Innovation in Energy Security and Long-Term Energy Efficiency
The sustainable development of our planet depends on the use of energy. The growing population of the world inevitably causes an increase in the demand for energy, which, on the one hand, threatens the potential for shortages of energy supply, and, on the other hand, causes the deterioration of the environment.Therefore, our task is to reduce this demand through different innovative solutions (i.e., both technological and social). Social marketing and economic policies can also play a role in affecting the behavior of households and companies, by causing behavioral change oriented to energy stewardship, and an overall switch to renewable energy resources. This book provides a platform for the exchange of a wide range of ideas, which, ultimately, would facilitate the driving of societies to long-term energy efficiency.

Dynamic Efficiency and Productivity Measurement
A systematic treatment of dynamic decision making and performance measurementModern business environments are dynamic.Yet, the models used to make decisions and quantify success within them are stuck in the past.In a world where demands, resources, and technology are interconnected and evolving, measures of efficiency need to reflect that environment. In Dynamic Efficiency and Productivity Measurement, Elvira Silva, Spiro E.Stefanou, and Alfons Oude Lansink look at the business process from a dynamic perspective.Their systematic study covers dynamic production environments where current production decisions impact future production possibilities.By considering practical factors like adjustments over time, this book offers an important lens for contemporary microeconomic analysis.Silva, Stefanou, and Lansink develop the analytical foundations of dynamic production technology in both primal and dual representations, with an emphasis on directional distance functions.They cover concepts measuring the production structure (economies of scale, economies of scope, capacity utilization) and performance (allocative, scale and technical inefficiency, productivity) in a methodological and comprehensive way. Through a unified approach, Dynamic Efficiency and Productivity Measurement offers a guide to how firms maximize potential in changing environments and an invaluable contribution to applied microeconomics.

Productivity Machines : German Appropriations of American Technology from Mass Production to Computer Automation
How productivity culture and technology became emblematic of the American economic system in pre- and postwar Germany. The concept of productivity originated in a statistical measure of output per worker or per work-hour, calculated by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.A broader productivity culture emerged in 1920s America, as Henry Ford and others linked methods of mass production and consumption to high wages and low prices.These ideas were studied eagerly by a Germany in search of economic recovery after World War I, and, decades later, the Marshall Plan promoted productivity in its efforts to help post-World War II Europe rebuild.In Productivity Machines, Corinna Schlombs examines the transatlantic history of productivity technology and culture in the two decades before and after World War II.She argues for the interpretive flexibility of productivity: different groups viewed productivity differently at different times.Although it began as an objective measure, productivity came to be emblematic of the American economic system; post-World War II West Germany, however, adapted these ideas to its own political and economic values.Schlombs explains that West German unionists cast a doubtful eye on productivity's embrace of plant-level collective bargaining; unions fought for codetermination-the right to participate in corporate decisions.After describing German responses to US productivity, Schlombs offers an in-depth look at labor relations in one American company in Germany-that icon of corporate America, IBM.Finally, Schlombs considers the emergence of computer technology-seen by some as a new symbol of productivity but by others as the means to automate workers out of their jobs.

How does the measurement technology of a temperature sensor with NTC work?
A temperature sensor with NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) works by utilizing a thermistor made of a semiconductor material that exhibits a decrease in resistance as temperature increases. The NTC thermistor is connected to a circuit that measures the resistance of the thermistor, which changes with temperature. By measuring the resistance, the circuit can calculate the temperature based on the known characteristics of the NTC thermistor. This allows the sensor to provide an accurate temperature reading based on the electrical resistance of the NTC thermistor.
