Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In most industries, innovation has become the most critical success factor to compete: thanks to the rapid change in technology, shortened product lifecycles and market globalization, executives' focus on new product development activities has become even more stronger. On the one hand, the simultaneous effect of (external) supplier and (internal) purchasing involvement into NPD has seldom been tested, and the great part of relevant studies is based on case studies rather than large - scale surveys. On the other, scholars' recommendations are sometimes contradictory, with authors exalting benefits of supplier involvement, while others remarking its criticalities. Within this scenario, the present work aims to investigate the role of supplier and purchasing department onto the firm generation of innovation at the category level; a consistent theoretical framework has been designed and tested using data collected from a survey including 603 companies worldwide. 52 pp. Englisch.

It was called Lou Go, which means 'Lou Language' in Japanese. Lou Go became popular among Japanese teenagers and young adults, which lasted for approximately one year. Lou Go's characteristics are analysed through several Lou Go texts and Katakana texts both quantitatively and qualitatively. Although both Lou Go and Katakana texts share similarities in the sentence structure and the use of borrowing words, there were differences in the language switching in word class level. It also uncovered that a number of borrowing words do not affect the readers' understanding of the Katakana texts as long as the borrowing words are nouns and pronouns. The success of the Lou Go phenomenon may be summarised by two factors. The first is 'bilingual experience' among the Japanese and the second factor is the influence of globalisation and the Japanese educational policy. 72 pp. Englisch.

Of them, 78 millions are in the Himalayas in Asia, 35 millions in the Andes of South America and 13 millions in Ethiopia. They are exposed to an environment of ambient hypoxia. Their oxygen transport system must offset hypoxia in order to support for development and reproduction. Scientific study of human adaptation to high started in Andeans in 1950s, Tibetans in 1970s and Ethiopians in the beginning of this century. To the same stress, the responses among the three populations are quite different. In China, beginning with the 1960s, a large numbers of low-altitude Han migrated to Qinghai, now allowing a new dimension of the natural experiment in evolution to compare the second-generation Han migrants with native Tibetans. This book offers an overview of different adaptations in the three regions and introduces our new findings in developmental adaptation in cardiopulmonary system in Han and Tibetan children in Qinghai. 140 pp. Englisch.

Current literature reveals misrepresentation of financial statements has resulted in significant penalties and fines affecting the profitability of the organization. Based on the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners the current estimate of financial irregularities suggests a significant amount of revenue is lost because of fraud.

Vehicle to Vehicle communications are going to be an important evaluation in current wireless communication technology which are mainly based on the low mobility nodes. Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is an instance of MANET that establishes wireless connections between Vehicle i.e. Cars, Buses and Trucks etc. Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) characterized by nodes with relatively mobility and various disturbed environments. In VANET, a number of routing protocols and techniques are used for vehicular communication i.e. communications between car to car, communications between trucks to trucks. VANET having features such as distributed processing and organized networking, large number of nodes, distribution and speed of these nodes, constrained like highly variable network topology, communication conditions and mobility patterns, signal transmissions blocked by buildings, frequent partition due to the high mobility, and finally there are no significant power constraints. Hence, it needs specific vehicular capabilities and requirements for communications. Routing in vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANET) has 80 pp. Englisch.

It is often a silent disease and causing no symptoms until much of the liver has been damaged. In this book we built a system dynamics model for the different life cycle stages of the HCV disease including the related factors using VENSIM PLE software. This dynamic model gave the chance to take different measures to prevent or minimize the occurrence of this disease and provide the ability to decrease the mortality rate from late stage, cirrhosis, by appropriate treatments. The accumulation of the consecutive stages of the HCV disease was an S-shape in the cirrhosis stage. This result suggests a good control on the HCV death rate. The results also discuss the variable sensitivities that affect on the HCV disease and produce some measurements values of the disease stages. The more important factor we discuss in details is the awareness variable, we provide all possible hypothesis that related with other factors to outcome some realistic behavior of the disease cycle with its affecting factors. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A large number of new application in biology, biotechnology etc. requires preservation of cells, tissues etc. at temperature down to 173K. So there is a worldwide attention to develop the system to meet this temperature.Conventional cascade vapour compression refrigerators are normally used for providing refrigeration below 230K. Generally, two cascade stages are required for temperatures down to 200K and three stages for temperatures down to 173K. As the number of stages increase, the complexity of the system, number of heat exchangers and compressors, and ultimately cost increases. Alternatively, it is also possible to use single stage refrigeration system that operates with a mixture of refrigerants to provide refrigeration at low temperatures. Such systems are known as Mixed Refrigerant Cascade (MRC) systems, or Auto Refrigerant Cascade (ARC)system.The use of a single compressor (used in domestic refrigerators and air conditioners) in a MRC refrigeration system compared to multiple compressors in cascade vapour compression refrigerator results in reduction of cost and complexity, and increases reliability. 52 pp. Englisch.

The authors have investigated Energy Efficiency and barriers in motor vehicle assembly plants. The book presents a case study of a vehicle assembly plant in Kenya. The case was achieved by estimating the amount and cost of energy used in various sections of the plants and pieces of equipment. The study was able to estimate the energy used and lost from specific machines. This study considered various types of energy in contrast to other studies which concentrate on electrical energy only. Welding machines and fans are the major consumers of electrical energy while burners and the stand-by generator are the major consumers of fuel. 216 pp. Englisch.

Based on theories of human agency, it is essential to know people' perceptions and acceptance of the information and computer technology (Rogers, 1983) Hence, this study explores teachers' perceptions on the widespread teaching and learning approaches utilizing computer-assisted language learning in the subject English language institutes in Kurdistan. The purpose of this study was to investigate the usage and perception of Iranian English Language teachers of English language institutes in Kurdistan towards the use of computer technology in EFL courses. This study also explored teachers' perceptions towards computer and information technology and factors contributing to their perceptions so as to provide some constructive information and suggestions for the adoption and application of computer-assisted language learning experience and knowledge to their language teaching. 92 pp. Englisch.

Also concerns with potential energy function, dissociation energy and Franck Codon Factor.Spectroscopic studies of diatomic molecules are useful in such fields as astrophysics, astronomy and combustion physics. Most of the molecules we know are in the atmosphere of the cool stars where they exist in sufficient numbers to make their band spectrum to observe. Spectroscopy happens to be the most versatile remote sensing tool of astronomers. Spectroscopic investigations have revealed the existence of SiO in various astrophysical sources, such as supernova ejecta. 112 pp. Englisch.
