The objective of this volume is to detail current technologies associated with cereal genomics, providing a valuable resource for researchers working in breeding and molecular crop improvement programs. Chapters guide readers through high-throughput DNA extraction protocols, crop genetic resources, meta-Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL)...
Discover why routers in the Juniper MX Series, with their advanced feature sets and record breaking scale, are so popular among enterprises and network service providers. This authoritative book shows you step-by-step how to implement high-density, high-speed Layer 2 and Layer 3 Ethernet services, using Router Engine DDoS Protection,...
This practical book draws on the author’s own experience, as well as that of leading-edge Human Resource and Knowledge Management practitioners including Linda Holbeche, Elizabeth Lank and Dave Snowden, each of whom recognizes, that building a knowledge-centric culture cannot be achieved through technology alone.
Over the last two decades, we have witnessed an explosive growth in both the diversity of techniques and the range of applications of image processing. However, the area of color image processing is still sporadically covered, despite having become commonplace, with consumers choosing the convenience of color imaging over traditional grayscale...
This book collects descriptions of the Object Management Group’s most powerful new CORBA and modeling specifications into a single volume. These specifications combine to give CORBA the capabilities it needs to support advanced Internet and enterprise computing. It includes almost all of the ten specifications originally labeled CORBA 3 (most...
Building a successful health care claims processing EDI implementation in BizTalk Server can be complex. Decisions must be made around how to extract and publish data, how to map to the 837 EDI standard, and how to appropriately batch and deliver data. If architected properly, your BizTalk solution can be highly efficient, simple, and...
The current demand for the development of techniques for controlled genetic manipulations is driven by the anatomical and physiological complexity of the brain and by the need for experimental models that can address this complexity through selective manipulation of defined components of the system: specific neuronal populations or selected...
A comprehensive and groundbreaking collection of ideas for plant improvement
Most of the world's supply of legumes is cultivated under adverse conditions that make this commercially important crop susceptible to the vagaries of nature and damaging stresses. Genetic manipulation has become a proven way for cultivators to battle these...
This monograph covers theoretical aspects of simultaneous localization and map building for mobile robots, such as estimation stability, nonlinear models for the propagation of uncertainties, temporal landmark compatibility, as well as issues pertaining the coupling of control and SLAM. One of the most relevant topics covered in this monograph is...
OpenGL is a powerful software interface used to produce high-quality, computergenerated images and interactive applications using 2D and 3D objects, bitmaps, and color images.
