Distributed Planning for Self-Organizing Production Systems
In dieser Arbeit wird ein Ansatz entwickelt, um eine automatische Anpassung des Verhaltens von Produktionsanlagen an wechselnde Aufträge und Rahmenbedingungen zu erreichen. Dabei kommt das Prinzip der Selbstorganisation durch verteilte Planung zum Einsatz. - Most production processes are rigid not only by way of the physical layout of machines and their integration, but also by the custom programming of the control logic for the integration of components to a production systems. Changes are time- and resource-expensive. This makes the production of small lot sizes of customized products economically challenging. This work develops solutions for the automated adaptation of production systems based on self-organisation and distributed planning.
Joint Production and Responsibility in Ecological Economics
'. . . an ambitious and compelling book. . . provides a paradigmatic approach to ecological economics that - although based on familiar elements - is nonetheless fresh and original. . . It is a work that should be read by a diverse set of students and researchers interested in this field.' - Richard B. Howarth, Environmental Values
Human and Environmental Security in the Era of Global Risks
This book discusses ways to deepen the debate on the linkages between global risks and human and environmental security. The approach put forward in this book is one of questioning the ability of existing concepts, regulatory frameworks, technologies and decision-making mechanisms to accurately deal with emerging risks to human and environmental security, and to act in the direction of effectively managing their impacts and fostering the resilience of concerned systems and resources. Empirical research findings from Africa, Asia and the Pacific Islands are provided. During the last decades the links between emerging risks and the security of humans and nature have been the object of consider...
Proceedings of the Fourth Annual ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms
Annotation Proceedings of a conference that took place in Austin, Texas in January 1993. Contributors are impressive names from the field of computer science, including Donald Knuth, author of several computer books of "biblical" importance. The diverse selection of paper topics includes dynamic point location, ray shooting, and the shortest paths in planar maps; optimistic sorting and information theoretic complexity; and an optimal randomized algorithm for the cow-path problem.

Nachhaltiges Entscheiden
Ein renommierter Expertenkreis aus Kolleginnen und Kollegen untermauert in dieser Festschrift zum 65. Geburtstag von Prof. Dr. Harald Dyckhoff die große Relevanz der von ihm bearbeiteten Forschungsthemen und diesbezüglicher Erkenntnisse. Die Beiträge folgen seiner multiperspektivischen, theoriegestützten Herangehensweise und fokussieren u. a. Fragen des Nachhaltigkeitsmanagements. Weitere Analysegegenstände sind die Neukonzeption der Produktionstheorie, die entscheidungstheoretische Durchdringung des Controllings und der Performancemessung sowie die Optimierung von (Closed Loop) Supply Chains.

Operations Research Models in Quantitative Finance
The articles included in the volume cover a range of diverse topics linked by a common theme: the use of formal modelling techniques to promote better understanding of financial markets and improve management of financial operations. Apart from a theoretical discussion, most of the papers model validation or verification using market data. This collection of articles sets the framework for other studies that could link theory and practice.
