Mobil Computing: Implementing Pervasive Information and
Communication Technologies is designed to address some of the
business and technical challenges of pervasive computing that
encompass current and emerging technology standards,
infrastructures and architectures, and innovative and high impact
applications of mobile technologies in virtual enterprises. The
various articles examine a host of issues including: the challenges
and current solutions in mobile connectivity and coordination;
management infrastructures; innovative architectures for fourth
generation wireless and Ad-hoc networks; error-free frequency
assignments for wireless communication; cost-effective wavelength
assignments in optical communication networks; data and transaction
modeling in a mobile environment, and bandwidth issues and data
routing in mobile Ad-hoc networks.
Business modelling is a vast arena of research and practice, which
is gaining increasing important in the rapid development of
e-commerce, globalization, and in particular, the movement toward
global e-business. The ability to utilize advanced computing
technology to model, analyse and simulate various aspects of
ever-changing businesses has made a significant impact on the way
businesses are designed and run these days. With the current global
e-business and e-commerce initiatives, it has become important that
all businesses carefully validate their business objectives,
requirements, and strategies through a careful process of formal
business modelling. It is important for effective enterprise
decision making to have clear, concise business models that allow
the extraction of critical value from business processes and
specify the rules to be globally enforced. Particularly in
e-business specifications, the need to be unambiguous, accurate,
and complete becomes even greater, because there may be no human
mediator or agent to rely on in complex or unforeseen situations.
Business Modelling: Multidisciplinary Approaches - Economics,
Operational, and Information Systems Perspectives, arranged in
three parts, brings scholarly perspectives from various disciplines
to bear on some of the critical aspects of business modeling. The
first part (chapters 1-8) focuses on business modelling
fundamentals and starts with a series of economics and operations
research perspectives. The second part (chapters 9-19) concentrates
on modelling in electronic businesses and focuses on Management
Information Systems and Decision Support Systems. The third part
(chapters 20-22) centers on multidisciplinary business modelling
progress, in particular on the seminal work of Professor Andrew B.
Whinston.

This textbook, which is the first volume in the series Microbial
Zoonoses, provides a comprehensive overview of the diagnosis,
treatment and control of zoonotic parasitic diseases. The book is
divided into two sections; the first section discusses the
classification of parasitic zoonoses and includes general
information on the diagnosis, treatment, epidemiology, prevention,
and control of parasitic zoonoses. It also describes the biological
features of these organisms, host-parasite interactions, and the
disease spectrum, as well as the importance of public health
control measures, such as surveillance, and prophylactic measures
in controlling these diseases.The second section explores the
important zoonotic diseases caused by ectoparasites, protozoan and
helminths parasites. It also reviews the life cycle, pathogenesis,
pathology, immunology and clinical manifestations, modern
diagnostic methods, treatment regimen, prevention, control, and
epidemiology of these parasites.Cutting across the disciplines,
this book serves as a guide to postgraduate students, faculty
members, public health experts, and medical administrators who are
interested in the management of these parasitic zoonotic
infections.
