Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -By 2030, more people in the developing world will live in urban than rural areas; by 2050, two-thirds of its population is likely to be urban. The world's population as a whole is expected to grow by 2.5 billion from 2007 to 2050. This demographic transformation has profound implications for health. Botswana is no exception to the challenges of urbanization. It has experienced rapid urbanization since the 1980's. Gaborone, the capital city of Botswana is often described as Africa's fastest growing city because it is experiencing an increased influx of migrants from rural and neighbouring countries. Over half (54%) of Botswana's population currently lives in the urban settlements. Despite the fact that urbanization has benefited Botswana's economic and social development, it has also generated wide range of socio-economic challenges. This book presents the findings of the study on the social determinants of health conducted among the poor urban residents in Gaborone, Botswana. The book should be useful to policy makers in governments, International development partners, Non Governmental Organizations and scholars in the field of public and urban health.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -When compared to MTA cells, MTB-01 cells were susceptible to risedronateinduced apoptosis, had decreased ability to bind to risedronate-treated bone, and did not produce MMP-2 or MMP-9 proteases. MTA cells were less susceptible to risedronateinduced apoptosis and produced MMP-2. Additionally, adhesion of MTA cells to bone matrix was not diminished by risedronate treatment. Our results suggest that the nonresponsive nature of the MTA cell line may be due to MMP-2 production (possibly allowing ongoing destruction of risedronate-treated bone), continued adhesion to risedronate-treated bone matrix, and decreased susceptibility to risedronate-induced apoptosis. 128 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Multimedia application such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and Video Conferencing are the two demanding applications in the recent times. These applications are noise and delay sensitive due to their variable bit rate characteristic and require higher bandwidth. Therefore quality of service (QoS) has become essential consideration for supporting such applications. The Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) is a popular wireless broadband technology having strong provision for QoS support of multimedia applications. This publication investigates the performance of VoIP and Video Conferencing over WiMAX network. Parameters that indicate Quality of Service such as delay, jitter, packet loss and throughput are analysed construction different scenarios on the basis of different service flows and codecs defined in WiMAX system. OPNET Modeller 14.5 has been used to design and simulate VoIP and Video Conferencing scenarios for the WiMAX Network to analyze its performance capabilities over these real time multimedia applications. The result suggests that better QoS is achieved by using appropriate service flows designed for specific applications. 100 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In this book we have shown what others have done in regard to enhancing SCTP's retransmission time-out performance, and how their approaches are different from ours. We have also shown how the Adaptive RTO algorithm helps improve the SCTP's performance in contrast to the existing implementation. Significant amount of data were gathered in order to show that we have improved the transfer rate in SCTP by about 5%, in the scenario where the Adaptive RTO algorithm is implemented. We have been vigilant in making sure the Adaptive RTO algorithm does not unnecessarily clog network's bandwidth, and that the current implementation of RTO MIN can be safely replaced with the Adaptive RTO algorithm. Furthermore, we have done extensive testing of the Adaptive RTO algorithm in respect to multiple scenarios.We have also shown that the Adaptive RTO algorithm does not clog network's bandwidth under any conditions. This is an evolutionary research. This book does not solve all the problems but sets up additional studies and hypothesis. 56 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -To express oneself is a basic trait inherent in all individuals. Self-realization is the essential quality that enables self-expression. One who does not comprehend the reality and attempts to escape from it loses his identity and lives in a world of illusion. When awareness blossoms in the mind, it destroys illusion and leads to reality. Illusion and reality are two different levels of consciousness which can entangle or liberate an individual respectively. With rapid industrialization the occupational life of people has made them seek material possessions effacing the significance of human values. When one realizes the void in materialistic pleasures a feeling of alienation arises. What once gave joy becomes an illusion. When one does not discern reality and the importance of interpersonal relationships and quests for the sense of belonging to the modern world, he lands in self destructive illusion. This book analyses exclusively the conflict of illusion and reality in the characters of the two novels rather than attempting to pass a general observation. The analysis will interest readers who have a metaphysical approach to literature for intellectual satisfaction. 56 pp. Englisch.…
