Proceedings of the International Workshop on Computational Intelligence in Security for Information Systems CISIS 2008
The research scenario in advanced systems for protecting critical infrastructures and for deeply networked information tools highlights a growing link between security issues and the need for intelligent processing abilities in the area of information s- tems. To face the ever-evolving nature of cyber-threats, monitoring systems must have adaptive capabilities for continuous adjustment and timely, effective response to modifications in the environment. Moreover, the risks of improper access pose the need for advanced identification methods, including protocols to enforce comput- security policies and biometry-related technologies for physical authentication. C- putational Intelligence method...
Computational Intelligence in Security for Information Systems
The Second International Workshop on Computational Intelligence for Security in Information Systems (CISIS’09) presented the most recent developments in the - namically expanding realm of several fields such as Data Mining and Intelligence, Infrastructure Protection, Network Security, Biometry and Industrial Perspectives. The International Workshop on Computational Intelligence for Security in Infor- tion Systems (CISIS) proposes a forum to the different communities related to the field of intelligent systems for security. The global purpose of CISIS conferences has been to form a broad and interdisciplinary meeting ground offering the opportunity to interact with the leading industries ac...
Nutrients and Cancer Prevention
During the last 10 years, the role of specific nutrients in cancer prevention and cancer treatment has been the subject of intense basic, preclinical, and clinical research. At present, the major focus of nutri tional oncology is on the mechanisms of carcinogenesis and their modification by nutrients and on cancer prevention studies in animals and humans. Some human epidemiological studies have confirmed the hypothesis, developed on animals, that there is an inverse relation ship between the intake and/or level of !3-carotene, vitamin A vita min E, or vitamin C and the risk of cancer, whereas others have shown no such relationship. This is not unexpected, since the protective effect of indiv...
Lacrimal Gland, Tear Film, and Dry Eye Syndromes
During the past decade a significant international research effort has been directed towards understanding the composition and regulation of the preocular tear film. This effort has been motivated by the recognition that the tear film plays an essential role in maintaining corneal and conjunctival integrity, protecting against microbial challenge and preserving visual acuity. In addition, research has been stimulated by the knowledge that alteration or deficiency of the tear film, which occurs in countless individuals throughout the world, may lead to desiccation of the ocular surface, ulceration and perforation of the cornea, an increased incidence of infectious disease, and potentially, pr...
Genetic and Phenotypic Markers of Tumors
The study of tumor markers is not only one of the most important but also one that offers one of the richest perspectives in biology and clinical oncology. The aim of scientists in this field is to adduce evidence of a property that is typical of and exclusive to tumor cells, and which is easy to determine, in order to immediately recognize, or even better, to foresee, neoplastic transformations. Unfortunately, despite the large number of scientists and laboratories engaged in this work, the ideal tumor marker has not yet been identified. However, it is worth noting that new trends in molecular biology and immunovirology have recently opened up new avenues that may lead to the eventual resol...
Aptasensors for Point-of-Care Diagnostics
The design and fabrication of aptamer-based biosensors for point-of-care testing of disease diagnostic and prognostic is an upthrust and interdisciplinary area of research. This book covers the design and development of novel cost-effective aptamer-based biosensors for disease diagnostic and prognostic including an understanding of health care management in terms of timely updates of disease situations in a particular geographical area. It also discusses the scaling up and market trend of aptamer-based devices for extension of research from lab to market, and end users. Features: Explains the design and fabrication of aptasensors-based diagnostic devices. Includes novel approaches and compre...
Disordered Materials
The teaching of solid state physics essentially concerns focusing on crystals and their properties. We study crystals and their properties because of the simple and elegant results obtained from the analysis of a spatially periodic system; this is why the analysis can be made considering a small set of atoms that represent the whole system of many particles. In contrast to the formal neat approach to crystals, the study of str- turally disordered condensed systems is somewhat complicated and often leads to relatively imprecise results, not to mention the experimental and computational e?ort involved. As such, almost all university textbooks, - cluding the advanced course books, only brie?y t...
Metals and the Skin
"Addresses the increase of toxic heavy metals in the environment. Sets the standard for future research in interactions between the skin and metals and metal compounds-covering the general toxicology of 35 metals and metalloids, their occurrence in the environment, significance in nutrition, skin diffusivity, occupational exposure risks, and immunotoxicity."
Novel Nanostructured Materials for Electrochemical Bio-sensing Applications
Novel Nanostructured Materials for Electrochemical Bio-sensing Applications presents a detailed overview into the fabrication of electrochemical bio-sensing devices. The book addresses the challenges and opportunities relating to sustainable and biocompatible sensors from food, water and wearable applications to the various nanostructured biocompatible materials required for sensor fabrication. In addition, it explores the connection between nanomaterials and sensors and takes into consideration different and novel approaches such as toxic materials monitoring and health issues correlated with the use of nanomaterials. Users will find exciting insight into innovations in nanostructured elect...
