität deutlich und geben Impulse für zukünftige Gestaltungsaufgaben hinsichtlich der Digitalisierung im Bildungsbereich.
İlkokul çağlarından itibaren müzik ve halk oyunculuğu serüvenine başlayan Tuna; ilerleyen yıllarda hem halk oyunculuğu hem de müzik kulvarlarında uzmanlaşarak iki alanda da çok önemli başarılara imza atmıştır. Araştırma sürecinde alan uzmanlarıyla yaptığımız bütün kişisel görüşmelerde, Tuna’nın usta icracılığına yapılan takdirlerin hemen ardından mütevazi ve engin gönüllü kişiliğinin ısrarla vurgulanması, sanatçının çok yönlü sanat çalışmalarının yanı sıra; sanatı sadece bir iş olarak görmediğini aynı zamanda bir yaşam şekli olarak hayatına da tatbik ettiğinin bir kanıtı olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Kitapta; Kenan TUNA’nın hayatı, sanat çalışmaları ve araştırmaları, çeşitli fotoğraflar ve arşiv belgeleri ile ayrıntılı bir şekilde sunulmuştur.
Analysing developments in digital technologies and institutional changes, this book provides an overview of the current frenetic state of transformation within the global automobile industry. An ongoing transition brought about by the relocation of marketing, design and production centres to emerging economies, and experimentation with new mobility systems such as electrical, autonomous vehicles, this process poses the question as to how original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and newcomers can remain competitive and ensure sustainability. With contributions from specialists in the automobile sector, this collection examines the shifts in power and geographical location occurring in the industry, and outlines the key role that public policy has in generating innovation in entrepreneurial states. Offering useful insights into the challenges facing emerging economies in their attempts to grow within the automobile industry, this book will provide valuable reading for those researching internationalization and emerging markets, business strategy and more specifically, the automotive industry.
