This study sought to investigate the effectiveness of the rebranding a strategy in the mobile communications industry with Net One as a case study. To help in the execution of this project, the researcher set out five main objectives. These were to identify reasons that necessitated re-branding; to find out whether Net One’s rebranding strategy is in line with clients’ needs; to assess the clients’ perceptions in the past and present logo changes; to identify the benefits of re-branding that accrues to the organization and to assess resource allocation of the rebranding exercise to the organization. To accomplish the objectives of the research project, the researcher used the case study research design. This uses two broad types of research namely qualitative and quantitative. As for the data collection, the researcher elected to use the self administered questionnaire. A total of 56 questionnaires were distributed to staff, middle managers and clients. Interviews…

A Polynomial Translation of Mobile Ambients into Safe Petri Nets: Understanding a Calculus of Hierarchical Protection Domains (BestMasters)

A Polynomial Translation of Mobile Ambients into Safe Petri Nets: Understanding a Calculus of Hierarchical… Author: Susanne Göbel

Price: $79.99  View »

The master thesis of Susanne Göbel generates the deep understanding of the Mobile Ambient (MA) calculus that is necessary to use it as a modeling language. Instead of calculus terms a much more convenient representation via MA trees naturally maps to the application area of networks where processes pass hierarchical protection domains like firewalls. The work analyses MA’s function principles and derives a translation into Safe Petri nets. It extends to arbitrary MA processes but finiteness of the net and therefore decidability of reachability is only guaranteed for bounded processes. The construction is polynomial in process size and bounds so that reachability analysis is only PSPACE-complete.

Coulomb Screening by Mobile Charges: Applications to Materials Science, Chemistry, and Biology

Coulomb Screening by Mobile Charges: Applications to Materials Science, Chemistry, and Biology Author: Jean-N. Chazalviel
Publisher: Birkhäuser (28 July 1999)
Price: $179.99  View »

The idea of writing this book orIgmates from a suggestion of Bernard Sapoval: "Why don't you write it?" he asked. "Coulomb screening is a problem that everybody encounters in many different contexts, and there is no textbook that gathers the various aspects ofthe subject. " The content ofthe book, in a shorter form, was first taught for four years as a course in Dipl6me d'Etudes Approfondies Sciences des Materiaux, headed by Prof. J. -F. Petroff, at Paris VI University. The present extended version was written after discussions with Alia Margolina-Litvin. An essential feature of screening is its role in many different scientific areas. For that reason, the book is intended for use by a multidisciplinary readership. Reading it requires only a basic knowledge ofelectromagnetism, elementary quantum mechanics, and thermal physics. The spirit of the pre­ sentation is "simplicity first": new concepts (e. g. , dielectric function) are first introduced in their most elementary form and…
