Computational Intelligence Methods for Bioinformatics and Biostatistics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Meeting on Computational Intelligence Methods for Bioinformatics and Biostatistics, CIBB 2012, held in Houston, TX, USA during in July 2012. The 16 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 23 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on relativistic heavy ions and DNA damage; image segmentation; proteomics; RNA and DNA sequence analysis; RNA, DNA, and SNP microarrays; semi-supervised/unsupervised cluster analysis.

Safety Design for Space Systems
Progress in space safety lies in the acceptance of safety design and engineering as an integral part of the design and implementation process for new space systems. Safety must be seen as the principle design driver of utmost importance from the outset of the design process, which is only achieved through a culture change that moves all stakeholders toward front-end loaded safety concepts. This approach entails a common understanding and mastering of basic principles of safety design for space systems at all levels of the program organisation. Fully supported by the International Association for the Advancement of Space Safety (IAASS), written by the leading figures in the industry, with fro...

Range and Energy Straggling in Ion Beam Transport
A first-order approximation to the range and energy straggling of ion beams is given as a normal distribution for which the standard deviation is estimated from the fluctuations in energy loss events. The standard deviation is calculated by assuming scattering from free electrons with a long range cutoff parameter that depends on the mean excitation energy of the medium. The present formalism is derived by extrapolating Payne's formalism to low energy by systematic energy scaling and to greater depths of penetration by a second-order perturbation. Limited comparisons are made with experimental data.
An Improved Elastic and Nonelastic Neutron Transport Algorithm for Space Radiation
In addition, a high-energy bidirectional neutron source based on a formula by Ranft showed even further improvement of the fluence results over previous results near the front of the water target where diffusion out the front surface is important. Effects of improved interaction cross sections are modest compared with the addition of the high-energy bidirectional source terms.
Biological Effects and Physics of Solar and Galactic Cosmic Radiation Part B
Space missions subject human beings or any other target of a spacecraft to a radiation environment of an intensity and composition not available on earth. Whereas for missions in low earth orbit (LEO), such as those using the Space Shuttle or Space Station scenario, radiation exposure guidelines have been developed and have been adopted by spacefaring agencies, for exploratory class missions that will take the space travellers outside the protective confines of the geomagnetic field sufficient guidelines for radiation protection are still outstanding. For a piloted Mars mission, the whole concept of radiation protection needs to be reconsidered. Since there is an increasing interest of many ...
