This book aims to introduce the principle and design of various
foundations, covering shallow foundations, mat foundations, earth
retaining structures, excavations, pile foundations, and slope
stability. Since the analysis and design of a foundation are based
on the soil properties under short-term (undrained) or long-term
(drained) conditions, the assessment of soil properties from the
geotechnical site investigation and the concept of drained or
undrained soil properties are discussed in the first two chapters.
Foundation elements transfer various load combinations from the
superstructure to the underlying soils or rocks. The load transfer
mechanisms, vertical stress or earth pressure distributions, and
failure modes of each foundation type are clearly explained in this
book. After understanding the soil responses subjected to the
loadings from the foundation, the design methods, required factors
of safety, and improvement measures for each foundation type are
elaborated. This book presents both theoretical explication and
practical applications for readers to easily comprehend the
theoretical background, design methods, and practical applications
and considerations. Each chapter provides relevant exercise
examples and a problem set for self-practice. The analysis methods
introduced in the book can be applied in actual analysis and design
as they contain the most up-to-date knowledge of foundation design.
This book is suitable for teachers and students to use in
foundation engineering courses and engineers who are engaged in
foundation design to create a technically sound,
construction-feasible, and economical design of the foundation
system.

The science and technology related to semiconductors have received
significant attention for applications in various fields including
microelectronics, nanophotonics, and biotechnologies. Understanding
of semiconductors has advanced to such a level that we are now able
to design novel system complexes before we go for the
proof-of-principle experimental demonstration. This book explains
the experimental setups for optical spectral analysis of
semiconductors and describes the experimental methods and the basic
quantum mechanical principles underlying the fast-developing
nanotechnology for semiconductors. Further, it uses numerous case
studies with detailed theoretical discussions and calculations to
demonstrate the data analysis. Covering structures ranging from
bulk to the nanoscale, it examines applications in the
semiconductor industry and biomedicine. Starting from the most
basic physics of geometric optics, wave optics, quantum mechanics,
solid-state physics, it provides a self-contained resource on the
subject for university undergraduates. The book can be further used
as a toolbox for researching and developing semiconductor
nanotechnology based on spectroscopy.

Discover the difference between making a robot move and making a
robot think. Using Mindstorms EV3 and LeJOS-an open source project
for Java Mindstorms projects-you'll learn how to create Artificial
Intelligence (AI) for your bot. Your robot will learn how to
problem solve, how to plan, and how to communicate. Along the way,
you'll learn about classical AI algorithms for teaching hardware
how to think; algorithms that you can then apply to your own
robotic inspirations. If you've ever wanted to learn about robotic
intelligence in a practical, playful way, Beginning Robotics
Programming in Java with LEGO Mindstorms is for you. What you'll
learn: Build your first LEGO EV3 robot step-by-step Install LeJOS
and its firmware on Lego EV3 Create and upload your first Java
program into Lego EV3 Work with Java programming for motors
Understand robotics behavior programming with sensors Review common
AI algorithms, such as DFS, BFS, and Dijkstra's Algorithm Who this
book is for: Students, teachers, and makers with basic Java
programming experience who want to learn how to apply Artificial
Intelligence to a practical robotic system.

In the past decade, the global efforts in the control of HIV
disease were basically concentrated on the search for
anti-retroviral agents. So far, anti-HIV therapies have been shown
to be disappointing because of rapid development of drug-resistant
mutant variants. Despite this drawback in the therapeutic fight
against HIV infection, antiviral research should be actively
pursued. However, failure of antiviral therapy indicates that other
avenues of research should be rapidly explored with the same
energy. In this setting, striking advances have been recently made
in the dissection and understanding of the viro-immunological
processes governing the progressive destruction of lymphoid organs
associated with AIDS develop ment, and HIV-induced activation and
apoptosis have been identified as key phenomena of the immune
system destruction. This book assembles the most recent advances on
basic and clinical aspects ofT-cell activationiapoptosis in HIV
infection and their implications for immunotherapy. These data were
presented at an international symposium held on July 11-12, 1994,
in Paris. The book is partitioned into 21 chapters covering four
comprehensive fields: 1) T-celllmacrophage activation and HIV
infection; 2) Apoptosis and viropathogenesis of HI V disease; 3)
Apop tosis and immunopathogenesis ofHIV disease; 4) Mediators
ofT-cell activationiapoptosis and therapeutic applications. We hope
that this book will assist the readers in understanding recent
advances in the viro-immunopathogenesis of HI V disease as well as
the rationales for potential immune cell-targeted therapeutic
interventions.
Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention: Concepts and
Techniques provides detailed and concise information on different
types of attacks, theoretical foundation of attack detection
approaches, implementation, data collection, evaluation, and
intrusion response. Additionally, it provides an overview of some
of the commercially/publicly available intrusion detection and
response systems. On the topic of intrusion detection system it is
impossible to include everything there is to say on all subjects.
However, we have tried to cover the most important and common
ones.
Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention: Concepts and
Techniques is designed for researchers and practitioners in
industry. This book is suitable for advanced-level students in
computer science as a reference book as well.
