Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Introduction to Ion Bean Biotechnology presents an comprehensive primer on radiation-induced mutations and implantation of charged particles altering biological development. As such, its one of the most intriging and leading tools in bioengineering cells. IIBB cover the physics of ions particles, the biological effects of ion implantations in cells, and the subsequent use in bacteria, in viruses, and in plants. IIBB covers important areas:Inducing genetic mutations on the molecular levelInducing cells to catalyze targeted gene transferIon beam technology is a new area, still very youngIIBB will be essentinal reading for any student, reseacher, or industry professional seeking to understand and master the mechanisms of such mutations.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 312 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Biometrics: Personal Identification in Networked Society is a comprehensive and accessible source of state-of-the-art information on all existing and emerging biometrics: the science of automatically identifying individuals based on their physiological or behavior characteristics. In particular, the book covers: General principles and ideas of designing biometric-based systems and their underlying tradeoffs Identification of important issues in the evaluation of biometrics-based systems Integration of biometric cues, and the integration of biometrics with other existing technologies Assessment of the capabilities and limitations of different biometrics The comprehensive examination of biometric methods in commercial use and in research development Exploration of some of the numerous privacy and security implications of biometricsAlso included are chapters on face and eye identification, speaker recognition, networking, and other timely technology-related issues. All chapters are written by leading internationally recognized experts from academia and industry.Biometrics: Personal Identification in Networked Society is an invaluable work for scientists, engineers, application developers, systems integrators, and others working in biometrics.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 424 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Practical Pathology Informatics introduces and demystifies a variety of topics in the broad discipline of pathology informatics with a focus on issues of particular relevance to the practicing anatomic pathologist. Early chapters contain basic information about computers and databases which is applicable to any discipline, with the later chapters containing more anatomic pathology specific topics. Chapters can be read in any order and are divided into short sections.Organized in an easy-to-read format, the book is aimed at providing pathologists and pathology residents with the practical information they need to make intelligent, informed decisions about the deployment and use of information technology tools in their day-to-day practice, and ultimately, better position themselves for informed decision making and intelligent communication with the information systems groups at their institutions.John Sinard, MD, PhD is Associate Professor of Pathology in the Department of Pathology and Director, Pathology Informatics Program at Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 416 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -There are many books on various aspects of nonparametric inference such as density estimation, nonparametric regression, bootstrapping, and wavelets methods. But it is hard to nd all these topics covered in one place. The goal of this text is to provide readers with a single book where they can nd a brief account of many of the modern topics in nonparametric inference. The book is aimed at master¿s-level or Ph. D. -level statistics and computer science students. It is also suitable for researchersin statistics, machine lea- ing and data mining who want to get up to speed quickly on modern n- parametric methods. My goal is to quickly acquaint the reader with the basic concepts in many areas rather than tackling any one topic in great detail. In the interest of covering a wide range of topics, while keeping the book short, I have opted to omit most proofs. Bibliographic remarks point the reader to references that contain further details. Of course, I have had to choose topics to include andto omit,the title notwithstanding. For the mostpart,I decided to omit topics that are too big to cover in one chapter. For example, I do not cover classi cation or nonparametric Bayesian inference. The book developed from my lecture notes for a half-semester (20 hours) course populated mainly by master¿s-level students. For Ph. D.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 284 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Designing products and product families so they may be customized for the global marketplace and achieving these goals in abbreviated time period, while maintaining production efficiencies are the keys to successful manufacturing operations. The research on these areas has matured rapidly over the last decade.Today's highly competitive and volatile marketplace is reshaping the way many companies do business as rapid innovation and mass customization offer a new form of competitive advantage. In response, companies like Sony, Black and Decker, and Kodak have successfully implemented strategies to design and develop an entire family of products to satisfy a wide variety of customer requirements.Product Platform and Product Family Design: Methods and Applications discusses how product platform and product family design can be used successfully to: -increase variety within a product line, -shorten manufacturing lead times, - reduce overall costs within a product line.The material available here will serve as both a reference and a hands-on guide for practitioners involved in the design, planning and production of products. Included are real-life case studies that explain the benefits of platform based product development.Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg 568 pp. Englisch.
