Auf der Reise durch das dynamische Meer organisatorischen Wandels navigiert "Agile Change" von Markus Schneider gekonnt zwischen den traditionellen Klippen des Ver nderungsmanagements und den innovativen Str mungen agiler Methoden. Dieses bahnbrechende Werk bietet eine tiefgreifende Analyse der Evolution des nderungsmanagements - von seinen Wurzeln in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts bis hin zur revolution ren Wirkung agiler Prinzipien, die ber die Grenzen der Softwareentwicklung hinausgehen. In "Agile Change" werden Leser eingeladen, die transformative Kraft agiler Methoden zu erkunden, die Organisationen bef higen, sich rasch an ver ndernde Umgebungen anzupassen und kontinuierliche Verbesserung und Engagement zu f rdern. Durch eine umfassende Gegen berstellung traditioneller und agiler Ans tze des nderungsmanagements entlarvt Schneider die M ngel linearer Strategien und hebt die Vorteile eines iterativen, kollaborativen Prozesses hervor, der auf Anpassungsf higkeit, Stakeholder-Einbindung und Qualit tsfokus setzt. Das Buch stellt nicht nur die Theorie dar, sondern taucht tief in die Praxis ein, indem es reale Fallstudien erfolgreicher agiler Transformationen untersucht. Es bietet Einblicke in die Herausforderungen und L sungsstrategien bei der Implementierung agiler nderungsmanagements und zeigt auf, wie Widerst nde berwunden, die Unternehmenskultur angepasst und die Ausrichtung auf gemeinsame Ziele gef rdert werden kann. "Agile Change" dient als Kompass f r F hrungskr fte, Change Agents und alle, die in das unruhige Wasser organisatorischer Transformationen eintauchen m chten. Es r stet sie mit dem notwendigen Wissen, den F higkeiten und der Inspiration aus, um agile Prinzipien wirksam anzuwenden und ihre Organisationen auf dem Pfad zu dauerhaftem Erfolg und Wachstum zu f hren. In "Agile Change" werden Leser eingeladen, die transformative Kraft agiler Methoden zu erkunden, die Organisationen bef higen, sich rasch an ver ndernde Umgebungen anzupassen und ko

This book explores the concept of a map as a fundamental data type. It defines maps at three levels. The first is an abstract level, in which mathematic concepts are leveraged to precisely explain maps and operational semantics. The second is at a discrete level, in which graph theory is used to create a data model with the goal of implementation in computer systems. Finally, maps are examined at an implementation level, in which the authors discuss the implementation of a fundamental map data type in database systems. The map data type presented in this book creates new mechanisms for the storage, analysis, and computation of map data objects in any field that represents data in a map form. The authors develop a model that includes a map data type capable of representing thematic and geometric attributes in a single data object. The book provides a complete example of mathematically defining a data type, ensuring closure properties of those operations, and then translating that type into a state that is suited for implementation in a particular context. The book is designed for researchers and professionals working in geography or computer science in a range of fields including navigation, reasoning, robotics, geospatial analysis, data management, and information retrieval.

Moving Objects Databases is the first uniform treatment of moving objects databases, the technology that supports GPS and RFID. It focuses on the modeling and design of data from moving objects — such as people, animals, vehicles, hurricanes, forest fires, oil spills, armies, or other objects — as well as the storage, retrieval, and querying of that very voluminous data. It includes homework assignments at the end of each chapter, exercises throughout the text that students can complete as they read, and a solutions manual in the back of the book. This book is intended for graduate or advanced undergraduate students. It is also recommended for computer scientists and database systems engineers and programmers in government, industry and academia; professionals from other disciplines, e.g., geography, geology, soil science, hydrology, urban and regional planning, mobile computing, bioterrorism and homeland security, etc.
