Including numerous examples, the book details important linear, nonlinear harmonic balance, transient, and noise analysis techniques. Moreover, the book shows engineers how to apply these techniques to a wide range of oscillators. Professionals gain the knowledge needed to create unique designs that elegantly match their specification needs. Over 350 illustrations and more than 200 equations support key topics throughout the book."--Jacket.Artech House microwave library.Harmonic oscillatorsDesignOscillators, ElectricDesignHarmonic oscillatorsDesign.Oscillators, ElectricDesign.621.381533Rhea Randall W727348MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911105610203321Discrete oscillator design4754523UNINA02861oam 2200613 c 450 991110148010332120260802090127.03-8382-7430-X9783838274300(CKB)4100000011431435(MiAaPQ)EBC6335869(PPN)253736528(ibidem)9783838274300(EXLCZ)99410000001143143520260802d2020 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierHow Corruption and Anti-Corruption Policies Sustain Hybrid Regimes Strategies of Political Domination under Ukraine’s Presidents in 1994-2014 /Oksana Huss, Andreas Umland, Tobias Debiel, Andrea Gawrich1st ed.Hannoveribidem20201 online resource (407 pages) illustrationsSoviet and Post-Soviet Politics and Society2189783838214306 Includes bibliographical references.Leaders of hybrid regimes in pursuit of political domination and material gain instrumentalize both hidden forms of corruption and public anti-corruption policies. Corruption is pursued for different purposes including cooperation with strategic partners and exclusion of opponents. Presidents use anti-corruption policies to legitimize and institutionalize political domination. Corrupt practices and anti-corruption policies become two sides of the same coin and are exercised to maintain an uneven political playing field. This study combines empirical analysis and social constructivism for an investigation into the presidencies of Leonid Kuchma (1994–2005), Viktor Yushchenko (2005–2010), and Viktor Yanukovych (2010–2014). Explorative expert interviews, press surveys, content analysis of presidential speeches, as well as critical assessment of anti-corruption legislation are used for comparison and process tracing of the utilization of corruption under three Ukrainian presidents.UkraineKorruptioncorruptionHybrid regimeHybride RegimePolitical regimePolitische SystemeUkraineKorruptioncorruptionHybrid regimeHybride RegimePolitical regimePolitische Systeme378.1662Hus Oksanaaut1998300Umland AndreasedtDebiel TobiasauiGawrich AndreaauiMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911101480103321How Corruption and Anti-Corruption Policies Sustain Hybrid Regimes4779762UNINA04189nam 2200589 a 450 991115023390332120251117074010.097866120309259781912234356191223435197812820309231282030922(CKB)2430000000015780(EBL)3111179(Au-PeEL)EBL3111179(CaPaEBR)ebr10594062(CaONFJC)MIL203092(OCoLC)883155956(MiAaPQ)EBC3111179(Perlego)1304405(BIP)14671674(EXLCZ)99243000000001578020080929d2006 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBridging the digital divide innovation systems for ICT in Brazil, China, India, Thailand, and Southern Africa /edited by Angathevar Baskaran and Mammo Muchie1st ed.London Adonis & Abbey20061 online resource (254 p.)Description based upon print version of record.9781905068807 1905068808 Includes bibliographical references and index.""Table of Contents""; ""ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS""; ""PREFACE""; ""CHAPTER 1""; ""CHAPTER 2 Innovation System for ICT: The Case of Brazil""; ""CHAPTER 3 Innovation System for ICT: The Case of China""; ""CHAPTER 4 Innovation System for ICT: The Case of India""; ""CHAPTER 5 Innovation System for ICT: The Case of Thailand""; ""CHAPTER 6 Innovation System for ICT: The Case of South Africa""; ""CHAPTER 7 Innovation Systems for ICT: The Case of Southern African Countries""; ""CHAPTER 8 General Conclusions: Innovation Systems for ICT - Implications for the Less Developing Economies""; ""Index"""The impressive advances of information and communication technologies (ICT) in some Asian countries have led some people to proclaim a fundamental change in the world economy. The authors and editors have made an admirable contribution to make such an evaluation and fill a big gap in our knowledge..One of the many good features of this evaluation is that it takes into account the specific relationship of ICT with the wider social and economic system and the national system of innovation of each country." Christopher Freeman, Emeritus Professor and Founding Director of the Science Policy Research Unit (SPRU), University of Sussex, Brighton, UK. "Running across the informative chapters on the diverse experience of several important countries with ICT is a unifying theory of what it takes for successful economic development in today's globalized economy... The case studies show different countries wrestling with the problem, some doing better and some worse. This is a fascinating and important book." Richard R. Nelson, George Blumenthal Professor (Emeritus) of International and Public Affairs, Business, and Law, Columbia University, New York, USA. "This book is important because it gives insight into the role of ICT and ICT policy in the most important emerging economies in the world." Bent ke Lundvall, Professor of Economics, Aalborg, University, Denmark. This book was selected as Book of the Month in March 2006 by the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at John F Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University, USA. It has been endorsed by some of the leading thinkers in the field, including two Nobel prize nominees in economics. It is also listed as a resource on the world Bank's website. A section of it has been licensed by the Open University UK for its worldwide course on technology.Information technologyInformation technologyDeveloping countriesInformation technology.Information technology303.4833Baskaran Angathevar1612893Muchie Mammo1612894MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911150233903321Bridging the digital divide4866771UNINA
