This book grew out of a conference organized by the German Historical Institute (GHI) on May 23-5, 1996, iii Berlin. For three days, thirty-five scholars from n\ne countries became acht-und-sechziger (sixty-eighters), not on the streets and barricades but in lively debate over the events and significance of the momentous year 1968. This book consists of revised versions of many of the original papers as well as entirely new essays that complement our overall theme. I thank all of the authors and also those who participated in the conference but whose work could not be included here. I am grateful to Carl-Ludwig Holtfrerich (Free University Berlin), Luisa Passerini (European University Institute, Florence), Keith A. Reader (University of Newcastle), and Dieter Rucht (Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin) for chairing the various sessions and for guiding us through spirited discussions. In Berlin, the Wissenschaftszentrum afforded a comfortable setting for three days of intensive debate. I thank Friedheim Neidhardt, the center'sdirector, and his dedicated staff - Birgit Hahn, Britta Heinrich, Ilse Kischlat, Dietmar Kremser, and Burckhard Wiebe - for hosting the conference and helping with its organization. Dieter Senoner of the mayor's office kindly welcomed us to Berlin at a reception at the Rotes Rathaus. Anneke de Rudder, who took us on a "1968 Walking Tour" through the German capital, gave us the opportunity to visit the key sites of that historic year.At the GHI, I thank Barbel Bernhardt, Christa Brown, Dieter Schneider, and Barbel Thomas - all of whom were involved in the organization before, during, and after the conference. Pamela Abraham tracked down the copyrights for the illustrations and assisted in assembling the manuscript. Daniel S. Mattern, the series editor at the Institute, deserves a special note of appreciation for guiding us through the difficult process of publishing this collection and for preparing a readable, clear, and concise manuscript. Frank Smith, the executive editor for social sciences at Cambridge University Press, took great interest in this project from the begin-IX X Preface ning and helped bring about its final shape. Further, I thank the two anonymous readers for their very useful critical evaluations of the manuscript. Finally, I thank my two coeditors. Carole Fink provided the original plan, which she presented to me at another GHI conference, in Berkeley, California, in May 1994. In subsequent discussions, we discovered that "1968" is a particularly well-suited topic for understanding the intellectual challenges that increasing global interdependence poses to historians of the twentieth century. We were later joined by Philipp Gassert, who worked with us to organize the conference and edit the book. I shall miss these last three and a half years of spirited collaboration among three very engaged historians. The topic of this book dovetails nicely with the efforts of the GHI in Washington to promote comparative research. In fact, most of the four to five international conferences the Institute rganizes annually are based on this perspective, comparing events, ideas, and structures in the United States and Europe. At times we have even taken a global perspective, with 1968: The World Traniformed being a case in point. In this age of globalization, historians should also become global players - at least mentally.

Книга Тараса Прохасько шалено поетична. Вона просочена якоюсь філософською меланхолією, але все таки оптимістична, мрійлива і красива. Вона, безумовно, «Ізі лістенінг», але навіть якщо комусь з книжкових черв'яків може здатися, що вона проста, то вони не зможуть спростувати факт створення Тарасом Прохасько доброго, пронизливого словесного коду, що зачаровує своєю чисто людською енергією. Ось так потрібно любити свою країну. Ось так потрібно писати про людей. Без політики, без ідеології, без обмеженої вузькості погляду. Але соковито, красиво, тонко відчуваючи свій Всесвіт, відчувши деталі своєї дійсності і її краси, деталі всього світу і мільйонів зірок, космосу і запаху яблук в божественному саду за межами видимих сфер. Голос за кадром в книзі Прохасько – це не конкретний персонаж з ярличком «українець» і набором стандартних системних вимог. Це Людина і його орган душевного відчуття, весь його осередок чуття, що увібрав в себе граничну увагу до навколишнього космосу. Сама ця позиція робить можливим сприйняття книги в будь-якій точці земної кулі. Хтось зрозуміє менше, хтось більше, але книга є людяною. Людяною в глобальному розумінні. Національність пропущена через «героя», а не «герой» через національність. Таким чином Прохасько створює універсальну мову достовірності. Поринаючи в «FM Галичина» хочеться жити, бо стільки ще не звідано. Не звідано не десь там в глибинах Африки, США або Європи. Незвідано тут, у тебе під носом. Увага до деталей, мікроколиванням навколишніх просторів – книга сіє в читачах сім'я великого дару відчувати світ глибше. Я сказав, що так потрібно любити свою країну? Все ж, швидше, так: - потрібно бути Людиною... (Анатолій Ульянов)

