The Hot-Blooded Insects - Bernd Heinrich - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

The Hot-Blooded Insects - Bernd Heinrich - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

"From one man's persistent and elegant probing of the temperature biology of bees, we have been led to a deeper understanding of the whole biology of many insect taxa, and of their interactions with ecological and environmental stresses: all who work at the interfaces of physiology, ecology and behaviour have cause to be grateful, and all should certainly read this book." (Trends in Ecology & Evolution) "An outstanding source of information, and can be read with profit and satisfaction by the professional biologist and interested amateur alike." (Nature)

Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems LII - - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

The LNCS journal Transactions on Large-Scale Data and Knowledge-Centered Systems focuses on data management, knowledge discovery, and knowledge processing, which are core and hot topics in computer science. Since the 1990s, the Internet has become the main driving force behind application development in all domains. An increase in the demand for resource sharing (e.g., computing resources, services, metadata, data sources) across different sites connected through networks has led to an evolution of data- and knowledge-management systems from centralized systems to decentralized systems enabling large-scale distributed applications providing high scalability. This, the 52nd issue of Transactions on Large-Scale Data and Knowledge-Centered Systems, contains 6 fully revised selected regular papers.

Cryptography and Cryptanalysis in Java - Stefania Loredana Nita - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

Cryptography and Cryptanalysis in Java - Stefania Loredana Nita - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

Here is your in-depth guide to cryptography and cryptanalysis in Java. This book includes challenging cryptographic solutions that are implemented in Java 21 and Jakarta EE 11. It provides a robust introduction to Java 21's new features and updates, a roadmap for Jakarta EE 11 security mechanisms, a unique presentation of the "hot points" (advantages and disadvantages) from the Java Cryptography Architecture (JCA), a new chapter on Quantum cryptography, and more. The book dives into the classical simple cryptosystems that form the basis of modern cryptography, with fully working solutions (encryption/decryption operations). Pseudo-random generators are discussed as well as real-life implementations. Hash functions are covered along with practical cryptanalysis methods and attacks, asymmetric and symmetric encryption systems, signature and identification schemes. The book wraps up with a presentation of lattice-based cryptography and the NTRU framework library. Modern encryption schemes for cloud and big data environments (homomorphic encryption and searchable encryption) also are included. After reading and using this book, you will be proficient with crypto algorithms and know how to apply them to problems you may encounter. New to This Edition: The modernized Second Edition is updated to reflect the latest language features in Java 21 and Jakarta 11, along with the introduction of a new chapter on Quantum Cryptography (Chapter 6). What You Will LearnDevelop programming skills for writing cryptography algorithms in JavaDive into security schemes and modules using JavaExplore “good” vs “bad” cryptography based on processing execution times and reliabilityPlay with pseudo-random generators, hash functions, etc. Leverage lattice-based cryptography methods, the NTRU framework library, and more Who This Book Is ForThose who want to learn and leverage cryptography and cryptanalysis using Java. Some prior Java and/or algorithm programming exposure is highly recommended.

Synergy between grids, P2P systems, and agent technologies is the key to data- and knowledge-centered systems in large-scale environments. This, the 20th issue of Transactions on Large-Scale Data- and Knowledge-Centered Systems, presents a representative and useful selection of articles covering a wide range of important topics in the domain of advanced techniques for big data management. Big data has become a popular term, used to describe the exponential growth and availability of data. The recent radical expansion and integration of computation, networking, digital devices, and data storage has provided a robust platform for the explosion in big data, as well as being the means by which big data are generated, processed, shared, and analyzed. In general, data are only useful if meaning and value can be extracted from them. Big data discovery enables data scientists and other analysts to uncover patterns and correlations through analysis of large volumes of data of diverse types. Insights gleaned from big data discovery can provide businesses with significant competitive advantages, leading to more successful marketing campaigns, decreased customer churn, and reduced loss from fraud. In practice, the growing demand for large-scale data processing and data analysis applications has spurred the development of novel solutions from both industry and academia.

From La Strada to The Hours - - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

From La Strada to The Hours - - Bog - Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG - Plusbog.dk

The book covers a wide range of cinematic femininities: It starts with Marilyn Monroe’s cool phrase "We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle", which self-confidently marked her profession - with a wink, because she did not say "to sparkle". The (self-) staging of women also ironically plays its being tailored to the male gaze. In this section we discuss movies like Some like it hot, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Cet obscur objet du désir and Le Mépris - with a notable chapter by Laura Mulvey. Moreover, some fifty films later, the book ends with a section on Self-Empowerment and Identity, featuring films like Thelma & Louise, The Hours, Blue Valentine and Carol. Are women in film really just those who are seen and displayed? Where are the ones who see and who point to something themselves? Where are the women in the audience, behind the camera? If, as feminist psychoanalytical film criticism rightly observes, the stars and starlets, especially in Hollywood mainstream cinema, are supposed to serve the male gaze as eye candy and self-assurance, what is the role of the women who do not fit into this scheme, the anti-heroes, the women who feel and act, those through whose eyes the world experiences a completely different way of being seen? Not only in arthouse cinema, but also in the mainstream, there is far more to the thousand facets of staged femininity than the simple formula of the male gaze. The book shows the most diverse stagings of femininity in great (and terrible) films, and explores (according to the approach of film psychoanalysis) how these staging affect the unconscious, or also the not-yet-conscious of viewers. Each of the eight sections deals with a thematic aspect of the staging of suffering or sovereign femininity in feature films. They follow a chronological structure to illustrate how the genre has evolved. Each section is held together by an editorial introduction.
