This book reports the latest findings on intelligent energy
management of Internet data centers in smart-grid environments. The
book gathers novel research ideas in Internet data center energy
management, especially scenarios with cyber-related
vulnerabilities, power outages and carbon emission constraints. The
book will be of interest to university researchers, R&D
engineers and graduate students in communication and networking
areas who wish to learn the core principles, methods, algorithms,
and applications of energy management of Internet data centers in
smart grids.
This monograph presents recursion theory from a generalized point
of view centered on the computational aspects of definability. A
major theme is the study of the structures of degrees arising from
two key notions of reducibility, the Turing degrees and the
hyperdegrees, using techniques and ideas from recursion theory,
hyperarithmetic theory, and descriptive set theory. The emphasis is
on the interplay between recursion theory and set theory, anchored
on the notion of definability. The monograph covers a number of
fundamental results in hyperarithmetic theory as well as some
recent results on the structure theory of Turing and hyperdegrees.
It also features a chapter on the applications of these
investigations to higher randomness.
The Asian Logic Conference (ALC) is a major international event in
mathematical logic. It features the latest scientific developments
in the fields of mathematical logic and its applications, logic in
computer science, and philosophical logic. The ALC series also aims
to promote mathematical logic in the Asia-Pacific region and to
bring logicians together both from within Asia and elsewhere for an
exchange of information and ideas. This combined proceedings volume
represents works presented or arising from the 14th and 15th ALCs.
This volume provides a forum which highlights new achievements and
overviews of recent developments of the thriving logic groups in
the Asia-Pacific region. It contains papers by leading logicians
and also some contributions in computer science logics and
philosophic logics.

For the past decade, the rapid development of the ergonomics
disciplines as well as the fast growing economy in the Asian region
have been attracting the attention of the international ergonomics
community. Although East Asia has been changing from a traditional
agriculture-oriented society into a modern industry-oriented
society and its economy covers a great deal of shared interests
across the continents, yet the ergonomics related knowledge and
practice are still in its infancy. Because of the geographic
proximity and a strong historical, cultural and technology
affinity, it is vitally important to maintain good communication
and cooperation among the individuals as well as among the
ergonomics organizations in the region. This symposium, EAEFS, has
provided supporting ergonomics organizations and interested
participants a forum to exchange ideas, build friendship, foster
greater understanding of and among these individuals and
organizations, and develop perspectives concerning ergonomics
issues in this region and beyond.
This volume contains the selected papers presented at the Second
East Asian Ergonomics Federation Symposium (EAEFS), held from
October 4 - 8, 2011 at the National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan.
The Second EAEFS, endorsed by the International Ergonomics
Association (IEA), aims to consolidate the established ties within
East Asia and to extend the cooperation among ergonomics
researchers, professionals, and practitioners in the region to
other regions in Asia and the world. Senior scholars and leaders
from Asian countries have shared their wisdom, experience,
insights, and visions on past, current and future ergonomics
efforts in Asia.
The papers contributing to this book address the latest research
and application in accordance with the theme of the symposium,
"Ergonomics in Asia: Development, Opportunities and Challenges,"
and cover the following areas: Virtual Environments & Design,
Aging & Work Ability, Usability & Interface, Biomechanics
& Anthropometry, and Occupational Safety & Health.

Numerous empirical studies have reported the negative consequences
of war on the physical and psychological well-being of children.
What do children understand about war? How does that understanding
help them make sense of the violent world of which they are part?
What do we, as educators, parents and family service providers,
need to know in order to prepare ourselves for talking to children
about war-related issues? This study describes and compares
Taiwanese American (TA) children's and Non-Taiwanese American (NTA)
children's perceptions of war. A qualitative research design was
adopted. In-depth interviews were conducted with 50 TA and NTA
children in the U.S. Data were collected from 2002 through March
2003 before the United States entered in to the war with Iraq.
Perception differences with regard to gender and age were explored.
Children's reported conversations with their parents about war also
were examined. Findings of this study can be useful for helping
educators, parents, teachers and other adults discuss war and peace
issues with children from different family/cultural backgrounds.
This book is the outcome of Liang Yu's research work as a Ph.D.
candidate supervised by Dr. Karl Frank in The University of Texas
at Austin from 2001 to 2006. Inspired by the collapse of the World
Trade Center Towers, the behavior of bolted connections during and
after a fire was studied by both experimental and analytical
methods. The results from large amount of high temperature tests on
A325 and A490 high strength bolts and bolted connections under and
post temperatures up to 1500 Fahrenheit are included. Finite
element analyses are conducted to evaluate the catenary effects of
steel beams at elevated temperatures and its loads on bolted
connections. Methodology of designing bolted connections at
elevated temperatures is put forward by interpolating the test and
analytical results. This book provides valuable information for the
design of bolted connections with better safety during and after a
fire.
