Overview: Transactional memory (TM) is an appealing paradigm for concurrent programming on shared memory architectures. With a TM, threads of an application communicate, and synchronize their actions, via in-memory transactions. Each transaction can perform any number of operations on shared data, and then either commit or abort. When the transaction commits, the effects of all its operations become immediately visible to other transactions; when it aborts, however, those effects are entirely discarded. Transactions are atomic: programmers get the illusion that every transaction executes all i

Overview: Up-to-date and comprehensive description of Molecular Mechanism of PCD in Cancer Progression and Therapy.Up-to-date and comprehensive information regarding the current therapeutic strategies that util.Programmed cell death (PCD) plays pivotal roles in tumor progression, cancer therapeutics and resistance of tumor cells to therapy. With the discovery of key mechanisms that are involved in mediating PCD and in promoting resistance to therapy, design of therapeutic approaches for promoting tumor-selective cell death has risen dramatically. With this book, we give a comprehensive overvie

Overview: Includes supplementary material: The majority of all proteins undergo posttranslational modifications that significantly alter their physical and chemical properties, including their folding and conformation distribution, their stability, and, consequently, their activity and function. In Posttranslational Modifications of Proteins: Tools for Functional Proteomics, Christoph Kannicht and a panel of highly experienced researchers describe readily reproducible methods for detecting and analyzing the most important of these modifications, particularly with regard to protein function, pr

Overview: The subject of this book is Command Control Communication and Information 3 (C I) which is the management infrastructure for any large or complex dynamic resource systems. Here command means the determination of what to do, and control means the ongoing managementofthe execution ofa command. 3 Decision making is the essence of C I which is accomplished through a phased implementation of a set of facilities, communications, personnel, equipment and procedures for monitoring, forecasting, planning, directing, allocating resources, and generating options to achieve specific and general

Overview: Covers a wide range of the pharmacological mechanism underlying present and potential new therapies.The recent extraordinary advances in our understanding of the cell and molecular biology of Alzheime.Alzheimer’s disease is a serious health concern in developed countries where the population is progressively aging. At the personal level the diagnosis of the disease represents a devastating scenario for both the sufferer and care givers. In recent years medications have been developed that mitigate somewhat the symptoms and delay, for a while, the progression of the disease. It is exp

Overview: Das vorliegende Buch habe ich nicht ganz freiwillig geschrieben. Es entstand auf grund von Wünschen und Anregungen, die wiederholt an mich herangetragen wurden. So wurde der Wunsch geäußert, ich möge eine für Laien verständliche Einführung in die Psychologie schreiben, die jedoch - anders als manche "populäre" Darstellungen - wichtige Themen und Theorien nicht nur oberfläch­ lich streift, sondern gründlicher und tiefer eindringend behandelt. Eine andere Anregung ging dahin, ein Lehrbuch für Studienanfänger zu schreiben, das neben der Allgemeinen Psychologie auch die anderen grundlege

Overview: Perspektive auf die Sinus-Milieus erstmals aus Sicht der Entwickler.Darstellung der Anwendungsbreite der Sinus-Milieus.Aktuelle Milieulandschaften national und internationalSeit ihrer „Erfindung“ Ende der 1970er Jahre wurden viele Hundert Projekte mit dem gesellschaftswissenschaftlichen Zielgruppenmodell der Sinus-Milieus durchgeführt, meist empirische Forschungsprojekte und meist unveröffentlichte Auftragsarbeiten. Aber es gibt auch zahlreiche publizierte Studien mit und zu den Sinus-Milieus – zu den unterschiedlichsten Themen..Was es bis dato nicht gibt, ist ein Grundlagenwerk, d.h

Overview: Includes cutting-edge methods and protocols.Provides step-by-step detail essential for reproducible results.Contains key notes and implementation advice from the experts.Soil salinity is destroying several hectares of arable land every minute. Because remedial land management cannot completely solve the problem, salt tolerant crops or plant species able to remove excessive salt from the soil could contribute significantly to managing the salinity problem. The key to engineering crops for salt tolerance lies in a thorough understanding of the physiological mechanisms underlying the ad

Overview: Vor einigen Jahren hatte ich Anlaß, für die Nachwuchskräfte unseres Beratungsunternehmens ein geeignetes Lehrbuch zu suchen. Bei allen in Betracht gezogenen Lektüren stieß ich auf zwei Mängel. Zum einen wurde das Problem der fehlenden Übereinstimmung zwischen Softwaresystemen und betrieblicher Organisation zu oberflächlich behandelt; zum anderen wurde zwar eine Fülle von Techniken vorgestellt, aber kein klarer Leitfaden geboten, wie diese Techniken eingesetzt werden müßten, um aus unstrukturierten organisatorischen Gegebenheiten Schritt für Schritt ein funktionierendes Informationssy
