Advances and New Trends in Environmental and Energy Informatics
This book presents the latest findings and ongoing research in the field of green information systems and green information and communication technology (ICT). It provides insights into a whole range of cross-cutting topics in ICT and environmental sciences as well as showcases how information and communication technologies allow environmental and energy efficiency issues to be handled effectively. The papers presented in this book are a selection of extended and improved contributions to the 28th International Conference on Informatics for Environmental Protection dedicated to ICT for energy efficiency. This book is essential and particularly worth reading for those who already gained basic knowledge and want to deepen and extend their expertise in the subjects mentioned above.
Information Systems for Sustainable Development
Information Systems for Sustainable Development provides a survey on approaches to information systems supporting sustainable development in the private or public sector. It also documents and encourages the first steps of environmental information processing towards this more comprehensive goal.
Create Your Own Photo Book
These days, photographs live on hard drives and DVDs in the company of several thousand other images, coming to light on a computer screen only for a short moment, if ever. In that respect our computer is a one-image-at-a-time exhibition of our photographic work. But as photographers, we like to print our best images, frame and show them at home or at an exhibition, or present a collection of prints in a portfolio. This book will guide you through the process of creating a printed and bound portfolio of your photographs, or even a bookstore-quality coffee table book. Learn about every step of the process, from selecting a book publishing service all the way through designing and proofing your photo book. You'll get practical advice on how to work with software provided by services such as Blurb or Viovio, and will learn about relevant concepts of book design, color management, and digital printing. Create your Own Photo Book is the perfect guide for the aspiring amateur photographer as well as the seasoned pro.
META-X®-Software for Metapopulation Viability Analysis
Meta-X is a user-friendly computer program that allows students, teachers, and researchers to perform a metapopulation viability analysis i.e. to assess the extinction risk of (meta)populations on discrete, partially isolated patches of habitat, in a comfortable way. The CD comes with an extensive handbook which explains the basic concept of the program and takes you on a guided tour through a model experiment. It further provides the necessary scientific background on both metapopulation dynamics and population viability analysis. A special feature of Meta-X is that it supports comparative analyses of alternative scenarios. This predestines Meta-X to serve as an aid for decision making in conservation management and landscape planning. Furthermore, handbook and software together provide an invaluable help in research and teaching.
Mechanisms of Hormone Action
Mechanisms of Hormone Action: A NATO Advanced Study Institute focuses on the action mechanisms of hormones, including regulation of proteins, hormone actions, and biosynthesis. The selection first offers information on hormone action at the cell membrane and a new approach to the structure of polypeptides and proteins in biological systems, such as the membranes of cells. Discussions focus on the cell membrane as a possible locus for the hormone receptor; gaps in understanding of the molecular organization of the cell membrane; and a possible model of hormone action at the membrane level. The text also ponders on insulin and regulation of protein biosynthesis, including insulin and protein b...
Information Technologies in Environmental Engineering
Increasing environmental concerns demand interdisciplinary approaches enabling engineers, natural scientists, economists and computer scientists to work together. Information technology is vital to all scientists involved in environmental engineering, covering modeling and simulation, information systems, formal methods and data processing techniques, tools and measurement techniques. This book presents the proceedings of the ITEE 07 conference, where new concepts as well as practical applications and experiences in environmental engineering were presented and discussed.
ICT Innovations for Sustainability
ICT Innovations for Sustainability is an investigation of how information and communication technology can contribute to sustainable development. It presents clear definitions of sustainability, suggesting conceptual frameworks for the positive and negative effects of ICT on sustainable development. It reviews methods of assessing the direct and indirect impact of ICT systems on energy and materials demand, and examines the results of such assessments. In addition, it investigates ICT-based approaches to supporting sustainable patterns of production and consumption, analyzing them at various levels of abstraction – from end-user devices, Internet infrastructure, user behavior, and social p...

Autonomes Fremdsprachenlernen
Dieses Buch ist 2011 mit dem Bremer Forschungspreis des AKS (Arbeitskreis der Sprachenzentren in Deutschland) ausgezeichnet worden. Wie kann Lernerautonomie beim Fremdsprachenlernen wissenschaftlich begründet und praxisorientiert definiert und beschrieben werden? Welche Komponenten, Kompetenzen und Strategien gehören dazu? Welches Instrument kann Lerner und Lehrer in autonomen Lernprozessen unterstützen? In dieser Arbeit wird durch eine explorativ-interpretative Forschungsmethodologie ein dynamisches Autonomiemodell mit Deskriptoren entwickelt, das Lernerautonomie systematisch beschreibt und von Lernern oder Lehrern zur Selbsteinschätzung der eigenen Kompetenzen oder zur Reflexion über den Lernprozess verwendet werden kann. Das Autonomiemodell und die Deskriptoren wurden durch ein qualitatives Verfahren mit Experten am Centre de Recherches et d'Applications Pédagogiques en Langues (CRAPEL) der Université Nancy 2 und am Sprachenzentrum der Freien Universität Berlin validiert und mit Studierenden und Lehrenden erprobt.
