Death Perspectives from the Philosophy of Biology

Death Perspectives from the Philosophy of Biology
Death: Perspectives from the Philosophy of Biology
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031144163 | 552 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 11 MB
This book addresses several key issues in the biological study of death with the intent of capturing their genealogy, the assumptions and presuppositions they make, and the way that they open specific new research avenues. The book is divided into two sections: the first considers physiology and the second evolutionary biology. Huneman explains that biologists in the late 1950s put forth a research framework that evolutionarily accounts for death in terms of either an effect of the weakness of natural selection or a by-product of natural selection for early reproduction. He illustrates how the biology of death is a central field and that studying it provides insight into the way that the epistemic structure of this knowledge has been constituted, persists until now, and may conflict with some traditional philosophical ideas.

Dangerous Women Warriors, Grannies, and Geishas of the Ming
Dangerous Women: Warriors, Grannies, and Geishas of the Ming By Victoria B. Cass
1999 | 184 Pages | ISBN: 0847693953 | PDF | 7 MB
Grannies, geishas, warriors, mystics, recluses, and predators_these are the dangerous women of traditional China. Through her exploration of the myth and history of the Ming, Victoria B. Cass brings their world brilliantly to life. In a culture that is resoundingly patriarchal, these women are a vivid counterpoint. Violating state-sponsored orthodoxies, the granny mocks and mimics, the geisha charms with her intellect, the warrior rules in icy superiority. Using new and freshly interpreted sources, the author leads us confidently into this surprising world, bolstering her erudite and engaging text with stunning color and black and white art of the period.

DERIVATIVES AND THEIR APPLICATIONS. 400 EXERCISES RESOLVED AND PROPOSED
DERIVATIVES AND THEIR APPLICATIONS. 400 EXERCISES RESOLVED AND PROPOSED by Baldomero Rodríguez Corella
English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BL87JRLM | 1078 pages | EPUB | 57 Mb
This work was conceived with the aim of supporting the learning process of those students who are taking their first steps in the area of calculus. The development of the solved exercises present a series of novel characteristics that facilitate the understanding of the student, among some of them are: 1. The incorporation of a column in the right margin of the resolution of the exercises where the mathematical operation used is briefly explained in each step; 2. Some exercises were solved by two different procedures to show the reader the variety of alternatives they can use to address a derivative problem; 3. The steps required for the resolution of an exercise was carried out gradually trying to avoid simplifications and breaking down the derivative operations so that after performing them they are regrouped obtaining the final answer. All these characteristics in the design and development of the text make it an ideal tool to achieve independent learning by the student or cooperatively with their fellow students.

Content Distribution for Mobile Internet A Cloud-based Approach (2nd Edition)

Content Distribution for Mobile Internet A Cloud-based Approach (2nd Edition)
Content Distribution for Mobile Internet: A Cloud-based Approach (2nd Edition)
English | 2023 | ISBN: 9811969817 | 428 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 27 MB
Content distribution, i.e., distributing digital content from one node to another node or multiple nodes, is the most fundamental function of the Internet. Since Amazon's launch of EC2 in 2006 and Apple's release of the iPhone in 2007, Internet content distribution has shown a strong trend toward polarization. On the one hand, considerable investments have been made in creating heavyweight, integrated data centers ("heavy-cloud") all over the world, in order to achieve economies of scale and high flexibility/efficiency of content distribution. On the other hand, end-user devices ("light-end") have become increasingly lightweight, mobile and heterogeneous, creating new demands concerning traffic usage, energy consumption, bandwidth, latency, reliability, and/or the security of content distribution. Based on comprehensive real-world measurements at scale, we observe that existing content distribution techniques often perform poorly under the abovementioned new circumstances.
