Allelopathy is an ecological phenomenon by which plants release
organic chemicals (allelochemicals) into the environment
influencing the growth and survival of other organisms. In this
book, leading scientists in the field synthesize latest
developments in allelopathy research with a special emphasis on its
application in sustainable agriculture. The following topics are
highlighted: Ecological implications, such as the role of
allelopathy during the invasion of alien plant species; regional
experiences with the application of allelopathy in agricultural
systems and pest management; the use of microscopy for modeling
allelopathy; allelopathy and abiotic stress tolerance; host
allelopathy and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi; allelopathic
interaction with plant nutrition; and the molecular mechanisms of
allelopathy. This book is an invaluable source of information for
scientists, teachers and advanced students in the fields of plant
physiology, agriculture, ecology, environmental sciences, and
molecular biology.
Revolutionary Worlds looks at the Indonesian revolution (1945-1949)
from a local and regional perspective. With seventeen
contributions, Indonesian and Dutch researchers bring to life the
revolutionary world from widely differing perspectives. The authors
explain how Indonesian, Chinese, Indian and Eurasian civilians,
fighters, farmers and officials experienced and shaped the often
volatile period between 1945 and 1950. The book focuses on
different ideas of independence, survival strategies, mobilization,
minorities, contestation of authority and the use of force against
the backdrop of Indonesian and Dutch authorities' efforts to gain
or maintain control. Bringing together two national
historiographical traditions which have long remained largely
separate, Revolutionary Worlds is the result of a collaboration
between the Indonesian research project Proklamasi Kemerdekaan,
Revolusi dan Perang di Indonesia ('Proclamation of Independence,
Revolution and War in Indonesia', Universitas Gadjah Mada,
Yogyakarta) and the Dutch research group of the Regional Studies
project, under the umbrella of the research programme Independence,
Decolonization, Violence and War in Indonesia, 1945-1950. The
authors of this book - Taufik Ahmad, Galuh Ambar Sasi, Maarten van
der Bent, Martijn Eickhoff, Farabi Fakih, Roel Frakking, Apriani
Harahap, Anne-Lot Hoek, Sarkawi B. Husain, Julianto Ibrahim, Gerry
van Klinken, Erniwati Nur, Mawardi Umar, Anne van der Veer, Abdul
Wahid, Tri Wahyuning M. Irsyam, and Muhammad Yuanda Zara - work
with various universities and research institutes in Indonesia and
the Netherlands.

Learn how to write a simple testing framework and extend it to
drive the design of your logging library Key Features Learn how to
solve various challenges when testing in C++ with the help of
effective solutions Develop a logging library with enhancements
Drive better code designs with effective tests Book
DescriptionModern, standard C++ is all that is needed to create a
small and practical testing framework that will improve the design
of any project. This allows you to think about how the code will be
used, which is the first step in designing intuitive interfaces.
TDD is a modern balanced software development approach that helps
to create maintainable applications, provide modularity in design,
and write minimal code that drastically reduces defects. With the
help of this book, you'll be able to continue adding value when
designs need to change by ensuring that the changes don't break
existing tests. In this book, developers working with test-driven
development (TDD) will be able to put their knowledge to work by
writing a simple testing framework and then using it to drive the
design of a logging library. The book will help you enhance your
software development skills with test cases. You'll understand how
to design and implement test cases. The chapters will also show you
how to utilize the TDD approach to be more productive in software
development than attempting to code in large unstructured steps. By
the end of this book, you'll have gained knowledge of TDD and
testing and also built a working logging library. What you will
learn Understand how to develop software using TDD Keep the code
for the system as error-free as possible Refactor and redesign code
confidently Communicate the requirements and behaviors of the code
with your team Understand the differences between unit tests and
integration tests Use TDD to create a minimal viable testing
framework Who this book is forThis book is for C++ developers
already familiar with and using C++ for daily tasks who want to
improve their skillset. You don't need to be an expert but you
should already have some knowledge of modern C++ and how to use
templates to get the most out of this book.
Water Resource Modeling and Computational Technologies, Seventh
Edition provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of the
applications that computational techniques have in various sectors
of water resource engineering. The book explores applications of
recent modeling and computational techniques in various sectors of
water resource engineering, including hydroinformatics, irrigation
engineering, climate change, hydrologic forecasting, floods,
droughts, image processing, GIS, water quality, aquifer mapping,
basin scale modeling, computational fluid dynamics, numerical
modeling of surges and groundwater flow, river engineering, optimal
reservoir operation, multipurpose projects, and water resource
management. As such, this is a must read for hydrologists, civil
engineers and water resource managers.
