Assembles the texts of presentations given at the NATO-sponsored Advanced Research Workshop on Quasi-Optical Transmission of High-Power Microwaves, held in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia in February 2004.

Includes contributions from lectures of the 25th International Summer School on Engineering Theories of Software Intensive Systems, held at Marktoberdorf, Germany, in August 2004. This book presents mathematical foundations of software engineering and engineering methods to examine software engineering techniques and foundations in industries.

The fast detection of explosives from the vapor phase would be one way to enhance the protection of society against terrorist attacks. In general different strategies can be adopt to the basic problem of explosive detection: * bulk detection * vapor detection Normally meetings cover both aspects and applications of the detection.

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop, held in Naples, Italy, 24-28 June 2002

Hosted by the Yerevan Physics Institute, Yerevan, Armenia, 30 invited researchers from former Soviet Union and NATO countries gathered at Nor-Hamberd, Yerevan, on the slopes of Mount Aragats to discuss recent theoretical as well as expe- mental developments on means of producing photons from mostly low energy electrons.

Proceedings of the NATO ARW on Nonlinear Dielectric Phenomena in Complex Liquids, Jaszowiec-Ustron, Poland, 10-14 May 2003

Covers the main topics in the theory of superdense QCD matter and its application to the astrophysics of compact stars. This book deals with the question whether hypothetical states of dense matter in the compact star interior could give clues to the explanation of puzzling phenomena such as gamma-ray bursts, and pulsar glitches.

Hosted by the Yerevan Physics Institute, Yerevan, Armenia, 30 invited researchers from former Soviet Union and NATO countries gathered at Nor-Hamberd, Yerevan, on the slopes of Mount Aragats to discuss recent theoretical as well as expe- mental developments on means of producing photons from mostly low energy electrons.

The time had clearly come to remedy this situation in order to be able to take full advantage of the enormous potential for societal benefits to be derived from exploiting the synergistic relationships between UNCD dispersed particulates and UNCD films.

Provides a comprehensive overview of the field of processing natural gas is given, through a series of chapters written by leading scientists and engineers in the field. This book discusses the developments and shows the work relevant to the area by a series of works by researchers working in this and related fields.

Liquid crystals, polymers and polymer liquid crystals are soft condensed matter systems of major technological and scientific interest.

The fast detection of explosives from the vapor phase would be one way to enhance the protection of society against terrorist attacks. In general different strategies can be adopt to the basic problem of explosive detection: * bulk detection * vapor detection Normally meetings cover both aspects and applications of the detection.

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop, Moscow, Russia, from 30 October to 2 November 2001

Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop, held in Kyiv, Ukraine, from 8 to 12 June 2003

Contains lectures by world experts in the various branches of this field corresponding to lectures presented during the School "Frontiers of the Universe" at the IESC, (Corsica, France). These pedagogical lectures cover major subjects relevant to the field, providing introductory material for PhD students as well as to more senior scientists.

Biomaterials science has advanced dramatically in the past 50 years with the increased cooperation between engineers chemists and biologists.

The meeting is both a school and has also the character of a conference: A school because there are many advanced students, many of which are themselves already top researchers and who are contributing with their own research in seminars and posters.

This book examines both the potential application of electronic nose technology, and the current state of development of chemical sensors for the detection of vapours from explosives, such as those used in landmines.
