Computational Life Sciences II
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Computational Life Sciences, CompLife 2006, held in Cambridge, UK, in September 2006.The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 56 initial submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on genomics, data mining, molecular simulation, molecular informatics, systems biology, biological networks/metabolism, and computational neuroscience.
Tall Buildings
The structural challenges of building 800 metres into the sky are substantial, and include several factors which do not affect low-rise construction. This book focusses on these areas specifically to provide the architectural and structural knowledge which must be taken into account in order to design tall buildings successfully. In presenting examples of steel, reinforced concrete, and composite structural systems for such buildings, it is shown that wind load has a very important effect on the architectural and structural design. The aerodynamic approach to tall buildings is considered in this context, as is earthquake induced lateral loading. Case studies of some of the world’s most iconic buildings, illustrated with full colour photographs, structural plans and axonometrics, will bring to life the design challenges which they presented to architects and structural engineers. The Empire State Building, the Burj Khalifa, Taipei 101 and the HSB Turning Torso are just a few examples of the buildings whose real-life specifications are used to explain and illustrate core design principles, and their subsequent effect on the finished structure.

Watershed Management and Applications of AI
Land use and water resources are two major environmental issues which necessitate conservation, management, and maintenance practices through the use of various engineering techniques. Water scientists and environmental engineers must address the various aspects of flood control, soil conservation, rainfall-runoff processes, and groundwater hydrology. Watershed Management and Applications of AI provides the necessary principles of hydrology to provide practical strategies useful for the planning, design, and management of watersheds. The book also synthesizes novel new approaches, such as hydrological applications of machine learning using neural networks to predict runoff and using artifici...
困顿与突围：变化世界中的中东政治
中東歷來以「動盪」著稱，西方霸權干涉是不容忽視的重要因素。探討中東問題，如果沒有「陰謀論」的視角顯然不行，不過，這還遠遠不夠。破解中東困局不是只要將一切歸咎於「西方陰謀」就能萬事大吉的。中東困境除了國際體系的原因外，還是中東國家面對域外大國「胡蘿卜加大棒」的選擇性刺激政策，做出反應的結果。在抵御西方給予的某種誘惑（政治支持、經濟援助等）和反抗西方對自強自立的強力鎮壓之間，許多中東當權者不自覺地選擇前者而放棄后者。正是這種看似理性、帶有「賬房先生」思維的「理性選擇」，使中東國家乃至整個地區日趨陷入結構性危機而不自知。識破和戳穿那些包藏禍心的西方戰略不易，而能夠有意識反擊這種危險戰略更為不易。

Cartilage Tissue Engineering and Regeneration Techniques
Osteochondral defects can be challenging to treat, first, because the damaged articular cartilage has a poor intrinsic reparative capability, and second, because these defects cause chronic pain and serious disability. That is why cartilage repair remains one of the most challenging issues of musculoskeletal medicine. Arthroscopic and open techniques that have been developed over the last two decades intend to promote the success of complete repair of the articular cartilage defects; nevertheless, these therapies cannot always offer 100% success. Nowadays, cartilage tissue engineering is an emerging technique for the regeneration of cartilage tissue. Taking into consideration these perspectives, this book aims to present a summary of cartilage tissue engineering, including development, recent progress, and major steps taken toward the regeneration of functional cartilage tissue. Special emphasis is placed on the role of stimulating factors, including growth factors, gene therapies, as well as scaffolds, including natural, synthetic, and nanostructured.
