Introduction: Demographic Change and Its Implications -- Literature Review on Ageing Research -- Literature Review on Career Concepts and Learning in the Context of an Ageing Society -- Methodology and Research Design: A Qualitative Case Study of Middle-Aged Non-managerial Employees and Managers -- Results of the Qualitative Research - Changing Age and Career Concepts in the Austrian Banking Industry -- Discussion and Implications.

Sommario/riassunto

Demographic change is affecting societies and organizations alike. Although ageing is relevant to all, there is still a tendency for more negative stereotypes to be attributed to older individuals, while positive stereotypes are mainly associated with younger individuals. Further, there are indications of gendered ageism, showing that age prejudices are more likely to affect women. This book argues that, through holistic measures, human resources management is of fundamental importance to an age-friendly and non-age-discriminatory culture. It can be



assumed that awareness-raising on age issues also takes into account the gender issue. Drawing on qualitative interviews with employees in the Austrian banking industry and using an analytical framework, the author provides suggestions and implications for organizations to address this situation.

Sommario/riassunto

The vast majority of automatic controllers used to compensate industrial processes are PI or PID type. This book comprehensively compiles, using a unified notation, tuning rules for these controllers



proposed from 1935 to 2008. The tuning rules are carefully categorized and application information about each rule is given. The book discusses controller architecture and process modeling issues, as well as the performance and robustness of loops compensated with PI or PID controllers. This unique publication brings together in an easy-to-use format material previously published in a large number
