This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Data Science, ICDS 2015, held in Sydney, Australia, during August 8-9, 2015. The 19 revised full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The papers focus on the following topics: mathematical issues in data science; big data issues and applications; data quality and data preparation; data-driven scientific research; evaluation and measurement in data service; big data mining and knowledge management; case study of data science; social impacts of data science.
Flaviviruses are a diverse group of small RNA enveloped viruses, many of which are important human and animal pathogens. The best known include dengue virus, yellow fever virus, Japanese encephalitis virus, and West Nile virus. These viruses are endemic in many tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. Dengue virus alone infects over 100 million people annually. In recent years, research on flaviviruses has progressed at a remarkable rate, leading to significant advances in our understanding of virus biology. This should ultimately lead to the development of better vaccine and antiviral strategies. This up-to-date and cutting-edge anthology contains contributions from the leading exper...

At last here is the long-awaited, first Western-language reference guide focusing exclusively on Chinese literature from ca. 700 B.C.E. to the early seventh century C.E. Alphabetically organized, it contains no less than 1095 entries on major and minor writers, literary forms and "schools," and important Chinese literary terms. In addition to providing authoritative information about each subject, the compilers have taken meticulous care to include detailed, up-to-date bibliographies and source information. The reader will find it a treasure-trove of historical accounts, especially when browsing through the biographies of authors. Indispensable for scholars and students of pre-modern Chinese literature, history, and thought. Part Three contains Xia - Y. Part Four contains the Z and an extensive index to the four volumes.
Using recent archaeological findings and little-known archival material, Wang Zhenping introduces readers to the world of ancient Japan as it was evolving toward a centralized state. Competing Japanese tribal leaders engaged in "ambassador diplomacy" and actively sought Chinese support and recognition to strengthen their positions at home and to exert military influence on southern Korea. They requested, among other things, the bestowal of Chinese insignia: official titles, gold seals, and bronze mirrors. Successive Chinese courts used the bestowal (or denial) of the insignia to conduct geopolitics in East Asia. Wang explains in detail the rigorous criteria of the Chinese and Japanese courts...
The aim of the book was to produce the most comprehensive examination of a pandemic that has ever been attempted. By cataloging the full extent of the Zika pandemic, this book will be the most complete history and epistemic contextualization ever attempted to date. The work should function as the primary source for students, researchers, and scholars who need information about the Zika pandemic. This book examines the technical literature, digital and popular literature, and online materials to fully contextualize this event and provide a bona fide record of this event and its implications for the future. It is somewhat serendipitous that while this work was underway, we are going through an...
This book constitutes revised papers from the 12th International Conference on Large-Scale Scientific Computing, LSSC 2019, held in Sozopol, Bulgaria, in June 2019. The 70 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. The book also contains two invited talks. The papers were organized in topical sections named as follows: control and optimization of dynamical systems; meshfree and particle methods; fractional diffusion problems: numerical methods, algorithms and applications; pore scale flow and transport simulation; tensors based algorithms and structures in optimization and applications; HPC and big data: algorithms and applications; large-scale models: numerical methods, parallel computations and applications; monte carlo algorithms: innovative applications in conjunctions with other methods; application of metaheuristics to large-scale problems; large scale machine learning: multiscale algorithms and performance guarantees; and contributed papers.
