Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems, DAIS 2011, held in Reykjavik, Iceland, in June 2011 as one of the DisCoTec 2011 events. The 18 revised full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The papers presented at DAIS 2011 address key challenges of modern distributed services and applications, including pervasiveness and peer-to-peer environments, and tackle issues related to adaptation, interoperability, availability and performance, as well as dependability and security.
On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems, OTM 2010
The two-volume set of LNCS 6426/6427 constitutes the refereed proceedings of 3 confederated international conferences on CoopIS (Cooperative Information Systems), DOA (Distributed Objects and Applications) and ODBASE (Ontologies, DataBases and Applications of SEmantics). These conferences were held in October 2009 in Greece, in Hersonissos on the island of Crete. CoopIS is covering the applications of technologies in an enterprise context as workflow systems and knowledge management. DOA is covering the relevant infrastructure-enabling technologies and finally, OSBASe is covering WEB semantics, XML databases and ontologies. The 83 revised full papers presented together with 3 keynote talks w...
Hybrid Modeling in Process Industries
This title introduces the underlying theory and demonstrates practical applications in different process industries using hybrid modeling. It reviews hybrid modeling approach applicability in wide range of process industries, recommends how to increase hybrid model performance and throw Insights into cost efficient practices in modeling techniques Discusses advance process operation maximizing the benefits of available process knowledge and Includes real-life and practical case studies
Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 20th IFIP International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems, DAIS 2020, which was supposed to be held in Valletta, Malta, in June 2020, as part of the 15th International Federated Conference on Distributed Computing Techniques, DisCoTec 2020. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 10 full papers presented together with 1 short paper and 1 invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 17 submissions. The papers addressed challenges in multiple application areas, such as privacy and security, cloud and systems, fault-tolerance and reproducibility, machine learning for systems, and distributed algorithms.

Interest Groups and Political Representation in Portugal and Beyond
This book examines the characteristics and evolution of interest groups in Portugal. Drawing from a wide array of sources - including surveys, parliamentary activities, media coverage and interviews with MPs and lobbyists – it systematically assesses interest group politics. The book analyses the main features of group population, the strategies utilised by organised interests, their interactions with key decision-makers, and citizens’ opinions regarding their role in the political system. The original data provided in this book frames the Portuguese case in a broader European context, and will be extremely useful for international comparisons. It will appeal to scholars and students of European politics, interest groups, democratic theories, and public policy.

On Motion Planning Using Numerical Optimal Control
During the last decades, motion planning for autonomous systems has become an important area of research. The high interest is not the least due to the development of systems such as self-driving cars, unmanned aerial vehicles and robotic manipulators. In this thesis, the objective is not only to find feasible solutions to a motion planning problem, but solutions that also optimize some kind of performance measure. From a control perspective, the resulting problem is an instance of an optimal control problem. In this thesis, the focus is to further develop optimal control algorithms such that they be can used to obtain improved solutions to motion planning problems. This is achieved by combi...
Encyclopedia of Chinese History
China has become accessible to the west in the last twenty years in a way that was not possible in the previous thirty. The number of westerners travelling to China to study, for business or for tourism has increased dramatically and there has been a corresponding increase in interest in Chinese culture, society and economy and increasing coverage of contemporary China in the media. Our understanding of China’s history has also been evolving. The study of history in the People’s Republic of China during the Mao Zedong period was strictly regulated and primary sources were rarely available to westerners or even to most Chinese historians. Now that the Chinese archives are open to research...
