Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The question of euthanasia has a complex evolution, generating debates in legal media. The fact that certain countries have authorized the use of such means to end someone's life has caused a dangerous void in the legal system. It consists of the danger to end the life of foreign citizens in those countries in which euthanasia is legal, although the native countries of those citizens incriminate such means. Conflicts rise, involving the law applicable in such cases. A solution to these conflicts may come from the Christian conception of life and death or, rather, the life after death.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The objective of this study is to analyze the possible consequences and regulatory challenges of the increase in off-balance sheet operations in banks and the expansion of the shadow banking system, alerting about potential implications to systemic risk. Particularities of off-balance-sheet operations are discussed, such as accounting for contingent liabilities and financial instruments and consolidated financial reporting standards. The typology of off-balance-sheet transactions, guarantees, contingent commitments, and derivative contracts, is appreciated and the economic hypotheses that would justify the expansion of these activities in the banking system. Also, in off-balance sheet operations, the leading financial risks that these activities imply for financial institutions are identified. The shadow banking system, after its delimitation, is appreciated as regards its evolution and threats to the financial system. The study concludes by proposing that the prudential regulation should be rethought, emphasizing what we learned from the crisis of 2008 and how mechanisms can be created to deal with risks associated with off-balance-sheet and shadow banking operations.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -One of the most important plant disease in viticulture is gray mold caused by Botrytis cinerea Pers. Fr., the anamorph of an ascomycete fungus (Botryotinia fuckeliana Whetzel). Gray mold development on grape berries depends on the genetic structure of the pathogen population but is also driven by some key factors, including climatic conditions, cluster architecture and berry susceptibility. Numerous treatments with fungicides are required for management of the gray mold which intensifies the risk of resistance development since B.cinerea has a high risk of resistance development. The forecasting model for B. cinerea Pers. Which will be shown here is only pioneering attempt to prevent development of gray mold. The white grapevine varieties Smederevka and Zilavka was continuously observed at last three years in the two experimental fields located at Smilica and Sopot, Kavadarci, Republic of North Macedonia. The working hypothesis was to follow the development of the disease after increasing glucose over 11%, until the time of the grape harvest.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Attachment style plays an important role in everybody¿s life being present in that from the first moments. It is well known that the first interaction between the child and his mother lays the foundations of attachment. The extent to which it evolves will make the person responsible for their own actions and decisions throughout life. Emotional intelligence is also an important aspect in a person's life helping to better understand the inner world, but also the outer world. Cognitive schemas are responsible for how people build current experiences based on previous ones helping the individual to guide themselves as well as what is surrounding it. Starting from the attachment style and its importance in terms of emotional intelligence, but also cognitive schemas the current study aims to study the relationship between the three variables. The central motivation of the study is to observe how the relationship between attachment styles and emotional intelligence can be influenced by the use of dysfunctional cognitive schemas like emotional deprivation, failure, and seeking approval schemas.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Most recent earthquakes have shown that the irregular distribution of mass, stiffness and strengths may cause serious damage in structural systems. However an accurate evaluation of the seismic behaviour of irregular buildings is quite difficult and a complicated problem Due to the variety of parameters and the choice of possible models for torsionally unbalanced systems, there is as yet no common agreement or any accurate procedure advised by researchers on common practice in order to evaluate the torsional effects. In this book three frames were exerted which were three different shapes (symmetric, L shape and T shape) in three different heights (G+3, G+6 and G+9 story). The frames were analysed by Response Spectrum Method and then the frames were assessed by nonlinear static (pushover) analysis mainly based on FEMA 440 (2005).Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Ornamental fish culturing technology is believed to be cash flow in Indian and other countries. Many countries were collect coral reef fish for aquariums. Likewise, Chicago opened the Shed Aquarium. A permanent marine fish collection was housed at the aquarium, making it the first such facility in the country. Seawater and fish may be transported by train from Florida to Chicago. A marine aquarium may have been developed in Europe early in the 1800s by French biologist Felix Dujardin. A new industry originated when global air freight became an alternative to international trade in the 1950s. Aquaria that house merely fish have been phased out in favor of aquariums that hold coral reefs over the past decade. The global market today has more than 50 countries exporting and importing goods.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Therefore, the Heuristic Schedule Generation algorithm method was chosen as the best method and can be applied in the company to minimize the make-span.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book focuses on the distance-based range queries that continuously changes their locations in an Euclidean space. An efficient and effective monitoring technique is presented based on the concept of a safe zone. The safe zone of a query is the area with a property that while the query remains inside it, the results of the query remain unchanged. Hence, the query does not need to be reevaluated unless it leaves the safe zone. The contributions are as follows: 1) The technique based on powerful pruning rules and a unique access order is presented, which efficiently computes the safe zone and minimizes the I/O cost. 2) The expected distance a query moves before leaving the safe zone is theoretically determined and experimentally verified 3) Extension of this technique to monitor the queries in a road network.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Natural Language Processing is one of the key research areas in computer science due to the latest vogue of intelligence and automation. The major issue is the automatic speech and text processing with the help of unconstrained natural language in order to exchange information with an intuitive and smart machine i.e. computer. Due to the unavailability or scarcity of resources for Indian languages, not much progress has been done in this area. Indian languages are free-order word languages where the order of the word does not matter and this makes Indian languages difficult to process. In this book, one of the tools in ¿Indian Natural Language Processing¿, a local word grouper for Hindi is evolved and analyzed. The book gives a review of the techniques of the pos tagger and shallow parser for Hindi and includes the formulation of hand-crafted rules for major and minor phrases or groups. The major phrase includes the verb group (VG), noun group (NG), adjective group (ADG), adverb group (AVG), quantifier group (QG), and conjunctive group (CG). The minor phrase includes the postpositions (PPG), symbols (SYG), negations (NG)), particles (RPG), and punctuations (PUNG).Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.
