High-performance system architectures are increasingly exploiting heterogeneity: multi- and manycore-based systems are complemented by coprocessors, accelerators, and reconfigurable units providing huge computational power. However, applications of scientific interest (e.g. in high-performance computing and numerical simulation) are not yet...
This thesis presents several precise techniques that analyze object-oriented languages for security violations, together with evaluations on Java benchmarks. The key question that will be targeted throughout this work is “Can a given statement directly or indirectly influence another statement, and if this is possible, how can this...
The complexity of technical systems increases continuously. Breakdowns and fatal errors occur quite often, respectively. Therefore, the mission of organic computing is to tame these challenges in technical systems by providing appropriate degrees of freedom for self-organised behaviour. Technical systems should adapt to changing requirements...
It is my pleasure to introduce this volume outlining new directions in computer science investigated by the junior researchers of the faculty of informatics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Each paper presents a young researcher’s scientific contributions and the research vision for a whole junior research group.
Reference provides a systematic approach to lingual orthodontics, allowing clinicians and patients in daily practice to benefit from 'asthetic' treatments. Topics include laboratory procedures, extraction cases, non-extraction mechanics, Hiro system laboratory procedures, and much more. Contains numerous high-quality color...
Als Bill Lubanovic und ich gerade die letzten Änderungen an diesem Buch
vornahmen, belauschte ich in unserem Cisco-Labor ein Gespräch zwischen zwei
Arbeitskollegen, die sich gerade über Linux unterhielten. Der Senior-Netzwerkguru der
beiden ließ dabei eine interessante Bemerkung fallen. Er sagte, dass...
The thermophotovoltaic (TPV) generation of electricity is based on the direct conversion
of a thermal radiation coming from an emitter at high temperature into electric power
by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. As shown in Figure 1.1 a heat source (generally a
combustion process) is used to heat up an emitter material that converts...
30 years after its discovery as an antitumor agent, cisplatin represents today one of the most successful drugs in chemotherapy. This book is intended to reminisce this event, to take inventory, and to point out new lines of development in this field. Divided in 6 sections and 22 chapters, the book provides an up-to-date account on topics...
Fascination with cichlids has taken many aquarists to the point where they go and observe these wonderful fishes in the natural habitat. The hunger for more knowledge about the cichlids’ behavior and distribution, and especially for more new species has led to the introduction of an overwhelming array of previously unknown species and...
No less than eighteen authors have put together the second volume of the cichlids yearbook. It was pleasing that almost all contributors to the first volume were able to write down another piece of their knowledge and experience in this one. In addition eight new authors have written for this volume. Another pleasing fact is that Horst Walter...
Automatic control is becoming more and more important in this age of automation. In manufacturing processes it ensures that certain parameters, such as temperature, pressure, speed cc voltage, take up specific constant values recognized as the optimum. or are maintained in a particular relationship to other variables. In other words, the duty...
There is very little specialist literature available on IMAP servers, and no
current documentation deals with the subject in sufficient depth.
There is a real need for a guide to IMAP. A quick look at relevant mailing
lists shows that they are full of questions and problems, indicating that the
software solutions...
