<p>Congestion Control in Data Transmission Networks details the modeling and control of data traffic in communication networks. It shows how various networking phenomena can be represented in a consistent mathematical framework suitable for rigorous formal analysis. The monograph differentiates between fluid-flow continuous-time traffic models, discrete-time processes with constant sampling rates, and sampled-data systems with variable discretization periods.<br /> The authors address a number of difficult real-life problems, such as:<br /> optimal control of flows with disparate, time-varying delay;<br /> the existence of source and channel nonlinearities;<br /> the balancing of quality of service and fairness requirements; and<br /> the incorporation of variable rate allocation policies.<br /> Appropriate control mechanisms which can handle congestion and guarantee high throughput in various traffic scenarios (with different networking phenomena being considered) are proposed. Systematic design procedures using sound control-theoretic foundations are adopted. Since robustness issues are of major concern in providing efficient data-flow regulation in today’s networks, sliding-mode control is selected as the principal technique to be applied in creating the control solutions. The controller derivation is given extensive analytical treatment and is supported with numerous realistic simulations. A comparison with existing solutions is also provided. The concepts applied are discussed in a number of illustrative examples, and supported by many figures, tables, and graphs walking the reader through the ideas and introducing their relevance in real networks.<br /> Academic researchers and graduate students working in computer networks and telecommunications and in control (especially time-delay systems and discrete-time optimal and sliding-mode control) will find this text a valuable assistance in ensuring smooth data-flow within communications networks.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Congestion Control in Data Transmission Networks Sliding Mode and Other Designs【電子書籍】[ Przemys?aw Ignaciuk ] 12,154 円

<p>The technique of imaging spectrometry has now passed its infancy and entered into a new phase of application oriented research. Advanced sensor systems (such as Nasa/JPL's AVIRIS) have become available for international research programmes (MAC Europe 1991), new imaging spectrometers are under development in several European countries or have already passed their acceptance tests, and first high spectral resolution imaging systems are already operated by private industry. On European level, the EARSEC programme of the Joint Research Centre has provided considerable financial investments for the development of an imaging spectrometer which covers the reflective and important parts of the emissive spectrum (DAIS-7915), and the European Space Agency has initiated an important airborne remote sensing campaign (EMAC 1994/95) in which imaging spectrometry will constitute one of the most important components. The increasing sensor capabilities also reflect the fact that imaging spectrometry has advanced in many application fields of earth remote sensing. Progress has been made in the development of data pre-proeessing methods, spectral signature modeling and semi-empirical approaches for retrieving surface parameters. It therefore appeared important to further disseminate information about new approaches in the application-oriented analysis of imaging spectrometry data. This volume presents the lectures of the second EUROCOURSE on imaging spectrometry which was held in November 1992 at the Joint Research Centre (a first course on "Fundamentals and Prospective Applications" of imaging spectrometry had been organised in October 1989, the lectures being published as EUROCOURSES in Remote Sensing, vol. 2).</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Imaging Spectrometry -- a Tool for Environmental Observations【電子書籍】 24,309 円

<p>It is safe to say that without Jeffrey Klein, who first described tumes cent local anesthesia, this book would never have been written. This technique of local anesthesia, originally designed for use in outpatient liposuction procedures in the United States of America, was intro duced into clinical practice in Darmstadt in 1990 and is now employed in a growing number of areas of surgical dermatology. Eight years of experience have shown it to be a particularly elegant and safe method of local anesthesia, especially in the treatment of large areas of skin. A large number of scientific studies have improved our under standing of tumescent local anesthesia. The administration of large quantities of a dilute local anesthetic into lipophilic tissue is no longer seen as a risk to the patient, although further discussion at the inter national level will be required over the next few years in order to standardize the tumescent solution. Until then, the widely varying dosages reported around the world should be regarded with caution. The progress made and experience gained in recent years make it likely that tumescent local anesthesia will become firmly established in all branches of surgery. One important factor is the economy of the tumescent technique, the material costs of which are very low. In comparison to general anesthesia, enormous savings can be made in the costs of postopera tive care,owing to reduced staff requirements and fewer complications of wound healing.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Tumescent Local Anesthesia【電子書籍】 10,938 円

