Overview: .Process Technology for Semiconductor Lasers .describes the design principles of semiconductor lasers, mainly from the fabrication point of view. A review is given of the history of semiconductor-laser development and applications and of the materials used in lasing at short to long wavelengths. The basic design principles for semiconductor-laser devices and the epitaxy for laser production are discussed. An entire chapter is devoted to the technology of liquid-phase epitaxy, and another one to vapor-phase and beam epitaxies. The characterizations of laser materials and the fabricati

Overview: The second half of the 1970s was marked with impressive advances in array/vector architectures and vectorization techniques and compilers. This progress continued with a particular focus on vector machines until the middle of the 1980s. The major- ity of supercomputers during this period were register-to-register (Cray 1) or memory-to-memory (CDC Cyber 205) vector (pipelined) machines. However, the increasing demand for higher computational rates lead naturally to parallel comput- ers and software. Through the replication of autonomous processors in a coordinated system, one can skip

Overview: Wie die steigenden Scheidungszahlen in fast allen westlichen L?ndern zeigen, sind Schwierigkeiten in der Ehe ein bedeutendes soziales Pro- blem. Man sch?tzt, da? in der Bundesrepublik etwajede vierte bis dritte Ehe durch Scheidung oder Trennung enden wird. Die Auswirkungen von ehelichen Auseinandersetzungen oder von Scheidung auf die emo- tionale Befindlichkeit der Partner und vor allem auf die Kinder sind bis- her kaum erforscht; wie gro? die Bedeutung dieses Problems ist, zeigen Zahlenaus den USA: In den n?chsten Jahrzehnten werden ca. 40% aller Kinder von Scheidung betroffen sein.

Overview: Examines the pathologisation and depathologisation of mental health in Ibero-América in theory and case studies.Brings critical psychology into dialogue with psychiatry, sociology, philosophy and psyc.This book examines the pathologisation and depathologisation of mental health in Ibero-América. It highlights the possibilities and the epistemic limits of the interpretative models of?.pathos.?that have legitimised mental health pathologies. Further, it proposes a rereading of psychopathology and analyses the clinical, philosophical, ontological, ethical, psychological and anthropologi

Overview: Computational intelligence paradigms have attracted the growinginterest of researchers, scientists, engineers and applicationengineers in a number of everyday applications. These applications arenot limited to any particular field and include engineering, business,banking and consumer electronics.
