Kennzahlenbasierte Abschlussanalyse:
Ein Vergleich auf der Basis von Jahres- und Konzernabschlüssen ausgewählter deutscher Unternehmen
Deutsch | 2023 | ISBN: 3110770385 | 589 Pages | EPUB | 3.3 MB

Wer Finanzberichte von Unternehmen auswerten möchte, muss sich vorab einigen Grundsatzfragen stellen. Sind die Jahres- oder die Konzernabschlüsse die richtige Datenbasis? Liefern HGB- oder IFRS-Abschlüsse relevante und glaubwürdige Daten? Sind diese vergleichbar oder kann man sie vergleichbar machen? Welche bilanzpolitischen Ziele und Gestaltungen sind möglich und wie beeinflussen diese die Datenqualität? Erst dann kann eine fundierte Kennzahlenanalyse realisiert werden. Das Buch liefert theoretische und empirisch fundierte Grundlagen für eine umfassende Kennzahlenanalyse, die zugleich strikt anwendungsorientiert bleibt. Hierzu müssen die Rohdaten aus den Finanzberichten aufbereitet werden, um zielgerichtet aussagefähige Kennzahlen ermitteln und vergleichen zu können. Dies wird anhand der HGB-Jahresabschlüsse und der IFRS-Konzernabschlüsse über sechs Jahre für drei ausgewählte Unternehmen aus dem DAX30 vorgestellt, sodass ein Zeit- und Unternehmensvergleich möglich ist. Ergänzend werden aktuelle und komplexe Sonderthemen erläutert, die für Kennzahlenanalysen besonders relevant sind.

Benedict F Giamo, "Kerouac, the Word and the Way: Prose Artist as Spiritual Quester"
English | 2000 | pages: 273 | ISBN: 0809323214, 0809324318 | PDF | 1,5 mb
Jack Kerouac, a "ragged priest of the word" according to Ben Giamo, embarked on a spiritual quest "for the ultimate meaning of existence and suffering, and the celebration of joy in the meantime." For Kerouac, the quest was a sustained and creative experiment in literary form. Intuitive and innovative, Kerouac created prose styles that reflected his search for personal meaning and spiritual intensity. These styles varied from an exuberant brand of conventional narrative (On the Road, The Dharma Bums, and Desolation Angels) to spontaneous bop prosody (Visions of Cody.Doctor Sax, and The Subterraneans). Giamo's primary purpose is to chronicle and clarify Kerouac's various spiritual quests through close examinations of the novels. Kerouac began his quest with On the Road, which also is Giamo's real starting point. To establish early themes, spiritual struggles, and stylistic shifts, however, Giamo begins with the first novel, Town and Country, and ends with Big Sur, the final turning point in Kerouac's quest.

Kerouac was primarily a religious writer bent on testing and celebrating the profane depths and transcendent heights of experience and reporting both truly. Baptized and buried a Catholic, he was also heavily influenced by Buddhism, especially from 1954 until 1957 when he integrated traditional Eastern belief into several novels. Catholicism remained an essential force in his writing, but his study of Buddhism was serious and not solely in the service of his literary art. As he wrote to Malcolm Cowley in 1954, "Since I saw you I took up the study of Buddhism and for me it's the word and the way I was looking for."
Giamo also seeks IT―"a vital force in the experience of living that takes one by surprise, suspending for the moment belief in the 'real' concrete grey everyday of facts of self and selfhood . . . its various meanings, paths, and oscillations: from romantic lyricism to 'the ragged and ecstatic joy of pure being and from the void-pit of the Great World Snake to the joyous pain of amorous love, and, finally, from Catholic/Buddhist serenity to the onset of penitential martyrhood."