<p>New Work. New Mindset. Future Skills. Die digitale Transformation etabliert v?llig neue Mechanismen im Gesundheitswesen. Diese Entwicklung wirkt sich enorm auf die Anforderungen an Besch?ftigte und F?hrungskr?fte in der Branche aus. F?r die Gesundheitswirtschaft ist das eine gro?e Herausforderung, da sie im Spannungsfeld steht zwischen hohem Kostendruck und knappen wirtschaftlichen Ressourcen, der Notwendigkeit, Innovationen in die Gesundheitsversorgung zu bringen, dennoch das alte Kerngesch?ft fortzuf?hren (?Innovationsdilemma“) und gleichzeitig die erforderlichen neuen Kompetenzen aufzubauen. Ein professionelles Agieren in einer digitalisierten Welt erfordert erweiterte F?higkeiten auf der personalen, sozialen und methodischen Ebene. Sei es die Kunst einer gelungenen Kommunikation, die F?higkeit, Patientinnen und Patienten empathisch zu begegnen oder die Resilienz in einer VUCA-Welt ? Future Skills sind im Zuge der digitalen Transformation unerl?sslich. Neben einem grundlegenden Verst?ndnis von Digitalisierung und einer unternehmerischen Einstellung in Bezug auf Chancen und Risiken im eigenen Arbeitskontext werden auch scheinbar verstaubte pr?digitale F?higkeiten wieder aufpoliert und in einen neuen digitalen Kontext gesetzt. Es l?sst sich somit unterscheiden in: - Classic Skills: Je digitaler die Medizin in Zukunft wird, desto wichtiger werden klassische Werte, F?higkeiten und Tugenden im Berufsleben sowie f?r gesellschaftliche Teilhabe. Hierzu geh?ren beispielsweise Empathie, Selbstreflexion oder Interkulturelle Kompetenz. Wer diese beherrscht, kann sich in neuen Situationen zurechtfinden und Probleme kreativ und nachhaltig l?sen. Diese traditionellen F?higkeiten werden in Zukunft noch wichtiger, denn Aufgaben- und Berufsprofile ver?ndern sich aufgrund von Automatisierung und Digitalisierung rasant. - New Work Skills: Neue Ans?tze der Zusammenarbeit sind unabdingbar f?r das Berufsleben der Zukunft. Wer sich hier Kompetenz aneignet, kann in einer immer st?rker digital gepr?gten Welt kollaborativ und agil arbeiten sowie flexibel kritische Entscheidungen treffen. Hierzu geh?ren New Leadership, Unternehmerisches Denken und Digitale Ethik. Ob in der Pflege, Medizin oder im Management ? ein neues Mindset ist wichtig: Fehlerkultur, Geschwindigkeit und Risikobereitschaft. - Digital Skills: Durch die Digitalisierung entstehen ?ber alle Organisationen hinweg neue Berufsbilder und Aufgaben. Wer die hierf?r notwendigen F?higkeiten mitbringt, verf?gt ?ber neuestes (informations-)technologisches Fachwissen und kann es anwenden. Dabei geht es beispielsweise um Digitale Lernkompetenz, Data Literacy oder um Exponentielles Denken. Sie pr?gen h?ufig schon heute die Berufsprofile in Start-ups und im Smart Hospital. Das Praxisbuch will mit vielen Anekdoten, harten Fakten und Beispielen Inspiration geben f?r ?rztinnen und ?rzte, F?hrungskr?fte sowie Gr?nderinnen und Gr?nder im Gesundheitswesen.

<p>Terrestrial mass movements (i.e. cliff collapses, soil creeps, mudflows, landslides etc.) are severe forms of natural disasters mostly occurring in mountainous terrain, which is subjected to specific geological, geomorphological and climatological conditions, as well as to human activities. It is a challenging task to accurately define the position, type and activity of mass movements for the purpose of creating inventory records and potential vulnerability maps. Remote sensing techniques, in combination with Geographic Information System tools, allow state-of-the-art investigation of the degree of potential mass movements and modeling surface processes for hazard and risk mapping. Similarly, through statistical prediction models, future mass-movement-prone areas can be identified and damages can to a certain extent be minimized. Issues of scale and selection of morphological attributes for the scientific analysis of mass movements call for new developments in data modeling and spatio-temporal GIS analysis.</p> <p>The book is a product of a cooperation between the editors and several contributing authors, addressing current issues and recent developments in GI technology and mass movements research. Its fundamental treatment of this technology includes data modeling, topography, geology, geomorphology, remote sensing, artificial neural networks, binomial regression, fuzzy logic, spatial statistics and analysis, and scientific visualization. Both theoretical and practical issues are addressed.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Terrigenous Mass Movements Detection, Modelling, Early Warning and Mitigation Using Geoinformation Technology【電子書籍】 12,154 円

