Nowadays, billions of lines of code are in the COBOL programming language. This book is an analysis, a diagnosis, a strategy, a MDD method and a tool to transform legacy COBOL into modernized applications that comply with Internet computing, Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and the Cloud. It serves as a blueprint for those in charge of finding solutions to this considerable challenge.
Throughout history, alliances have taken many different forms and they have been difficult to understand in their totality. As we now experience an unprecedented pandemic, which highlights the need for both external alliances between states and internal alliances between governments and populations, understanding alliances is more than ever critical to apprehend an open and interactive world that knows no borders and in which challenges imposed on humans are global. The book “Living Alliances, Leaving Alliances” is an interdisciplinary approach to investigating past, present and future alliances on an interpersonal, subnational, international and transnational level. It is the result of a two-year project by AreaS, a research group in area studies located at the Østfold University College in Norway.
This book introduces the mathematical ideas connecting Statistical Mechanics and Conformal Field Theory (CFT). Building advanced structures on top of more elementary ones, the authors map out a well-posed road from simple lattice models to CFTs. Structured in two parts, the book begins by exploring several two-dimensional lattice models, their phase transitions, and their conjectural connection with CFT. Through these lattice models and their local fields, the fundamental ideas and results of two-dimensional CFTs emerge, with a special emphasis on the Unitary Minimal Models of CFT. Delving into the delicate ideas that lead to the classification of these CFTs, the authors discuss the assumptions on the lattice models whose scaling limits are described by CFTs. This produces a probabilistic rather than an axiomatic or algebraic definition of CFTs. Suitable for graduate students and researchers in mathematics and physics, Lattice Models and Conformal Field Theory introduces the ideas at the core of Statistical Field Theory. Assuming only undergraduate probability and complex analysis, the authors carefully motivate every argument and assumption made. Concrete examples and exercises allow readers to check their progress throughout.
Treasury of great composer's best-known works for organ, including 6 Pieces (Liszt ranked them with the masterpieces of Bach), Trois Pieces — including the well-known Pièce Héroïque — and the Trois Chorals, perhaps Franck's finest organ works. Reproduced directly from authoritative Durand edition in an oblong format designed for easy use at the keyboard.
