This two-volume set (CCIS 873 and CCIS 874) constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 9th International Symposium, ISICA 2017, held in Guangzhou, China, in November 2017.The 101 full papers presented in both volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 181 submissions. This first volume is organized in topical sections on neural networks and statistical learning: neural architecture search, transfer of knowledge; evolutionary multi-objective and dynamic optimization: optimal control and design, hybrid methods; data mining: association rule learning, data management platforms; Cloud computing and multiagent systems: service models, Cloud engineering; everywhere connectivity: IoT solutions, wireless sensor networks.
Intestinal flora is a diversified and dynamic micro-ecosystem, whose structure and function have become a research hotspot in life sciences and medicine. The close relationship between intestinal flora and metabolic diseases has been verified by numerous studies. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is used for disease prevention and treatment within China and is attracting attention and receiving more and more recognition from other countries all over the world. Consequently, the interaction of the two hotspots deserves further investigation. Although TCM has been put into practice for thousands of years, the study of its specific mechanism of action and related targets for the treatment of endocrine diseases is still at an exploratory stage. For TCM with oral administration as the main usage, the key targets of their active ingredients may be inextricably linked to the decomposition and metabolic effects of certain intestinal bacterium. All these hypotheses need to be tested further.

This book offers the first comprehensive introduction to the optical properties of the catenary function, and includes more than 200 figures. Related topics addressed here include the photonic spin Hall effect in inhomogeneous anisotropic materials, coupling of evanescent waves in complex structures, etc. After familiarizing readers with these new physical phenomena, the book highlights their applications in plasmonic nanolithography, flat optical elements, perfect electromagnetic absorbers and polarization converters. The book will appeal to a wide range of readers: while researchers will find new inspirations for historical studies combining mechanics, mathematics, and optics, students wil...
Vols. for 1963- include as pt. 2 of the Jan. issue: Medical subject headings.
This handbook volume is part of the Reference Series: Micro/Nano Technologies. This individual volume provides a comprehensive, self-contained, and authoritative knowledge in nanomedicine. It covers the theoretical and practical aspects of functionalizations of nanoparticles as nanomedicine, including surface activation, characterization, and microemulsion systems. As a Springer Major Reference Work it is continuously updated online, allowing newcomers and other readers to keep in touch with the most up-to-date information. The book is particularly recommended to undergraduates, postgraduates, researchers, scientists, and field experts. It will inspire innovations in the highly interdisciplinary field of nanomedicine.
