This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference, VISIGRAPP 2010, the Joint Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications (VISAPP), on Imaging Theory and Applications (IMAGAPP), and on Computer Graphics Theory and Applications (GRAPP), held in Angers, France, in May 2010. The 19 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected. The papers are organized in topical sections on computer vision theory and applications; imaging theory and applications; computer graphics theory and applications; and information visualization theory and applications.
Higher eukaryotes are characterized by the allocation of distinct functions to numerous types of differentiated cells. Whereas in animals the well-defined, protected cells of the germ line separate early, germ cells in plants differentiate from somatic cells only after many cycles of mitotic division. Therefore somatic mutations in plants can be transmitted via the germ cells to the progeny. There is thus a clear need for somatic tissues to maintain their genetic integrity in the face of environmental challenges, and two types of interactions have been shown to play important roles in the conservation as well as flexibility of plant genomes: homologous recombination of repeated sequences and...
This book addresses the recent developments in the investigation and manipulation of liquids at the nanoscale. This new field has shown important breakthroughs on the basic understanding of physical mechanisms involving liquid interfaces, which led to applications in nanopatterning. It has also consequences in force microscopy imaging in liquid environment. The book proposes is a timely review of these various aspects. It is co-authored by 25 among the most prominent scientists in the field.
Genealogy of three Balliet families. Paulus Balliet (1717-1777) emigrated from France to Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania in 1738. He married Marie Magdalena Wotring (1721-1802). Joseph Balliet was born in Lorraine, France, son of Abraham Baillet and Susanna Hahn. Joseph came to the U.S. in 1749 and settled in Heidelberg Township, Pennsylvania. Johannes Balliet (1746-1831) settled in Sugar Loaf Valley, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania in 1784. Many descendants lived in Pennsylvania. Others are scattered throughout the U.S.
This Companion to the Nibelungenlied draws on the expertise of scholars from Germany, Britain, and the United States to offer the reader fresh perspectives on a wide variety of topics regarding the epic: the latest theories regarding manuscript tradition, authorship, conflict, combat, and politics, the Otherworld and its inhabitants, eroticism (in both the Nibelungenlied and Wagner's Ring), the twentieth-century reception both of the Nibelungenlied and of its most intriguing protagonist, Kriemhild, key concepts used by the poet, the heroic, feudal, and courtly elements in the work, and an analysis of archetypal elements from the perspective of Jungian psychology.
