Free Download Vicent Beltrán-Palanques, "Current Trends in EMI and Multimodality in Higher Education "
English | ISBN: 1032071311 | 2024 | 266 pages | EPUB | 11 MB
Looking at both English Medium Instruction (EMI) and multimodality in higher education, this edited volume bridges the gap between the two contexts by offering various new insights into fundamentals in multilingual education, EMI discourse and current teaching practices in internationalised contexts. Current demands in communication, especially in higher-education contexts, require examining EMI from a multimodal perspective with the aim of giving explicit attention to modern discourse practices.

Biochemical Physics Research Trends


Free Download Sergei Dmitrievich Varfolomeev, "Biochemical Physics Research Trends"
English | ISBN: 1600214266 | 2009 | 85 pages | PDF | 2 MB
This book presents recent research in Chemical and Biochemical physics. Chemical physics addresses a large range of problems. An effective chemical physicist is a jack-of-all-trades, able to apply the principles and techniques of the field to everything from high-tech materials to biology. Just as the fields of chemistry and physics have expanded, so have chemical physics subject areas, which include polymers, materials, surfaces/interfaces, and biological macromolecules, along with the traditional small molecule and condensed phase systems. Biochemical Physics is a science that joins the three natural sciences biology, chemistry and physics into one comprehensive study. N.M. Emanuel pioneered this science over fifty years ago. This book presents papers, written by Emanuel’s students, that reveal recent developments in this interesting field.

In the past month, we saw a blizzard of new language models. It’s almost hard to consider this news, though Microsoft’s open (but maybe not open source) Phi-3 is certainly worth a look. We’ve also seen promising work on reducing the resources required to do inference. While this may lead to larger models, it should also lead to reduced power use for small and midsized models.

New Trends in Databases and Information Systems


Free Download New Trends in Databases and Information Systems By Dariusz Rafal Augustyn, Sebastian Zederowski (auth.), Mykola Pechenizkiy, Marek Wojciechowski (eds.)
2013 | 454 Pages | ISBN: 3642325173 | PDF | 11 MB
Database and information systems technologies have been rapidly evolving in several directions over the past years. New types and kinds of data, new types of applications and information systems to support them raise diverse challenges to be addressed. The so-called big data challenge, streaming data management and processing, social networks and other complex data analysis, including semantic reasoning into information systems supporting for instance trading, negotiations, and bidding mechanisms are just some of the emerging research topics. This volume contains papers contributed by six workshops: ADBIS Workshop on GPUs in Databases (GID 2012), Mining Complex and Stream Data (MCSD’12), International Workshop on Ontologies meet Advanced Information Systems (OAIS’2012), Second Workshop on Modeling Multi-commodity Trade: Data models and processing (MMT’12), 1st ADBIS Workshop on Social Data Processing (SDP’12), 1st ADBIS Workshop on Social and Algorithmic Issues in Business Support (SAIBS), and the Ph.D. Consortium associated with the ADBIS 2012 conference that report on the recent developments and an ongoing research in the aforementioned areas.

Electronic business today is not only business transactions supported in information and communication technologies; it is a new way of communicating and integrating with customers, suppliers, employees and other stakeholders. In this scenario, electronic business is now part of a wider economic context that is causing radical transformations in business and organizations including the entire value chain from customer service to supply chain management. One of the areas affected is marketing. Given that the new technologies have enabled firms to reach out to global customers and has provided them with the opportunity to customize their strategies and offerings in an unprecedented way, the dynamics of marketing must be surveyed in order to study the impact of new trends like mobile customer relationship management or mass customization on marketing function. This book provides an overview of the e-Business and Marketing areas by uniting various papers from these fields. "Electronic Business and Marketing" includes theory and practice on electronic business and marketing from an academic and professional viewpoint providing also a forum for the exchange of research ideas and industry practices in these knowledge areas among practitioners, researchers and students.

Current Issues and Trends in Special Education. Identification, Assessment and Instruction


Free Download Festus E. Obiakor, Jeffrey P. Bakken, Anthony F. Rotatori, "Current Issues and Trends in Special Education.: Identification, Assessment and Instruction"
English | 2010 | pages: 252 | ISBN: 1848556683 | PDF | 1,6 mb
This is the first of two themed volumes addressing the current issues and trends in Special Education. Volume 19 covers identification, assessment and instruction whilst volume 20 covers research, technology, and teacher preparation. The field of special education constantly changes as a result of legislation, new instructional formats and current research investigations. It can be difficult for general and special educators, school counselors and psychologists, administrators and practicing clinicians to keep up with these changes and be current in all areas relating to special education. The special education literature knowledge base should reflect these changes; however, there is no current resource that effectively and comprehensively does this. The purpose of "Current Issues and Trends in Special Education" is to fill this void, providing chapters written by active researchers and practitioners in their respective areas.
