PlanetSim
Research community on distributed systems, and in particular on peer-to-peer systems, needs tools for evaluatins their own protocols and servces, as well as against other protocols with the same precondictions. Since a TCP/IP experimental evaluation is not always feasible, simulation tools appeared. In this paper we introduce PlanteSim, a discrete event-based simulation framework for overlay networks and services, as well as extensions from third parties that prove its true extensibility and adaptability to the researchers' needs. In addition, we introduce within PlanetSim a novel way of implementing peer-to-peer overlay protocols based on behaviors.

From Where We Stand
This original study examines women's activism against war in areas as far apart as Sierra Leone, India, Colombia and Palestine. It shows women on different sides of conflicts in the former Yugoslavia and Israel addressing racism and refusing enmity and describes international networks of women opposing US and Western European militarism and the so-called 'war on terror'. These movements, though diverse, are generating an antimilitarist feminism that challenges how war and militarism are understood, both in academic studies and the mainstream anti-war movement. Gender, particularly the form taken by masculinity in a violent sex/gender system, is inseparably linked to economic and ethno-national factors in the perpetuation of war.

Parallel Programming, Models and Applications in Grid and P2P Systems
The demand for more computing power has been a constant trend in many fields of science, engineering and business. Now more than ever, the need for more and more processing power is emerging in the resolution of complex problems from life sciences, financial services, drug discovery, weather forecasting, massive data processing for e-science, e-commerce and e-government etc. Grid and P2P paradigms are based on the premise to deliver greater computing power at less cost, thus enabling the solution of such complex problems. Parallel Programming, Models and Applications in Grid and P2P Systems presents recent advances for grid and P2P paradigms, middleware, programming models, communication lib...
Schizophrenia Treatment Outcomes
This book analyzes schizophrenia management in the context of recent clinical therapeutic advances that have transformed the measurements and outcomes landscape. Unlike any other resource, this volume carefully develops the social and clinical guidelines that affect the life of the patient and defines its role in schizophrenia treatment outcomes. The text begins by determining the concepts, development, neuroscience, and guidelines for positive outcomes before analyzing the gaps in the literature. The text addresses medical concerns in relation to outcomes in schizophrenic patients, including substance use, impact from antipsychotic medications, and medical comorbidities. The text also cover...
Minimalist Interiors
Drawing from cultural developments as diverse as modernist art and Asian philosophy, minimalism in interior design is nothing less than a celebration of the perfect expression of space. Minimalist Interiors presents 26 examples of residences from around the world that perfectly balance essential elements of shape, light, and form to create truly unique living spaces. From a glass house to a house without walls, from an extention of a single-family home to apartment renovations, this book presents solutions and ideas for all types of residences. Interiors for every room in the house are included, in varying sizes, all from well-known architects and designers who specialize in minimalist treatment Through exquisite photography, technical plans, and innovative design, Minimalist Interiors will inspire home design enthusiasts to achieve the same effects -- creating an intensely personal oasis of tranquility in their own home.

Risk Factors for Psychosis
Risk Factors for Psychosis: Paradigms, Mechanisms, and Prevention combines the related, but disparate research endeavors into a single text that considers all risk factors for psychosis, including biological, psychological and environmental factors. The book also introduces the ethics and current treatment evidence that attempts to ameliorate risk or reduce the number of individuals with risk factors developing a psychotic disorder. Finally, the book highlights new research paradigms that will further enhance the field in the future. Psychotic disorders affect more than 50 million people worldwide, creating a devastating effect on lives and causing major financial and emotional impact on fam...
