With warm-hearted and friendly promotion by our Japanese friends Prof. - sushi Ohori, Prof. Tetsuo Ida, and Prof. Zhenjiang Hu, and other distinguished professors and scholars from countries and regions such as Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan, the 1st Asian Symposium on Programming Languages andSystems(APLAS2003)tookplaceinBeijing.Wereceived76papers,among which 24 were selected for the proceedings after serious evaluation, which fully demonstrates the high quality of the collected papers. I hereby, on behalf of the Program Committee and the Organization Committee of the symposium, would like to extend the warmest welcome and hearty thanks to all colleagues who attended the symposiu...
This book constitutes the workshop proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Database Systems for Advanced Applications, DASFAA 2010, held in Tsukuba, Japan, in April 2010. The volume contains six workshops, each focusing on specific research issues that contribute to the main themes of the DASFAA conference: The First International Workshop on Graph Data Management: Techniques and Applications (GDM 2010), The Second International Workshop on Benchmarking of Database Management Systems and Data-Oriented Web Technologies (BenchmarkX'10); The Third International Workshop on Managing Data Quality in Collaborative Information Systems (MCIS2010), The Workshop on Social Networks and Social Media Mining on the Web (SNSMW2010), The Data Intensive eScience Workshop (DIEW 2010), and The Second International Workshop on Ubiquitous Data Management (UDM2010).
Life expectancy in Japan, South Korea, and much of urban China has now outpaced that of the United States and other high-income countries. With this triumph of longevity, however, comes a rise in the burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) like diabetes and hypertension, reducing healthy life years for individuals in these aging populations, as well as challenging the healthcare systems they rely on for appropriate care. The challenges and disparities are even more pressing in low- and middle-income economies, such as rural China and India. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the vulnerability to newly emerging pathogens of older adults suffering from NCDs, and the importance o...
This book constitutes the proceedings of the PAKDD Workshops 2008, namely ALSIP 2008, DMDRM 2008, and IDM 2008. The workshops were held in conjunction with the PAKDD conference in Osaka, Japan, during May 20-23, 2008. The 17 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The International Workshop on Algorithms for Large-Sale Information Processing in Knowledge Discovery (ALSIP) focused on exchanging fresh ideas on large-scale data processing in the problems of data mining, clustering, machine learning, statistical analysis, and other computational aspects of knowledge discovery problems. The Workshop on Data Mining for Decision Making and Risk Management (DMDRM) ...
Two-Dimensional Materials for Electromagnetic Shielding Discover a cutting-edge reference on 2D EMI shielding materials for both industrial and academic audiences Two-Dimensional Materials for Electromagnetic Shielding delivers a thorough and comprehensive examination of all aspects of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and microwave absorption, including fundamentals and applications, as well as emerging 2D materials in the field, like graphene, and MXenes. The book covers basic knowledge on shielding mechanisms and the demanding physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of the 2D materials against betrayed electromagnetic waves. The benefits of novel 2D materials over existin...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Workshop on Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems, W2GIS 2005, held in Lausanne, Switzerland in December 2005. The 25 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions and cover a wide range of topics from web semantic and personalization, contextual representation and mapping to querying in mobile environment, to mobile networks and location-based services. The papers are organized in topical sections on mobile GIS and LBS, mapping and representation issues in Web and mobile GIS, mobile networks, querying in a mobile environment, context and personalization issues in Web and mobile GIS, Web GIS, and modeling for Web and mobile GIS.
As the number of cores on a chip continues to climb, architects will need to address both bandwidth and power consumption issues related to the interconnection network. Electrical interconnects are not likely to scale well to a large number of processors for energy efficiency reasons, and the problem is compounded by the fact that there is a fixed total power budget for a die, dictated by the amount of heat that can be dissipated without special (and expensive) cooling and packaging techniques. Thus, there is a need to seek alternatives to electrical signaling for on-chip interconnection applications. Photonics, which has a fundamentally different mechanism of signal propagation, offers the potential to not only overcome the drawbacks of electrical signaling, but also enable the architect to build energy efficient, scalable systems. The purpose of this book is to introduce computer architects to the possibilities and challenges of working with photons and designing on-chip photonic interconnection networks.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems, W2GIS 2007, held in Cardiff, UK, in November 2007. The 21 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. The papers provide an up-to-date review of advances in recent development of Web and wireless geographical information systems, and address a broad range of issues like conceptual and logical models for W2GIS.
