Insights in Neuro-Oncology and Neurosurgical Oncology: 2021
We are now entering the third decade of the 21st Century, and, especially in the last years, the achievements made by scientists have been exceptional, leading to major advancements in the fast-growing field of Oncology. Frontiers has organized a series of Research Topics to highlight the latest advancements in research across the field of Oncology, with articles from the Associate Members of our accomplished Editorial Boards. This editorial initiative of particular relevance, led by Prof. David Eisenstat, Specialty Chief Editor of the Neuro-Oncology and Neurosurgical Oncology section, together with Prof. Erik Sulman, focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, latest di...
Process Measurement in Business Process Management
Process measurement deals with the quantification of business process models using process model metrics. This book presents a theoretical framework for the prediction of external process model attributes (as, for example, error-proneness and understandabiltiy) based on internal (structural) attributes. The properties of proposed metrics are analyzed. A visualization technique for metric values is introduced and metrics for process model understandability and granularity are evaluated.
Social Science Data Analysis
In this book, basic statistical knowledge is conveyed in an understandable and application-oriented manner. The readers should be enabled to carry out their own empirical evaluations and to understand or critically reflect on existing analyses. The third edition is extended by a detailed chapter on the logic of significance tests. A replication syntax for the statistical program Stata is provided online as supplementary material.
Advances in Transoral Approaches for Laryngeal Cancer
We live in an era of increasing availability of highly technological tools that allow for reducing, where possible, the invasiveness of the surgical procedures needed to remove cancer. Also in the head and neck area, transoral procedures increasingly replace the traditional, more invasive, open access procedures. Crucial developments promoting this evolution were the popularization of transoral laser microsurgery and, more recently, transoral robotic approaches. It is logical to expect that these approaches will entail better function for the patients, and thus better quality of life, provided that the obtained oncological radicality is the same or better than that obtained with the more inv...
Title IX and the Protection of Pregnant and Parenting College Students
This book explores the discrepancies among what protections Title IX provides to pregnant and parenting students, what colleges communicate, and what pregnant and parenting students actually experience. To actually protect pregnant and parenting students, the authors argue that a school must provide multifaceted support that is effectively communicated to an entire campus community, including students who are parenting, who are pregnant, and who may become pregnant. The first part of the book portrays the realities of pregnancy and parenting in college. The chapters illuminate related Title IX applications, population demographics, how unplanned pregnancies in college occur, and physical and...
Systematic Chasing for Economic Success: An Innovation Management Approach for German SME's in Drive Technology Business
The industry of the German drive technology is dominated by SME's, and must supply its products to customers around the world. In addition, this industrial segment is challenged by competitors from many other countries, and from customers with a variety of different needs. Therefore, there are two questions that arose for SME's. Firstly, 'what is the best strategy to take an advantage in the competition', and secondly, 'how does the strategies can be used in the most efficient way.' The structure, the essential needs and the boundary conditions will be derived from the analysis of the industrial segment. In addition, a suitable strategy that should take an advantage in the worldwide competition will be analysed and discussed. In the end, the author develops an innovative management process and a toolbox for SME's to make this strategy applicable to a company.
Progress in Colour Studies
This volume presents authoritative and up-to-date research in colour studies by specialists across a wide range of academic disciplines, including vision science, psychology, psycholinguistics, linguistics, anthropology, onomastics, philosophy, archaeology and design. The chapters have been developed from papers and posters presented at the Progress in Colour Studies (PICS2016) conference held at University College London in September 2016. The book continues the series from the earlier PICS conferences, which have become renowned for their insights into colour in language and cognition. In the present book all chapters have been rigorously peer-reviewed and revised to ensure the highest standards throughout. The chapters are grouped into three sections: Colour Perception and Cognition; The Language of Colour; and The Diversity of Colour. Each section is preceded by a short introduction drawing together the themes of its chapters. There are over 120 colour illustrations.
Regionalgeschichte
In der modernen Geschichtswissenschaft bietet die Auseinandersetzung mit Regionen die Chance, jenseits der übergeordneten Zusammenhänge auf staatlicher oder globaler Ebene Einblicke in die Entwicklung kleinerer Räume und ihrer Positionierung zu aktuellen Ereignissen wie auch zu strukturellem Wandel zu erlangen. Um den aktuellen Stand und die Potentiale regionalgeschichtlicher Forschung zu verdeutlichen, versammelt der Band Beiträge, die auf der Grundlage von Fallbeispielen Quellen, Methoden, Akteure und vergleichende Perspektiven beleuchten und deren Inhalte sich zeitlich vom Mittelalter bis in die Zeitgeschichte erstrecken. Der geographische Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem nördlichen Deutschland und wird immer wieder in europäische Kontexte eingebunden.
Simulation of Automotive Radar Point Clouds in Standardized Frameworks
The simulation of the vehicle’s environmental sensors, the so-called sensor simulation, is crucial for testing and validating autonomous driving. Automobile manufacturers are increasingly focusing on a standardized architecture with a high level of abstraction. In order to simulate the sensors, such as radar sensors, most realistically on a point cloud level, data-based methods are used in many cases. In general, and specifically in case of radar sensors, there are still challenges to be faced. Therefore, four research questions are addressed: Is it possible to generate synthetic training data for data-based models? Which statistical approaches are suitable to simulate radar point clouds a...
Eggonomics
What happens when people are reduced to products? By pulling back the clinical curtain on the multi-billion-dollar per year global egg industry, that is the central question Eggonomics seeks to address. Tracing the emotional and physical journeys egg donors embark upon as suppliers of valuable commodities, this book reveals uncomfortable realities at the heart of the industry. Donors — and the eggs they provide — are absolutely essential to helping others create the families of their dreams. But not all clinics treat their donors as well as their paying patients, and many donors suffer as a result. Technological innovations allow the egg donation industry to expand, fueling the private e...