<p>Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are expected to promote new applications for the ambulatory health monitoring of chronic patients and elderly population, aiming to improve their quality of life and independence. These networks are composed by wireless sensor nodes (WSNs) used for measuring physiological variables (e.g., glucose level in blood or body temperature) or controlling therapeutic devices (e.g., implanted insulin pumps). These nodes should exhibit a high degree of energy autonomy in order to extend their battery lifetime or even make the node supply to rely on harvesting techniques. Typically, the power budget of WSNs is dominated by the wireless link and, hence, many efforts have been directed during the last years toward the implementation of power efficient transceivers.</p> <p>Because of the short range (typically no more than a few meters) and low data rate (typically in between 10 kb/s and 1 Mb/s), simple communication protocols can be employed. One of these protocols, specifically tailored for WBAN applications, is the Bluetooth low energy (BLE) standard.</p> <p>This book describes the challenges and solutions for the design of ultra-low power transceivers for WBANs applications and presents the implementation details of a BLE transceiver prototype. Coverage includes not only the main concepts and architectures for achieving low power consumption, but also the details of the circuit design and its implementation in a standard CMOS technology.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Ultra Low Power Transceiver for Wireless Body Area Networks【電子書籍】[ Jens Masuch ] 12,154 円

<p><strong>A bold re-conceptualization of the fundamentals driving behavior and dynamics in cyberspace.</strong> Most cyber operations and campaigns fall short of activities that states would regard as armed conflict. In <em>Cyber Persistence Theory</em>, Michael P. Fischerkeller, Emily O. Goldman, and Richard J. Harknett argue that a failure to understand this strategic competitive space has led many states to misapply the logic and strategies of coercion and conflict to this environment and, thus, suffer strategic loss as a result. The authors show how the paradigm of deterrence theory can neither explain nor manage the preponderance of state cyber activity. They present a new theory that illuminates the exploitive, rather than coercive, dynamics of cyber competition and an analytical framework that can serve as the basis for new strategies of persistence. Drawing on their policy experience, they offer a new set of prescriptions to guide policymakers toward a more stable, secure cyberspace.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Cyber Persistence Theory Redefining National Security in Cyberspace【電子書籍】[ Michael P.

<p>The diagnosis of 'Dyslexia' and the medical problematisation of reading difficulties were almost unknown one hundred years ago, yet today the British Dyslexia Association estimates that up to ten per cent of the UK population may have some form of dyslexia, with numbers in the United States estimated to be as high as twenty per cent. The Government of Reading investigates how this problematisation developed and how a diagnostic category was shaped in response to this.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Dyslexia The Government of Reading【電子書籍】[ T.

<p>In 1978, when workers at a nearby phosphate refinery learned that the ore they processed was contaminated with radioactive dust, Karen Messing, then a new professor of molecular genetics, was called in to help. Unsure of what to do with her discovery that exposure to the radiation was harming the workers and their families, Messing contacted senior colleagues but they wouldn’t help. Neither the refinery company nor the scientific community was interested in the scary results of her chromosome studies.</p> <p>Over the next decades Messing encountered many more cases of workers around the worldーfactory workers, cleaners, checkout clerks, bank tellers, food servers, nurses, teachersーsuffering and in pain without any help from the very scientists and occupational health experts whose work was supposed to make their lives easier. Arguing that rules for scientific practice can make it hard to see what really makes workers sick, in <em>Pain and Prejudice</em> Messing tells the story of how she went from looking at test tubes to listening to workers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 Pain and Prejudice What Science Can Learn about Work from the People Who Do It【電子書籍】[ Karen Messing ] 2,563 円

<p>The United States, we are told, is facing an obesity epidemic-a "battle of the bulge" of not just national, but global proportions-that requires drastic and immediate action. Experts in the media, medical science, and government alike are scrambling to find answers. What or who is responsible for this fat crisis, and what can we do to stop it? Abigail Saguy argues that these fraught and frantic debates obscure a more important question: How has fatness come to be understood as a public health crisis at all? Why, she asks, has the view of "fat" as a problem-a symptom of immorality, a medical pathology, a public health epidemic-come to dominate more positive framings of weight-as consistent with health, beauty, or a legitimate rights claim-in public discourse? Why are heavy individuals singled out for blame? And what are the consequences of understanding weight in these ways? <em>What's Wrong with Fat?</em> presents each of the various ways in which fat is understood in America today, examining the implications of understanding fatness as a health risk, disease, and epidemic, and revealing why we've come to understand the issue in these terms, despite considerable scientific uncertainty and debate. Saguy shows how debates over the relationship between body size and health risk take place within a larger, though often invisible, contest over whether we should understand fatness as obesity at all. Moreover, she reveals that public discussions of the "obesity crisis" do more harm than good, leading to bullying, weight-based discrimination, and misdiagnoses. Showing that the medical framing of fat is literally making us sick, <em>What's Wrong with Fat?</em> provides a crucial corrective to our society's misplaced obsession with weight.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 What's Wrong with Fat?【電子書籍】[ Abigail C.
