Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Mitochondria in plants, as in other eukaryotes, play an essential role in the cell as the major producers of ATP via oxidative phosphorylation. However, mitochondria also play crucial roles in many other aspects of plant development and performance, and possess an array of unique properties which allow them to interact with the specialized features of plant cell metabolism. The two main themes running through the book are the interconnection between gene regulation and protein function, and the integration of mitochondria with other components of pla

Overview: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Provable Security, ProvSec 2020, held in Singapore, in November 2020.  The 20 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The papers focus on provable security as an essential tool for analyzing security of modern cryptographic primitives. They are divided in the following topical sections: signature schemes, encryption schemes and NIZKS, secure machine learning and multiparty computation, secret sharing schemes, and security analyses..* The conference was held v

Overview: In the everyday world, much of what we do as social beings is dictated by how we perceive and manage our interpersonal space. This is called proxemics. At its simplest, people naturally correlate physical distance to social distance. We believe that people’s expectations of proxemics can be exploited in interaction design to mediate their interactions with devices (phones, tablets, computers, appliances, large displays) contained within a small ubiquitous computing ecology. Just as people expect increasing engagement and intimacy as they approach others, so should they naturally expe

Overview: Assists readers to understand the physical nature of virus particles and their impact on disease mechanisms, precision medicine, and controlled drug delivery.Brings together an interdisciplinary group.This book explores a new challenge in virology: to understand how physical properties of virus particles (virions) and viruses (infected cells) affect the course of an infection.

Overview: The human personality is inextricably bound up with, among other things, the function of the central nervous system. Diseases and malfunctions of the brain, head injuries and neurosurgical operations can all result in permanently altered behaviour patterns. This interrelation between brain and behaviour is most clearly demonstrated in cases involving functional neurosurgery and severe traumatic lesions. Despite the fact that this interrelation represents an everyday challenge to the neurosurgeon, it is a question which receives less attention than it deserves in neurosurgical meeting

Overview: Over the last 40 years, poultry-meat production has undergone considerable expansion in much of the developed world. The industry has changed from an essentially farm-based operation to one where economies of scale in rearing and processing have led to a high degree of operational efficiency. As a sequel to these changes, however, there is now greater emphasis on product quality, rather than mere ‘production at least cost‘. Also, the more recent growth in further­ processed and ‘value-added‘ convenience items has helped to maintain a buoyant market for poultry, and has shown that the

Overview: Anschauliche Aufbereitung und konsequenter Transfer der theoretischen Ansätze in die Praxis„Wer fertig ist, dem ist nichts recht zu machen, ein Werdender wird immer dankbar sein.“ (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe) Am Anfang der Entwicklung dieses Lehrbuchs stand eine Idee: ein Buch nicht nur für, sondern auch mit den Lernenden, d.h. der im Fokus stehenden Zielgruppe zu verf- sen.
