Colonial Taiwan
This book provides a refreshing and comprehensive analysis on colonial Taiwanese literature. It accentuates its thematic and stylistic richness, challenges the reductive “collaboration-resistance” binary, and calls for a multifaceted literary commonwealth.
Proceedings of the 2011 2nd International Congress on Computer Applications and Computational Science
The latest inventions in computer technology influence most of human daily activities. In the near future, there is tendency that all of aspect of human life will be dependent on computer applications. In manufacturing, robotics and automation have become vital for high quality products. In education, the model of teaching and learning is focusing more on electronic media than traditional ones. Issues related to energy savings and environment is becoming critical. Computational Science should enhance the quality of human life, not only solve their problems. Computational Science should help humans to make wise decisions by presenting choices and their possible consequences. Computational Sci...
The Lenovo Affair
Lenovo is a global leader in the PC market, employing more than 19,000 people worldwide. Its landmark takeover of IBM’s PC division in May 2005 was a major step for the company and a huge boost for Chinese industry. The deal proved to the world that Chinese companies are not only competitive in the domestic markets but can also compete at a global level. Lenovo was founded in 1984 by 11 engineers working out of a small bungalow in Beijing. Their crisis was to create a company that would offer PCs to the Chinese people at an affordable price. Using the brand name, Legend, it promoted PC usage throughout China and developed the revolutionary Legend Chinese character card that translated Engl...
Neural Information Processing
The four-volume proceedings LNCS 13108, 13109, 13110, and 13111 constitutes the proceedings of the 28th International Conference on Neural Information Processing, ICONIP 2021, which was held during December 8-12, 2021. The conference was planned to take place in Bali, Indonesia but changed to an online format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The total of 226 full papers presented in these proceedings was carefully reviewed and selected from 1093 submissions. The papers were organized in topical sections as follows: Part I: Theory and algorithms; Part II: Theory and algorithms; human centred computing; AI and cybersecurity; Part III: Cognitive neurosciences; reliable, robust, and secure machine learning algorithms; theory and applications of natural computing paradigms; advances in deep and shallow machine learning algorithms for biomedical data and imaging; applications; Part IV: Applications.
Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Intelligence Computation and Applications, ISICA 2015, held in Guangzhou, China, in November 2015. The 77 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 189 submissions. The papers feature the most up-to-date research in analysis and theory of evolutionary computation, neural network architectures and learning; neuro-dynamics and neuro-engineering; fuzzy logic and control; collective intelligence and hybrid systems; deep learning; knowledge discovery; learning and reasoning.
Frontiers in the Study of Ancient Plant Remains
In the last two decades, plant biology has developed rapidly, ranging from molecular genetics, cell biology, and physiology to ecology and evolutionary issues, both for economic species and species unrelated to humans. These topics have received intensive attention, however, there is still a large gap in the study of plant biology in prehistoric times, especially those closely related to humans. The identification of plant species in archaeological sites plays an important role in exploring the paleoenvironment, the origin and spread of agriculture, and the relationship between humans and nature. In this research topic, we welcome progress in all aspects of ancient plant fossil research, especially phytoliths, starches, pollen and carbonized seeds, from the mechanisms of plant fossil formation to their phytosystematics, and the associated paleoecology and paleoenvironment.
Conference Proceedings of 2021 International Joint Conference on Energy, Electrical and Power Engineering
This book will be a collection of the papers presented in the 2021 International Joint Conference on Energy, Electrical and Power Engineering (CoEEPE’21), covering new and renewable energy, electrical and power engineering. It is expected to report the latest technological developments in the fields developed by academic researchers and industrial practitioners, with a focus on power electronics, energy storage and system control in energy and electrical power systems. The applications and dissemination of these technologies will benefit research society as new research directions are getting more and more inter-disciplinary which require researchers from different research areas to come together and form ideas jointly. It will also benefit the electrical engineering and power industry as we are now experiencing a new wave of industrial revelation, that is, electrification, intelligentization and digitalization of our transport, manufacturing process and way of thinking.
Tea in China
Tea in China explores the contours of religious and cultural transformation in traditional China from the point of view of an everyday commodity and popular beverage. The work traces the development of tea drinking from its mythical origins to the nineteenth century and examines the changes in aesthetics, ritual, science, health, and knowledge that tea brought with it. The shift in drinking habits that occurred in late medieval China cannot be understood without an appreciation of the fact that Buddhist monks were responsible for not only changing people's attitudes toward the intoxicating substance, but also the proliferation of tea drinking. Monks had enjoyed a long association with tea in...
