Adolescence is a journey to adulthood. This book seeks to examine the ways in which young people navigate through this period of their lives, and the consequences their efforts have on their well-being and problem behaviours. In twelve chapters, European researchers will conceptualize, present data and discuss the followinges: 1) the explorations and commitments adolescents construct as tools with which to direct their lives across the diversity of pathways to adulthood 2) the kinds of identities and self-concepts they develop during this process 3) the role of significant others, such as pa

In Interconnect-centric Design for Advanced SoC and NoC, we have tried to create a comprehensive understanding about on-chip interconnect characteristics, design methodologies, layered views on different abstraction levels and finally about applying the interconnect-centric design in system-on-chip design. Traditionally, on-chip communication design has been done using rather ad-hoc and informal approaches that fail to meet some of the challenges posed by next-generation SOC designs, such as performance and throughput, power and energy, reliability, predictability, synchronization, and manage

This practical resource examines the research, theory, and practice associated with stretching therapy. Anatomical illustrations and clear descriptions make it easy to learn which muscles are affected by specific treatment techniques. Full-color photographs show correct positioning of the patient and the therapist, with explanations of each movement on the same page or two-page spread.Comprehensive information on stretching provides essential knowledge for sports therapy or other manual therapy practice.Easy-to-access format presents each topic on a single page or page spread.Full-color photog

This modern approach to the subject is clearly and logically structured, and gives readers an understanding of the essence of Fourier transforms and their applications. All important aspects are included with respect to their use with optical spectroscopic data. Based on popular lectures, the authors provide the mathematical fundamentals and numerical applications which are essential in practical use. The main part of the book is dedicated to applications of FT in signal processing and spectroscopy, with IR and NIR, NMR and mass spectrometry dealt with both from a theoretical and practical

The papers in this volume were presented at SWAT 92, the Third Scandinavian Workshop on Algorithm Theory. The workshop, which continues the tradition ofSWAT 88, SWAT 90, and the Workshop on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 89, WADS 91), is intended as an international forum for researchers in the area of design and analysis of algorithms. The volume contains invited papers by L.G. Valiant (Direct bulk-synchronous parallel algorithms), A.A. Razborov (On small depth threshold circuits), G. Gonnet (Efficient two-dimensional searching), and E. Welzl (New results on linear pr

Focusing on the Precambrian in the central part of the Fennoscandian Shield, the book combines the results from modern geological and geophysical research into a detailed petrologic, lithologic, and structural synthesis and interpretation of the Archean and Proterozoic of Finland. It will be of value to anyone interested in the evolution of the shield in particular and in Precambrian geology in general.
