  • Publisher: IGI Global

Reconfigurable computing brings immense flexibility to on-chip processing while network-on-chip has improved flexibility in on-chip communication. Integrating these two areas of research reaps the benefits of both and represents the promising future of multiprocessor systems-on-chip. This book is the one of the first compilations written to demonstrate this future for network-on-chip design. Through dynamic and creative research into questions ranging from integrating reconfigurable computing techniques, to task assigning, scheduling and arrival, to designing an operating system to take advantage of the computing and communication flexibilities brought about by run-time reconfiguration and network-on-chip, it represents a complete source of the techniques and applications for reconfigurable network-on-chip necessary for understanding of future of this field.

Megacity Slums: Social Exclusion, Space And Urban Policies In Brazil And India

This book looks at slums and social exclusion in the four major megacities of India and Brazil, and analyzes the interrelationships between urban policies and housing and environmental issues. In Delhi, Mumbai, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, the challenges they pose have spurred public actors into action through housing, rehabilitation and conservation programs, not to mention civil society and the inhabitants themselves. On the other hand, one must wonder whether these challenges were partly created by the deficiencies of these very public actors and civil society, be it their lack of intervention (as advocates of government intervention would argue), or the flaws and inadequacies of their actions (as supporters of the free market would suggest). Are policies alleviating or aggravating social exclusion? This book explores these questions and more.

Liver Cancer Awareness Month 2023: Current Progress and Future Prospects on Advances in Primary Liver Cancer Investigation and Treatment

October is the Liver Cancer Awareness Month and at Frontiers in Oncology we want to highlight the recent discoveries in the field and raise awareness of the importance of early diagnosis, multidisciplinary management, and technological innovation support. Primary liver cancer represents a significant global health challenge, with its incidence steadily rising and posing substantial morbidity and mortality rates. This research topic in Frontiers in Oncology focuses on the latest advancements in the investigation and treatment of primary liver cancer, addressing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma to provide insights into cutting-edge approaches to shaping the field and improving patient outcomes

Treatment and Prognostic Assessment of Liver Cirrhosis and Its Complications

About 2 million deaths worldwide annually are attributable to liver diseases. Among them, half die from cirrhosis and the other half from viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma. When patients with liver cirrhosis develop to the decompensated stage, a variety of complications will occur, such as ascites, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, and jaundice, which will seriously affect the patient's quality of life with reduced survival time and increased socioeconomic burden. Therefore, early assessment and clinical management of cirrhosis and its complications are crucial for both clinicians and patients.

  • Publisher: Routledge

Contending that everyday sociability and social networks are central elements to an understanding of urban poverty, Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South draws on detailed research conducted in São Paulo in an examination of the social networks of individuals who identify as poor. The book uses a multi-methods approach not only to test the importance of networks, but also to disentangle the effects of networks and segregation and to specify the relational and spatial mechanisms associated with the production of poverty. It thus explores the different types of network that exist amongst the metropolitan poor, the conditions that shape and influence them, their consequences for the production of poverty and the mechanisms through which networks influence daily living conditions. A rigorous examination of poverty in a contemporary megacity, Opportunities and Deprivation in the Urban South will appeal to sociologists, political scientists and geographers with interests in urban studies, poverty and segregation and social networks.
