Das Wesen des Web-Engineering besteht darin, die Vielfalt und Komplexität der Web-Anwendungsentwicklung erfolgreich zu managen und daher potenzielle Fehler zu vermeiden, die schwerwiegende Folgen haben können. Viele Fehlschläge im Zusammenhang mit Web-Anwendungsprojekten sind die Folge eines mangelnden Bewusstseins für die damit verbundenen Risiken und eines schwachen Managements dieser Risiken. In dieser Hinsicht ist ein effektives Risikomanagement zum wesentlichen Faktor für den Erfolg des Web-Projektmanagements geworden. In diesem ...

When hydrogen leaks through holes in membrane-electrode assemblies (MEAs) in PEM fuel cells, it recombines directly with air. This recombination results in a reduction in oxygen concentration on the cathode side of the MEA. In this book, the signatures of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are measured and analyzed in a single and different multi-cell stack configurations to show the relation between hydrogen leak rate and reduced oxygen concentrations. A model that establishes a relationship between impedance and voltage was considered. Using this ...

This Violent Empire traces the origins of American violence, racism, and paranoia to the founding moments of the new nation and the initial instability of Americans' national sense of self. Fusing cultural and political analyses to create a new form of political history, Carroll Smith-Rosenberg explores the ways the founding generation, lacking a common history, governmental infrastructures, and shared culture, solidified their national sense of self by imagining a series of "Others" (African Americans, Native Americans, women, the propertyless) whose ...
