This book gathers a selection of original articles and critical reviews presented at the 21st International Taurine Meeting, held in Shenyang, China in May 2018, which discussed and disseminated the latest findings on taurine, especially in human life. The book is divided into eight parts, which respectively address: Taurine and Metabolism, Taurine and Nutrition, Taurine and Organ Dysfunction, Taurine and Heart Health, Taurine and Anti-cancer, Taurine and Anti-oxidation / Anti-microbial, Taurine and Neuroprotection, and Taurine and Anti-inflammatory. These latest discoveries concerning the functions and advantageous effects of taurine on the health of various human body systems will not only advance the treatment of human diseases and the quality of human life, but also promote further research into the applications of taurine in human health.
This book presents the combined proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Computer Science and its Applications (CSA 2019) and the 14th KIPS International Conference on Ubiquitous Information Technologies and Applications (CUTE 2019), both held in Macau, China, December 18–20, 2019. The aim of these two meetings was to promote discussion and interaction among academics, researchers and professionals in the field of ubiquitous computing technologies. These proceedings reflect the state of the art in the development of computational methods, involving theory, algorithms, numerical simulation, error and uncertainty analysis and novel applications of new processing techniques in engineering, science and other disciplines related to ubiquitous computing.
I can say with absolute certainty that, everybody enjoys watching movies, cinema, films and television. But few, if any, know how a film is made: a film has inbuilt special effects or 'tricks'to make it appealing to audiences. MOVING CAMERAS AND LIVING MOVIES reveals to you ALL about films & Filmmaking; it is a hard and tasking enterprise involving tens of thousands of workers and millions of investment dollars.

Learn the fascinating, exciting world of film, actresses, actors, fashion, and fictional entities.
Given the boost in global immigration and migration, as well as the emphasis on creating inclusive classrooms, research is turning to the challenges that teachers face with the increasing need for bilingual and multilingual education. The benefits of bilingual education are widespread, allowing students to develop important cognitive skills such as critical thinking and problem solving as well as opening further career opportunities later in life. However, very few resources are available for the successful practice and implementation of this education into the curriculum, with an even greater lack of appropriate cultural representation in the classroom. Thus, it is essential for educators t...
The summer of 2016 saw one of the most significant citizen protests in the history of democratic South Korea, eventually culminating in the impeachment and conviction of then President Park Geun-hye for corruption. Concerns about the president's behavior were raised in a polarized media environment with low public trust, where extreme right-wing media outlets amplified conspiracy theories and false claims in opposition to impeachment. How then was it possible for pro-impeachment protests seeking major social change to succeed? And why did pro-Park protesters and government efforts to defend Park ultimately fail? Based on interviews with key players in the impeachment movement and original an...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Grid and Pervasive Computing, GPC 2007, held in Paris, France in May 2007. It covers all aspects of grid and pervasive computing and focuses on topics such as cluster computing, grid computing, semantic Web and semantic grid, service-oriented computing, peer-to-peer computing, mobile computing, as well as grid and pervasive related applications.
Recent research suggests that good relationships between parents and their children’s providers or teachers could lead to positive outcomes for children and families. Positive, mutually respectful, and collaborative relationships between families and schools and education providers and teachers contribute to young children’s school readiness, increase positive family engagement in children’s programs, and strengthen home-program connection, a critical factor to children’s school success. Bridging Family-Teacher Relationships for ELL and Immigrant Students is a comprehensive reference source that focuses on research-based pedagogical practices for teaching young English language learn...
