Nutrition for a Better Life
The immense progress in the various fields of research in life sciences allows us to see the connection between nutrition and health in a different light. We can effectively improve our health and our quality of life by redesigning out diet on a scientific basis. Health will become the most decisive innovation-factor within the food industry. While in the previous 40 years convenience was the main source of value added, the greatest value added in the coming 20 years will derive from products with an additional benefit for our health. The food industry with its cutting-edge technology will play a decisive role in health-improvement for entire population groups. The scientifically-based nutrition for health will offer an effective and cost-saving personalized diet which in the future will prevent and administer to the acute and chronic diseases of the 21st century.

Business in a Changing Society
On the occasion of Peter Brabeck-Letmathe's 70th birthday a group of his friends invited 31 authors to contribute to this festschrift, honoring his great achievements in providing business leadership and contributing to public dialogue on important issues. Leaders from politics, academia, civil society and business who know Peter Brabeck draw a fascinating, multifaceted picture of the quality, speed and nature of the ongoing and often accelerating change taking place in society, technology and markets. It is a change that is not only relevant for him as chairman of Nestlé, but also for citizens and businesses around the world today, and in years to come.

Emissions Trading and Business
Emissions trading (ET) challenges business managers in an entirely new manner, changing the criteria by which environmental policy steers management decisions from hierarchical to monetary. The 24 contributions to this volume discuss ET theoretically and empirically in these broad topic areas: 1) Institutional design, decision making and innovation; 2) Investment and management strategies; 3) ET and business administration and 4) Effects of existing and emerging ET schemes.
Emissions Trading
Emissions trading challenges the management of companies in an entirely new manner. Most importantly it shifts the mode of governance of environmental policy from hierarchy to market. The contributions in this book discuss the theoretical implications of different institutional designs of emissions trading schemes. They review schemes implemented in the US and Europe, and evaluate the range of investment decisions and corporate strategies resulting from the new policy framework.
Operations Research Proceedings 2014
This book contains a selection of refereed papers presented at the "International Conference on Operations Research (OR 2014)", which took place at RWTH Aachen University, Germany, September 2-5, 2014. More than 800 scientists and students from 47 countries attended OR 2014 and presented more than 500 papers in parallel topical streams, as well as special award sessions. The theme of the conference and its proceedings is "Business Analytics and Optimization".
Emissions Trading
Emissions trading challenges the management of companies in an entirely new manner: Not only does it, like other market-based environmental policy instruments, allow for a bigger flexibility in management decisions concerning emission issues. More importantly, it shifts the mode of governance of environmental policy from hierarchy to market. But how is this change reflected in management processes, decisions and organizational structures? The contributions in this book discuss the theoretical implications of different institutional designs of emissions trading schemes, review schemes that have been implemented in the US and Europe, and evaluate the range of investment decisions and corporate strategies which have resulted from the new policy framework.

Industrial Internet of Things
This book develops the core system science needed to enable the development of a complex industrial internet of things/manufacturing cyber-physical systems (IIoT/M-CPS). Gathering contributions from leading experts in the field with years of experience in advancing manufacturing, it fosters a research community committed to advancing research and education in IIoT/M-CPS and to translating applicable science and technology into engineering practice. Presenting the current state of IIoT and the concept of cybermanufacturing, this book is at the nexus of research advances from the engineering and computer and information science domains. Readers will acquire the core system science needed to transform to cybermanufacturing that spans the full spectrum from ideation to physical realization.