Kill Box: Military Drone Systems and Cultural Production (Off the Fence: Morality, Politics and Society) by Alex Adams
English | December 17, 2024 | ISBN: 1538189828 | 168 pages | PDF | 2.79 Mb
Drone warfare represents one of the most pressing moral and political problems of contemporary military ethics. Since the beginning of the American drone program in the late twentieth century, drone technologies have been used to conduct remote extrajudicial assassinations, to violate national sovereignty, and to conduct intrusive surveillance in contravention of international human rights norms, among other controversial uses. Today, military drones are used by dozens of military forces. As such, these technologies pose urgent questions which problematize well-established ways of thinking about central aspects of the ethics of warfare, such as justice, sovereignty, battlefield trauma, the political and physical limits of conflict, and, perhaps most prominently of all, the legitimacy of military violence. Though some of these concerns are well-worn, their central role in - and reconfiguration by - drone warfare means that they deserve serious reconsideration.

Kill Box investigates this urgent conceptual territory through readings of the popular cultural productions that have emerged as a part of these debates, and reveals the ways in which narrative texts have been an integral part of the framing of these political and philosophical conversations. Examining well-known single-issue drone texts, such as Eye in the Sky, Good Kill, and The Drone Eats with Me, alongside lesser known texts, such as pulp novels, genre sci-fi, and Netflix thrillers, this new book shows us the surprisingly versatile and elastic ways in which drone discourse continues to be co-constituted by narrative entertainment.

Kin of Another Kind : Transracial Adoption in American Literature By Cynthia Callahan
2010 | 200 Pages | ISBN: 0472117580 | EPUB | 1 MB
"The study of transracial adoption has long been dominated by historians, legal scholars, and social scientists, but with the growth of the lively field of humanistic adoption studies comes a growing understanding of the importance of cultural representations to the social meanings and even the practices of adoption itself . . . This book makes a valuable contribution in showing how important the theme of adoption has been throughout the twentieth century in representations of race relations, and in showing that the adoption theme has served to challenge racial norms as well as uphold them." ---Margaret Homans, Yale University The subject of transracial adoption seems to be enjoying unprecedented media attention of late, particularly as white celebrities have made headlines by adopting children of color from overseas. But interest in transracial adoption is nothing new---it has long occupied a space in the public imagination, a space disproportionate with the number of people actually adopted across racial lines. Even before World War II, when transracial adoption was neither legally nor socially sanctioned, American authors wrote about it, often depicting it as an "accident"---the result of racial ambiguity that prevented adopters from knowing who is white or black. After World War II, as the real-world practice of transracial and international adoption increased, American literary representations of it became an index not only of the changing cultural attitudes toward adoption as a way of creating families but also of the social issues that informed it and made it, at times, controversial. Kin of Another Kind examines the appearance of transracial adoption in American literature at certain key moments from the turn of the twentieth century to the turn of the twenty-first to help understand its literary and social significance to authors and readers alike. In juxtaposing representations of African American, American Indian, and Korean and Chinese adoptions across racial (and national) lines, Kin of Another Kind traces the metaphorical significance of adoption when it appears in fiction. At the same time, aligning these groups calls attention to their unique and divergent cultural histories with adoption, which serve as important contexts for the fiction discussed in this study. The book explores the fiction of canonical authors such as William Faulkner and Toni Morrison and places it alongside lesser-known works by Robert E. Boles, Dallas Chief Eagle (Lakota), and Sui Sin Far that, when reconsidered, can advance our understanding both of adoption in literature and of twentieth-century American literature in general. Kin of Another Kind will appeal to students and scholars in adoption in literature, American literature, and comparative multiethnic literatures. It adds to the growing body of work on adoption in literature, which focuses on orphancy and adoption in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Cynthia Callahan is Assistant Professor in the Department of English at Ohio State University, Mansfield.

Eva Horn, "Klima: Eine Wahrnehmungsgeschichte"
Deutch | ISBN: 3103974329 | 2024 | 607pages | EPUB | 21 MB
Die Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaftlerin Eva Horn nimmt das Klima in ihrer Imaginations- und Wissensgeschichte aus einer sinnlichen, kulturellen und historischen Perspektive in den Blick.

