This volume contains the proceedings of the 18th IFIP International Conference on Testing Communicating Systems (TestCom 2006).
This book presents the foundations of the theory of groups and semigroups acting isometrically on Gromov hyperbolic metric spaces. Particular emphasis is paid to the geometry of their limit sets and on behavior not found in the proper setting. The authors provide a number of examples of groups which exhibit a wide range of phenomena not to be found in the finite-dimensional theory. The book contains both introductory material to help beginners as well as new research results, and closes with a list of attractive unsolved problems.
The previous edition of Transmembrane Signaling Protocols was published in 1998. Since then the human genome has been completely sequenced and new methods have been developed for the use of microarrays and proteomics to analyze global changes in gene expression and protein profiles. These advances have increased our ability to understand transmembrane signaling processes in much greater detail. They have also simultaneously enhanced our ability to determine the role of a large number of newly identified molecules in signaling events. In addition, novel video microscopy methods have been developed to image transmembrane signaling events in live cells in real time. In view of these major advan...
Monika Krajewska – doktor nauk humanistycznych, adiunkt w Katedrze Filologii Słowiańskiej UMK w Toruniu. Tłumaczka, autorka prac z zakresu przekładoznawstwa, współredaktorka czasopisma „Rocznik Przekładoznawczy. Studia nad teorią, praktyką i dydaktyką przekładu”. Mariusz Wilk przez ponad dwie dekady mieszkał na północy Rosji, co znajduje odbicie w dziennikach pisarza – nie tylko w podejmowanych zagadnieniach, ale też w języku. Jednakże Wilk nie pozostawia czytelnika bez odpowiedniego wsparcia – wprowadza do tekstu wyjaśnienia, dołącza do słów przypisy, dodaje „Glosariusz”. Północny cykl, obejmujący „Wilczy notes”, „Wołokę”, „Dom nad Oniego...
Collision-Based Computing presents a unique overview of computation with mobile self-localized patterns in non-linear media, including computation in optical media, mathematical models of massively parallel computers, and molecular systems. It covers such diverse subjects as conservative computation in billiard ball models and its cellular-automaton analogues, implementation of computing devices in lattice gases, Conway's Game of Life and discrete excitable media, theory of particle machines, computation with solitons, logic of ballistic computing, phenomenology of computation, and self-replicating universal computers. Collision-Based Computing will be of interest to researchers working on relevant topics in Computing Science, Mathematical Physics and Engineering. It will also be useful background reading for postgraduate courses such as Optical Computing, Nature-Inspired Computing, Artificial Intelligence, Smart Engineering Systems, Complex and Adaptive Systems, Parallel Computation, Applied Mathematics and Computational Physics.
The first monograph to explore the beautiful and rich dynamics of elliptic functions, with an emphasis on ergodic aspects.
In this book, generally speaking, some properties of bitopological spaces generated by certain non-symmetric functions are studied. These functions, called "probabilistic quasi-pseudo-metrics" and "fuzzy quasi-pseudo-metrics", are generalisations of classical quasi-pseudo metrics. For the sake of completeness as well as for convenience and easy comparison, most of the introductory paragraphs are mainly devoted to fundamental notions and results from the classical -- deterministic or symmetric -- theory.
