Paperback. Etat : New. At the beginning of the 1980s, the previous few decades had been characterised by a 'population explosion' amongst the older age groups. Due to the success of medical science at prolonging life, this phenomenon had been experienced throughout both the developing and the developed world. Given the acute economic difficulties faced by the countries concerned, it was apparent that the allocation of resources, in terms of cash and care, would have to concentrate on the oldest and frailest members of the community.Originally published in 1981, this book presented an important contribution toward the necessity for a multidisciplinary, international approach to both public policy-making and practice at the time. The continued social functioning of the ageing community as a whole was dependent upon a combination of social and health care services together with adequate income maintenance provision, suitable housing and transport services to enable the majority to function as autonomous individuals.Drawing on experience from many countries, this unique volume brings together the extensive knowledge of practitioners in politics, social administration and care services with scholars who were now beginning to recognise the importance of ageing as a key issue upon which the social well-being of society as a whole depends.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Diploma Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, Curtin University of Technology (Wirtschaftswissenschaften and Curtin Business School), language: English, abstract: Germany's population, and consequently its workforce is ageing. Fewer young people will enter the workforce and employers will be pressed to draw from an expanding pool of older people. As a consequence the working age population is projected to decline significantly; while the numbers of organisations depended on them will rise. At the same time, baby boomers are moving towards retirement and can not be replaced by middle-aged or younger workers. Facing impending talent shortages and a substantial loss of knowledge and experience, companies might have little choice but to implement new employment strategies. Primarily based on secondary research and supported by available data from various research institutions, this paper considers relevant variables and approaches related to challenges from a German perspective. This is done regardless of specific industry conditions and circumstances. The paper covers selected peripheral issues like attitudes and retirement intentions of older workers and the myths and stereotypes about them. It provides an overview of the German labour market, specifically the situation of older people, and how public policy has been responding to improve related conditions. Finally, minor and major interventions are presented to adapt human resource methods, work arrangements, and framework conditions. Recognising that an effective response to the demographic changes requires a broader perspective, i.e. considering all working generations, the proposed initiatives primarily focus on the attraction and retention of older people. …

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Nowadays, computers are widely used and have been integrated in almost all industrial, executive and academic sectors. Many sectors like transportation, health care, entertainment and even law enforcement rely on automated identification systems in order to enhance the security. Common methods of authentication like the use of passwords/PINs, ID cards do not provide a satisfactory level of reliability in this age of evolving information. Hackers can easily hack and crack systems with the probability of accessing important, confidential information. Biometrics is considered as an important and reliable authentication tool which can solve the above problems, amongst all, efficiently. The undertaken project points at designing and implementing a prototype face recognition system with respect to ageing. In this project, the ageing impact is taken as the main factor. The system tends to nullify the effect of ageing on the recognition of a person. The underlying technology used is the Eigen-based face recognition method. While designing the system, factors like inexpensiveness, user-friendliness and ease of integration were considered in the development of this software.…
