Low-power embedded processors are used in a wide variety of applications including cars, phones, digital cameras, printers, and other such devices. These are the key to the realization of portable electronic devices, in which power consumption is an important factor. Low-power consumption helps to reduce heat dissipation, lengthen battery life, and increase device reliability. In this book we will implement ARM embedded processor that will sup...

Cocoa Production in the Study area was said to be one of the foreign earnings to the federal government of Nigeria prior to the discovery of oil in the late 1950s that led to the undue neglect of the vital crop. But efforts are being made recently to encourage the local producers of the vital crop towards increased cocoa production.

This weed is known to be infected by various micro organisms such as the rust pathogen that may be used as a component of integrated weed management. In Ethiopia epidemiology of this pathogen is not well studied. Field surveys were conducted in 2008 and 2009 cropping seasons in eastern Ethiopia to study the epidemiology o...

Quite frequently these days' people talk of climate and/or climatic hazards and their impacts on living things in general and human being in particular. People talk about hurricanes, flooding, draughtiness, thunderstorm, hail storm etc., Understanding of these conditions and their impacts need a vast and comprehensive knowledge on climatology and biogeography. This book introduces to readers the basic conditions and processes which shape and i...

Students are important in any education system. They are the basic component for any school to be registered by the Ministry of Education. However the retention of these students within the education system is a great challenge. Male students face a lot of challenges within the school and outside the school such as lack of school fees, examination pass marks and discrimination at home and in school, which lead to drop out from school. The stud...

The book applies the theories of Structuration and reflexivity to the Internet in Amman, Jordan, to argue how the Internet can challenge authority as embedded in kinship social formations. In the first place, the Internet can be an empowering agent by challenging authority, at the same time, kinship's social and moral codes can structure the reflexivity, Structuration, and agency that users derive from the Internet. This book argues that there...

This study investigates the reported language use of one bilingual Semai community, a linguistic minority in Peninsular Malaysia. The Semai is the largest indigenous group in the peninsular and the language, Semai, is generally an oral language. Semai bilingual speakers are faced with choices in language behavior that will determine whether or not the Semai language will be maintained. Given the fact that the future of the Semai language depen...

Mate choice copying is the most studied type of nonindependent mate choice, i.e. female choice that is influenced by the choices of other females. In copying, the probability of a male being chosen increases if he has previously been chosen by other females and decreases if he has been rejected. This work critically reviews the literature and concludes that from an evolutionary perspective copying is ill-suited to relatively monogamous species...

Around the entire world, production of Mozzarella cheese has been gaining market share with expecting to grow more due in part to increasing market for ready to eat food stuffs especially Pizza. Regarding that consumers have been showing more concern with the nutritional aspects of the foods they eat than ever before. This book represents a study about the conventional mozzarella cheese and converting it to functional foods to increase its nut...

This study seeks to give a cross-cultural presentation of the church's role in supporting people who are bereaved. It takes place within a specific church context in Norway and Kenya respectively. The study examines cultural variations in grieving, main sources of support, the role of the church in supporting the bereaved, and finally the diaconal justification of this support given by the church.

Der Normaldruckhydrozephalus des Erwachsenen mit seiner Trias Gangstörung, Inkontinenz und Demenz ist eine der wenigen heutzutage therapierbaren Demenzformen. Bei der Therapie des Hydrozephalus stößt die Medizin immer wieder an ihre Grenzen, da sie aufgrund ihrer Komplexität oft mit fatalen Komplikationen einhergeht. Diese Tatsache hat die stetige Neuentwicklung optimierter Abflussventile für die Hydro- zephalustherapie zur Konsequenz. Das pro...

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden das positiv geladene polyvalente Polymer und eine Reihe neuartiger multivalenter kationischer Lipopolyamine hergestellt, anschließend wurden diese in wässrigen Lösungen mit verschiedenen Fremdsalzkonzentrationen mittels statischer und dynamischer Lichtstreuung charakterisiert und als Modell-Systeme für die Untersuchung des Komplexierungsverhaltens entgegengesetzt geladener Polyelektrolyte verwendet. Im ersten ...

Au début, les systèmes de réfrigération solaire ont été principalement utilisés comme un moyen complémentaire pour faire prolonger la chaîne de production du froid aux zones rurales pour la conservation des médicaments (conservation des vaccins). Mais ces dernières années, plusieurs travaux ont été réalisés pour mieux comprendre et maîtriser cette nouvelle technique. Cet ouvrage entre dans le même cadre , nous avons modélisé le réfrigérateur s...

Wissenschaft und Forschung beschäftigen sich fast ausschließlich mit der Erfolgsfaktorenforschung von Großunternehmen, während kleine und mittlere Unternehmen überwiegend im Hintergrund agieren. Dessen ungeachtet gibt es in Deutschland jedoch zahlreiche mittelständische Weltmarktführer, die sogenannten "Hidden Champions" ("heimliche Gewinner"), die, wie der Name bereits andeutet, kaum bekannt sind, aber mit Spitzenleistungen wesentlich zum Erf...

Information quality (IQ) theories and frameworks have been increasingly applied to assess, improve and monitor the quality of information products. An important example is the energy domain. Numerous agencies, organizations, institutions, and companies create, collect, and distribute information to help meet the needs of the energy industry. But what are the qualities of their information products? What can be done to address quality issues so...

The well known performances of steel structures in high seismic risk regions are ensured by the attainment of an overall collapse mechanism, that is guaranteed by the ductility and energy dissipation capacities of steel members. In steel MRFs, the key parameters to take under control in order to ensure an overall ductile behaviour are the flexural overstrength and the rotation capacity. With the aim to quantify and predict the flexural capacit...

The study of environmental studies requires students to have basic skills of climate. This book is about impact of climate variability on community livelihoods. It investigates on the impact of climate and coping strategy in two agro ecological zone, zone 2 and 4. It bases its study on community livelihoods in Nyeri County, Kenya who are generally farmers.
