Model to Monetarily Aggregate Risks of Procurement to Support Decision Makers
The present thesis provides a model to monetarily aggregate procurement risks to support decision makers. A material flow oriented view forms the fundament of the model. The model is designed to aggregate delay, quality and cost related procurement risks considering their uncertainty. Procurement risks are aggregated to form a monetary risk distribution. Decision-makers can select procurement strategies that are adequate for their risk situation, depending on their affinity for risk to mitigate procurement risks.
Simulation and Modeling Methodologies, Technologies and Applications
This Proceedings book reports on new and innovative solutions regarding methodologies and applications of modeling and simulation. It includes a set of selected, extended papers from the 6th International Conference on Simulation and Modeling Methodologies, Technologies and Applications (SIMULTECH 2016), held in Lisbon, Portugal, from 29 to 31 July, 2016. The conference brought together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in methodologies and applications of modeling and simulation. SIMULTECH 2016 received 76 submissions from 35 countries and all continents. After a double-blind paper review performed by the Program Committee, 18% were accepted as full papers and thus selected for oral presentations. Additional papers were accepted as short papers and posters. A further selection was made after the Conference, based also on the assessment of presentation quality and audience interest, so that this book includes the extended and revised versions of the very best papers from SIMULTECH 2016.
Operations Research and Enterprise Systems
This book constitutes revised selected papers from the 5th International Conference on Operations Research and Enterprise Systems, ICORES 2016, held in Rome, Italy, in February 2016. The 14 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selection from a total of 75 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: methodologies and technologies; and applications.

A Topical Guide to Schenkerian Literature
To the growing list of Pendragon Press publications devoted to the work of Heinrich Schenker, we wish to announce the addition of this much-needed bibliography. The author, a student of Allen Forte, has created a work useful to a wide range of researchers music theorists, musicologists, music librarians and teachers. The Guide is the largest Schenkerian reference work ever published. At nearly 600 pages, it contains 3600 entries (2200 principal, 1400 secondary) representing the work of 1475 authors. Fifteen broad groupings encompass seventy topical headings, many of which are divided and subdivided again, resulting in a total of 271 headings under which entries are collected.
Picturing Experience in the Early Printed Book
Bernhard von Breydenbach’s Peregrinatio in terram sanctam (Journey to the Holy Land), first published in 1486, is one of the seminal books of early printing and is especially renowned for the originality of its woodcuts. In Picturing Experience in the Early Printed Book, Elizabeth Ross considers the Peregrinatio from a variety of perspectives to explain its value for the cultural history of the period. Breydenbach, a high-ranking cleric in Mainz, recruited the painter Erhard Reuwich of Utrecht for a religious and artistic adventure in a political hot spot—a pilgrimage to research the peoples, places, plants, and animals of the Levant. The book they published after their return ambitiousl...
Exploring Cybernetics
Die Beiträge des Sammelbandes befassen sich mit zentralen Themen der Kybernetik: Was ist Kybernetik überhaupt? Wie können wir sie nutzen und wo können wir sie einsetzen? Die Autoren zeigen, dass unser Digitalzeitalter von umfassenden technologischen Neuerungen, komplexer Vernetzung und schnellen Innovationszyklen gekennzeichnet ist, die sich klassischen Beschreibungsmodellen und traditionellen Regelungsmechanismen entziehen. Immer vielfältiger interagierende Strukturen erfordern neue Methoden, um diese Komplexität zu beschreiben und zu gestalten. Hochkarätige WissenschaftlerInnen verschiedenster Fachgebiete erläutern die Kybernetik aus Sicht ihrer jeweiligen Disziplin.
SpatioTemporalities on the Line
Lines are omnipresent in our everyday experience and language. They reflect and influence the spatial and temporal structures of our world view. Taking Tim Ingold’s cultural history of the line as a starting-point, this book understands lines as expressions that allow insights into cultural theoretical phenomena and thus go beyond their mere form. The essays will investigate this premise from various disciplines (architecture, art, cartography, film, literature and philosophy).
The Tangled Origins of the Leibnizian Calculus
This book is a detailed study of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz''s creation of calculus from 1673 to the 1680s. We examine and analyze the mathematics in several of his early manuscripts as well as various articles published in the Acta Eruditorum. It studies some of the other lesser known OC calculiOCO Leibniz created such as the Analysis Situs, delves into aspects of his logic, and gives an overview of his efforts to construct a Universal Characteristic, a goal that has its distant origin in the Ars Magna of the 13th century Catalan philosopher Raymond Llull, whose work enjoyed a renewed popularity in the century and a half prior to Leibniz. This book also touches upon a new look at the priority controversy with Newton and a Kuhnian interpretation of the nature of mathematical change. This book may be the only integrated treatment based on recent research and should be a thought-provoking contribution to the history of mathematics for scholars and students, interested in either Leibniz''s mathematical achievement or general issues in the field."
