Overview: A quorum system is a collection of subsets of nodes, called quorums, with the property that each pair of quorums have a non-empty intersection. Quorum systems are the key mathematical abstraction for ensuring consistency in fault-tolerant and highly available distributed computing. Critical for many applications since the early days of distributed computing, quorum systems have evolved from simple majorities of a set of processes to complex hierarchical collections of sets, tailored for general adversarial structures. The initial non-empty intersection property has been refined many

Overview: Eine international vergleichende Studie der Berufsbildungsforschung.Die Studie untersucht, inwiefern deutsche Produktionsunternehmen in China, Indien und Mexiko versuchen, das deutsche duale Ausbildungsmodell zu übertragen oder in ihrer Qualifizierungspraxis eher den lokalen Kontext adaptieren. Dabei wird der Fokus auf Einflussgr??en gerichtet, die aus der Unternehmensperspektive auf die m?gliche übertragung einwirken. Die Befunde zeigen einen erheblichen Einfluss der nationalen Rahmung in den Untersuchungsregionen. Dennoch lassen sich in allen drei L?ndern auch duale Ans?tze identif

Overview: This book argues that Gothic writing of the Romantic period is queer. Using a variety of texts, it argues that contemporary queer theory can help us to read the obliqueness and invisibility of same-sex desire in a culture of vigilance. Fincher shows how the Gothic‘s ambivalent gender politics destabilize heteronormative narratives.978-1-349-28120-6978-0-230-22317-2

Overview: Quantile regression is a novel virtually unpublished approach to data analysis.It is excellent for the analysis of clinical data with outliers, skewness, and inconstant variability.It is suitable for .Quantile regression is an approach to data at a loss of homogeneity, for example (1) data with outliers, (2) skewed data like corona - deaths data,?(3) data with inconstant variability, (4) big data. In clinical research many examples can be given like circadian phenomena, and diseases where spreading may be dependent on subsets with frailty, low weight, low hygiene, and many forms of l

Overview: This is the first monograph written on the quantum probability approach to spectral analysis of graphs, a subject initiated by the authors many years agoIt is a great pleasure for me that the new Springer Quantum Probability ProgrammeisopenedbythepresentmonographofAkihitoHoraandNobuaki Obata. In fact this book epitomizes several distinctive features of contemporary quantum probability: First of all the use of speci?c quantum probabilistic techniques to bring original and quite non-trivial contributions to problems with an old history and on which a huge literature exists, both indepe

You‘ll gain the basics and be ready to move to the next level: web and mobile apps. While you won‘t learn the specifics of programming web and mobile apps, you will have the foundation to take your Dart skills in that direction..This book starts with an introduction to the Dart IDE, af

Overview: The book provides a survey about the field of Qualitative Reasoning, it contrasts and classifies its approaches and puts them into a common framework. Qualitative Reasoning represents an approach of Artificial Intelligence to model dynamic systems, about which little information is available, and to derive statements about the potential behavior of these systems, putting emphasis on a causal explanation of the behavior. Both variables and relationships between variables are described by means of qualitative terms such as small and large or positive and negative. Since this approach a

Overview: Offers an essential introduction to survey research and quantitative methods.Teaches statistical methods in a practical, hands-on manner.Shows how to conduct empirical tests in SPSS and StataThis textbook offers an essential introduction to survey research and quantitative methods.
