Overview: The purpose of the Fifth International Conference on Statistical and Scientific Databases was to bring together database researchers, users, and system builders, to discuss the particular issues of interest and to propose new solutions to the problems of the area, both from the theoretical and from the application point of view. This proceedings volume contains three invited papers as well as the other 13 contributions. The papers cover a wide area of research: object oriented database systems, semantic modelling, deductive mathematical databases, security of statistical databases, i

Overview: First book to merge Systems Biology and Apoptosis research.Dr. Inna Lavrik is one of the leading researchers in this emerging area.She has published many papers on Systems Biology applications to Apop.Systems Biology of Apoptosis. summarizes all current achievements in this emerging field. Apoptosis is a process common to all multicellular organisms. Apoptosis leads to the elimination of cells via a complex but highly defined cellular programme. Defects in the regulation of apoptosis result in serious diseases such as cancer, autoimmunity, AIDS and neurodegeneration. Recently, a subs

Overview: The use of ion beams for the modification of the structure and properties of the near-surface region of ceramics began in earnest in the early 19805. Since the mechanical properties of such materials are dominated by surface flaws and the surface stress state, the use of surface modification tech­ niques would appear to be an obvious application. As is often the case in research and development, most of the initial studies can be characterized as cataloging the response of various ceramic materials to a range of ion beam treatments. The systematic study of material and ion beam param

Overview: Matthew J. Liberatore Department of Management Villanova University Villanova, PA 19085 1. BACKGROUND The weakening competitive position of many segments of u.s. manufacturing has been analyzed, debated and discussed in corporate boardrooms, academic journals and the popular literature. One result has been a renewed commitment toward improving productivity and quality in the workplace. The drive to reduce manufacturing­ related costs, while meeting ever-changing customer needs, has led many firms to consider more automated and flexible manufacturing systems. The extent to which these

Overview: One of the most interesting fields of mathematically oriented chemical research is the so-called computer-assisted organic synthesis design. These lecture notes elaborate the mathematical model of organic chemistry, which offers formal concepts for unambiguous description of computer algorithms for organic synthesis design including retrosynthesis and reaction mechanisms. All definitions and theorems are supplemented by many illustrative examples. The model is closely related to the course of thinking of organic chemists. These notes will be useful for all theoretically oriented orga

Overview: Dieses Lehrbuch gibt dem Studenten einen Überblick über alle wichtigen Lebensräume des Meeres: von den Küstengebieten bis hin zur Tiefsee und dem Meeresboden, von den Packeiszonen bis zu den Korallenriffen. Es setzt den Schwerpunkt auf diejenigen Lebensräume im Meer, die die großen Flächen der Erdoberfläche ausmachen und eine entsprechend große Bedeutung für die Biosphäre der Erde haben - z.B. bei der aktuellen Diskussion darüber, wieviel Kohlendioxid die Weltmeere aufnehmen können.978-3-540-57797-3978-3-642-57936-3

Overview: Siegfried Sassoon: Scorched Glory is the first survey of the poet‘s published work since his death and the first to draw on the edited diaries and letters. We learn how Sassoon‘s family background and Jewish inheritance, his troubled sexuality, his experience of war - in particular his public opposition to it - his relationship to the Georgian poets and other writers, and his eventual withdrawal to country life shaped his creativity. Sassoon‘s status as a war poet has overshadowed his wider achievements and the complex personality behind them. This critical evaluation of Sassoon‘s wo
