Overview: During the past fifty years, thousands of natural products have been isolated from plants, fungi, and bacteria. Apart from intense searches by pharmaceutical companies for medicinals and the concentrated effort mounted by the National Cancer Institute, many of these have not been tested in biological systems. The major reasons for this appear to be, at least, twofold. First, individual researchers looking for biologically active natural products will often isolate only small amounts of material sufficient to determine a structure and calculate the specific activity for their particul

Overview: An up-to-date review of protein-misfolding diseases which will serve as a complete reference point for readers.Up-to-date chapters that discuss different diseases associated with protein misfolding anAmyloid-forming proteins are implicated in over 30 human diseases. The proteins involved in each disease have unrelated sequences and dissimilar native structures, but they all undergo conformational alterations to form fibrillar polymers. The fibrillar assemblies accumulate progressively into disease-specific lesions in vivo. Substantial evidence suggests these lesions are the end state

Overview: A wide variety of problems are associated with the flow ofshallow water, such as atmospheric flows, tides, storm surges, riverand coastal flows, lake flows, tsunamis. Numerical simulation is aneffective tool in solving them and a great variety of numericalmethods are available. The first part of the book summarizes the basicphysics of shallow-water flow needed to use numerical methods undervarious conditions. The second part gives an overview of possiblenumerical methods, together with their stability and accuracyproperties as well as with an assessment of their performance undervari

Overview: As a division of the School of Medicine at the University of North Carolina at ChapeI Hili, TEACCH has always been involved in the latest biological research on autism and related developmental disabilities. However, until now there has not been sufficient information to justify aseparate volume on this most important topic. Recent advances both in our under­ standing of the brain and in the technology to facilitate the measurement of neurological functioning have stimulated significant growth, which is reflected in this volume. As with the preceding books in this series, Current Iss

Overview: .The seven-volume set of LNCS 11301-11307, constitutes the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Neural Information Processing, ICONIP 2018, held in Siem Reap, Cambodia, in December 2018..The 401 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 575 submissions. The papers address the emerging topics of theoretical research, empirical studies, and applications of neural information processing techniques across different domains. The 4th volume, LNCS 11304, is organized in topical sections on feature selection, clustering, classification, and detection. .97

Furthermore, innovative neurorestorative therapeutic strategies - aiming for repair of the damaged spinal cord and/or reorganization of the remaining nervous system - with significant potential for translation into clinical routine

Overview: Ein neuer Band aus der Reihe Springer Essentials.Den Strategiewandel hin zu mehr Nachhaltigkeit erreichen - mit den richtigen Mitarbeitern.So sprechen Unternehmen gezielt Nachhaltigkeitstalente an.IncVor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Nachhaltigkeitsdebatte beschreibt dieses Essential, warum Unternehmen zunehmend unter Druck stehen, Aspekte der Nachhaltigkeit im Rahmen ihrer Strategie zu berücksichtigen. In diesem Zusammenhang erläutert Kai Weinrich insbesondere die Bedeutung des Employer Brandings für die Gewinnung geeigneter Mitarbeiter, mit denen dieser Strategiewandel hin zu mehr

Overview: For many years it has been an article of faith of numerical analysts that the evaluation of derivatives of complicated functions should be avoided. Derivatives were evaluated using finite differences or, more recently, using symbolic manipulation packages. The first has the disadvantage of limited accuracy. The second has disadvantages of being expensive and requiring considerable computer memory. The recent developments described in this text allow the evaluation of derivatives using simple automatic derivative evaluation subroutines pro­ grammed in FORTRAN or BASIC. These subroutin

Overview: Karl Otto Hondrich zum GedenkenDie Soziologie der Gegenwartsgesellschaft erkennt zunehmend die Bedeutung der kollektiven Identitäten und korrigiert die klassische Modernisierungstheorie. Sie erkennt, dass Moral wenig zu regeln vermag, da sie auf Konflikt angelegt ist. Die soziologische Forschung führt uns immer mehr vor Augen, dass wir den kollektiven Gefühlen nicht entgehen können. Sie belegt zudem die Klugheit der Selbststeuerung sozialer Systeme gegenüber ihrer staatlichen Übersteuerung. Soziologische Aufklärung trägt zu der Einsicht bei, dass sich auch der genoptimierte Neue Mens

Overview: Surveys recent advances in combinatorial properties of switching fabrics.Written by an expert in the area of switching fabrics.Includes supplementary material: Switching fabrics first appeared in telephone exchanges, where there was a need to interconnect many pairs of telephones installed in the network. Due to the large number of connected subscribers and int- exchange links, switching fabrics in telephone exchanges have to serve a great number of input and output ports. Because of the scale, large switching fabrics were constructed from smaller ones. The way of building switching
