For example, grammar-based techniques are introduced for traversals of Cartesian and octree-type meshes, and arithmetisation of SFC is explained to compute SFC mappings and indexings. The locality properties of SFC are discussed in detail, together with their importance for algorithms.

Exploring the complexities of male sexuality, this book delves into issues like sexual boredom, internet sex, and fantasies that often confuse women and leave men feeling ashamed. Psychologist Michael Bader uses real-life examples from his practice to shed light on these nuances, aiming to foster a deeper understanding of male behavior. By increasing awareness of the underlying psychology, the work seeks to enhance self-esteem and improve communication in relationships for both men and women.

This proceedings volume collects review articles that summarize research conducted at the Munich Centre of Advanced Computing (MAC) from 2008 to 2012. The articles address the increasing gap between what should be possible in Computational Science and Engineering due to recent advances in algorithms, hardware, and networks, and what can actually be achieved in practice; they also examine novel computing architectures, where computation itself is a multifaceted process, with hardware awareness or ubiquitous parallelism due to many-core systems being just two of the challenges faced. Topics cover both the methodological aspects of advanced computing (algorithms, parallel computing, data exploration, software engineering) and cutting-edge applications from the fields of chemistry, the geosciences, civil and mechanical engineering, etc., reflecting the highly interdisciplinary nature of the Munich Centre of Advanced Computing.

This handbook of kinin biology and biochemistry covers the current knowledgeof kinins, a family of peptides involved in numerous physiological and pathophysiological processes. Recent publications have shown that the kinin system is highly relevant in a variety of disease states such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis and traumatic injuries. Furthermore, the first drug targeting system has just been approved for clinical use. The goal of this book is to provide advanced students and researchers a basic understanding of the kinin system and its role within the various organ systems. The authors of this book are experts in their fields, including a Nobel Laureate.

Edited by a renowned scientist in the field with more than 200 high profile scientific publications to his name, this is the first book to provide a comprehensive overview of all cardiovascular hormone systems. Clearly structured, the text covers steroid and peptide hormones, amines, and arachidonic acid metabolites, as well as such others as nucleotides, nitric oxide, and acetylcholine. An essential reference for researchers working on the cardiovascular system and related diseases.

Essstörungen haben sich in den letzten Jahrzehnten mit rasender Geschwindigkeit in allen Bevölkerungsschichten ausgebreitet. Überwiegend sind Mädchen und junge Frauen die Hauptbetroffenen. Doch es finden sich auch immer wieder Männer, die professionelle Hilfe suchen. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Ursachen für Essstörungen bei Frauen bereits auf breiter Basis erforscht wurden. Dabei stellt sich die Frage, ob sich die bereits gefundenen Ursachen möglicherweise in modifizierter Form auch auf Männer übertragen lassen oder ob ganz neue Wege gegangen werden müssen Das Buch beginnt mit einer umfangreichen Auseinandersetzung zum Thema Essstörungen. Adipositas (Fettsucht) wird bewusst ausgeklammert. Ausgehend von den Erklärungsmodellen der Ursachen bei Frauen werden auf Basis männlicher Sozialisationstheorien Fragestellungen formuliert. Mit Hilfe zweier Interviews werden mögliche Gemeinsamkeiten in den Erklärungsansätzen gesucht und gefunden. Der Autor betreibt innovative, teilweise auch provozierende Grundlagenforschung und richtet sich mit seinem Buch an Betroffene, Eltern, Ärzte, Psychotherapeuten, Mitarbeiter in Beratungs- und Behandlungsstellen und an alle, die es interessiert.
