Wireless Sensor Network Technologies for Information Explosion Era The amount and value of information available due to rapid spread of information technology is exploding. Typically, large enterprises have approximately a petabyte of operational data stored in hundreds of data repositories supporting thousands of applications. Data storage volumes grow in excess of 50% annually. This growth is expected to continue due to vast proliferation of existing infor- tion systems and the introduction of new data sources. Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) represent one of the most notable examples of such new data sources. In recent few years, various types of WSNs have been deployed and the amount of ...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications, ISPA 2005, held in Nanjing, China in November 2005. The 90 revised full papers and 19 revised short papers presented together with 3 keynote speeches and 2 tutorials were carefully reviewed and selected from 645 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on cluster systems and applications, performance evaluation and measurements, distributed algorithms and systems, fault tolerance and reliability, high-performance computing and architecture, parallel algorithms and systems, network routing and communication algorithms, security algorithms and systems, grid applications and systems, database applications and data mining, distributed processing and architecture, sensor networks and protocols, peer-to-peer algorithms and systems, internet computing and Web technologies, network protocols and switching, and ad hoc and wireless networks.
Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) has attracted great research interest in recent years. A Mobile Ad Hoc Network is a self-organizing multi-hop wireless network where all hosts (often called nodes) participate in the routing and data forwarding process. The dependence on nodes to relay data packets for others makes mobile ad hoc networks extremely susceptible to various malicious and selfish behaviors. This point is largely overlooked during the early stage of MANET research. Many works simply assume nodes are inherently cooperative and benign. However, experiences from the wired world manifest that the reverse is usually true; and many works [3] [10] [9] [8] [12] [19] have pointed out that th...
The book covers the recent advances in web technologies and applications such as web data management, web information integration, web services, web data warehousing and web data mining, which rapidly changed our life in various ways.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications, DEXA 2000, held in London in September 2000.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 10th International ICST Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking, and Services, MobiQuitous 2013, held in Tokyo, Japan, in December 2013. The 67 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 141 submissions. The papers and 2 invited talks cover a wide range of topics such as mobile applications, social networks, networking, data management and services.
Almost all pathologists face legal issues when dealing with the specimens they work with on a day-to-day basis, whether it involves quality control and assurance in handling the specimens, facing the possibility of malpractice suits, or serving as an expert witness in a trial. Written in an easy to read, conversational tone, with a dose of good humor, this book fills the need for a handbook that discusses the full spectrum of legal issues that many pathologists face, written from a pathologist's point of view. Organized in 12 user-friendly chapters, the book begins with a comparison of Law and Medicine and explains the basics of the American Legal System. It continues with discussions of the...
