Computer Science, Technology And Application - Proceedings Of The 2016 International Conference (Csta 2016)
The 2016 International Conference on Computer Science, Technology and Application (CSTA2016) were held in Changsha, China on March 18-20, 2016. The main objective of the joint conference is to provide a platform for researchers, academics and industrial professionals to present their research findings in the fields of computer science and technology.The CSTA2016 received more than 150 submissions, but only 67 articles were selected to be included in this proceedings, which are organized into 6 chapters; covering Image and Signal Processing, Computer Network, Algorithm and Simulation, Data Mining and Cloud Computing, Computer Systems and Application, Mathematics and Management.
Language Exploration and Awareness
"Language Exploration and Awareness: A Resource Book for Teachers, Third Edition" shows English teachers how they can expand their curriculum beyond the traditional emphases on grammar and syntax, to help their students learn about many aspects of the English language, including general semantics, regional and social dialects, syntax, spelling, history of the English language, social language conventions, lexicography, and word origins. Clear, practical, and reader-friendly, the text reviews basic aspects of English language study in classrooms, then illustrates how teachers can create student-centered, inquiry-oriented activities for the learners in their classrooms. Written from a sociocul...
Atrial Fibrillation: Selection of Management Strategy and Evaluation of Outcomes
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an increasing arrhythmia disease; its pathophysiology is the subject of many studies. Rate and rhythm control along with stroke prophylaxis are the cornerstones of AF therapy. With the recent evolution of techniques, AF ablation is becoming the first therapeutic option in many centres worldwide. Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for paroxysmal AF is now well established. Additional methods are now rising with non-PV trigger ablation: such as drivers, posterior wall isolation, epicardial ablation... Recognition of physiopathological signature for AF is the next challenge for all rythmologists. This will be achieved only by collecting different inputs such as imagery a...
Data Science
This two volume set (CCIS 1628 and 1629) constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference of Pioneering Computer Scientists, Engineers and Educators, ICPCSEE 2022 held in Chengdu, China, in August, 2022. The 65 full papers and 26 short papers presented in these two volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 261 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on: Big Data Mining and Knowledge Management; Machine Learning for Data Science; Multimedia Data Management and Analysis.
Developing Contrastive Pragmatics
The present volume is a collection of papers on Contrastive Pragmatics, involving research on interlanguage and cross-cultural perspectives with a focus on second language acquisition contexts. The subdiscipline of pragmatics is seen from a multilingual and multicultural perspective thus contributing to an emerging field of study, i.e. intercultural pragmatics which can be made fruitful to second language teaching/learning and contrastive analysis. The book is an important contribution to general linguistics, pragmatics, cross-cultural communication, second language acquisition, as well as minority issues in multilingual settings.
Superpower?
In his career as a journalist and one of India’s top entrepreneurs, Raghav Bahl has often faced a barrage of questions from visiting businesspeople bewildered by India: Why are Indian regulations so weak and confusing? Why is your foreign investment policy so restrictive? How is it that you speak such good English? Inevitably, the questions are followed by the observation: But, you know, that’s not the way it is in China. Indeed, even as the two economies are together projected to dominate the world, there is a palpable difference in the way China and India work on the ground. China is spectacularly effective in building infrastructure and is currently investing almost half its GDP. Mean...
Authoritarian Absorption
Authoritarian Absorption unveils the transformation of China's pandemic response system from 1978 to 2018 through its battle against HIV/AIDS. Chinese bureaucrats, facing pressure from foreign agencies--especially those of the US and UK--and grassroots social movements, developed ways to turn epidemics into opportunities for enhancing domestic control and international stature. Drawing on longitudinal-ethnographic research, Yan Long reveals how Western liberal interventions can simultaneously bolster public health institutions and reinforce authoritarian power, a development pivotal to China's subsequent handling of COVID-19 and instrumental in advancing the rights of groups like gay men.
The Pragmatics of Academic Writing
This volume investigates to what extent existing approaches to pragmatics and discourse shed light on how the form of a text creates stylistic effects. Taking a cross-cultural perspective, this book focuses on five key stylistic features of writing - paragraph structure, length and construction of sentences, organisation of information in sentences, relative formality of vocabulary, amount of nominalisation - widely seen as partly responsible for the different impressions created by academic writing in English and Italian. The author develops a theoretical framework for the investigation of intuitions about stylistic differences from a contrastive point of view. To this end, the book gives an overview of recent scholarly approaches to writing and reading, genre studies, contrastive rhetoric and the notions of style and stylistics, together with an assessment of several individual approaches.
Phenolic Compounds
Phenolic compounds as a large class of metabolites found in plants have attracted attention since long time ago due to their properties and the hope that they will show beneficial health effects when taken as dietary supplements. This book presents the state of the art of some of the natural sources of phenolic compounds, for example, medicinal plants, grapes or blue maize, as well as the modern methods of extraction, quantification, and identification, and there is a special section discussing the treatment, removal, and degradation of phenols, an important issue in those phenols derived from the pharmaceutical or petrochemical industries.
