Overview: Offers insights into China‘s ethnic minorities in an era of post-industrial reform.Sheds light onto the geopolitical issues of China‘s northeastern borders.Gives a glimpse into the everyday realities .This book offers a rare glimpse into China‘s Korean minority, which dominates the area bordering North Korea; even as Korea is riven into capitalist and communist societies, China‘s Koreans register this dilemma as one internal to the society they live in, in China‘s postindustrial Northeast. As this research makes clear, once driven by state investment in industry, the Northeast is now

Overview: Matroid theory has its origin in a paper by H. Whitney entitled "On the abstract properties of linear dependence" [35], which appeared in 1935. The main objective of the paper was to establish the essential (abstract) properties of the concepts of linear dependence and independence in vector spaces, and to use these for the axiomatic definition of a new algebraic object, namely the matroid. Furthermore, Whitney showed that these axioms are also abstractions of certain graph-theoretic concepts. This is very much in evidence when one considers the basic concepts making up the structure

Overview: Introduces an innovative new way to gauge when financial bubbles are about to burst.Provides a ready-to-use indicator that financial practitioners can directy apply.Presents extended versions of the BThis book introduces readers to a new approach to identifying stock market bubbles by using the illiquidity premium, a parameter derived by employing conic finance theory. Further, it shows how to develop the closed form formulas of the bid and ask prices of European options by using Black-Scholes and Kou models. By using the derived formulas and sliding windows technique, the book expla

Overview: This is a prize winning thesis, nominated for Springer Theses by Kyoto University.Presents new observations from three recent lunar missions that exhibit the essential features of Moon-plasma interact.This thesis describes the essential features of Moon-plasma interactions with a particular emphasis on the Earth‘s magnetotail plasma regime from both observational and theoretical standpoints. The Moon lacks a dense atmosphere as well as a strong intrinsic magnetic field. As a result, its interactions with the ambient plasma are drastically different from solar-wind interactions with m

Overview: This book is intended to serve as introductory and reference material for the application of integral transforms to a range of common mathematical problems. It has its im- mediate origin in lecture notes prepared for senior level courses at the Australian National University, although I owe a great deal to my colleague Barry Ninham, a matter to which I refer below. In preparing the notes for publication as a book, I have added a considerable amount of material ad- tional to the lecture notes, with the intention of making the book more useful, particularly to the graduate student - vo

Overview: Use and benefit of pesticides in agricultural pest control.Hazards and problems with the use of pesticides.Crop production without the use of pesticides, organic agriculture.Includes supplementary mat.The book deals with the present state and problems of integrated pest management as relating to stakeholder acceptance of IPM and how integrated pest management can become a sustainable practice. The discussions include using less pesticides and the possibility of eliminating pesticides from agricultural practice..? ? ??.978-94-024-0022-9978-94-007-7796-5

First, general trends and challenges in low-cost high data-rate 60GHz wireless system are studied, and the phased array technique is introduced to improve the system performance. Second, the system requirements of phase shifters are analyzed, and differe

Overview: A machine vision system should be able to analyze images and produce descriptions of what it "sees". The descriptions should capture the aspects of the objects being imaged and be useful for accomplishing some specific tasks. In this volume a number of subjects are discussed. They include theoretical aspects which focus on shape analysis, special architectures, 3-D image decomposition, inspection by machine vision, and others. Applications include geophysical image analysis, robotics, sparse image understanding, biomedical applications. An ample survey of the present industrial appli
