Technical papers were organized in six sessions spanning the two days: 3D in Multimedia, Multimedia Architectures and Authoring, \ideo and Coding, Content Based Retrieval and Security, Interactive Media and Interactive TV.

Various aspects of the topic, such as definition and measurement of response, dimensions of treatment outcome, neuropsychological, neuropsychopharmacological and neurobiochemical predictors as well as the clinical application of neuroimaging methods and neurogenetics are treated by experts in the field.

Because of the complicated subject and the scarce available literature proper introductions in the subject are tiresome. Discussions and private contacts make it possible for participants to touch quickly the peripheries of the subject in question, and new research work will be stimulated which otherwise could not be expected.

The time is ripe, more than fifty years after the publication of the magnum opus by Perls, Hefferline & Goodman, to publish a book on the topic of cre ativity in Gestalt therapy.

The author has used for the same purpose methods ranging from physical anthropology to forensic medicine and especially a recent method of comparison of epigenetic traits, which proved to be very useful for the identification of family related skulls in connection with historical and other data.

Many different disciplines are analyzing the impact of music today. It contains contributions penned by leading scientists from around the world belonging to diverse music science disciplines and in particular covers psycho-physiological, neuro-developmental and cognitive aspects associated with the experience of music.

This book introduces the current concepts of molecular mechanisms in synaptic plasticity and provides a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge research technology used to investigate the molecular dynamics of the synapses.

This volume provides a comprehensive account of the physical and mechanical behaviour of polyurethanes (PUs) elastomers, films, and blends of variable crystallinity. Topics include the elasticity and inelasticity of PUs, in relation to their sensitivity to chemical and physical structure.

Deployable structures can vary their shape automatically from a compact, packaged configuration to an expanded, operational configuration. Three main themes are discussed in this book: concepts, working principles, and mechanics of deployable structures, both in engineering and biology;

This book introduces the current concepts of molecular mechanisms in synaptic plasticity and provides a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge research technology used to investigate the molecular dynamics of the synapses.

Recent research on high expressed emotion (HEE) in schizophrenia (e.g., early psychosis) and borderline disorder, patients' perspectives of HEE as well as other variables predictive for relapse in recent-onset schizophrenia are covered in this book.

The increasing proportion of demented elderly in populations, debates over patient's rights and autonomy, and the growing body of knowledge on dementia has inspired the European Dementia Consensus Network to regard competence assessment in dementia as an important topic of debate.

Written by an insider, this book covers the concept of evolved 3G networks of standardization. It draws from standardization meeting notes, company analyses and online discussion to detail relevant history, detours and alternatives that were not used.

Multiple System Atrophy

Molecular Computing explores whether molecular primitives can prove to be real alternatives to contemporary semiconductor means. The text discusses molecular primitives and circuitry for information processing devices.

The goal of this book is to provide new insights into brain organization. It makes a link between research in the field of cognitive neurosciences and its clinical application, especially in neurosurgery - itself able to provide new insights into this topic.

This volume shows how to construct solutions of numerous nonlinear PDEs quickly and easily. The text discusses comparisons and relationships between the varying solutions, methods and approaches.

In dem Band stellt der Autor die Zusammenhänge von Vorstellungskraft und Heilung umfassend dar und führt dafür den Begriff der Bewusstseinsmedizin ein. Er entwickelt eine einfache Sechs-Dramaturgische-Elemente-Methode für die Anwendung der medizinischen Hypnose zur Selbstheilung und erläutert sie anhand von Praxisbeispielen. Für den Band hat der Autor ¿ theoretischer Physiker, Psychologe und Psychotherapeut ¿ die wissenschaftliche Literatur über psychogene Heilung gesammelt, kritisch bewertet und um neue Daten und Erkenntnisse erweitert.

Contemporary spinal surgeons, whether orthopedic or neurosurgeons, are increasingly recognizing minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) as a desirable option to manage advanced degenerative diseases.

The atlas covers the normal microsurgical anatomy of the central skull base as well as the pathological anatomy of the tumorous and vascular lesions of this region. The book gives a detailed description of the contemporary approaches to the individual pathologies in the central skull base which have evolved in the last 15 years.

Das Buch befasst sich mit sämtlichen Aspekten der tiefen Hirnstimulation. Einerseits wird medizinisches, psychologisches und technisches Hintergrundwissen verständlich vermittelt, andererseits auf alltägliche Probleme eingegangen, die auf den ersten Blick zu simpel erscheinen, um hinterfragt zu werden. Das Buch richtet sich in erster Linie an Patienten und Angehörige, aber auch an Neurologen, Psychiater, Psychologen und Angehörige anderer Gesundheitsberufe, die sich über die tiefe Hirnstimulation und deren Anwendungsgebiete informieren wollen.

This book explores contemporary arts-based research, exploring the interdisciplinary BiornaMetics project to create architecture defined by natural patterns. Biornametics interconnects scientific evidence with creative design in the field of architecture.

Important aspects of social networking analysis are covered in this work by combining experimental and theoretical research.