Was ist Klima? Wenn wir heutzutage über das Klima sprechen, tun wir dies vor allem aus einer naturwissenschaftlichen Perspektive. Wir können Klima messen und berechnen, aber nicht unmittelbar erfahren. Bevor Klima als durchschnittliches Wetter definiert wurde, war das jedoch einmal ganz anders.
Eva Horn knüpft an ein scheinbar ad acta gelegtes Wissen über das Klima an und zeigt, welche enge Verbindung zwischen Kulturen und ihrem Klima einmal bestanden hat. Von Theorien über den Einfluss von Luft und Temperatur auf Körper und Seele über das Bild des Luftmeers bis zu den Phantasien kontrollierter Klimata: Unter Rückgriff auf Medizingeschichte, Philosophie, Kunst und Literatur entwirft Eva Horn eine große Imaginationsgeschichte des Klimas, die die Debatte um die Klimakrise neu begründen und unser atmosphärisches Sensorium schulen kann.
All ihre Essays verbinden Wissenschaftsgeschichte mit Literatur und Kunst. Die politische Perspektive verliert sie dabei nie aus dem Blick. Ihr Schreiben ist politische Publizistik aus der Begründung der Jury des Heinrich-Mann-Preises 2020

Knowing the Truth about Education By Daniel Wentland
2015 | 97 Pages | ISBN: 1475820186 | EPUB | 1 MB
The truth is often hard to face, but if educators and politicians continue to avoid the realities associated with the educational process, then enormous amounts of time and energy will continue to be spent chasing a variety of educational illusions. Daniel Wentland meshes economics, psychology, philosophy, and common sense in proposing a pathway for leaders to follow if they really want to improve education in America. The information in this book moves the educational process off the nowhere track and onto the reality track where the educational system can become an effective mechanism for improving learning. Wentland's blueprint for change is one that needs to be listened to by education policy makers and practitioners everywhere. The question now becomes, who wants to see reality?

Knowledge Recommendation Systems with Machine Intelligence Algorithms: People and Innovations by Jarosław Protasiewicz
English | October 2, 2023 | ISBN: 3031326954 | 143 pages | MOBI | 8.37 Mb
Knowledge recommendation is an timely subject that is encountered frequently in research and information services. A compelling and urgent need exists for such systems: the modern economy is in dire need of highly-skilled professionals, researchers, and innovators, who create opportunities to gain competitive advantage and assist in the management of financial resources and available goods, as well as conducting fundamental and applied research more effectively.This book takes readers on a journey into the world of knowledge recommendation, and of systems of knowledge recommendation that use machine intelligence algorithms. It illustrates knowledge recommendation using two examples. The first is the recommendation of reviewers and experts who can evaluate manuscripts of academic articles, or of research and development project proposals. The second is innovation support, which involves bringing science and business together by recommending information that pertains to innovations, projects, prospective partners, experts, and conferences meaningfully.

The book also describes the selection of the algorithms that transform data into information and then into knowledge, which is then used in the information systems. More specifically, recommendation and information extraction algorithms are used to acquire data, classify publications, identify (disambiguate) their authors, extract keywords, evaluate whether enterprises are innovative, and recommend knowledge.This book comprises original work and is unique in many ways. The systems and algorithms it presents are informed by contemporary solutions described in the literature - including many compelling, novel, and original aspects. The new and promising directions the book presents, as well as the techniques of machine learning applied to knowledge recommendation, are all original.

Knowledge Workers in Contemporary China : Reform and Resistance in the Publishing Industry By Jianhua Yao
2014 | 205 Pages | ISBN: 0739186647 | EPUB | 1 MB
Knowledge Workers in Contemporary China: Reform, and Resistance in the Publishing Industry concentrates on the trajectories of the labor process transformation of knowledge workers, mainly editors, in the Chinese publishing industry. The book focuses on their changing social, economic, and political roles; their dilemmas, challenges, and opportunities associated with current social reform; and China's integration into the global political economy. At its core, the book addresses three different yet interrelated processes of the political economy of communication: commodification, structuration, and spatialization in the Chinese publishing industry. It examines whether worker organizations and trade unions are effective in presenting editors' legitimate rights and interests in current publishing reform. Through the political economic analysis of knowledge workers in China's publishing industry, Jianhua Yao helps readers better understand the broader social and economic transformations, specifically the network of power relations and institutional contexts in which Chinese editors are situated, that have been taking place in China since the late 1970s.

