Overview: Has any good come out of the efforts to mediate the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia? The short answer is, ‘Yes, but...‘ Mediation has brought about agreements that halted the fighting in Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia. Yet, the negotiations took too long, and their achievements came too late. Between 1991 and 1995 some two hundred thousand people lost their lives, and close to two million were uprooted from their homes. Saadia Touval examines why the efforts to reach a negotiated solution have not been more effective. He calls attention to two lessons: that collective mediation face

Overview: Reviews a set of artificial intelligence (AI) applications in healthcare.Discusses best practices for using AI in healthcare.Describes measures to foster better, safer use of AI in healthcare.This book offers a comprehensive yet concise overview of the challenges and opportunities presented by the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare.

Overview: .How fast and powerful can computers become? Will it be possible someday to create artificial brains that have intellectual capabilities comparable to those of human beings? The answers to these questions depend to a very great extent on a single factor: how small and dense we can make computer circuits. Very recently, scientists have achieved revolutionary advances that may very well radically change the future of computing. ..There are significant advantages to using biological molecules in a new computational paradigm, since nature has solved similar problems to those encountered

Overview: .The importance of demonstrating the value achieved from IT investments is long established in the Computer Science (CS) and Information Systems (IS) literature. However, emerging technologies such as the ever-changing complex area of cloud computing present new challenges and opportunities for demonstrating how IT investments lead to business value. Recent reviews of extant literature highlights the need for multi-disciplinary research. This research should explore and further develops the conceptualization of value in cloud computing research. In addition, there is a need for resea

Overview: Nur durch den Gebrauch unserer Muskeln sind wir in der Lage, auf unsere Umwelt einzuwirken, d.h. Kräfte auszuüben und Gegenstände - und auch uns - zu bewegen. Muskeln sind biologische Maschinen, die chemische Energie, die letztlich aus der Reaktion von Nahrung mit Sauerstoff herrührt, in Kraft und mechanische Arbeit umsetzen. Ziel dieses Buches ist es, zu erklären, was über die Art und Weise, wie diese Maschine arbeitet, bekannt ist. Es ist sinnlos, ein solches Problem unter einem zu engen Blickwinkel zu sehen; es be­ steht vielmehr die Notwendigkeit, Ideen und experimentelle Tech­ n
