EMU - A Swedish Perspective provides a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the EMU project. The main advantages and disadvantages of a single currency are evaluated. A key feature of the analysis is the attempt to integrate economic and political aspects. The book is a revised version of the report by the Swedish Government Commission on the EMU. Although the analysis focuses on the consequences for Sweden of joining versus not joining the monetary union, it is highly relevant for the discussion in all EU countries. The book provides an in-depth analysis of how the demands on economic policy will be affected by the monetary union. Various chapters discuss monetary policy and inflation, fiscal policy, unemployment and labour markets, the transition to monetary union, and the exchange-rate arrangements between participants and non-participants. Other chapters analyse the importance of the EMU for European political integration, democratic aspects, and how membership in the monetary union will affect the possibilities for an individual member state to exert influence within the EU. EMU - A Swedish Perspective should be of interest to professional economists and political scientists, students, and all others who want to form an opinion about the monetary union on the basis of a balanced assessment of the consequences.

Robotized Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation describes the methods needed to develop a robotic system that is clinically applicable for the application of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Chapter 1 introduces the basic principles of TMS and discusses current developments towards robotized TMS. Part I (Chapters 2 and 3) systematically analyzes and clinically evaluates robotized TMS. More specifically, it presents the impact of head motion on the induced electric field. In Part II (Chapters 3 to 8), a new method for a robust robot/camera calibration, a sophisticated force-torque control with hand-assisted positioning, a novel FTA-sensor for system safety, and techniques for direct head tracking, are described and evaluated. Part III discusses these developments in the context of safety and clinical applicability of robotized TMS and presents future prospects of robotized TMS. Robotized Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is intended for researchers as a guide for developing effective robotized TMS solutions. Professionals and practitioners may also find the book valuable.
Encounter with Mathematics

Encounter with Mathematics

Trying to make mathematics understandable to the general public is a very difficult task. The writer has to take into account that his reader has very little patience with unfamiliar concepts and intricate logic and this means that large parts of mathematics are out of bounds. When planning this book, I set myself an easier goal. I wrote it for those who already know some mathematics, in particular those who study the subject the first year after high school. Its purpose is to provide a historical, scientific, and cultural frame for the parts of mathematics that meet the beginning student. Nine chapters ranging from number theory to applications are devoted to this program. Each one starts with a historical introduction, continues with a tight but complete account of some basic facts and proceeds to look at the present state of affairs including, if possible, some recent piece of research. Most of them end with one or two passages from historical mathematical papers, translated into English and edited so as to be understandable. Sometimes the reader is referred back to earlier parts of the text, but the various chapters are to a large extent independent of each other. A reader who gets stuck in the middle of a chapter can still read large parts of the others. It should be said, however, that the book is not meant to be read straight through.
Complex Analysis

Complex Analysis

Lars Ahlfors

AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY
2022
nidottu
This book is a reprint of the third edition of the classic book on complex analysis. It is a rigorous introduction on an elementary level to the theory of analytic functions of one complex variable and is intended to be used by first year graduate students and advanced undergraduate students.The book covers standard topics in an introductory complex analysis course. The presentation is slanted toward the geometric approach to complex analysis, with a lot of material on conformal mappings, the Riemann mapping theorem, Dirichlet's problem (the existence of a harmonic function with given boundary values), the monodromy theorem, and consideration of the kinds of regions that the Cauchy integral theorem holds for. It also covers such analytic topics as power series, contour integrals, and infinite products. The coverage of special functions is concise but reasonably complete. The presentation is concise, clear, and thorough, and is still fresh today, more than thirty years after its last revision.

Vad är det som gör oss till de vi är? Vad är det som får oss att göra det vi gör? Vad är det som driver oss framåt? Finns det ett facit eller ens några röda trådar? Går det att sia om framtiden om vi känner till det förflutna? Lars Ulwencreutz reflekterar över de första 30 åren av sitt liv, ett slags memoarer i anekdotform och ser sitt liv som ett enormt pussel vars bitar inte passar ihop. Inom dessa pärmar återfinns dessa pusselbitar, återstår att se om någon blir klokare för det.

Here the story continues with the years 2015-2018, featuring several disoveries that overturn established beer history, as well as beer hunting trips to exotic places in Norway, Sweden, Lithuania, and Estonia.
Increasing Motorcycle Conspicuity

Increasing Motorcycle Conspicuity

It’s a widely recognised trend that powered-two-wheelers' (PTWs) use has been steadily increasing and is projected to increase further. While providing benefits to the community in the form of reduced traffic congestion and environmental benefits, the risks to PTW riders remain and visibility will always be a key issue. Increasing Motorcycle Conspicuity aims to illustrate how driving simulation, field studies and laboratory experiments can be used to improve rider safety through the design and evaluation of a range of safety measures. The book outlines the factors that contribute to PTW visibility and detection by car drivers, and presents case studies to illustrate how the various methods can be used to explore the contribution of these factors. The final chapter of the book highlights the utility of a simulation-based approach to improving PTW safety and discusses this method’s future applications. The case studies collected within the volume cover phases of the design of conspicuity treatments and provide a broad spectrum of empirical strategies for assessing the interventions. The book is most directly relevant to researchers and applied scientists from the fields of traffic/transportation psychology and human factors, as well as to practitioners from the traffic safety sector.