Wavelet theory originated from research activities in many areas of science and engineering. As a result, it finds applications in a wide range of practical problems. Wavelet techniques are specifically suited for nonstationary signals for which classic Fourier methods are ineffective. Based on courses taught by the authors at Texas A&M University as well as related conferences, Fundamentals of Wavelets is a textbook offering an up-to-date engineering approach to wavelet theory. It balances a discussion of wavelet theory and algorithms with its far-ranging practical applications in signal processing, image processing, electromagnetic wave scattering, and boundary value problems.

A one-to-one correspondence is established between Fourier transforms of ultradistribution semigroups in the sense of Beurling and some class of pseudoresolvents characterized by conditions concerning their domains of existence and growth

Open source resources are completely common within our society. Yet open source and free software remain a mystery. Science, public highways, city parks, language—these are at the core of any free society. Commerce gets built upon them. Culture flourishes through them. Yet the same ideas applied to software puzzle many people. Language can be free, and the results of science open to all, yet to many, software is, or should be, proprietary.

У теории групп три исторических корня: теория алгебраических уравнений, теория чисел и геометрия. Математики, стоящие у истоков теории групп, — это Леонард Эйлер, Карл Фридрих Гаусс, Жозеф Луи Лагранж, Нильс Хенрик Абель и Эварист Галуа. Галуа был первым математиком, связавшим теорию групп с другой ветвью абстрактной алгебры — теорией полей, разработав теорию, ныне называемую теорией Галуа.

Design Control Systems Using Modern Technologies and Techniques Process control has increased in importance in the process industries, driven by global competition, rapidly changing economic conditions, more stringent environmental and safety regulations, and the need for more flexible yet more complex processes to manufacture high value-added products. This long-awaited second edition of Dale Seborg, Thomas Edgar, and Duncan Mellichamp's Process Dynamic and Control reflects recent changes and advances in process control theory and technology. The authors have added new topics, and enhanced the presentation with a large number of new exercises and examples, many of which utilize MATLAB and Simulink.

As the application of object technology--particularly the Java programming language--has become commonplace, a new problem has emerged to confront the software development community. Significant numbers of poorly designed programs have been created by less-experienced developers, resulting in applications that are inefficient and hard to maintain and extend. Increasingly, software system professionals are discovering just how difficult it is to work with these inherited, "non-optimal" applications. For several years, expert-level object programmers have employed a growing collection of techniques to improve the structural integrity and performance of such existing software programs. Referred to as "refactoring," these practices have remained in the domain of experts because no attempt has been made to transcribe the lore into a form that all developers could use. . .until now. In Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Software, renowned object technology mentor Martin Fowler breaks new ground, demystifying these master practices and demonstrating how software practitioners can realize the significant benefits of this new process. With proper training a skilled system designer can take a bad design and rework it into well-designed, robust code. In this book, Martin Fowler shows you where opportunities for refactoring typically can be found, and how to go about reworking a bad design into a good one. Each refactoring step is simple--seemingly too simple to be worth doing. Refactoring may involve moving a field from one class to another, or pulling some code out of a method to turn it into its own method, or even pushing some code up or down a hierarchy. While these individual steps may seem elementary, the cumulative effect of such small changes can radically improve the design. Refactoring is a proven way to prevent software decay. In addition to discussing the various techniques of refactoring, Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Software provides a detailed catalog of more than seventy proven refactorings with helpful pointers that teach you when to apply them; step-by-step instructions for applying each refactoring; and an example illustrating how the refactoring works. The illustrative examples are written in Java, but the ideas are applicable to any object-oriented programming language.
