Color Management

Springer, 2008

The book describes color management for the print production with a focus on implementing standards for separation, soft proof, contract proof, data delivery and printing.

The basics and strategies are targeted at setting up vendor-independent color management workflows which can easily be realized with leading applications from e.g. Adobe,...

Computable Models of the Law: Languages, Dialogues, Games, Ontologies (Lecture Notes in Computer Science / Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence)

Springer, 2008

Information technology has now pervaded the legal sector, and the very modern concepts of e-law and e-justice show that automation processes are ubiquitous. European policies on transparency and information society, in particular, require the use of technology and its steady improvement.

Some of the revised papers presented in this book...

Communities of Practice: Fostering Peer-to-Peer Learning and Informal Knowledge Sharing in the Work Place

Springer, 2008

The book offers two themes: one is about Communities of Practice (CoPs) and learning, the other is about social informatics approaches. First, in order to facilitate designing effective learning environments both online and offline, this book calls attention to the importance of CoPs to facilitate informal learning as part of professional...

Modelling Stochastic Fibrous Materials with Mathematica® (Engineering Materials and Processes)

Springer, 2008

Recent developments in the use of electrospun fibrous materials, for application as scaffolds for tissue engineering and in the application of carbon fibrous materials in fuel cells, has generated new interest in the dependence of the properties and structure of these materials on those of their constituent fibres. Modelling Stochastic Fibrous...

MATLAB Codes for Finite Element Analysis: Solids and Structures (Solid Mechanics and Its Applications)

Springer, 2008

This book intend to supply readers with some MATLAB codes for finite element analysis of solids and structures.

After a short introduction to MATLAB, the book illustrates the finite element implementation of some problems by simple scripts and functions.

The following problems are discussed:

• Discrete systems,...

The Music of the Big Bang: The Cosmic Microwave Background and the New Cosmology (Astronomers' Universe)

Springer, 2008

The cosmic microwave background radiation is the afterglow of the big bang: a tenuous signal, more than 13 billion years old, which carries the answers to many of the questions about the nature of our Universe. It was serendipitously discovered in 1964, and thoroughly investigated in the last four decades by a large number of experiments. Two...

Multiobjective Optimization: Interactive and Evolutionary Approaches (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

Springer, 2008

Multiobjective optimization deals with solving problems having not only one, but multiple, often conflicting, criteria. Such problems can arise in practically every field of science, engineering and business, and the need for efficient and reliable solution methods is increasing. The task is challenging due to the fact that, instead of a single...

Molecular Catalysts for Energy Conversion (Springer Series in Materials Science)

Springer, 2008

The role of molecular catalysts for energy conversion grows more and more important since these have wide applications in fuel cells, electrochemical solar cells, artificial photo-syntheses, and so on. A firm strategy for their design and application is awaited to cope with the expeditious solution of the latest energy and environment issues. This...

Viruses and Nanotechnology (Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology)

Springer, 2008

Viral nanoparticles (VNPs) serve as excellent nanobuilding blocks for materials design and fabrication. The main advantages are their nanometer-range size, the propensity to self-assemble into monodisperse nanoparticles of discrete shape and size, the high degree of symmetry and polyvalency, the relative ease of producing large quantities, the...

Scaling Limits in Statistical Mechanics and Microstructures in Continuum Mechanics (Theoretical and Mathematical Physics)

Springer, 2008

Collective behavior in systems with many components, blow-ups with emergence of microstructures are proofs of the double, continuum and atomistic, nature of macroscopic systems, an issue which has always intrigued scientists and philosophers. Modern technologies have made the question more actual and concrete with recent, remarkable progresses also...

Security Engineering for Service-Oriented Architectures

Springer, 2008

While their basic principles and ideas are well understood and cogent from a conceptual perspective, the realization of interorganizational workflows and applications based on service-oriented architectures (SOAs) remains a complex task, and, especially when it comes to security, the implementation is still bound to low-level technical knowledge...

Danger Pay: Memoir of a Photojournalist in the Middle East, 1984-1994 (Focus on American History)

University of Texas Press, 2008

"A deeply felt and moving account from an enterprising and conscientious news photographer who worked the always-busy beat of the Middle East in the last, great days of film photography." Rod Nordland, Chief Foreign Correspondent, Newsweek

"Reading Danger Pay was a harrowing experience. Being a photojournalist...