The Developing Countries and the World Economic Order provides a lucid introduction to the debate about the developing countries and the quest for a New International Economic Order. The primary objective is to indicate some of the fundamental requirements that must be satisfied by an equitable world order.Since the present economic situation and demands of developing countries cannot be understood thoroughly without prior knowledge of how the present world order has evolved, Part I begins with a detailed historical survey. An account of economic development up to the Second World War and of the colonial heritage of the developing countries is followed by a description of the way in which the postwar world order came into being. Part II analyses more recent developments, including the central demands of developing countries and the background to these demands, and outlines a new perspective on the NIEO programme with suggestions are offered on how the developing countries could secure for themselves a larger share of the world’s resources.A major theme of the book is that important changes in the world order take place irrespective of the recommendations adopted at international conferences.

The Sympathy of Things

The Sympathy of Things

Lars Spuybroek

Bloomsbury Academic

‘If there is one thing we can learn from John Ruskin, it is that each age must find its own way to beauty’ writes Lars Spuybroek in The Sympathy of Things, his ground-breaking work which proposes a radical new aesthetics for the digital era. Spuybroek argues that we must 'undo' the twentieth century and learn to understand the aesthetic insights of the nineteenth-century art critic John Ruskin, from which he distils pointers for the contemporary age. Linking philosophy, design, and the digital, with art history, architecture, and craft, Spuybroek explores the romantic notion of ‘sympathy’, a core concept in Ruskin's aesthetics, re-evaluating it as the driving force of the twenty-first century aesthetic experience. For Ruskin, beauty always comprises variation, imperfection and fragility, three concepts that wholly disappeared from our mindsets during the twentieth century, but which Spuybroek argues to be central to contemporary aesthetics and design. Revised throughout, and a new foreword by philosopher Brian Massumi, this is a new edition of a seminal work which has drawn praise from fields as diverse as digital architecture and speculative realism, and will continue to be influential as it wrests Ruskin’s ideas out of the Victorian era and reconstructs them for the modern age.

Digital Customer Experience Engineering
Customer experience engineering applied to the engineering department is rare, but needed. Most companies keep support, UX, engineering, product, and CX separate. To address this gap, this book highlights roles and techniques that are proven to accelerate issue detection and prevention by 30% or more. With the author's vast experience in tech support, he has developed techniques and skills that allow engineers to gain customer insights faster and through new and insightful sources that are within their reach. You will develop a deep understanding of the impact of issues; understand and optimize the speed of the engineering feedback loop (issue resolution time); and develop the ability to calculate the cost of the issues or customer friction to the business (in aggregate and on a case-by-case basis). Organizations can save significant money and add additional revenue by addressing customer friction proactively in collaboration with product, engineering, and site reliability engineering (SRE) functions and reduce the average time of an issue resolution by 80%. The cross-functional leadership, mentoring, and engineering techniques you’ll learn from this proactive stance are very valuable and teachable, and this book will show you the path forward.What You Will LearnGain the techniques and tools necessary to validate customer journey success in productionContribute to customer-centric key performance indicators (KPIs) on executive dashboardsCreate meaningful insights and data points that allowed the feedback loop to be optimized and efficient Who This Book is ForProfessionals participating in the value stream of digital software engineering for the benefit of customer experiences, directly or indirectly.

Not Fair Enough offers a fresh perspective on the barriers to true equal opportunity in Canada. Challenging the conventional focus on labour market earnings, this book examines both sides of GDP – income from labour and income from capital – highlighting the critical role of inherited wealth in sustaining Canada’s financial aristocracy of great family fortunes. Through a compelling exploration of both upward and downward social mobility, the book reveals the hidden mechanisms that reinforce inherited privilege and the persistent barriers to change. Challenging the myth of a meritocratic society, Not Fair Enough makes a compelling case for systemic reform – calling not only for expanded opportunities but also for a stronger social safety net to mitigate the realities of downward mobility. With a sharp focus on taxation of large inheritances, the vital role of unions, and the impact of progressive social policies, this book presents a powerful call to action for a fairer, more just economy. Engaging and thought-provoking, it is essential reading for anyone concerned about the future of economic equality in Canada.

Embedded processors are the heart of embedded systems. Reconfigurable embedded processors comprise an extended instruction set that is implemented using a reconfigurable fabric (similar to a field-programmable gate array, FPGA). This book presents novel concepts, strategies, and implementations to increase the run-time adaptivity of reconfigurable embedded processors. Concepts and techniques are presented in an accessible, yet rigorous context. A complex, realistic H.264 video encoder application with a high demand for adaptivity is presented and used as an example for motivation throughout the book. A novel, run-time system is demonstrated to exploit the potential for adaptivity and particular approaches/algorithms are presented to implement it.
