Presents an introduction to the discipline of biodiversity informatics. This book describes the key components of how to deal with or use informatics techniques in order to manage biodiversity knowledge. Suitable for senior-level undergraduates it provides a fundamental overview of the key concepts and techniques for managing biodiversity data.

This is a pre-1923 historical reproduction that was curated for quality. Quality assurance was conducted on each of these books in an attempt to remove books with imperfections introduced by the digitization process. Though we have made best efforts - the books may have occasional errors that do not impede the reading experience. We believe this work is culturally important and have elected to bring the book back into print as part of our cont...

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The primary focus of this book is to link the role of sputtering methods, source of sputtering materials and characteristics of sputtered thin films as they apply to industries such as semiconductors, flat-panel displays, data storage and photovoltaics.Sarkar reviews essential industry-related topics, including technology trends, process flows for device manufacturing, sputtering processes, including hollow cathode magnetron, materials science...

Argues that the discursive erasure of Muslim women within colonial and Hindu nationalist discourse underpinned the construction of other identity categories in late colonial Bengal and remains linked to violence against Indian Muslim women today.

An analysis of the physics of multiantenna systems Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology is one of the current hot topics in emerging wireless technologies. This book fills the important need for an authoritative reference on the merits of MIMO systems based on physics and provides a sound theoretical basis for its practical implementation. The book also addresses the important issues related to broadband adaptive processing. Writ...

Several studies on poverty show that passive development of labour poverty, low economic growth and less investment on social development by the Sates are some of the critical reasons for this chronic problem. Poverty and vulnerability are complex issues, whose thorough understanding is crucial in order to inform pro-poor and efficient policy approaches. This study aimed to contribute to such an understanding by exploring livelihood situations...

An impressive collection of writings on women's issues in Indian history

The story of the sinking of the HMS Royal Oak by German submarine which cost the lives of 833 Royal Navy sailors.

In a global economy developing talent is of paramount importance for sustained growth.Yet we know little about the influence of culture on training effectiveness.Using data from 5327 working employees representing 49 countries, this study examined the influence of national culture on transfer of training.Multilevel analysis was used to account for differences due to individual level and culture level factors. Results suggest that at the indivi...

This book takes a close look at the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) under the WTO, a multilateral trade agreement with a purpose of liberalising services trade. The book is divided into two parts. Part A looks into the ambiguities present in the trade laws in GATS and how some of these ambiguities have been resolved though settled disputes in the WTO. Part B of the book looks into one particular service sector, that is, education...

This is a reproduction of a book published before 1923. This book may have occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process. We believe this work is culturally important, and despite the imperfections, have elected to bring it back into print as part of our continuing commitment to the preservation of printed w...

Poverty is one of the most fundamental issues, and urgently needs to be addressed. Moving people out of poverty forms a basis of much international development policy. Getting rid of poverty is a tremendous challenge for the global community. Although everyone agrees on the goal of poverty lessening, policies often remain contentious or futile. Given that livelihoods of millions are at stake, there is an imperative demand to reconsider the cau...

A provocative interpretation of Descartes that claims the cogito should be read as an intuition.

This book analyzes the unsteady, viscous flow-field of an oscillating airfoil. This has ramifications on understanding the flapping flight of natural biological systems like fishes and invertebrates. It also helps towards a better aerodynamic design and understanding of flapping types MAVs. The flow-field simulation is performed with a grid-free Lagrangian particle based solver using vorticity particles. An examination of the unsteady aerodyna...
