This monograph presents the geoscientific context arising in
decorrelative geomagnetic exploration. First, an insight into the
current state of research is given by reducing magnetometry to
mathematically accessible, and thus calculable, decorrelated
models. In this way, various questions and problems of magnetometry
are made available to a broad scientific audience and the
exploration industry. New stimuli are given, and innovative ways of
modeling geologic strata by mollifier magnetometric techniques are
shown. Potential data sets primarily of terrestrial origin
constitute the main data basis in the book. For deep geology, the
geomathematical decorrelation methods are designed in such a way
that depth information (e.g., in boreholes) may be canonically
entered. Overall, this book provides pioneering and ground-breaking
innovative mathematical knowledge as a transfer methodology from
the "reality space" of magnetometric measurements into the "virtual
space" of mathematical-numerical modeling structures and mollifier
solutions with novel geological application areas. It pursues a
double goal: On the one hand, it represents a geoscientific set of
rules for today's geoengineering, interested in the application of
innovative modelling and simulation techniques to promising data
sets and structures occurring in geomagnetics. On the other hand,
the book serves as a collection of current material in Applied
Mathematics to offer alternative methodologies in the theory of
inverse problems.
This book presents, in a consistent and unified overview, results
and developments in the field of todays spherical sampling,
particularly arising in mathematical geosciences. Although the book
often refers to original contributions, the authors made them
accessible to (graduate) students and scientists not only from
mathematics but also from geosciences and geoengineering. Building
a library of topics in spherical sampling theory it shows how
advances in this theory lead to new discoveries in mathematical,
geodetic, geophysical as well as other scientific branches like
neuro-medicine. A must-to-read for everybody working in the area of
spherical sampling.
This book takes an in-depth look at the software industry as a
major factor in future global economic performance. It explores how
software-based companies are a significant factor behind economic
growth and serve as important bridge builders between industries.
Countries with a weak and underdeveloped software industry risk
being left behind in the 21st century. The book examines the case
of Germany as one of the world's major industrial nations, which is
facing loss of competitiveness due to its underdeveloped software
sector. It shows how the German software market is characterized by
a multiplicity of small and medium sized companies and exhibits a
shortage of globally dominating companies. This is presented and
examined in the light of Germany being a powerhouse for
technologies in sectors other than the software industry. The book
analyzes the current situation and future potential of the German
software industry. Using empirical analysis and international case
studies, it presents the status quo and offers recommendations for
policy makers. It shows effective management strategies for the
sustainable international growth of software-based companies. The
recommendations in this book are intended to secure Germany's front
seat on the express train bound for the second half of the 21st
century.

Duringthelastdecades,geosciencesand-engineeringwerein?uencedbytwo
essentialscenarios. First,
thetechnologicalprogresshaschangedcompletely the observational and
measurement techniques. Modern high speed c- puters and
satellite-based techniques are entering more and more all (geo)
disciplines. Second, there is a growing public concern about the
future of our planet, its climate, its environment, and about an
expected shortage of natural resources. Obviously, both aspects,
viz. (i) e?cient strategies of protection against threats of a
changing Earth and (ii) the exceptional s- uation of getting
terrestrial, airborne as well as spaceborne, data of better and
better quality explain the strong need for new mathematical
structures, tools, and methods. In consequence, mathematics
concerned with geosci- ti?c problems, i.e., geomathematics, is
becoming more and more important. Nowadays, geomathematics may be
regarded as the key technology to build the bridge between real
Earth processes and their scienti?c understanding. In fact, it is
the intrinsic and indispensable means to handle geoscient- cally
relevant data sets of high quality within high accuracy and to
improve signi?cantly modeling capabilities in Earth system
research.
This book is an enlarged second edition of a monograph published in
the Springer AGEM2-Series, 2009. It presents, in a consistent and
unified overview, a setup of the theory of spherical functions of
mathematical (geo-)sciences. The content shows a twofold
transition: First, the natural transition from scalar to vectorial
and tensorial theory of spherical harmonics is given in a
coordinate-free context, based on variants of the addition theorem,
Funk-Hecke formulas, and Helmholtz as well as Hardy-Hodge
decompositions. Second, the canonical transition from spherical
harmonics via zonal (kernel) functions to the Dirac kernel is given
in close orientation to an uncertainty principle classifying the
space/frequency (momentum) behavior of the functions for purposes
of data analysis and (geo-)application. The whole palette of
spherical functions is collected in a well-structured form for
modeling and simulating the phenomena and processes occurring in
the Earth's system. The result is a work which, while reflecting
the present state of knowledge in a time-related manner, claims to
be of largely timeless significance in (geo-)mathematical research
and teaching.
