Explorations of Chinese Theoretical and Applied Linguistics
This volume explores the implications of Chinese for linguistic theory building and for the field of second language acquisition. Bringing together selected papers from the first International Symposium on Chinese Theoretical and Applied Linguistics, it sheds light upon under-documented topics in a variety of areas within theoretical and applied research. The topics covered here include competing approaches within optimality theory to phonological opacity, formal solutions to puzzles in Shanghainese morphosyntax, and different approaches to polarity items and presentational sentences in Chinese. With regard to applied linguistics, the contributions in this volume address challenges in the acquisition of Chinese phonology by L1 Danish speakers as well as the acquisition of the Mandarin ba construction by Cantonese learners, and the expression of social judgements in the L1 and L2. Taken together, the papers in this volume contribute to the empirical documentation of aspects of the Chinese language and its acquisition, as well as helping to unpack the significance of Chinese for mainstream linguistic theory.
Computer Performance Evaluation. Modelling Techniques and Tools
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Modelling Techniques and Tools for Computer Performance Evaluation, TOOLS 2003, held in Urbana, IL, USA, in September 2003. The 17 revised full papers presented together with a keynote paper were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in topical sections on tools for measuring, benchmarking, and online control; tools for evaluation of stochastic models; queueing models; Markovian arrival processes and phase-type distributions; and supporting model-based design of systems.
Molecular pharmacological approaches against lung diseases: targeted drug discovery
Molecular Pharmacological approaches against lung diseases: targeted drug discovery The global burden of lung diseases is rising continuously and is a constant concern. Lung diseases of concern, including asthma, infection (pneumonia), lung cancer, abnormal build-up of fluid, swelling, and inflammation, both neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases, are listed as the third leading cause of death by the World Health Organization. The most common disease in the lungs includes asthma, cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease etc. The respiratory issues listed here, among others, are exacerbated by environmental toxicants which directly come in contact with the lung architecture thereby causing lung pathologies resulting in the exacerbated immune response in affected patients. Biologically active molecules including small or large molecular weight compounds from natural or synthetic sources exhibit prominent pharmacological properties that impact health by modulating disease pathophysiology, and influence the ligand-receptor interactions, depending upon the pathway and their bioavailability.

The papers are organized in topical sections on peer-to-peer networks, Internet protocols, wireless security, network security, wireless performance, network service support, network modeling and simulation, wireless LAN, optical networks, Internet performance and Web applications, ad-hoc networks, adaptive networks, radio resource management, Internet routing, queuing models, monitoring, network management, sensor networks, overlay multicast, QoS, wirless scheduling, multicast traffic management and engineering, mobility management, bandwith management, DCMA, and wireless resource management.
Probability and Statistics with Reliability, Queuing, and Computer Science Applications
An accessible introduction to probability, stochastic processes, and statistics for computer science and engineering applications Second edition now also available in Paperback. This updated and revised edition of the popular classic first edition relates fundamental concepts in probability and statistics to the computer sciences and engineering. The author uses Markov chains and other statistical tools to illustrate processes in reliability of computer systems and networks, fault tolerance, and performance. This edition features an entirely new section on stochastic Petri nets—as well as new sections on system availability modeling, wireless system modeling, numerical solution techniques ...
Machinery, Materials Science And Energy Engineering (Icmmsee 2015) - Proceedings Of The 3rd International Conference
With the rapid development of machinery, materials science and energy engineering technology in China, new theories and application results constantly appear. Higher and newer requirements in these fields are sought by business enterprises and members of the engineering profession.This conference was held to further promote the exchange and cooperation among local researchers, to upgrade the academic standards and international influence on the study of these fields in China, and to play a positive role in bridging the gap with the international research community.This volume consists of 106 peer-reviewed articles by local and foreign eminent scholars which cover the frontiers and hot topics in machinery and process equipment, materials science, energy engineering and mechatronics.
Specification and Analytical Evaluation of Heterogeneous Dynamic Quorum-Based Data Replication Schemes
Data replication by employing quorum systems is an important concept to improve operation availability on data objects in distributed systems that have strong data consistency demands. These data replication schemes must be modeled and carefully evaluated with respect to different quality measures. Christian Storm addresses the former by a uniform data replication scheme specification method and realizes the latter by a comprehensive approach to the analytical evaluation of quorum-based data replication schemes. The system model allows to evaluate operation availability and other quality measures for the write as well as for the read operation.
Digital And Parametric Architecture
Digital And Parametric Architecture explores the development of the latest digital tools including advance modeling software and computer aided design in the production of architecture. It is a journey through the most fascinating projects, digitally designed and fabricated, during the second decade of the 21st century. The book highlights the use of these technologies to explore tectonic operations such as sectioning, folding, contouring, and tessellating. A wide variety of projects that range in scale and location offer an insight into the architecture of the future.
A Notional Analysis of Chinese Academic Discourse on China
Notional Analysis of Chinese Academic Discourse on China presents an executive summary of Chinese academic discourse about China’s progress and achievements in the past one hundred years. Using a scientometric method to analyze bibliographic records retrieved from the largest library database in China on aspects of Chinese Studies, this book offers an insider’s view regarding social, cultural, historical and political aspects of China that have never been systematically published in English before. This book first follows a quantitative approach using bibliometric analysis to identify keywords in the Chinese academic works about China in conceptual clusters for the past hundred years. Th...
