The book mainly describes the QTL mappings and efficacy analyses that are associated with wheat productivity, quality, physiology and various stress resistances and provides summaries of results from studies conducted both at home and abroad. It presents comparable data and analyses, helping readers to arrive at a more comprehensive understanding of the latest development in this field. The book provides a wealth of novel information, broad range of applications and in-depth findings on crop genetics and molecular breeding, making it valuable not only for plant breeders but also for academic faculties, senior researchers and advanced graduate students who are involved in plant breeding and genetics.

The current study argues that different cultures can coexist better today if we focus not only on what separates them but also on what connects them. To do so, the author discusses how both Aristotle and Confucius see rhetoric as a mode of thinking that is indispensable to the human understanding of the truths of things or dao-the-way, or, how both see the human understanding of the truths of things or dao-the-way as necessarily communal, open-ended, and discursive. Based on this similarity, the author aims to develop a more nuanced understanding of differences to help foster better cross-cultural communication. In making the argument, she critically examines two stereotyped views: that Aristotle’s concept of essence or truth is too static to be relevant to the rhetorical focus on the realm of human affairs and that Confucius’ concept of dao-the-way is too decentered to be compatible with the inferential/discursive thinking. In addition, the author relies primarily on the interpretations of the Analects by two 20th-century Chinese Confucians to supplement the overreliance on renderings of the Analects in recent comparative rhetorical scholarship. The study shows that we need an in-depth understanding of both the other and the self to comprehend the relation between the two.
Integrated Smart Micro-Systems Towards Personalized Healthcare Presents a thorough summary of recent advances in microelectronic systems and their applications for personalized healthcare Integrated Smart Micro-Systems Towards Personalized Healthcare provides up-to-date coverage of developments in smart microelectronics and their applications in health-related areas such as sports safety, remote diagnosis, and closed-loop health management. Using a comprehensive approach to the rapidly growing field, this one-stop resource examines different methods, designs, materials, and applications of systems such as multi-modal sensing biomedical platforms and non-invasive health monitoring sensors. The book’s five parts detail the core units of micro-systems, self-charging power units, self-driven monitor patches, self-powered sensing platforms, and integrated health monitoring systems. Succinct chapters address topics including multi-functional material optimization, multi-dimensional electrode preparation, multi-scene application display, and the use of multi-modal signal sensing to monitor physical and chemical indicators during exercise. Throughout the text, the authors offer key insights on device performance improvement, reliable fabrication processing, and compatible integration designs. Provides an overview self-powered, wearable micro-systems with emphasis on personalized healthcare Covers the working mechanisms and structural design of different energy-harvesting units, energy storage units, and functional units Introduces an integrated self-charging power unit consisting of triboelectric nanogenerators with supercapacitor Describes a general solution-evaporation method for developing porous CNT-PDMS conductive elastomers Examines a fully-integrated self-powered sweat sensing platform built on a wearable freestanding-mode triboelectric nanogenerator Integrated Smart Micro-Systems Towards Personalized Healthcare is an essential text for researchers, electronic engineers, entrepreneurs, and industry professionals working in material science, electronics, mechanical engineering, bioengineering, and sensor development.
This book provides a comprehensive investigation on new technologies for future vehicular networks. The authors propose different schemes to efficiently manage the multi-dimensional resources for supporting diversified applications. The authors answer the questions of why connected and automated vehicle technology should be considered; how the multi-access edge computing (MEC) and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technologies can be helpful to vehicular networks; how to efficiently manage the multi-dimensional resources to support different vehicular applications with guaranteed quality-of-service (QoS) requirements; and how to adopt optimization and AI technologies to achieve resource management in vehicular networks. The book is pertinent to researchers, professionals, academics and students in vehicular technologies.
