Working the System
In Working the System: Motion Picture, Filmmakers, and Subjectivities in Mao-Era China, 1949–1966, Qiliang He inquired into the making of the new citizenry in Mao-era China (1949–1976) by studying five preeminent Shanghai-based filmmakers. These case studies shed light on how individuals’ subjectivities took shape in the cinematic arena under a new sociopolitical system after 1949. He suggests that a filmmaker’s subjectivity was not fixed or stable but constantly in flux, requiring a host of “subjectivizing practices” to (re)shape and consolidate it. These filmmakers endeavored to reap maximal benefits from Mao’s sociopolitical system and minimize the disadvantages that would m...

Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference conference was held virtually.The 14 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. The book is organized in four general areas of cyber-physical intelligent computing, secure cloud systems and cloud-based privacy, cloud-based IoT architecture, and cloud cCmputing applications.
When Friendship Comes First
This inspiring book looks at the theory and practice of China’s foreign aid in Africa, especially in the area of healthcare in Uganda. It provides insights into how recipient countries and regions are selected, and describes in detail how the men and women working in the frontlines deliver aid. Information from past research, participant observations, interviews and other fieldwork are brought together to form a comprehensive picture of how Chinese development aid for health to Uganda has evolved over three decades, how it is carried out now, and the significance of such milestones as the building of the China-Uganda Friendship Hospital. The author also compares and contrasts China’s foreign aid with that from other countries.
Genealogy and Status
By shedding light on a long-forgotten epigraphic genre that flourished in North China during the Mongol Empire, or Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368), Genealogy and Status explores the ways the conquered Chinese people understood and represented the alien Mongol ruling principles through their own cultural tradition. This epigraphic genre, which this book collectively calls “genealogical steles,” was quite unique in the history of Chinese epigraphy. Northern Chinese officials commissioned these steles exclusively to record a family’s extensive genealogy, rather than the biography or achievements of an individual. Tomoyasu Iiyama shows how the rise of these steles demonstrates that Mongol rule ...

Plant Protein and Proteome Altlas--Integrated Omics Analyses of Plants under Abiotic Stresses
Integrative omics of plants in response to stress conditions play more crucial roles in the post-genomic era. High-quality genomic data provide more deeper understanding of how plants to survive under environmental stresses. This book is focused on concluding the recent progress in the Protein and Proteome Atlas in plants under different stresses. It covers various aspects of plant protein ranging from agricultural proteomics, structure and function of proteins, and approaches for protein identification and quantification. A total of 27 papers including two timely reviews have contributed to this Special Issue. In the first part with the topic of “Comparative Proteomics of Different Plants...
Perspectives in Genetic and Epigenetic Regulatory Mechanisms in Dental and Craniofacial Biology
Genetic factors have been proved to be involved in almost all dental and craniomaxillofacial diseases. Typical dental and craniomaxillofacial hereditary diseases refer to hereditary diseases which occurs in the oral and maxillofacial area, as well as systemic or other system hereditary diseases accompanied by oral abnormality. The former includes enamel hypoplasia, dentin hypoplasia and cleft lip and palate, which mainly occur in the oral cavity. While the latter commonly includes cranial clavicle hypoplasia, congenital ectodermal hypoplasia, osteogenesis imperfecta, and osteosclerosis. In addition, common diseases that appear locally in the oral cavity, including caries, periodontitis, oral...
Information Retrieval Technology
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 4th Asia Information Retrieval Symposium, AIRS 2008, held in Harbin, China, in May 2008. The 39 revised full papers and 43 revised poster papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 144 submissions. All current issues in information retrieval are addressed: applications, systems, technologies and theoretical aspects of information retrieval in text, audio, image, video and multi-media data. The papers are organized in topical sections on IR models image retrieval, text classification, chinese language processing, text processing, application of IR, machine learning, taxonomy, IR methods, information extraction, summarization, multimedia, Web IR, and text clustering.
