Overview: There have been many interesting developments in the field of nuclear radiation detectors, especially in those using semiconduct­ ing materials. The purpose of this book is to present a survey of the developments in semiconductor detectors along with discus­ sions about gas counters and scintillation counters. These discus­ sions are directed to detector users, usually scientists and technicians in different fields such as chemistry, geology, bio­ chemistry, and medicine. The operation of these detectors is discussed in terms of basic properties, such as efficiency, energy resolution

Overview: The current construct of intellectual disability is based on the assumption that both IQ and adaptive behaviour can be measured accurately. Intellectual Disability explains how and why this is not fit for purpose and that it is actually neither necessary nor reasonable to have a single construct of intellectual disability.978-1-349-43897-6978-1-137-02558-6

Overview: Educational institutions in which administrators, managers and teachers will be working in the late 1990‘s will be far different from those oftoday. Schools, which until recently were lagging behind in the implementation of information technology (IT) in their administration and management, are now attempting to close the gap. A massive and rapid computerization process in schools, school districts and throughout the other Ievels of the educational system, including universities, has made computers an integral part of the educational management scene. A computer on the desk of every

Overview: Codes used for all of the computational examples are available on GitHub.Covers optimization methods, regression principal & independent component analysis & variational calculus.Problem solving & theThis textbook provides an introduction to numerical computing and its applications in science and engineering. The topics covered include those usually found in an introductory course, as well as those that arise in data analysis. This includes optimization and regression-based methods using a singular value decomposition. The emphasis is on problem solving, and there are numerous exerci

Overview: This volume is a consequence of a series of seminars presented by the authors at the Infrared Spectroscopy Institute, Canisius College, Buffalo, New York, over the last nine years. Many participants on an intermediate level lacked a sufficient background in mathematics and quantum mechan­ ics, and it became evident that a non mathematical or nearly nonmathe­ matical approach would be necessary. The lectures were designed to fill this need and proved very successful. As a result of the interest that was developed in this approach, it was decided to write this book. The text is intende

Overview: A valuable resource for researchers who want to learn how the results of data mining (hidden patterns) can be used to effectively support decision-making.Argues that the human knowledge or preferencesThis book is mainly about an innovative and fundamental method called “intelligent knowledge” to bridge the gap between data mining and knowledge management, two important fields recognized by the information technology (IT) community and business analytics (BA) community respectively. The book includes definitions of the “first-order” analytic process, “second-order” analytic process an

Overview: Proposes the strategic appeal of innovation and entrepreneurship education.Studies the trends of innovation and entrepreneurship education at the times of economic globalization.Explains the complex r.This book explains the strategic appeal of innovation and entrepreneurship education based on the systematic analysis of the key characteristics and constraints of China’s economic transformation and upgrading. The book presents results related to studying the common trends of innovation and entrepreneurship education at the times of economic globalization and the experience of major co

Overview: With globalisation, deregulation and the advent of derivatives, credit institutions and the treasury operations of manufacturing, merchandising and service companies are finding that their traditional tools for management control no longer suffice. They must develop more efficient processes able to measure and monitor their risks in real-time. Internal control is a dynamic system covering all types of risk, addressing fraud, assuring transparency and making possible reliable financial reporting within such organisations. In Implementing and Auditing the Internal Control System , Dimi

Overview: Critical appraisal of the subject matter, not a ‘how to’ manual.Employs contemporary social theory to analyse the subject matter.Thought provoking and provocative approach to the topic.Globalization is a multifaceted phenomenon, and one of its major components is the internationalization of education. The increasing pace and complexity of global knowledge flows, and the accelerating exchange of educational ideas, practices and policies, are important drivers of globalization. Higher Education is a key site for these flows and exchanges. ..This book casts a critical eye on the interna

Overview: Uses the method of conversation analysis to develop the notion of interactional competence.Contributes to a better understanding of the multi-faceted nature of interactional competence by focusing on This interdisciplinary volume brings together leading scholars from several disciplines to uncover the key to young people’s socialization within institutional settings, from school to the workplace. Among the questions they consider are: what aspects of interactional competence are relevant for participation in practical activities within those settings? What are the interactional proce

Overview: Excellent presentation of a new concept of image processing by electronic neural networks based on the technical realization of biological concepts.Includes supplementary material: .This is the first book to explain and demonstrate the tremendous ability of Pulse-Coupled Neural Networks (PCNNs) when applied to the field of image processing. PCNNs and their derivatives are biologically inspired models that are powerful tools for extracting texture, segments, and edges from images. As these attributes form the foundations of most image processing tasks, the use of PCNNs facilitates tra

Overview: This collection includes contributions from some of the major authors in the field. The critical essays have been chosen to open up possibilities, mark out boundaries and set objectives in the ever-expanding field of international literature in English. The writers themselves are the principal guides and resources for this enterprise. New literary and critical practices are derived from the problematic role of English as an international language and from its relations with other languages. Values of cultural difference and particularity are emphasised.978-1-349-27060-6Series ISSN 29

In the recent past, the term ‘emerging economies’ has

Overview: ull recognition of the important role that hormones play in the growth, F differentiation, and function of insects was preceded by rather advanced information about identity and action of mammalian hormones. However, extirpation and transplantation of endocrine glands in insects and segmental ligation of larvae gradually yielded knowledge about the location of endo­ crine cells in insects and led to labeling their hormonal product with appropriate names. The development of relatively sensitive assays permitted the separation of active extracts of the hormones associated with meta­ mo
