Obesity and dyslipidemia are well-known contributors to cardiometabolic disorders, including cardiovascular events, chronic kidney disease, and non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD). Various anthropometric measurements to evaluate obesity, especially body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) have commonly been used to predict the risk of obesity-related comorbidities. In addition, several lipid-associated parameters, such as visceral adiposity index (VAI), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index), triglyceride-to-high-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (TG/HDL-C), and lipid accumulation product (LAP) have been adopted to estimate future cardiometabolic risk and even mortality. Nonetheless, further research is needed to determine the clinical use of these measures for cardiometabolic outcomes, and it is currently unknown which metrics or indices convey the highest risk of future cardiometabolic comorbidities and mortality.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 5th IFIP WG 10.2 International Workshop on Software Technologies for Future Embedded and Ubiquitous Systems, SEUS 2007, held in conjunction with ISORC 2007, the 10th IEEE International Symposium on Object/component/service-oriented Real-time Distributed Computing. Coverage includes ubiquitous computing frameworks, validation of embedded and ubiquitous systems, and ubiquitous computing applications.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 25th International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing, Euro-Par 2019, held in Göttingen, Germany, in August 2019.

The papers are organized in 15 topical sections: support tools environments; performance prediction and evaluation; scheduling and load balancing; high-performance architectures and compilers; parallel and distributed data management; grid, cluster and cloud computing; green high performance computing; distributed systems and algorithms; parallel and distributed programming; parallel numerical algorithms; multicore and manycore programming; theory and algorithms for parallel computation; high performance networks and communication; high performance and scientific applications; and GPU and accelerator computing.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 32nd International Workshop on Languages and Compilers for Parallel Computing, LCPC 2019, held in Atlanta, GA, USA, in October 2019. The 8 revised full papers and 3 revised short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 17 submissions. The scope of the workshop includes advances in programming systems for current domains and platforms, e.g., scientific computing, batch/ streaming/ real-time data analytics, machine learning, cognitive computing, heterogeneous/ reconfigurable computing, mobile computing, cloud computing, IoT, as well as forward-looking computing domains such as analog and quantum computing.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the International Conference on Information Networking, ICOIN 2006 held in Sendai, Japan in January 2006. The 98 revised full papers presented were carefully selected and improved during two rounds of reviewing and revision from a total of 468 submissions.
