Pathologie, Diagnostik und Therapie der Leberkrankheiten: Viertes Symposion vom 29. Juni bis 1. Juli 1956 (Freiburger Symposion an der Medizinischen Universitäts-Klinik #4)

Dieses Symposion über Leberkrankheiten steht unter einem besonderen Stern. Es ist jetzt gerade 30 Jahre her, daß Professor HANS EPPINGER die Leitung dieser Klinik übernahm und vier Jahre in Freiburg gmvirkt hat. Er hat die Patho­ physiologie der Leberkrankheiten mit seiner ungeheuer weitschauenden und geistvollen Art durchleuchtet und ein Gebäude errichtet, auf dem wir heute weiter­ bauen. Sein Licht ist in den Sturmesnächten des Kriegsendes erloschen, von vielen unbemerkt, und es ist an der Zeit, daß wir seiner hier in unserem Arbeits­ kreis gedenken. Ich begrüße bei dieser Gelegenheit ganz besonders seine Tochter, Frau Professor RüHL, sowie die Tochter von Frau RüHL, die Enkelin EPPINGE&s. Ich bin glücklich, daß sie uns die Freude gemacht haben, hier anwesend zu sein. Herr Professor BEIGLBÖCK hat die Aufgabe übernommen, das Lebenswerk EPPINGERs zu würdigen. Ich darf ihm dafür ganz besonders danken. Meine Damen und Herren! Ich darf Sie alle herzlich willkommen heißen und wünschen, daß Sie diese Tage mit Gewinn hier in Freiburg verleben, daß dabei nicht nur das Wissenschaftliche, sondern auch das Gesellige gedeihe, damit der Name "Symposion", den diese Arbeitstagung trägt, auch zu Recht bestehe.

Medical Informatics Europe 81: Third Congress of the European Federation of Medical Informatics Proceedings, Toulouse, France March 9–13, 1981 (Lecture Notes in Medical Informatics #11)

The European Federation for Medical Informatics has established itself as a regional body coordinating activity in medical informatics. The Congress in Toulouse, MIE-81, from 9 - 13 March 1981, is the third congress in the ser ies following MIE-78 in Cambr idge, and MIB-79 in Berlin with a gap during 1980 for the world congress MEDINFO-80 in Tokyo. The rationale behind all these congresses is the scientific need to share results and ideas and the educational need to train a wide variety of professional staff in the potential of health care and medical informatics. All the caring professions are involved, doctors, scientists, nurses, para-medical staff, administrators, health care planners, community physicians, epidemiologists, statisticians, operations analysts together with specialists from the computing profession dealing with system analysis, hardware, software, languages, data-bases and the marketing of systems. Medical Informatics is a very wide subject with ramifications throughout the health care and preventive services; it offers a key to the monitoring and improvement of patient care and to the provision of a healthier environment. The collection and evaluation of relevant data improves our understanding of the ways in which health care is provided while the availability of cheaper computer hardware and more versatile software enables us to design and implement more revealing and intelligent medical systems. Even though typical systems take a substantial amount of time to design, implement and evaluate, there is the continuing need for informaticians to assess the current state of developmen.

Stress Waves in Anelastic Solids: Symposium Held at Brown University, Providence, R. I., April 3–5, 1963 (IUTAM Symposia)

Although the subject of wave propagation in solids has a long history, the classical theory of elastic waves having been developed in the nine­ teenth century by STOKES, POISSON, RAYLEIGH and KELVIN, the last two decades have seen a remarkable revival of interest in this subject among both theoreticians and experimenters. There' are a number of reasons for this; first, experimental methods for the generation and detection of high frequency mechanical waves have become available only with the advent of electronic techniques and of high speed photo­ graphic recording apparatus. Secondly, the appearan

Spilites and Spilitic Rocks (International Union of Geological Sciences #4)

The idea for the present Spilite Volume was born during the Spilite Symposium at the XXIIIrd session of the International Geological Con­ gress in Prague, 1968. At that time, only a restricted number of petro­ logists working on spilites was present and, therefore, the group assem­ bled agreed that a Symposium Volume should also include recent papers by many other spilite specialists. At the same time it was agreed that the papers presented at the Symposium should be returned to the authors for changes and additions. This procedure of upgrading and amending the papers has continued until this year (1973) for various technical and editorial reasons. The information presented here is, therefore, up-to­ date. To those familiar with the spilite problem it is obvious that the time had come for a review of its state. Also, the existing litera­ ture had become so voluminous that a monographic review was necessary. Following a modern trend, the authorship for this review was spread among specialists with variable experience. For readers not necessarily familiar with the spilite problem, a brief summary is presented here. A short historical note is followed first by the observations, then by the interpretations, finally by some of the major features of scientific logic as they pertain to the problem of the primary or secondary origin of some of the rocks termed spilites and keratophyres.

Multiple Criteria Decision Making: Proceedings of a Conference Jouy-en-Josas, France May 21–23, 1975 (Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems #130)

The conference was organized in order to assemble a group of researchers and practitioners in the area of Multiple Criteria Decision Making. The purpose was to discuss the current state of the art with respect to both theory and practice. This conference considered such points as recent t_heoretical developments in terms of models, the behavioral aspects of multiple criteria decision making, as well as practical applications already realized and 1n progress. In addition, there was interest in the problems of implementation of multiple-criteria methods, and the interface between theory and practice, Approximately 78 participants from 15 different countries attended the conference - both theorists and practitioners. A list of participants and their addresses is found on page 411 • Because of the relatively large number of papers presented, large morning sessions followed by smaller parallel afternoon sessions were employed'. In general a discussant commented on each paper. In addition, considerable time was reserved for small-group discussion and interaction. In addition to expressing our gratitude to the participants for their enthusiastic reception and participation in the conference, we want. to thank particularly the speakers, session chairmen and discussants. We also wish to thank the C.E.S.A. and the European Institute for their support, as well as Mrs. Randee Pomerantz and Miss Dina Nagler.~oth of the E.I.A.S.M.,for their active role in the organization and arrangements for the conference, and Mrs. Jessie Goveas, E.I.A.S.M. for typing the conference proceedings.
