This book provides a collection of papers from the Ninth Workshop
on Computing: Theory and Practice, WCTP 2019 devoted to theoretical
and practical approaches to computation, which was organized by
four top universities in Japan and the Philippines: Tokyo Institute
of Technology, Osaka University, the University of the Philippines
Diliman, and De La Salle University. The proceedings provide a
broad overview of recent research trends in computer science
research in Asia, particularly in these two countries. The papers
included in the proceedings focus on both theoretical and practical
aspects of computations, such as programming language theory,
modeling of software systems, applications of machine learning,
empathic computing, and various applications of information
technology.
This volume contains the papers presented at the 8th Workshop on
Computing: Theory and Practice, WCTP 2018 and is devoted to
theoretical and practical approaches to computation. The conference
was organized by four top universities in Japan and the
Philippines: the Tokyo Institute of Technology, Osaka University,
the University of the Philippines Diliman, and De La Salle
University. The proceedings provide a broad view of the recent
developments in computer science research in Asia, with an emphasis
on Japan and the Philippines. The papers focus on both theoretical
and practical aspects of computations, such as programming language
theory, modeling of software systems, empathic computing, and
various applications of information technology. The book will be of
interest to academic and industrial researchers interested in
recent developments in computer science research.
Discover How to Apply DES to Problems Encountered in HTA Discrete
event simulation (DES) has traditionally been used in the
engineering and operations research fields. The use of DES to
inform decisions about health technologies is still in its infancy.
Written by specialists at the forefront of this area, Discrete
Event Simulation for Health Technology Assessment is the first book
to make all the central concepts of DES relevant for health
technology assessment (HTA). Accessible to beginners, the book
requires no prerequisites and describes the concepts with as little
jargon as possible. The book first covers the essential concepts
and their implementation. It next provides a fully worked out
example using both a widely available spreadsheet program
(Microsoft Excel) and a popular specialized simulation package
(Arena). It then presents approaches to analyze the simulations,
including the treatment of uncertainty; tackles the development of
the required equations; explains the techniques to verify that the
models are as efficient as possible; and explores the indispensable
topic of validation. The book also covers a variety of
non-essential yet handy topics, such as the animation of a
simulation and extensions of DES, and incorporates a real case
study involving screening strategies for breast cancer
surveillance. This book guides you in leveraging DES in your
assessments of health technologies. After reading the chapters in
sequence, you will be able to construct a realistic model designed
to help in the assessment of a new health technology.

This book comprises the refereed proceedings of the Workshop on
Computation: Theory and Practice (WCTP)-2012, held in Manila, The
Philippines, in September 2012. The workshop was organized by the
Tokyo Institute of Technology, the Institute of Scientific and
Industrial Research-Osaka University, the University of the
Philippines Diliman, and De La Salle University-Manila and was
devoted to theoretical and practical approaches to computation. The
22 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully
reviewed. They deal with biologically inspired computational
modeling, programming language theory, advanced studies in
networking, and empathic computing.
Computation should be a good blend of theory and practice, and
researchers in the field should create algorithms to address real
world problems, putting equal weight on analysis and
implementation. Experimentation and simulation can be viewed as
yielding to refined theories or improved applications. The Workshop
on Computation: Theory and Practice (WCTP)-2011 was the first
workshop organized jointly by the Tokyo Institute of Technology,
the Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research-Osaka
University, the University of the Philippines Diliman, and De La
Salle University-Manila devoted to theoretical and practical
approaches to computation. The aim of the workshop was to present
the latest developments by theoreticians and practitioners in
academe and industry working to address computational problems that
can directly impact the way we live in society. This book comprises
the refereed proceedings of WCTP-2011, held in Quezon City, the
Philippines, in September 2011. The 16 carefully reviewed and
revised full papers presented here deal with biologically inspired
computational modeling, programming language theory, advanced
studies in networking, and empathic computing..
This book summarizes the research findings presented at the 2nd
International Conference on Novel & Intelligent Digital Systems
(NiDS 2022). NiDS 2022 was implemented virtually due to COVID-19
restrictions, on September 29-30, 2022, under the auspices of the
Institute of Intelligent Systems. NiDS lays special emphasis on the
novelties of intelligent systems and on the interdisciplinary
research which enables, supports, and enhances artificial
intelligence (AI) in software development. It promotes high-quality
research, creating a forum for the exploration of challenges and
new advances in AI, and addresses experts, researchers, and
scholars in the fields of artificial and computational intelligence
in systems and in computer sciences in general, enabling them to
learn more about pertinent, strongly related, and mutually
complementary fields. The conference promotes an exchange of ideas,
reinforcing and expanding the network of researchers, academics,
and market representatives.

Thoroughly revised by well-respected educator and clinical
laboratory hematologist Dr. Gene Gulati and his colleague Dr. Jaime
Caro, the new third edition incorporates expanded treatment of
mimics and artifacts, images culled from multiple cases to show a
broad range of morphologic variation, and several new discussions.
It brilliantly illustrates an even broader spectrum of morphologic
variation in red and white blood cells. You’ll find more on every
page; everything that made the 1st and 2nd editions perennial
bestsellers and new additions that make it a high value addition to

self-assessment test comprising over 100 questions with answers
indexed to discussions in the text, users in their everyday
professional practice or learning process will find this 2nd
edition immensely informative and useful. Updates in this third
edition include: Expanded treatment of mimics and artifacts
Expanded treatment of infectious agents Reference tables of
comparative features in each chapter Current WHO classification of
tumors of hematopoietic & lymphoid tissues Expanded range of
