Book Description

During the last decade of the twentieth century, computer vision made considerable progress towards the consolidation of its fundaments, in particular regarding the treatment of geometry for the evaluation of stereo image pairs and of multi-view image recordings. Scientists thus began to look at basic computer vision solutions - irrespective of the well-perceived need to perfection these further - as components which should be explored in a larger context.

This volume is a post-event proceedings volume and contains selected papers based on the presentations given, and the lively discussions that ensued, during a seminar held in Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in October 2003. Co-sponsored by ECVision, the cognitive vision network of excellence, it was organized to further strengthen cooperation between research groups from different countries, and scientists active in related areas were invited from around the world.

The 18 thoroughly revised papers presented are organized in topical sections on foundations of cognitive vision systems, recognition and categorization, learning and adaptation, representation and inference, control and systems integration, and conclusions.

Book Description

Leading experts get entrepreneurs and investors up to speed on high-growth business opportunities
The rules of building a new business changed dramatically with the bursting of the dot com bubble. Yet despite the ups and downs of the stock market, the time has never been riper for entrepreneurs and investors. Most industry observers now agree that the next few years will see a dramatic growth of opportunities in wireless and broadband communications, consumer and enterprise marketing, health services, and banking, just to name a few e-business sectors. But, to succeed in this new environment, you have to play by new rules, and sources of expert advice and guidance are few and far between. Coauthored by one of today's most successful and visible entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, Lightspeed Business fills that information vacuum with no-nonsense advice and practical wisdom.
With hard-hitting analysis, invaluable insights, and war stories gleaned from an unparalleled tenure in the trenches, the authors deliver proven money-making ideas, present new rules on how to start, finance, and invest in a successful startup, and explain why conventional business strategies are doomed to failure in this new business environment. Lightspeed Business provides everything investors need to know to recognize a big opportunity and quickly build a successful business.
J. Neil Weintraut (Palo Alto, CA) is the founder and General Partner of 21st Century Internet Venture Partners. Christopher Barr (San Francisco, CA) was the founding Editor in Chief of CNET. Currently, he serves as Vice President and Editor at Large at CNET.

Customer Reviews:

Excellent primer for entrepreneurs.......2002-02-06

Barr and Weintraut's work gives concrete advice to tomorrow's leaders on how to position and structure their businesses in order to attract venture capital and ultimately, win. The emphasis is on internet startup financing but I think young CEOs targeting other industries may benefit too. The subjects covered vary from really simple observations based on common sense such as the importance of focusing on the customer and why it is important to hire the best folks you can get, to more complicated issues such as how much equity to give to whom and what to expect will happen to the capitalization structure over time.

The book is peppered throughout with specific Internet company war stories from the last decade that well illustrate their insights and keep the prose entertaining and punchy. I would definitely recommend this book for folks interested in founding or working at a startup, especially first-time entrepreneurs that haven't had much experience with venture capitalists.

Book Description

Comentario

Tractores es una obra donde se combina una larga experiencia de campo, el conocimiento técnico especializado y la habilidad didáctica. En él se analiza el proceso de mecanización agrícola en Latinoamérica, y se desarrollan conceptos esenciales para comprender el funcionamiento de los tractores.

Con datos actualizados y capacidad analítica, el autor presenta explicaciones accesibles sobre los aspectos técnicos más relevantes, argumentos sólidos sobre el uso de los tractores en las distintas tareas agrícolas, y una visión clara sobre la mecanización en los sistemas productivos. Más de cien gráficos, fotografías y esquemas apoyan el desarrollo de los temas.

Tractores se inicia entonces con la evolución del ingreso de tractores al trabajo agrícola y el paulatino aumento de la potencia disponible para la producción. Luego, se explicitan las características constructivas de los motores Diesel, lo que apoya el meticuloso análisis de su comportamiento cuando están en uso. Un capítulo entero se dedica a los canales de aprovechamiento de la energía, y otro a los modelos y versiones de tractores, donde se estudiar las aplicaciones de las distintas unidades, con sus potencias y diseños específicos. Un último capítulo ilustrativo presenta a través de magníficas imágenes acompañadas de amenos comentarios el trabajo de los tractores en distintas actividades agrícolas. Se agrega un apéndice con las tablas de unidades y sus equivalencias, planillas de consumos.

análisis de curvas de potencia y datos estadísticos.
