Most of recent linguistic researches are dedicated to the analysis of communicative discourse and to the study of speech in its functional aspect which has led to the amplification of interaction of linguistics with other humanities. However, linguistic researches which concern this topic lack thorough analysis of pragmatic concept of verbal manipulation, its strategies and tactics in conversational discourse and linguistic means of manipulati...

What are the causes of banking crises? How do economic networks emerge? This book introduces innovative methods to answer these and related questions. Banking networks are at the core of the contagion processes that took place during the last international financial crisis that affected many developed countries. A domestic economic crisis can turn into a global crisis through financial channels. New approaches are needed to better understand t...

A Quality Information System (Q.I.S.) employed for attaining higher degree of quality, would bring about major benefits for an organization. Particularly, a financial accounting system is an imperative to accomplish this requirement which would enable TQM professionals to gauge the performance of Q.I.S. from the perspective of financial elements, with the help of well-proven accounting statements namely Profit and Loss Account and Balance Shee...

This book presents new research results on channel characterization and modeling. MIMO channel characterization and modeling techniques are investigated. The first part exposes a generalized and systematic representation of systems and channels in the spatio-temporal domains. It is a generalization of the concepts introduced in the research literature: it consists of a set of sixteen kernel functions and eight system functions, in time, freque...

The objective of this work is to design and implement a CMOS power amplifier for GSM Applications. Recent study shows that more analog blocks are being integrated onto single silicon CMOS Chip. The power amplifier becomes the final block in the transmit path and has to amplify the signal to required power level. Power amplifiers are extensively used in cell phones, base stations, cordless phones, WLAN etc. Class-C has become more useful where ...

In an attempt to slow the exhaustion of the Internet Protocol (IP) address space, Class-less Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) was adopted. However, the decision to utilize CIDR also increases the size of the routing table, since it allows an arbitrary partitioning of the routing space. A scheme to reduce the size of routing table in the CIDR context is detailed. A well-known and highly e¿cient heuristic to perform 2-level logic minimization is exte...

About the Book: The goal of this text is to help students, researchers and academicians, who are working in the field of CAD for VLSI. Network-on-Chip(NoC) has been recently developed as an on-chip communication solution for System-on-Chip(SoC) design. This paradigm supports various communication resources at a time and overcomes the limitations of bus-based System. Design space exploration methodology at system level reduces the time-to-marke...

What instruments play what kind of roles in the creation of subjective positions? Examining the formation of Ottoman subjectivity as a case, this study is an attempt to find original answers to this question. The study bases itself on the opportunities offered by a particular psychoanalytic theory, namely, that of a French psychoanalyst, Jacques Lacan. Two of Lacan's productively scrutinized concepts, namely the "real" and the "imaginary", are...

Cancer is a disease of uncontrolled cell growth and proliferation that is predicted to directly affect 1 in 3 Canadians. Standard chemotherapy that targets DNA or its replicative machinery effectively eradicates cancer cells, but also causes non-specific toxicity to healthy cells. Pancratistatin, a natural alkaloid isolated from Hymenocallis littoralis, was found to selectively induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in many types of human ca...

Rural-Urban migration is the most crucial component of internal migration of any country. It plays an important role in poverty reduction and economic development. In Bangladesh rural-urban migration is the most important factor for rapid urbanization. In urban centres slum is a popular destination for poor rural-urban migrants. More than 15 million people lives in the slums of six divisional cities of Bangladesh. Megacity Dhaka, capital of Ba...

Recently, mobile communications have developed rapidly due to the endless demand for broadband multimedia access and wireless connection anywhere, and any time. To harvest the advantages of these enabling technologies maximally, both tremendous opportunities, and major challenges are current in the research of signal processing specially for channel estimation (CE). CE algorithms allow the receiver to approximate the impulse response of the ch...

In this study, we have specified an empirical framework to investigate bank capitalization/consolidation, management and performance. Based on the results of the theoretical and empirical analysis, bank loan, bank deposit, bank asset, bank liquidity, operating expenses, loan interest-deposit interest rates gap, inflation rate, interest rate, exchange rate, market share, unfavorable environment affects the performance of bank management. Capita...

Recently there is a serious polemics among philosophers of perception on the nature, character and the content of human percetual experience. While the conceptualist argues that every perception is conceptually derived when perceiving the world, the nonconceptualist claims that there is a nonconceptual basis for every perceptual experience. This book tries to reconcile the conceptualist and the nonconceptualist and argues that human conceptual...

In this tough job market, where three-fourths of job openings are not advertised, it appears that finding a way to make oneself "stand-out" is vital. In this easy-to-read field guide, Dr. Kim Hogelucht focuses on tried and true ways to make a college student or job seeker stand out from the crowd. With over twenty years of teaching experience at the college level, including over ten years of instructing business communication and directing int...

This book is about the meaning of our lives. The meaning of life is an existential theme to which the great ancient philosophers like Epicurus, Aristippus, Socrates, Plato and, especially Aristotle, gave much attention. In this book the author attempts an exposition of, and deliberates on, Aristotle's understanding of happiness, success in life, human flourishing or happiness, as the case may be, since there are different translations of the G...

The study explored the politics of mobility for Palestinian-Canadians, an understudied population in terms of transnational practices and issues of identity and hybridity. It also explored issues of citizenship and belonging using extensive interview data with Palestinian-Canadians in the GTA. Throughout the thesis the highly politicized aspect of mobility/immobility, national identity, and national autonomy in the Palestinian case was present...

Health economics provides the tools necessary to demonstrate value for money. These tools are typically used by healthcare providers to drive demand side decisions i.e. to select or reject treatment for reimbursement. However, these same tools can be used by healthcare technology manufacturers and investors, to inform supply side decisions i.e. to determine whether expected returns will outweigh expected costs. In a finite resource healthcare ...
