This book delves into the fundamental principles that underpin the classification and understanding of bacteria, from the basic concepts to the latest advances. This book encompasses numerous topics related to diversity, such as speciation and evolution of species, microbial diversity, and methods for estimating diversity and taxonomy of bacteria. The reader can gain valuable insights into the cutting-edge techniques used to identify and classify bacteria, such as genomics, metagenomics, and phylogenetic analysis. With expert contributions from leading scientists, this comprehensive guide offers a holistic view of the microbial world in the context of their role in global biodiversity, and explores the upcoming role of machine learning and artificial intelligence for exploration of bacterial diversity. For students and researchers in microbiology, genetics and biotechnology, this book is an essential resource for unravelling the mysteries of bacterial speciation, evolution, diversity, and taxonomy.
This book constitutes selected, revised and extended papers from the 12th International Conference on Computer Supported Education, CSEDU 2020, held as a virtual event in May 2020. The 25 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 190 submissions. The presented papers contribute to the understanding of relevant trends of current research on Computer Supported Education, including learning analytics, intelligent tutoring systems, virtual and augmented reality, MOOCs, and automated assessment systems.
After the well-received 2022 collection, Frontiers in Microbiology is proud to host this Research Topic celebrating women’s work and achievements in the field of Microbial Physiology and Metabolism. Alongside International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month 2023, we will collectively embrace equity in the microbiology community. There is continued gender disparity within core STEM subjects. According to UNESCO Institute for Statistics, just 33% of the world's researchers are women. While the number of women attending university is growing, they still represent the minority of doctoral students and researchers. Women remain under-represented in the highest level of academia, holding just 26% of full professorships. This is even more skewed in industry with just 3% of STEM industry CEOs being women. As highlighted by UNESCO, science and gender equality are essential to ensure sustainable development.
This book presents a selection of peer-reviewed contributions on the latest developments in time series analysis and forecasting, presented at the 7th International Conference on Time Series and Forecasting, ITISE 2021, held in Gran Canaria, Spain, July 19-21, 2021. It is divided into four parts. The first part addresses general modern methods and theoretical aspects of time series analysis and forecasting, while the remaining three parts focus on forecasting methods in econometrics, time series forecasting and prediction, and numerous other real-world applications. Covering a broad range of topics, the book will give readers a modern perspective on the subject. The ITISE conference series provides a forum for scientists, engineers, educators and students to discuss the latest advances and implementations in the foundations, theory, models and applications of time series analysis and forecasting. It focuses on interdisciplinary research encompassing computer science, mathematics, statistics and econometrics.
Inhaltsangabe:Einleitung: Die anhaltend rasante Miniaturisierung magnetischer Speichermedien stellt hohe Anforderungen an die Forschung. So ist es nicht ausreichend, die Größe eines Bits sukzessive zu verringern, auch müssen Schreib- und Lesezyklen immer weiter verkürzt werden. Inzwischen sind Zeitskalen im Bereich von Nanosekunden erreicht und um weitere Verkürzungen zu ermöglichen, ist ein fundamentales Verständnis magnetischer Anregungen unabdingbar. Denn beim Schalten eines Bits muss entweder das Abklingen solcher Anregungen abgewartet oder ihre Erzeugung verhindert werden. Die Wichtigkeit dieses Forschungsgebietes spiegelt sich nicht zuletzt in der Verleihung des Nobelpreises fü...
John Maurice Clark’s article “The Changing Basis of Economic Responsibility,“ published in the Journal of Political Economy, is the topical starting point for all scholars interested in economic responsibility and responsible economic action. John Maurice Clark (1884-1963), a leading institutional economist, reflected on the consequences of the social and economic change taking place at the turn of the last century for the responsibility of individuals, businesses, and corporations and called for the development of an economics of responsibility. This book contains in-depth articles by scholars from within and beyond economics who continue on the Clark project or address actual problems calling for economic responsibility in the light of his approach.
Was macht ein Kind zu einem Kind? Sind Kinder ihren Eltern zur Dankbarkeit verpflichtet? Ist die Schulpflicht eine legitime staatliche Vorgabe? Gibt es ein Recht darauf, Kinder zu haben? Das Handbuch liefert einen systematischen Überblick über die zentralen Konzepte und Theorien sowie die wichtigsten Diskussionsfelder der Philosophie der Kindheit. Zur Debatte stehen neben dem moralischen, rechtlichen und politischen Status von Kindern auch Fragen nach dem instrumentellen oder intrinsischen Wert der Kindheit sowie nach historischen Veränderungen im gesellschaftlichen Umgang mit Kindern.
