Specialists in the study of inscriptions, architecture, sculpture, coins, tombs, pottery, and texts collaborate to produce new portraits of religion and society in the ancient city of Corinth. The studies focus on groups like the early Roman colonists, the Augustales (priests of Augustus), or the Pauline house churches; on specific cults such as those of Asklepios, Demeter, or the Sacred Spring; on media (e.g., coins, or burial inscriptions); or on the monuments and populations of nearby Kenchreai or Isthmia. The result is a deeper understanding of the religious life of Corinth, contextualized within the socially stratified cultures of the Hellenistic and Roman periods. 410 0$aSupplements to Novum Testamentum ;$vv. 134. 606 $aReligion and sociology$zGreece$zCorinth$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aChristian sociology$zGreece$zCorinth$xHistory$yEarly church, ca. 30-600$vCongresses 606 $aChristian antiquities$zGreece$zCorinth$vCongresses 607 $aCorinth (Greece)$xReligion$vCongresses 607 $aCorinth (Greece)$xChurch history$vCongresses 607 $aCorinth (Greece)$xAntiquities$vCongresses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aReligion and sociology$xHistory 615 0$aChristian sociology$xHistory 615 0$aChristian antiquities 676 $a200.938/7 701 $aFriesen$b Steven J$0173275 701 $aSchowalter$b Daniel N.$f1957-$0870446 701 $aWalters$b James C$g(James Christopher)$0974106 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460167603321 996 $aCorinth in context$92217499 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04847oam 2200733I 450 001 9910778924703321 005 20230126202917.0 010 $a1-136-51884-3 010 $a1-136-51885-1 010 $a0-203-15229-8 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203152294 035 $a(CKB)2550000000097235 035 $a(EBL)956923 035 $a(OCoLC)798532611 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000678506 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11482558 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000678506 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10727719 035 $a(PQKB)10845961 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL956923 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10545645 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL499753 035 $a(OCoLC)1000440597 035 $a(CaSebORM)9780415897136 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC956923 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000097235 100 $a20180706d2012 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aNew public governance, the third sector and co-production /$fedited by Victor Pestoff, Taco Brandsen and Bram Verschuere 210 1$aNew York, N.Y. :$cRoutledge,$d2012. 215 $a1 online resource (423 p.) 225 1 $aRoutledge critical studies in public management ;$v7 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-138-95207-9 311 $a0-415-89713-0 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aNew Public Governance, the Third Sector and Co-Production; Copyright; Contents; List of Tables; List of Figures; Foreword; 1 Co-Production as a Maturing Concept; PART I What Is Co-Production?

Several of these efforts have employed the concept of co-production to better understand and explain this trend. This book aims to go further by systematizing the growing body of academic papers and reports that focus on various aspects of co-production and its potential contribution to new public governance. It has an interdisciplinary focus that makes a unique contribution to the body of knowledge in this fie 410 0$aRoutledge critical studies in public management ;$v7. 606 $aPublic administration 606 $aNonprofit organizations 606 $aPublic-private sector cooperation 606 $aSocial participation 615 0$aPublic administration. 615 0$aNonprofit organizations. 615 0$aPublic-private sector cooperation. 615 0$aSocial participation. 676 $a338.6/3 701 $aBrandsen$b Taco$01145124 701 $aPestoff$b Victor Alexis$01145125 701 $aVerschuere$b Bram$f1977-$01506808 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778924703321 996 $aNew public governance, the third sector and co-production$93737192 997 $aUNINA LEADER 07192nam 2200685 450 001 9910831035903321 005 20240219135810.0 010 $a0-470-65345-0 010 $a1-280-82671-1 010 $a9786610826711 010 $a0-470-10628-X 010 $a0-470-10627-1 024 7 $a10.1002/047010628X 035 $a(CKB)1000000000355616 035 $a(EBL)290455 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000161559 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11180709 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000161559 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10198023 035 $a(PQKB)10428188 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC290455 035 $a(CaBNVSL)mat05237622 035 $a(IDAMS)0b00006481095a22 035 $a(IEEE)5237622 035 $a(OCoLC)123502484 035 $a(PPN)267789076 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000355616 100 $a20070425h20152007 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGenetic algorithms in electromagnetics /$fRandy L.

It offers expert guidance to optimizing electromagnetic systems using genetic algorithms (GA), which have proven to be tenacious in finding optimal results where traditional techniques fail. Genetic Algorithms in Electromagnetics begins with an introduction to optimization and several commonly used numerical optimization routines, and goes on to feature: . Introductions to GA in both binary and continuous variable forms, complete with examples of MATLAB(r) commands. Two step-by-step examples of optimizing antenna arrays as well as a comprehensive overview of applications of GA to antenna array design problems. Coverage of GA as an adaptive algorithm, including adaptive and smart arrays as well as adaptive reflectors and crossed dipoles. Explanations of the optimization of several different wire antennas, starting with the famous "crooked monopole". How to optimize horn, reflector, and microstrip patch antennas, which require significantly more computing power than wire antennas. Coverage of GA optimization of scattering, including scattering from frequency selective surfaces and electromagnetic band gap materials. Ideas on operator and parameter selection for a GA. Detailed explanations of particle swarm optimization and multiple objective optimization. An appendix of MATLAB code for experimentation. 606 $aAntenna arrays$xDesign 606 $aElectromagnetism$xMathematical models 606 $aGenetic algorithms 615 0$aAntenna arrays$xDesign. 615 0$aElectromagnetism$xMathematical models. 615 0$aGenetic algorithms. 676 $a537.015197 676 $a621.30285/631 676 $a621.30285631 700 $aHaupt$b Randy L$0319599 701 $aWerner$b Douglas H.$f1960-$0845932 801 0$bCaBNVSL 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910831035903321 996 $aGenetic algorithms in electromagnetics$91888854 997 $aUNINA
