Overview: Although rigidity has been studied since the time of Lagrange(1788) and Maxwell (1864), it is only in the last twenty-five yearsthat it has begun to find applications in the basic sciences. Themodern era starts with Laman (1970), who made the subject rigorous intwo dimensions, followed by the development of computer algorithmsthat can test over a million sites in seconds and find the rigidregions, and the associated pivots, leading to many applications. Thisworkshop was organized to bring together leading researchers studyingthe underlying theory, and to explore the various areas of

Overview: Fragen der Rationalit?t sind für eine Theorie der strategischen Unternehmensplanung in doppelter Hinsicht von Bedeutung. Zum einen ist Rationalit?t das Ziel jeder Planung. Zum anderen ist die Rationalit?t der Planung Voraussetzung für Rationalit?t durch Planung. Daraus ergibt sich das Rationalit?tsproblem der strategischen Unternehmensplanung: Wie kann und soll die Rationalit?t der Planung beurteilt werden? Axel B?cker zeigt unter Rückgriff auf die moderne Systemtheorie, da? und warum die in der Literatur vorherrschenden L?sungsversuche des Rationalit?tsproblems als unzureichend anzu
