This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Advanced Parallel Processing Technologies, APPT 2003, held in Xiamen, China in September 2003. The 57 revised full papers and 21 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 191 full paper submissions. All current aspects in parallel and distributed computing are addressed ranging from hardware and software issues to algorithmic aspects and advanced applications. The papers are organized in topical sections on architecture, software and theory, grid and network, and applied technologies.
Presents a novel design that allows for a great deal of customization, which many current methods fail to include; Details a flexible, comprehensive design that can be easily extended when necessary; Proven results: the versatility of the design has been effectively tested in implementations ranging from microcontrollers to supercomputers
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of 5 workshops co-located with SAFECOMP 2012, the 31st International Conference on Computer Safety, Reliability, and Security, held in Magdeburg, Germany, in September 2012. The 49 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. According to the workshops covered, the papers are organized in topical sections on: next generation of system assurance approaches for safety-critical systems (Sassur), architecting safety in collaborative mobile systems (ASCoMS), dependable and secure computing for large-scale complex critical infrastructures (DESEC4LCCI), ERCIM/EWICS/cyberphysical systems (ERCIM/EWICS), and on digital engineering (IWDE).
The Sixth International Workshop on Persistent Object Systems was held at Les Mazets des Roches near Tarascon, Provence in southern France from the fifth to the ninth of September 1994. The attractive context and autumn warmth greeted the 53 participants from 12 countries spread over five continents. Persistent object systems continue to grow in importance. Almost all significant uses of computers to support human endeavours depend on long-lived and large-scale systems. As expectations and ambitions rise so the sophistication of the systems we attempt to build also rises. The quality and integrity of the systems and their feasibility for supporting large groups of co-operating people depends...

Included for the first time, are two brand new sections on the key areas of Autoimmune Pancreatitis and Benign Cystic Neoplasms. In addition, this edition is filled with over 500 high-quality illustrations, line drawings, and radiographs that provide a step-by-step approach to all endoscopic techniques and surgical procedures. Each of these images can be downloaded via an online image bank for use in scientific presentations. Every...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th International Symposium on Stabilization, Safety, and Security of Distributed Systems, SSS 2012, held in Toronto, Canada, in October 2012. The 21 full papers and 10 brief announcements presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 75 submissions. The conference provides a wide spectrum of topics, covered in the following tracks: self-stabilization, ad-hoc and sensor networks, fault-tolerance and dependable systems, safety and security, cloud computing, formal methods, social networks, peer-to-peer, self-organizing and autonomic systems.
This collection of chapters describes in detail the latest insights into the evaluation of resectability and neoadjuvant therapy to pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer. Shedding light on immunotherapy and gene therapy, this volume comprehensively covers treatments and procedures for the disease, allowing surgeons and trainees to gain an overview and explore innovative treatments. It also provides information on various cases using tools such as endoscopic ultrasound, MDCT, PET for diagnosis and laparoscopy and robotic resection methods. Edited and authored by pioneering professionals, Diagnosis and Treatment for Pancreatic Cancer is a valuable resource for gastroenterologists, medical oncologists, surgical oncologist and general surgeons interested in treatment of pancreatic cancer care.
