In der Dissertation wird ein Spezifikationsrahmen dargestellt, mit dem sich die Au?ensicht von (Software-) Komponenten in einer normierten und vollst?ndigen Weise beschreiben l?sst. Dazu werden verschiedene methodische Vorgaben geschaffen, mit denen sich die f?r die betriebliche...

Evaluation of the true relationship between costs and specialisation in hospitals is hindered by the lack of a standard measure. Specialised hospitals might produce at lower costs because their staff builds expertise and care is better organised. On the other hand specialised hospitals might be...

This paper provides an empirical analysis of the extent to which people in different occupations locate near one another, or coagglomerate. We construct pairwise Ellison-Glaeser coagglomeration indices for U.S. occupations and use these measures to investigate the factors influencing the...

The main goal of this article is to present a statistical study of decision tree learning algorithms based on the measures of different parametric entropies. Partial empirical evidence is presented to support the conjecture that the parameter adjusting of different entropy measures might bias...
