In view of the incessant growth of data and knowledge and the continued diversifi- tion of information dissemination on a global scale, scalability has become a ma- stream research area in computer science and information systems. The ICST INFO- SCALE conference is one of the premier forums for presenting new and exciting research related to all aspects of scalability, including system architecture, resource management, data management, networking, and performance. As the fourth conf- ence in the series, INFOSCALE 2009 was held in Hong Kong on June 10 and 11, 2009. The articles presented in...

Angesichts gravierender gesellschaftlicher Herausforderungen, etwa vor dem Hintergrund der demographischen Veranderungen, des Klimawandels oder der Energiekrise, andern sich die Anspruche an den Raum. Es entstehen sich uberlagernde und konkurrierende Nutzungsanspruche. Hier kommt die Raumplanung ins Spiel. Sie versucht, die unterschiedlichen Nutzungsinteressen und Schutzguter zu koordinieren bzw. so weit wie moglich miteinander in Einklang zu bringen. Ihr zur Seite stehen die Fachplanungen, die zur Erfullung ihrer Aufgaben wiederum eigene Befugnisse haben und mit dem uberfachlichen...

Warum sind so viele Menschen eigentlich unglucklich und leiden an Burnout und Depressionen? Kann es sein, dass sie den falschen Zielen und Therapien hinterherlaufen, anstatt sich auf das Wesentliche zu konzentrieren, um zu einem zufriedenen und glucklichen Leben zu finden. Peter Muller zeigt in diesem Buch Moglichkeiten und Strategien auf, die sehr nutzlich sind um mit sich selbst ins Reine zu kommen und die langfristig zu einem ausgeglichenen Leben fuhren konnen. So konnen Sie Burnout und Depressionen vermeiden."

Interventional Oncology is a fast-growing new field, as well as an emerging specialty. Many minimally-invasive, imaging-guided procedures seem set to replace more traditional open surgical techniques of treating solid tumors in a variety of organs. The aim of this book is to describe new interventional radiological methods in a succinct and practical form. Diagnostic radiological considerations relevant to the selection and follow-up of patients are also covered. The book begins with an overview of the basic principles of current interventional techniques, including thermal ablation, high...

This book reviews nonparametric Bayesian methods and models that have proven useful in the context of data analysis. Rather than providing an encyclopedic review of probability models, the book's structure follows a data analysis perspective. As such, the chapters are organized by traditional data analysis problems. In selecting specific nonparametric models, simpler and more traditional models are favored over specialized ones.
The discussed methods are illustrated with a wealth of examples, including applications ranging from stylized examples to case studies from recent literature. The...

As chapters in this book demonstrate, BNP has important uses in clinical sciences and inference for issues like unknown partitions in genomics. Nonparametric Bayesian approaches (BNP) play an ever expanding role in biostatistical inference from use in proteomics to clinical trials. Many research problems involve an abundance of data and require flexible and complex probability models beyond the traditional parametric approaches. As this book's expert contributors show, BNP approaches can be the answer. Survival Analysis, in particular survival regression, has traditionally used BNP, but BNP's...
