International Retailing Plans and Strategies in Asia
Learn the how, when, and why of entering Asian markets Retailers entering Asia are faced with not only a consumer and retail culture very different from their own, but with a variety of cultures that vary greatly among countries within the continent. International Retailing Plans and Strategies in Asia examines the strategies of Western retailers entering into Asian markets and provides specific case examples showing why some companies have failed in Asia—as well as factors that helped others succeed. Important concepts for international retailers exploring Asian markets are clearly explained, and the material is particularly relevant to current WTO and UNCTAD debates about the globalizati...
Inside the Mind of Toyota
Winner of a Shingo Research and Professional Publication AwardToyota's sustained growth attracts the attention of economists and industrialists around the world eager to learn the secrets of Toyota's lasting success. In Inside the Mind of Toyota: Management Principles for Enduring Growth, Satoshi Hino examines the source of Toyota's strength: the fundamental thinking and management structures that lie beneath the creation of its famed Toyota Production System. From the perspective of a professional with 30 years experience in the auto industry, Hino presents a fresh and detailed analysis of Toyota's essential management system, from its very beginnings into the 21st century. The ultimate goa...
Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention - MICCAI 2000
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2000, held in Pittsburgh, PA, USA in October 2000.The 136 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 194 submissions. The book offers topical sections on neuroimaging and neuroscience, segmentation, oncology, medical image analysis and visualization, registration, surgical planning and simulation, endoscopy and laparoscopy, cardiac image analysis, vascular image analysis, visualization, surgical navigation, medical robotics, plastic and craniofacial surgery, and orthopaedics.
Medical Imaging and Augmented Reality
The 4th International Workshop on Medical Imaging and Augmented Reality, MIAR 2008, was held at the University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan during August 1–2, 2008. The goal of MIAR 2008 was to bring together researchersin medical imaging and intervention to present state-of-the-art developments in this ever-growing research area. Rapid technical advances in medical imaging, including its gr- ing application in drug/gene therapy and invasive/interventional procedures, have attracted signi?cant interest in the close integration of research in the life sciences, medicine, physical sciences, and engineering. Current research is also motivated by the fact that medical imaging is moving increasingly ...
Japanese Management in Change
Following the burst of the “economic bubble” in the 1990s, many Japanese companies were required to reform their management systems. Changes in corporate governance were widely discussed during that decade in studies on “Japanese management.” These discussions have resulted in little progress, however, since Americanization became the dominant discourse concerning governance and the management system. There have been few studies conducted from an academic point of view on the internal aspects of organizations that practice traditional Japanese management theory. This book examines how, and the degree to which, the development of market principles accompanying the advances of globaliz...
Clinical Image-Based Procedures. From Planning to Intervention
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the International Workshop on Clinical Image-based Procedures: From Planning to Intervention, CLIP 2012, held in Nice, France, in conjunction with the 15th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2012. This successful workshop was a productive and exciting forum for the discussion and dissemination of clinically tested, state-of-the-art methods for image-based planning, monitoring and evaluation of medical procedures. The 16 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions.
Computational Science and Its Applications - ICCSA 2003
The three-volume set, LNCS 2667, LNCS 2668, and LNCS 2669, constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications, ICCSA 2003, held in Montreal, Canada, in May 2003. The three volumes present more than 300 papers and span the whole range of computational science from foundational issues in computer science and mathematics to advanced applications in virtually all sciences making use of computational techniques. The proceedings give a unique account of recent results in computational science.
