Knowledge, Skills and Competence in the European Labour Market

Knowledge, Skills and Competence in the European Labour Market

Michaela Brockmann; Linda Clarke; Christopher Winch

Routledge
2011
nidottu
For the free movement of labour across the European Union, establishing transparency and comparability of qualifications across member states is vital.This book examines how qualifications, knowledge, skills and competences are understood in different national contexts and trans-nationally and reveals a complex picture of differences and similarities both within and between countries. Against the background of EU policy initiatives, and in particular the European Qualifications Framework, an important focus is on the prospects and difficulties of establishing cross-national recognition of qualifications.Drawing on case studies of particular sectors and occupations in England, France, Germany and the Netherlands, this insightful book, written by leading academics in the field, will be a vital resource for students and researchers involved with vocational education and training, continuing professional development, human resource management and European Union policy.
The Challenge of Violent Drug-Trafficking Organizations

The Challenge of Violent Drug-Trafficking Organizations

RAND

pokkari
A RAND team conducted a Delphi expert elicitation exercise, the results of which offer an assessment of the contemporary security situation in Mexico through the lens of existing RAND research on urban instability and unrest, historical insurgencies, and defense-sector reform. Assessment scorecards from these projects were used to obtain input from the expert panel and to guide the resulting discussion.
From Stalemate to Settlement

From Stalemate to Settlement

Colin P. Clarke; Christopher Paul

RAND
2014
pokkari
A comprehensive review of historical insurgencies that ended in settlement after a military stalemate shows that these negotiations followed a similar path that can be generalized into a master narrative of seven steps executed in a common sequence. Such a narrative could help guide and assess the progress of a similar approach to resolving the conflict in Afghanistan as U.S. forces prepare to withdraw."

Algorithms for Verifying Deep Neural Networks

Algorithms for Verifying Deep Neural Networks

now publishers Inc

Neural networks have been widely used in many applications, such as image classification and understanding, language processing, and control of autonomous systems. These networks work by mapping inputs to outputs through a sequence of layers. At each layer, the input to that layer undergoes an affine transformation followed by a simple nonlinear transformation before being passed to the next layer. Neural networks are being used for increasingly important tasks, and in some cases, incorrect outputs can lead to costly consequences, hence validation of correctness at each layer is vital. The sheer size of the networks makes this not feasible using traditional methods. In this monograph, the authors survey a class of methods that are capable of formally verifying properties of deep neural networks. In doing so, they introduce a unified mathematical framework for verifying neural networks, classify existing methods under this framework, provide pedagogical implementations of existing methods, and compare those methods on a set of benchmark problems. Algorithms for Verifying Deep Neural Networks serves as a tutorial for students and professionals interested in this emerging field as well as a benchmark to facilitate the design of new verification algorithms.

Historien, mänsklighetens samlade erfarenheter, lär oss om nuet och framtiden. Hur är det möjligt att titta på händelser i det förflutna och med hjälp av dem lösa samtidens politiska eller ekonomiska förhållanden och konflikter? Essäerna i denna antologi härrör från Engelsbergsseminariet 2019 där dessa frågor diskuterades. Ur bland annat idéhistoriskt och evolutionspsykologiskt perspektiv tillämpar skribenterna historien på nutida företeelser som internationella relationer, geopolitik och nationalekonomi, individens roll och den mänskliga naturen. Kanske är det bara genom att tillämpa historien som vi hittar vägen framåt?
Mathematics Education in a Neocolonial Country: The Case of Papua New Guinea

Mathematics Education in a Neocolonial Country: The Case of Papua New Guinea

Most education research is undertaken in western developed countries. While some research from developing countries does make it into research journals from time to time, but these articles only emphasize the rarity of research in developing countries. The proposed book is unique in that it will cover education in Papua New Guinea over the millennia. Papua New Guinea’s multicultural society with relatively recent contact with Europe and the Middle East provides a cameo of the development of education in a country with both a colonial history and a coup-less transition to independence. Discussion will focus on specific areas of mathematics education that have been impacted by policies, research, circumstances and other influences, with particular emphasis on pressures on education in the last one and half centuries. This volume will be one of the few records of this kind in the education research literature as an in-depth record and critique of how school mathematics has been grown in Papua New Guinea from the late 1800s, and should be a useful addition to graduate programs mathematics education courses, history of mathematics, as well as the interdisciplinary fields of cross cultural studies, scholarship focusing on globalization and post / decolonialism, linguistics, educational administration and policy, technology education, teacher education, and gender studies.

Weather to Energy: A Complex Voyage synthesizes several vertically integrated disciplines, allowing new researchers to become involved in renewable energy studies. The book covers the basics needed to jump into the field, including sections on electrical load data and weather model data. The research on optimizing weather-driven renewable energies requires working knowledge of certain disciplines, such as economics, mathematics, atmospheric physics, statistics, fluid dynamics, power modeling and engineering. This book's aim is to inspire new research in renewable energy for interested scientists who may not have the required skills.

Henry Christophe and Thomas Clarkson: A Correspondence provides a detailed and illuminating exploration of the correspondence between Henry Christophe, the self-declared king of Haiti, and Thomas Clarkson, the renowned English abolitionist. Preserved in the British Museum, these letters shed light on Haitian history, particularly during Christophe’s reign in the early 19th century. The letters, remarkable for their clarity and coherence, reveal Christophe as a visionary monarch dedicated to improving his nation’s welfare, countering the common portrayal of him as a ruthless despot. Clarkson, on the other hand, emerges as a diligent and verbose writer, striving to foster understanding and collaboration despite the cultural and political chasm between them. The collection includes Christophe’s communications, his decrees reflecting administrative foresight, and vivid accounts of his tragic downfall, including his paralysis, suicide, and the subsequent dissolution of his kingdom. These writings highlight Christophe’s grand ambitions to uplift Haiti from poverty and ignorance to self-sufficient dignity. His rule, though marked by authoritarian measures, was aimed at creating a prosperous Black state in a post-slavery world. This correspondence, alongside historical context provided in the volume, not only enriches our understanding of Christophe’s complex legacy but also showcases Clarkson’s pivotal role in supporting Haiti’s development during a turbulent era.

Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1952.
