Overview: Includes supplementary material: .Despite its explosive growth over the last decade, the Web remains essentially a tool to allow humans to access information. Semantic Web technologies like RDF, OWL and other W3C standards aim to extend the Web’s capability through increased availability of machine-processable information. ...Davies, Grobelnik and Mladenic have grouped contributions from renowned researchers into four parts: technology; integration aspects of knowledge management; knowledge discovery and human language technologies; and case studies. Together, they offer a concise vi

Overview: Investigates the importance of national, regional and local environmental factors affecting smoking and tobacco control in China.Documents and reviews the latest research on smoking and tobacco controThis book fills a major gap in research into smoking and tobacco control in China. In recent decades, few studies have explored the significance of geographical factors and the role they have played either in affecting the prevalence of smoking or in tobacco control responses to the smoking epidemic in China. In light of this, the book investigates the importance of national, regional an

Overview: Provides scholars with a brand-new approach to the research of applied economic and business topics.Employs systems science and holistic logical reasoning to avoid the serious limitations of conventio.The objective of this book is to answer the calls from front-line managers, entrepreneurs, and scholarly researchers to reconstruct the theories of economics and business. Their request is for new theories to be more relevant to real life than the now-prevalent ones. To provide that answer, the book proposes to develop elementary postulates at the level of the four natural endowments of

Overview: Over the last 35 years, synthetic detergents have becomeincreasingly important as skin cleansing agents. With thevast range of soaps andsynthetic cleansers availablenowadays, doctors and pharmacists are expectedto advise onhow to cleanse normal as well as diseased skins. Soundadvice must include knowledge of the nature, composition,and action of the available surfactants and cleanserpreparations, thephysiology and pathophysiology of the skinsurface, the microbial ecology ofthe skin, and the factorsthat control the skin flora. Much of this knowledge is theresult of recent research. He

Overview: The subject of this book is string-rewriting systems. It is generally accepted that string-rewriting was first introduced by Axel Thue in the early part of this century. In the 1960‘s and early 1970‘s, it received renewed attention due to interest in formal language theory. In the 1980‘s and 1990‘s, it has received more interest since it can be viewed as a special case of term­ rewriting, a subject that has become important in the study of automated deduction. Today, string-rewriting is studied by researchers in theoretical computer science and also by researchers interested in the f

Overview: The first book on strength failure and crack evolution behavior of rock material containing pre-existing fissures.Carried out many valuable experimental investigations using advanced acoustic emissionThis book has following unique features that distinguish it from other works from the same area: 1) Investigates the influence of fissure geometry on strength failure and crack evolution behaviour of real rock material; 2) Analyzes the effect of pre-experiment high-temperature treatment on fracture mechanical behaviour of rock material with a single fissure or two parallel fissures; 3) C

Overview: Presents powerful methods for solving numerous problems in physical chemistry and electrochemistry.Includes many exercises and mathematical appendices, allowing the reader to master the methods of sta.This book presents statistical physics methods based on self-consistent field theory for describing the thermodynamic properties of ion-molecular systems, including electrolyte solutions, ionic liquids, polymeric ionic liquids, and metal-organic complexes. The methods are applicable in both the bulk and at interfaces, taking into account the molecular structure of these systems. The boo
