The book is divided into 92 categories according to the theme, and is divided into more than 1...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Algorithmic Aspects in Information and Management, AAIM 2006, held in Hong Kong, China in June 2006. The 34 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 263 submissions. The papers cover topics from areas such as online scheduling, game and finance, data structures and algorithms, computational geometry, optimization, graph, and string.
In the fast-developing field of nanomedicine, a broad variety of materials have been used for the development of advanced delivery systems for drugs, genes, and diagnostic agents. With the recent breakthroughs in the field, we are witnessing a new age of disease management, which is governed by precise regulation of dosage and delivery. This book presents the advances in the use of lipid-based and inorganic nanomaterials for medical imaging, diagnosis, theranostics, and drug delivery. The materials discussed include liposome-scaffold systems, elastic liposomes, targeted liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, lipoproteins, exosomes, porous inorganic nanomaterials, silica nanoparticles, and inorganic nanohybrids. The book provides all available information about them and describes in detail their advantages and disadvantages and the areas where they could be utilized successfully.
Nutritional status is a crucial prognostic factor in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The nutritional approach depends on the stage of renal disease, patients’ comorbidities, proteins catabolism, and the presence of malnutrition. The gradual and progressive worsening of kidney function, characterized by a reduced glomerular filtration rate, carries many challenges for both young and elderly patients. Dietetic-Nutritional therapy (DTN) has an important role in the prevention and in the progression of Chronic Kidney Disease. An appropriate nutritional approach contributes to the prevention and control of signs, symptoms, and metabolic complications of CKD such as hyperkalemia, hyperpho...
This proceedings brings together one hundred and fifty two selected papers presented at the 2015 International Conference on Mechanics and Mechatronics (ICMM 2015), which was held in Changsha, Hunan, China, during March 13-15 2015.ICMM 2015 focuses on 7 main areas — Applied Mechanics, Mechanical Engineering, Instrumentation, Automation, and Robotics, Computer Information Processing, and Civil Engineering. Experts in this field from eight countries, including China, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia, contributed to the collection of research results and developments.ICMM 2015 provides an excellent international platform for researchers to share their knowledge and results in theory, methodology and applications of Applied Mechanics and Mechatronics. All papers selected to this proceedings were subject to a rigorous peer-review process by at least two independent peers. The papers are selected based on innovation, organization, and quality of presentation.

First published in 1993. The Cultural Revolution (CR) was undoubtedly one of the most tumultuous and dramatic periods of China's modern history. It was marked by violence, factionalism and economic disruptions. The cataclysm it created had traumatic effects on the majority of the Chinese people, both in their private and professional lives. In this study, the author's emphasise the primordial role of Mao Zedong in instigating and prolonging the Cultural Revolution.
