Silverlight is a framework for building rich, browser-hosted applications that run on a variety of
operating systems. Silverlight works its magic through a browser plug-in. When you surf to a web page
that includes Silverlight content, this browser plug-in runs, executes the code, and renders that content
in a specifically...
If you are reading Microsoft SharePoint 2010: Creating and Implementing Real-World
Projects, it is likely that you are experienced with SharePoint but looking for ways to
really get the most from the out-of-the-box tools. Let’s face it; the truth is that Share-
Point is a large platform, with many different...
Stimulated by the pioneering work of Sajeev John and Eli Yablonovitsch in 1987,
German research groups started in the early 1990s with theoretical and experimental
work on 2D and 3D photonics crystals. This initial work was the basis of an
application for a focused project on photonic crystals at the German Science
Foundation...
Medical Education at St Bartholomew's Hospital traces the evolution of medical education at Barts from its foundation in 1123 to the college's merger with The London and Queen Mary & Westfield College in 1995. Drawing on the hospital's rich archives, it investigates how training was institutionalised and organised at Barts to...
Since the first Handbook of Cell-Penetrating Peptides was prepared in 2001, the wealth of new information on the use of these peptides as transport systems has in fact served to confound the field. The constant internal change in the field of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) is due to recent research uncovering apparent ambiguities in...
The use of Bayesian methods for the analysis of data has grown substantially in areas as diverse as applied statistics, psychology, economics and medical science. Bayesian Methods for Categorical Data sets out to demystify modern Bayesian methods, making them accessible to students and researchers alike. Emphasizing the use of statistical...
The concept that cancer stem cells play an important role in malignant
tumors is gaining more and more support due to recent advances in
the field. The latest progress in this area is increasingly reported and
commented on in the lay press, documenting the high excitement and
hopes it generates.
Sensor networks differ from traditional networks in many aspects including their limited energy, memory space, and computational capability. These differentiators create unique security vulnerabilities.
Security in Sensor Networks covers all aspects of the subject, serving as an invaluable reference for researchers,...
A tremendous growth in the utilization of multichannel detectors for infrared (IR)
spectroscopy has been observed over the past decade. In some cases, the incorporation
of multichannel detectors has significantly changed the practice of IR
spectroscopy; while in others, it has provided new opportunities for spectroscopic...
In the past, most project management books have focused on managing one project, but in today’s increasingly busy and stressful world, it has become necessary to calmly and efficiently manage more than one project—often several projects—successfully at the same time. This learned skill is valuable not only for project...
The fifth edition of Clinical Physiology of Acid-Base and Electrolyte Disorders has been largely rewritten to include the many important advances that have been made and the controversies that have arisen in the past six years. As with the previous four editions, this book attempts to integrate the...
Enables readers to apply the fundamentals of differential calculus to solve real-life problems in engineering and the physical sciences
Introduction to Differential Calculus fully engages readers by presenting the fundamental theories and methods of differential calculus and then showcasing how the discussed concepts can be...