Knowledge-Based Project Management with the Help of AI and Cloud Techniques: Systematic Reuse of Experience-Based Knowledge about Safety-Critical IT Projects Based on Ontologies, Case-Based Reasoning and Word2Vec
by Stephan Zelewski, Ganen Sethupathy
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3832559027 | 280 Pages | PDF | 12.9 MB

In safety-critical IT projects, the success of which is crucial to public safety, the failure of an IT system can have far-reaching consequences. In practice, however, the reuse of valuable experience-based knowledge, which is often available in natural language and on different IT systems or in physical documents, poses a considerable challenge. If this experience-based knowledge is not taken into account, the consequences can be serious and lead to high additional costs and considerable project delays. One possible approach to solving these problems lies at the interface of business administration, business informatics and computer science. This approach combines the previously separate disciplines of project management, knowledge management and artificial intelligence (AI). It shows how proven "traditional" AI techniques, especially ontologies and case-based reasoning, can be used effectively in safety-critical IT projects. By combining ontology-supported case-based reasoning with artificial neural networks for the "modern" Word2Vec technique, a cloud-based software is designed that can be used to significantly improve the reuse of experience-based knowledge in safety-critical IT projects. The article presented here shows how the combination of traditional and modern AI techniques can provide a key to the systematic reuse of mission-critical experience-based knowledge in IT projects.

Korean and Korean American Life Writing in Hawai'i : From the Land of the Morning Calm to Hawai'i Nei By Heui-Yung Park
2015 | 197 Pages | ISBN: 1498507670 | EPUB | 1 MB
Korean and Korean American Life Writing in Hawai'i examines such self-representing genres as lyric poems, oral history, autobiography, and memoirs written by Korean and Korean Americans from the early twentieth century to the present, in order to explore how these people have shaped their individual or collective identities. Their representations, produced in different periods by successive generations, reveal how Koreans in their diaspora to Hawai'i came to terms with their ethnic and local selves, and also how the sense of who and what they are changed over the years, both within and beyond the initial generation. Looking into their individual and collective identities in lyric poems, oral history, autobiography, and memoirs reveals how the earliest arrivals, their children, and their grandchildren have come to terms with their national, ethnic, and local selves, and how their sense of identity changes over the course of time, both within and beyond the initial generation. In the lyric poems found in Korean-language periodicals of the native-born generation, we can trace the significance of the motherland and Hawai'i for these writers' sense of identity. The oral histories of first-generation women, most of whom arrived as picture brides, also represent another "us": often vulnerable Koreans who define themselves in relation to both the present culture and to Korean men. The self developed by the second-, third-, and in-between-generation Koreans diversifies because their identity is not defined exclusively by their ancestral land, extending to Hawai'i and to America. This study focuses on three main areas of emphasis: Hawai'i; Korean language and culture; and life writing. By tracing how identity changes with each generation, this study reveals how identity formation for Hawai'i diasporic Koreans has evolved.

Deanna Bonner-Ganter, "Kosti Ruohomaa: The Photographer Poet"
English | ISBN: 1608934950 | 2016 | 400 pages | EPUB | 28 MB
Acclaimed photographer Kosti Ruohomaa is widely known for his photographs of hard scrabble Yankees in mid-century Maine. No one was more acutely aware than Ruohomaa that his work was capturing a way of life that was rapidly fading. Before his work in Maine, however, Ruohomaa started out with Disney, then went on to become a freelance photographer for the Black Star Agency, where he was a regular contributor to Life, National Geographic, Look, and Ladies Home Journal. His true passion, however, was documenting the lives of the people of Maine. In this biography by curator Deanna Bonner-Ganter, of the Maine State Museum, Kosti's life and work is made relevant and important to an audience that may be unfamiliar with his work.
