■ Abstract Legal consciousness as a theoretical concept and topic of empirical research developed to address issues of legal hegemony, particularly how the law sustains its institutional power despite a persistent gap between the law on the books and the law in action. Why do people acquiesce to a legal system that, despite its promises of equal treatment, systematically reproduces inequality? ...

The discipline of software engineering has transferred the cummonsense methods of good programming and management to large software projects. It has been less successful in acquiring a solid theoretical foundation for these methods. We have developed an introductory computer science course, much as calculus is a basic course for mathematics and the physical sciences, concerned primarily with th...

This paper gives a detailed overview of the problem of missing data in parametric and nonparametric regression. Theoretical basics, properties as well as simulation results may help the reader to get familiar with the common problem of incomplete data sets. Of course, not all occurences can be discussed so this paper could be seen as an introduction to missing data within regression analysis an...

In mechanics of structures as well as in other domains of engineering, the probabilistic models often have to be computed by simulation. One of the reasons is that the stochastic calculus involved in non linear representations yields rarely explicit formulas. Usually these simulations use, for each sample, a large number of calls to the random function, in this case the simulation by the shift,...
