Peptides are used ubiquitously for studies in biology, biochemistry, chemical biology, peptide based medicinal chemistry, and many other areas of research. There is a number of marketed peptide drugs, and the prospects for the development of new peptide drugs are very encouraging. The second edition of Peptide Synthesis and...
A timely and relevant analysis of today's complex call models In today's world of ever-expanding telecommunications options, here is an advanced-level text that covers the mathematical methods used in the analysis of modern telecom networks, with emphasis on a variety of call models such as quality of service (QoS) in...
In many decision support fields the data that is exploited tends to be more and more complex. To take this phenomenon into account, classical architectures of data warehouses or data mining algorithms must be completely re-evaluated.
Processing and Managing Complex Data for Decision Support provides readers with an overview of the emerging...
This book originates from the desire to perpetuate expertise in the field of
performance evaluation, particularly for telecommunication systems and
networks. It is obviously impossible to translate into a single work all the
facets of an activity which encompasses many systems and a great variety of
domains such as standardization,...
Philosophers of science have long used reconstructive reasoning to develop historical explanations covering the origins of natural phenomenon. The application of the scientific method is a powerful tool for solving crimes through reconstruction of the events. Scientific Foundations of Crime Scene Reconstruction: Introducing Method to...
In the last decade, the delineation of the human genome and the development of high throughput genomics and proteomics have transformed the practice of Pediatrics. The study of normal childhood growth and development, and pediatric diseases now focuses on the delineation of normal and abnormal gene expression, resultant cellular and organ...
This Open Access biography chronicles the life and achievements of the Norwegian engineer and physicist Rolf Widerøe. Readers who meet him in the pages of this book will wonder why he isn't better known.
The first of Widerøe's many pioneering contributions in the field of accelerator physics was the...

GRASS GIS software was developed in response to the need for improved analysis of landscape “trade offs” in managing government lands and the emerging potential of computer-based land analysis tools. During the last decades of the 20th century, government land managers in the U.S. (and across the world) faced...
Experienced developers get proven techniques, real-world insights, and extensive code samples in Microsoft Visual C# to help deliver access to informationanywhere, on any device. Developers need to respond with more than simple adaptations of the user interfacethey need to implement mobile solutions for most of their applications.
Wireless Sensors are small, cheap, low maintenance and will revolutionize wireless communications.
’Wireless sensor networks’ is a rapidly growing discipline with new technologies emerging, new applications being developed and standards being finalized. Sensors and actuators allow for entirely new kinds of...
Collaborative research in bioinformatics and systems biology is a key element of modern biology and health research. This book highlights and provides access to many of the methods, environments, results and resources involved, including integral laboratory data generation and experimentation and clinical activities. Collaborative projects embody a...
