TY - BOOK A1 - Van Leeuwen, Peter Jan A1 - Cheng, Yuan A1 - Reich, Sebastian T1 - Nonlinear data assimilation T3 - Frontiers in applied dynamical systems: reviews and tutorials ; 2 N2 - This book contains two review articles on nonlinear data assimilation that deal with closely related topics but were written and can be read independently. Both contributions focus on so-called particle filters. The first contribution by Jan van Leeuwen focuses on the potential of proposal densities. It discusses the issues with present-day particle filters and explorers new ideas for proposal densities to solve them, converging to particle filters that work well in systems of any dimension, closing the contribution with a high-dimensional example. The second contribution by Cheng and Reich discusses a unified framework for ensemble-transform particle filters. This allows one to bridge successful ensemble Kalman filters with fully nonlinear particle filters, and allows a proper introduction of localization in particle filters, which has been lacking up to now.

En los cuatro apartados del volumen, sus autores se ocupan de la teoría del género y la historia del micorrelato literario; analizan la intertextualidad del nuevo género; interpretan una serie de minificciones literarias de autoras y autores hispanoamericanos y españoles; y consideran otras formas de lo micromediático, los litblogs, la producción de microrrelatos en las redes sociales, y las minificciones cinematográficas.

Does international human rights law modify other fields of international law? Contributions focus on possible spillover effects of human rights on international economic or international criminal law. Does international human rights law have a streamlining effect on international law as a whole? This might be identified as a process of constitutionalisation. In this book, human rights can be understood as one of the core principles of international legal order and thus have an effect on the general law of treaties or on the settlement of disputes. Although human rights law is a relatively young field of international law, its content and core values today are of major importance for the interpretation of international law as a whole. As we witness a redefinition of sovereignty as a responsibility of states towards the people and a shift to greater relevance of the individual in international law in general, it is a logical consequence that human rights have an impact on other areas of international law.

The authors show that speakers build their responses in a variety of ways: the responses can be longer or shorter, repetitive or not, and can be uttered with different intonational 'melodies'"-- "Drawing on everyday telephone and video interactions, this book surveys how English speakers use grammar to formulate responses in ordinary conversation. The authors show that speakers build their responses in a variety of ways: the responses can be longer or shorter, repetitive or not, and can be uttered with different intonational 'melodies'. Focusing on four sequence types: responses to questions ('What time are we leaving?' - 'Seven'), responses to informings ('The May Company are sure having a big sale' - 'Are they?'), responses to assessments ('Track walking is so boring. Even with headphones' - 'It is'), and responses to requests ('Please don't tell Adeline' - 'Oh no I won't say anything'), they argue that an interactional approach holds the key to explaining why some types of utterances in English conversation seem to have something 'missing' and others seem overly wordy.

Press CY - Cambridge ER - TY - BOOK ED - Malreddy, Pavan Kumar ED - Heidemann, Birte ED - Larsen, Ole Birk ED - Wilson, Janet T1 - Reworking postcolonialism BT - globalization, labour and rights N2 - An interdisciplinary collection of essays, Reworking Postcolonialism explores questions of work, precarity, migration, minority and indigenous rights in relation to contemporary globalization. It focuses on the impact of global market forces on the formation of new subject positions among urban dwellers, exiles, and other disenfranchised communities. Bringing together political, economic and literary approaches to texts and events from across the postcolonial world, the essays collected here investigate the transformative effects of the global dissemination of capital and goods and the movements of people. They call for a revision of existing discourses on rights, entitlements and citizenship.

In particular, the authors show the substantial changes introduced in S4/HANA by switching to SAP HANA. Using numerous examples and use cases from the authors' wealth of real-world experience, it illustrates the quantum leap in performance made possible by the new technology. The book is written by two of the most prominent actors in the area of business application systems: Hasso Plattner, co-founder of SAP and inaugurator of the Hasso Plattner Institute at the University of Potsdam, and Bernd Leukert, member of the Executive Board and the Global Managing Board of SAP. This clearly structured, highly illustrated book takes an exciting new technology and presents the practicality and success of first mover applications.
