Overview: .Social Order in Multiagent Systems. provides an overviewof current approaches, problems, and considerations related to thestudy of norms and institutions in the context of multiagent systems.The contributions in this volume share the assumption that norms andother social institutions are of vital importance for the developmentof multiagent systems and agent-mediated interaction. Both formal andcomputational models of norms and normative systems are presented,including formal analysis of normative concepts and foundationalmodels of norms; agent and systems architectures for implement

Overview: Plasma proteins are of interest from many points of view. Biochemists have separated and purified numerous plasma proteins and studied their physical properties, aminoacid composition and sequence, the carbohydrate components of some, and binding of metals, hormones and other materials. Much work has also been carried out on the synthesis, rates of turnover and degradation of plasma proteins. Many plasma proteins show inherited variations, some of which (e.g. those of heptoglobins and transferrins) are common in various human populations while others (e.g. absence of lipoproteins or

Overview: Examines how climate change creates uncertainty regarding the continued supply of water to paddy cultivation.Provides detailed analyses of the paddy land and farming, rice production policies, consump.This book highlights rice and water resources security in Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam – countries that share the international Mekong River, which is a source of both regional cooperation and conflict. It discusses the topography, population, economy, rice production and rice trade of these four riparian countries, and analyses the impacts of climate change, El Nino and La Nin

Overview: The main aim of this book is to present a broader view of scientific software than has been common in the past. The provision of scientific software is no longer a matter of just writing ‘good computer programs‘, but rather it is concerned with the development of an integrated software system wI-,ich offers the user facilities which approach all that he needs in terms of speed, accuracy and convenience. This means that due account must, for example, be taken of the high-speed computing capabilities of parallel processors, the exact computing features of symbolic mathematical systems,

Overview: Includes supplementary material: Mohamed Medhat Gaber “It is not my aim to surprise or shock you – but the simplest way I can summarise is to say that there are now in the world machines that think, that learn and that create. Moreover, their ability to do these things is going to increase rapidly until – in a visible future – the range of problems they can handle will be coextensive with the range to which the human mind has been applied” by Herbert A. Simon (1916-2001) 1Overview This book suits both graduate students and researchers with a focus on discovering knowledge from scient

Overview: Provides comprehensive Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Data Science techniques for Specialty Crops.Provides Specialty Crops Climate Change Adaptation Strategies for enhanced Food Securi.Specialty crops are defined as fruits and vegetables, tree nuts, dried fruits, horticulture, and nursery crops including floriculture. The value of specialty crop production in the United States accounted for 18.44 % of the $433.569 billion in agriculture cash receipts collected in 2021. In 2020, that ratio was 21.47% of the $363.464 billion. Specialty crops are gaining increasing atten

Overview: This book contains a collection of papers dealing with variousaspects of the biology and aquaculture of the large branchiopodcrustacea; the Anostraca, Conchostraca, and Notostraca. Included aremany of the papers presented at the Second International LargeBranchiopod Symposium convened in Ulm, Germany, 30 July--3 August1993. Additional manuscripts contributed by colleagues who were unableto attend are also included. A special feature of this volume is achecklist of the Anostraca, including information on distribution,location of type material, taxonomic problems, and literaturereferen

Overview: A distinction between contamination and pollution is useful when we wish to consider what strategies to adopt in researching the impact of anthropogenic activities on the marine environment. Contamination strictly refers to the chemical burden imposed on the system and is evaluated in terms of the concentrations of chemical compounds in various abiotic (e. g water, suspended particulate matter, sediments) and biotic (plant and animal, pelagic and benthic) components. The concept of pollution, on the other hand, infers an assessment of biological response to the measured levels of con

Overview: Includes ten important rules for social infrastructure inspection.Discusses each rule accompanied by an illustration and a brief comment.Presents easy-to-understand maintenance and repair/high functio.This book explains in an easy-to-understand manner the “check” points to keep in mind when inspecting various social infrastructure structures. It is put together in a way that not only engineers who are on the front line of maintenance and management but also engineers who are not normally involved in maintenance and management of social infrastructures as well as general public can un

Overview: Sozialdemokratische Programmatik im internationalen VergleichDie europäische Sozialdemokratie im Jahr 2010 ist schon wieder beziehungsweise immer noch auf der Suche nach einem kohärenten Modell, nach einem erfolgsversprechenden programmatischen Kern, mit dessen Hilfe sie den politischen Diskurs erkennbar mitgestalten kann. Sozialdemokratische Parteien haben immer wieder den Versuch unternommen, sich von ihren alten Modellen zu lösen, um am Ende doch keine neuen und langfristig tragfähigen ideologischen Grundlagen zu finden. Die Prozesse dieser Programmerneuerungen nachzuzeichnen und

Overview: This is a significant contribution to the worldwide discussion of political self-determination as a source of socio-cultural and political hope, conflict and confusion. Inspired by Martin Ennals, long the quietly visionary Director-General of Amnesty International, the book consists of cases and penetratingly definitive analyses, culminating in trenchant recommendations for action by world bodies. With self-determination intensely at issue so widely, from the former Yugoslavia to Kashmir to Quebec, this distinguished book by a global group of experts is particularly timely.978-1-349-
