This book presents methodological and application research in detecting cellular and molecular biophysical properties based on atomic force microscopy (AFM) nanorobotics. Series methods for in situ label-free visualizing and quantifying the multiple physical properties of single cells and single molecules were developed, including immobilization strategies for observing fine structures of living cells, measurements of single-cell mechanics, force recognition of molecular interactions, and mapping protein organizations on cell surface. The biomedical applications of these methods in clinical lymphoma treatments were explored in detail, including primary sample preparation, cancer cell recognition, AFM detection and data analysis. Future directions about the biomedical applications of AFM are also given.

A Two-port Framework for Robust and Optimal Control introduces an alternative approach to robust and optimal controller synthesis procedures for linear, time-invariant systems, based on the two-port system widespread in electrical engineering. The novel use of the two-port system in this context allows straightforward engineering-oriented solution-finding procedures to be developed, requiring no mathematics beyond linear algebra. A chain-scattering description provides a unified framework for constructing the stabilizing controller set and for synthesizing H2 optimal and H8 sub-optimal controllers. Simple yet illustrative examples explain each step.A Two-port Framework for Robust and Optimal Control features:· a hands-on, tutorial-style presentation giving the reader the opportunity to repeat the designs presented and easily to modify them for their own programs;· an abundance of examples illustrating the most important steps in robust and optimal design; and· end-of-chapter exercises.To further demonstrate the proposed approaches, in the last chapter an application case study is presented which demonstrates the use of the framework in a real-world control system design and helps the reader quickly move on with their own challenges. MATLAB® codes used in examples throughout the book and solutions to selected exercise questions are available for download.The text will have particular resonance for researchers in control with an electrical engineering background, who wish to avoid spending excessive time in learning complex mathematical, theoretical developments but need to know how to deal with robust and optimal control synthesis problems.Please see [http://km.emotors.ncku.edu.tw/class/hw1.html] for solutions to the exercises provided in this book.

Climate Change and Biodiversity
R.B. Singh, Mehtab Singh, M.I. Hassan
- Springer
- 9 Mai 2014
- 9784431548386
The over-exploitation of important earth resources such as land and water has led to a number of environment-related problems the world over. At the same time, land-use change caused by various human activities has led to extinction of many plant and animal habitats and species. In this context, the relevance of biodiversity for human survival is becoming a major international political issue as scientific evidence builds on the global health implications of biodiversity loss. These issues are closely linked with the issue of climate change, as many of the health risks due to climate change are associated with rapid degradation of biodiversity. This present work focuses on holistic natural resource-based spatio-temporal planning, development, and management and considers them as essential to save the degraded ecosystem for sustainable resource management. Contributions are compiled in two volumes: 1. Climate Change and Biodiversity and 2. Landscape Ecology and Water Management. Geoinformatics along with its tools such as remote sensing and geographical information systems (GIS) have been used in assessing the results of various environmental problems both physical and social. The volume will be useful for geographers, geoscientists, hydrologists, landscape ecologists, environmentalists, engineers, planners and policy makers.

Fully Homomorphic Encryption in Real World Applications
Ayantika Chatterjee, Khin Mi Mi Aung
- Springer
- 29 Mars 2019
- 9789811363931
This book explores the latest developments in fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), an effective means of performing arbitrary operations on encrypted data before storing it in the `cloud'. The book begins by addressing perennial problems like sorting and searching through FHE data, followed by a detailed discussion of the basic components of any algorithm and adapting them to handle FHE data. In turn, the book focuses on algorithms in both non-recursive and recursive versions and discusses their realizations and challenges while operating in the FHE domain on existing unencrypted processors. It highlights potential complications and proposes solutions for encrypted database design with complex queries, including the basic design details of an encrypted processor architecture to support FHE operations in real-world applications.

Dieses Buch beleuchtet zentrale Aspekte und Herausforderungen für Marketing und Innovation in disruptiven Zeiten. Die Digitalisierung und der Technologiefortschritt führen zu strukturellen Veränderungen bei den Marktparteien. So halten immer mehr technologische Innovationen Einzug in den Alltag der Kunden auf Konsum- und Businessmärkten, die deren Verhaltensweisen verändern und neue Marktspielregeln bilden. Insbesondere Informationstechnologien ermglichen über die Erfassung von Kundendaten und Big-Data-Analysen tiefe Einblicke in die Lebenswelten der Kunden, die den Anbietern dabei helfen, ihre Leistungen optimal an die spezifischen Kundenbedürfnisse anzupassen. Diese innovativen Technologien der Anbieter besitzen eine disruptive Kraft, da sie das Potenzial besitzen, das Beschaffungs- und Nutzungsverhalten der Kunden nachhaltig zu beeinflussen. Aufgrund der Neuheit empfinden die Nachfrager in diesem Zusammenhang aber auch große Unsicherheiten, welche die Adaption und Diffusion der neuen Technologien hemmen und damit zu Nachfrage- und Nutzungslücken führen knnen. Vor dem Hintergrund der skizzierten strukturellen Veränderungen auf der Kunden- und Anbieterseite, die durch die aktuellen Entwicklungen auf den Weltmärkten noch einen zusätzlichen Schub erhalten, werden in diesem Werk Lsungsansätze für die genannten Herausforderungen aufgezeigt und diskutiert.
