The theory of almost periodic functions was first developed by the Danish mathematician H. Bohr during 1925-1926. Then Bohr's work was substantially extended by S. Bochner, H. Weyl, A. Besicovitch, J. Favard, J. von Neumann, V. V. Stepanov, N. N. Bogolyubov, and oth ers. Generalization of the classical theory of almost periodic functions has been taken in several directions. One direction is the broader study of functions of almost periodic type. Related this is the study of ergodic ity. It shows that the ergodicity plays an important part in the theories of function spectrum, semigroup of bounded linear operators, and dynamical systems. The purpose of this book is to develop a theory of alm...
The adoption of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in Higher Education teaching has been widespread. This learning strategy has developed the need to learn foreign languages and to communicate with people with different cultural backgrounds. Culture learning should be part of language and content teaching as Higher Education involves language skills, topic comprehension and sociological capabilities. Teachers explore new teaching strategies which imply diverse goals and focus on different cultural backgrounds. The contributions of this book comment the multicultural awareness of the students involved in learning another language and the facts implied in teaching in a multicultural environment.
Migration and the mobility of citizens around the globe pose important challenges to the linguistic and cultural homogeneity that nation-states rely on for defining their physical boundaries and identity, as well as the rights and obligations of their citizens. A new social order resulting from neoliberal economic practices, globalisation and outsourcing also challenges traditional ways the nation-state has organized its control over the people who have typically travelled to a new country looking for work or better life chances. This collection provides an account of the ways language addresses core questions concerning power and the place of migrants in various institutional and workplace settings. It brings together contributions from a range of geographical settings to understand better how linguistic inequality is (re)produced in this new economic order.

Ana tries to ignore him, but when the professor stops tutoring her, the only person she can turn to is Marlon. Yes, he’s handsome, but he...
Annotation This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Intelligent Data Engineering and Automated Learning, IDEAL 2007, held in Birmingham, UK, in December 2007. The 170 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 270 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on learning and information processing, data mining and information management, bioinformatics and neuroinformatics, agents and distributed systems, financial engineering and modeling, agent-based approach to service sciences, as well as neural-evolutionary fusion algorithms and their applications.
