Overview: During the past decade there has been a renewed interest in active sonar systems at both low and medium frequencies. More recently this interest has been extended to very high frequencies in shallow water. Reverberation often limits the detection performance of these systems, and there is a need to understand the underlying mechanisms that cause the scattering. With more emphasis being given to reverberation phenomena in the Scientific Program of Work at the SACLANT Undersea Research Centre, it was considered an opportune time to host a meeting, bringing together scientists from NATO

Overview: As the number of cores on a chip continues to climb, architects will need to address both bandwidth and power consumption issues related to the interconnection network. Electrical interconnects are not likely to scale well to a large number of processors for energy efficiency reasons, and the problem is compounded by the fact that there is a fixed total power budget for a die, dictated by the amount of heat that can be dissipated without special (and expensive) cooling and packaging techniques. Thus, there is a need to seek alternatives to electrical signaling for on-chip interconnec

Overview: .This SpringerBrief introduces the basics of ?wireless powered communication?networks (WPCNs). In particular, the background and concept of WPCNs are briefly discussed. Moreover, this brief?provides an extensive study of the recent developments in this area from?an optimization perspective. Wireless powered?communication network (WPCN) is a new network paradigm for IoT, where wireless devices (WDs) are powered by radio frequency (RF) based wireless power transfer?(WPT) to eliminate the need for recharging or replacing the batteries?manually and to prolong their lifetime.In this conte

Overview: In the past few years there has been the increased recognitionthat the effects of oxidative stress are not limited to the damage ofcellular constituents.There is now evidence that reactive oxygenspecies (ROS) can alter cell function by acting upon theintermediates, or second messengers, in signal transductions.Sucheffects on signaling mechanisms probably account for the role ofoxidative stress in inflammation, aging, and cancer. This volumebrings together internationally recognized researchers in both themajor areas covered by the book, oxidative stress and signaltransduction.The wor

Overview: Comprehensive book by one of the leaders in the field.Includes supplementary material: This volume attempts to give a comprehensive discussion of the theory of operator algebras (C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras. ) The volume is intended to serve two purposes: to record the standard theory in the Encyc- pedia of Mathematics, and to serve as an introduction and standard reference for the specialized volumes in the series on current research topics in the subject. Since there are already numerous excellent treatises on various aspects of thesubject,howdoesthisvolumemakeasigni?canta

Overview: Fast zwei Drittel der Erwerbst?tigen in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland üben eine sitzende T?tigkeit aus, und nicht wenige von ihnen klagen über Beschwerden, die auf das Sitzen zurückzuführen sind. Zur Pr?vention sind ?rzte und Konstrukteure von Sitzm?beln gleicherma?en gefordert. Das vorliegende Buch wendet sich deshalb nicht nur an Orthop?den und Arbeitsmediziner, sondern ebenso an die M?belhersteller und die beschaffenden Institutionen. Auf der Basis einer gründlichen Darstellung der Wirbels?ulenanatomie sowie umfangreicher Untersuchungen zur Biomechanik des Sitzens und den Ursache

Overview: A veritable mountain of literature has been published showing the causal relationship of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species in human disease conditions, and there has been an explosion in the understanding of oxidative stress, the protective role of antioxidants and molecular events involved in the regulation of transcription, editing, and translation of key events leading to disease processes. Strategies need to be developed for prevention of diseases by allowing scientists and clinicians to obtain information on new and emerging advances. The molecular mechanisms involved in several

Overview: Standard Reference Book with selected and easily retrievable data from the fields of physics and chemistry collected by acknowledged international scientists.Also available online in www.springerLink.The first two subvolumes III/34Cl and C2 on the Optical Properties of Semiconductor Quantum Structures have been well received by the scientific community. They concentrated on theoretical concepts (chapter 1), experimental methods (chapter 2), III-V semiconductors (chapter 4), I-VII semiconductors (chapter 6), and IV-VI semiconductors (chapter 7) in subvolume Cl. The II-VII materials (c

Overview: Das Outsourcing betrieblicher Funktionen wird für Unternehmen aus Wirtschaftlichkeits- und Wettbewerbsgründen immer bedeutender. In Theorie und Praxis des Marketing findet diese Entwicklung aber noch wenig Beachtung.Matthias Richard Bacher zeigt die Notwendigkeit auf, Outsourcing-Entscheidungen marktorientiert und somit unter Berücksichtigung der Kundenbedürfnisse, der Wettbewerbssituation und der diesbezüglichen Koordinationserfordernisse zu treffen, um dauerhafte Wettbewerbsvorteile zu erzielen. Der Autor entwickelt beschaffungs- und absatzmarktgerichtete Normstrategien und untersu

Overview: This volume contains many of the papers presented at the conference "Optimum Design 2000: Prospects for the New Millennium" held in Cardiff, UK on April 12th - 14th, 2000. The majority of the papers consider aspects of optimum experimental design from the theoretical to applications. Many of the optimisation problems arising in the optimum design theory in general and the articles in this volume in particular, fall into the category of nonconvex, including global, optimization. The papers are organised in two sections. Since we are at the beginning of a new millennium the first paper
