Cyber Security and Computer Science
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Conference on Cyber Security and Computer Science, ICONCS 2020, held in Dhaka, Bangladesh, in February 2020. The 58 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 133 submissions. The papers detail new ideas, inventions, and application experiences to cyber security systems. They are organized in topical sections on optimization problems; image steganography and risk analysis on web applications; machine learning in disease diagnosis and monitoring; computer vision and image processing in health care; text and speech processing; machine learning in health care; blockchain applications; computer vision and image processing in health care; malware analysis; computer vision; future technology applications; computer networks; machine learning on imbalanced data; computer security; Bangla language processing.
Advances in Health and Disease
This edited volume includes seven chapters, each of which details a recent scientific advancement in health and disease. Chapter One describes polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and elaborates various treatment, therapeutic, and management strategies for PCOS which may help in relieving its economic and social burden. Chapter Two addresses the ethical problems of the use of human fetal cell cultures in the manufacture of vaccines as well as other ethical dilemmas associated with vaccines. Chapter Three reviews fundamental aspects of imaging in the diagnosis of pneumomediastinum, including the normal mediastinal anatomy and relevant variants in plain radiography and computed tomography. Chapter...

Dealing with Terrorism
Emphasizing a positive approach to dealing with terrorism (the carrot), this book provides a critique of deterrence policy (the stick) which can be ineffective and even counterproductive, and proposes three alternative and effective anti-terrorist policies: Decentralization reduces vulnerability to terrorist attacks. A system with many different centers is more stable due to its diversity, enabling one part to substitute for another. Positive incentives can be offered to actual and prospective terrorists not to engage in violent acts. Incentives include: reintegrating terrorists into society, welcoming repentents and offering them valued opportunities. Diverting attention by naming several terrorist groups potentially responsible for a particular terrorist act. The government thus supplies more information than the terrorist responsible would wish.
The Economics of Terrorism
Brutality is the defining characteristic of terrorism. It is despairing to learn that this brutality is the outcome of purposeful, rational, human behaviour. In this purposefulness, however, there lies the key to the interpretation, explanation and understanding of terrorist behaviour. Ultimately, it is in this purposefulness that we shall also find the key to overcoming terrorism. Economic analysis highlights this purposefulness, this rationality, and in doing so provides a different perspective from which to approach the threat of terrorism and the task of pre-empting and pursuing its perpetrators. This book develops this economic perspective within a series of important contexts, each characterised by particular types of terrorist behaviour, choices and strategies. The Economics of Terrorism brings new insights on how to deal with such challenges as the terrorist group¿s choice of attack method and target location, terrorist financing and ¿copycat¿ behaviour.
Advances in Modelling, Animation and Rendering
"Advances in computer technology and developments such as the Internet provide a constant momentum to design new techniques and algorithms to support computer graphics. Modelling, animation and rendering remain principal topics in the filed of computer graphics and continue to attract researchers around the world." This volume contains the papers presented at Computer Graphics International 2002, in July, at the University of Bradford, UK. These papers represent original research in computer graphics from around the world and cover areas such as: - Real-time computer animation - Image based rendering - Non photo-realistic rendering - Virtual reality - Avatars - Geometric and solid modelling - Computational geometry - Physically based modelling - Graphics hardware architecture - Data visualisation - Data compression The focus is on the commercial application and industrial use of computer graphics and digital media systems.

Animals in Traditional Folk Medicine
People have relied on medicinal products derived from natural sources for millennia, and animals have long been an important part of that repertoire; nearly all cultures, from ancient times to the present, have used animals as a source of medicine. Ingredients derived from wild animals are not only widely used in traditional remedies, but are also increasingly valued as raw materials in the preparation of modern medicines. Regrettably, the unsustainable use of plants and animals in traditional medicine is recognized as a threat to wildlife conservation, as a result of which discussions concerning the links between traditional medicine and biodiversity are becoming increasingly imperative, particularly in view of the fact that folk medicine is the primary source of health care for 80% of the world’s population. This book discusses the role of animals in traditional folk medicine and its meaning for wildlife conservation. We hope to further stimulate further discussions about the use of biodiversity and its implications for wildlife conservation strategies.
