Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Le cefalee rappresentano uno dei problemi che più spesso il medico deve affrontare. Esse hanno aspetti clinici proteiformi ai quali corrispondono diversi indirizzi di cura. Per orientarsi di fronte ad una situazione così complessa, occorrono esperienze e chiari punti di riferimento, entrambi presenti in quest'opera. Gli argomenti sono trattati in modo piano e sintetico e con un approccio eminentemente pratico, ma con gli opportuni riferimenti ai problemi fisiopatologici indispensabili ad un approfondimento delle conoscenze. I contenuti del manuale sono l'elaborazione dei tre moduli del Corso di formazione sulle Cefalee che l'Associazione per una Scuola delle Cefalee (ASC), braccio formativo dell'Associazione Neurologica Italiana per la Ricerca sulle Cefalee (ANIRCEF), organizza ormai dal 1999.Questo volume, a cui hanno contribuito diversi specialisti con capitoli di loro preminente interesse scientifico e clinico, si pone come un testo pratico per il clinico e quindi come un 'compagno di lavoro' nell'attività quotidiana.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book argues that the right-wing revolution in the United States has created deepening inequality and will lead to economic catastrophe. The author makes the case that over the past three decades the rich have confiscated wealth and income from the poor and middle class to a far greater extent than many realize, and he explores in detail important but commonly unmeasured dimensions of inequality. He also takes aim at the economics profession, criticising the analytical blinders that leave economists incapable of seeing the coming crisis. 239 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Distributed processing has a strong theoretical foundation, but many day-to-day practitioners make limited use of the advantages this theory can give them. The result includes unreliable systems with obscure and intermittent failures, that can cost time, money and in extreme cases, lives. Reliable construction of distributed and concurrent systems must incorporate theory in practice. This book provides a concise presentation of the theory closely linked to the practical realization of these concepts. This highly practical presentation contains all the elements needed for a complete development of a distributed system. The book includes examples from C, Java and Eiffel, and sample code is available online. 288 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Behind genetics and Markov chains, there is an intrinsic algebraic structure. It is defined as a type of new algebra: as evolution algebra. This concept lies between algebras and dynamical systems. Algebraically, evolution algebras are non-associative Banach algebras; dynamically, they represent discrete dynamical systems. Evolution algebras have many connections with other mathematical fields including graph theory, group theory, stochastic processes, dynamical systems, knot theory, 3-manifolds, and the study of the Ihara-Selberg zeta function. In this volume the foundation of evolution algebra theory and applications in non-Mendelian genetics and Markov chains is developed, with pointers to some further research topics. 148 pp. Englisch. …

Buch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Edward Muybridge (1830-1904) is known as the pioneer in motion capt- ing with his famous experiments in 1887 called 'Animal Locomotion'. Since then, the eld of animal or human motion analysis has grown in many dir- tions. However, research and results that involve human-like animation and the recovery of motion is still far from being satisfactory. The modelling, tracking, and understanding of human motion based on video sequences as a research eld has increased in importance particularly in thelastdecadewiththeemergenceofapplicationsinsportssciences,medicine, biomechanics, animation (online games), surveillance, and security. Progress in human motion analysis depends on empirically anchored and grounded research in computer vision, computer graphics, and biomechanics. Though these elds of research are often treated separately, human motion analysis requires the integration of methodologies from computer vision and computer graphics.Furthermore,theunderstandinganduseofbiomechanicsconstraints improves the robustness of such an approach. This book is based on a June 2006 workshop held in Dagstuhl, Germany. This workshop brought together for the rst time researchers from the afo- mentioned disciplines. Based on their diverse perspectives, these researchers havebeendevelopingnewmethodologiesandcontributing,throughtheir - ings, to the domain of human motion analysis. The interdisciplinary character of the workshop allowed people to present a wide range of approaches that helped stimulate intellectual discussions and the exchange of new ideas. 636 pp. Englisch.…
