Introduction Conclusions References

Given the increased competitive pressures on manufacturing, many companies are interested in implementing Just-In-Time (JIT) manufacturing philosophies. At the shop floor level, one application of JIT is the introduction of kanbans in order to control in-process inventory. Traditionally, it has been argued that kanban systems work well when the shop floor environment is fairly stable. In this p...

SynthesizedTextures represent continuous-tone images with a small set of vectors and color profiles. This representation is not only efficient in terms of compression ratio but also serve as the basis of photorealistic animations in AFX. Unlike standard synthetic texture techniques, the SynthesizedTexture imaging starts with analysis of photorealistic images or video sequences and conversion to...

Analyses of 22,508 holoplanktonic chaetognaths collected at 21 stations were made from four oceanographic campaigns along the coasts of Quintana Roo, Mexico, in 1991 (Caribe I = February; Caribe II = March; Caribe III = May; Caribe IV= August). Unencysted larval didymozoid parasites were identifi ed as belonging to the Monilicaecum type because of the arrangement of the chambers of the heavily ...

In the framework of orbifold compactifications of heterotic and type II orientifolds, we study effective N = 1 supergravity potentials arising from fluxes and gaugino condensates. These string solutions display a broad phenomenology which we analyze using the method of N = 4 supergravity gaugings. We give examples in type II and heterotic compactifications of combined fluxes and condensates lea...

SQL:2003, die neuste Version der SQL-Norm, sieht erstmals die Unterstützung von XMLDaten vor. Damit wird es möglich, Tabellen mit XML-wertigen Spalten anzulegen. Der vorliegende Beitrag geht der Frage nach, welche prinzipiellen Möglichkeiten es für die Übergabe von XML-Werten zwischen Datenbanksystem und Anwendungsprogrammen gibt. Da die Eignung dieser Möglichkeiten von den Charakteristika der ...
