2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Multi-agent systems are already a focus of studies for more than 25 years. Despite substantial effort of an active research community, modeling of multi-agent systems still lacks complete and proper definition, general acceptance, and practical application. Due to the vast potential of these systems e.g. to improve the practice in software and to extent the applications that can feasibly be tackled, this book tries to provide a comprehensive modeling language - the Agent-Modeling Language (AML) - as an extension of UML 2.0, concentrating on multi-agent systems and applications.

Matt Ridley
The Agile Gene: How Nature Turns on Nurture

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the follow-up to his bestseller, Genome , Matt Ridley takes on a centuries-old question: is it nature or nurture that makes us who we are? Ridley asserts that the question itself is a `false dichotomy.` Using copious examples from human and animal behavior, he presents the notion that our environment affects the way our genes express themselves. Ridley writes that the switches controlling our 30,000 or so genes not only form the structures of our brains but do so in such a way as to cue off the outside environment in a tidy feedback loop of body and behavior. In fact, it seems clear that we have genetic `thermostats` that are turned up and down by environmental factors. He challenges both scientific and folk concepts, from assumptions of what`s malleable in a person to sociobiological theories based solely on the `selfish gene.` Ridley`s proof is in the pudding for such touchy subjects as monogamy, aggression, and parenting, which we now understand have some… [detailed...]

The Agile Virtual Enterprise : Cases, Metrics, Tools

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: New ways to manage change and to compete in a rapidly changing business world are emerging under the concept of the agile enterprise. Agile organizations can be almost any size or type, but what distinguishes them from their lumbering traditional business counterparts is the ability to read the environment and to react quickly. They can also be `virtual,` meaning they can reconfigure themselves quickly and temporarily in response to a challenge, which gives them agility, but then dissolve or transmute themselves into something else. Goranson explains how they do this and how your own organization can do it too. With fascinating case studies and a unique metric, Goranson provides insightful and timely answers. The result is essential reading for management at almost any level within every type of organization. [detailed...]

Description: The Airline Industry is currently faced with its longest and deepest crisis to date: many of them are losing hundred of millions of US dollars, several have collapsed entirely, whilst others have had to be rescued by their governments.

Special attention is paid to the key challenges faced by the airlines such as continued liberalisation and `open skies`, the impacts of global alliances, new low-cost and no-frills carriers, on-line selling and distribution, privatization and the impact of disasters.
