La mondialisation a un impact sur les sociétés humaines et les environnements naturels d'une manière jusqu'ici inconnue. Elle a un impact sur l'épidémiologie des maladies infectieuses et sur la capacité à prévenir, contrôler et traiter efficacement ces maladies. Il en résulte des conséquences qui menacent la santé humaine et, en fin de compte, la survie. Elle peut modifier la portée et la prévalence de nombreuses infections. L'augmentation de la température de l'air ambiant, ainsi que les modifications des précipitations et de l'humidité, peuvent affecter la biologie et...

A key problem facing the construction industry is that all work is done by transient project teams, and in the past there has been no structured approach to learning from projects once they are completed. Now, though, the industry is adapting concepts of knowledge management to improve the situation.

This book brings together 13 contributors from research and industry to show how managing construction knowledge can bring real benefits to organisations and projects. It covers a wide range of issues, from basic definitions and fundamental concepts, to the role of information technology, and...

Fully up to date, this new edition covers all aspects of care for women developing disorders during pregnancy.

The World of Females is a book designed to address multiple issues, emanating from the methods of dressing, being implemented by many females in our society. The issues are noted to be affecting not only the females population, but also the males population in our wonderful system. Observation maintains that some females tend to dress in an indifferent fashion in order to attract the males, which is technically wrong, according to general statistics. This is because well dressed females attract more males according to the same study. This meant that females, particularly the ones dressing...

Construction researchers and industry practitioners have begun to explore the possibilities offered by mobile and pervasive computing in architecture, engineering and construction (AEC). It is expected that the construction industry will be keen to apply these technologies as they promise significant benefits in areas such as materials management, project management, distributed collaboration and information management, all leading to improvements in productivity.

This book offers a comprehensive reference volume to the use of mobile and pervasive computing in construction. Based on...

This book describes current advances and future directions in the theory and application of intelligent agents and multi-agent systems in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector. It is the product of an international effort involving a network of construction IT and computing researchers, investigating different aspects of agent theory and applications.

The contributed chapters cover different perspectives and application areas, and represent significant efforts to harness emerging technologies such as intelligent agents and multi-agent systems for improved...

Concurrent Engineering (CE) is a systematic approach to the integrated and concurrent design of products and related processes, including aspects as diverse as manufacture and support. It is only now being carefully applied to the construction sector and offers considerable potential for increasing efficiency and effectiveness. It enables developers to consider all elements of a building or structure's life cycle from the conception stage right through to disposal, and to include issues of quality, cost, schedule, and user requirements.

Drawing together papers that reflect...
