First published in 1912, this volume provides a list of all Romano-British structures in the British Isles known at the time of publication, complete with references to published works on each structure, arranged by county. This volume omits burial sites and circumstantial evidence for occupation, focusing on a wide range of excavated structures ranging from military defences to foundations and…
Applied Environmental Biotechnology: Present Scenario and Future Trends is designed to serve as a reference book for students and researchers working in the area of applied environmental science. It presents various applications of environmental studies that involve the use of living organisms, bioprocesses engineering technology, and other fields in solving environmental problems like waste an…
First published in 1958 as the third edition of a 1914 original, this book supplies a detailed bibliography of the poet and cleric John Donne. Keynes notes the various editions of Donne's prose and poetic writings, as well as books dedicated to him, his biography by Walton and books from Donne's own library, in addition to each text's location in libraries around the world. This book will be of…
The 3D Angiographic Atlas of Neurovascular Anatomy and Pathology is the first atlas to present neurovascular information and images based on catheter 3D rotational angiographic studies. The images in this book are the culmination of work done by Neil M. Borden over several years using one of the first 3D neurovascular angiographic suites in the United States. With the aid of this revolutionary …
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 30th British International Conference on Databases, BICOD 2015 - formerly known as BNCOD (British National Conference on Databases) - held in Edinburgh, UK, in July 2015. The 19 revised full papers, presented together with three invited keynotes and three invited lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from 37 submissions. S…
This book introduces the theoretical fundamentals for modeling queues in discrete-time, and the basic procedures for developing queuing models in discrete-time. There is a focus on applications in modern telecommunication systems. It presents how most queueing models in discrete-time can be set up as discrete-time Markov chains. Techniques such as matrix-analytic methods (MAM) that can used …
This thesis describes the studies on the solar interior where turbulent thermal convection plays an important role. The author solved, for the first time, one of the long-standing issues in solar physics, i.e., the maintenance mechanism of the solar differential rotation in the near-surface shear layer. The author attacked this problem with a newly developed approach, the reduced speed of sound…
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Applied Cryptography and Network Security, ACNS 2015, held in New York, NY, USA, in June 2015. The 33 revised full papers included in this volume and presented together with 2 abstracts of invited talks, were carefully reviewed and selected from 157 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on secur…
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Data Science, ICDS 2015, held in Sydney, Australia, in August 8-9, 2015. The 19 revised full papers and 5 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 31 submissions. The papers focus on the following topics: mathematical issues in data science; big data issues and applications; data qua…
This book can form the basis of a second course in algebraic geometry. As motivation, it takes concrete questions from enumerative geometry and intersection theory, and provides intuition and technique, so that the student develops the ability to solve geometric problems. The authors explain key ideas, including rational equivalence, Chow rings, Schubert calculus and Chern classes, and readers …
