Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools

During the past decade transnational education has grown rapidly and become a key initiative of internationalization of higher education. In China one of the main forms of transnational education is Chinese-foreign Cooperation in Running Schools (CFCRS). In May 2017 there were 2545 CFCRS institutions and programs approved by the Chinese government. There are about 560 000 CFCRS students nationwide among which 460 000 are in higher education while graduate numbers have exceeded 1. 6 million. CFCRS has attracted more and more attention and related studies have been increasing over the years. This book contains a comprehensive introduction and in-depth study on CFCRS; and includes comparative studies on the development of international branch campuses of several countries. This volume was originally published as a special issue of Chinese Education and Societies.

Documents Concerning Central Europe from the Hospital’s Rhodian Archives 1314–1428

Documents Concerning Central Europe from the Hospital’s Rhodian Archives 1314–1428 brings together over 450 texts concerning the Hospitallers during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. These texts are crucial sources for understanding the history of the Hospitallers between 1314 and 1428. Whilst some Hospitaller charters and letters have been published elsewhere few scholarly editions contain enough sources to permit close analysis of the language and contents of these documents. Moreover most previous editions focus on certain geographical areas such as Cyprus Rhodes and the Aegean Islands. In contrast this book is the first of its kind to focus on central Europe. It brings together 460 texts dated between 1314 to 1428 and two from 1461. This book will appeal to scholars and students of medieval history and the history of Central Europe as well as those interested in the legal structures and personal networks within the Order of St. John.

CRISPR/Cas-Mediated Genome Editing in Plants

With over 820 million people facing hunger in today’s world the need of the hour is the design of plant varieties with high yield improved traits and resistance properties in order to mitigate the detrimental impacts of biotic and abiotic stress conditions on food crops. This volume highlights the use of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated nuclease proteins as a solution for sustainable agriculture. CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome editing (GE) provides a robust simple precise efficient economical and revolutionary toolbox that leads to improved plant traits with enhanced yield quality and resistance against various stresses including climate-related stress insect pests and diseases pollution-related stresses etc. Key features of the book: Explains the differences between conventional breeding genetically modified crops and genome editing approaches using CRISPR/Cas Introduces the tools of genome editing such as ZFNS (zinc finger nucleases) mega nucleases and TLENS (transcription activator-like effector nucleases) Covers the history origin discovery structure and classification of CRISPR/Cas Examines the databases and computational approaches of CRISPR/Cas Highlights genome editing of important crop plants with CRISPR/Cas systems including wheat maize. tomato Brassica crops rice fruits Explores potential applications of CRISPR/Cas systems for climate smart crops | CRISPR/Cas-Mediated Genome Editing in Plants

Strain-Engineered MOSFETs

Currently strain engineering is the main technique used to enhance the performance of advanced silicon-based metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). Written from an engineering application standpoint Strain-Engineered MOSFETs introduces promising strain techniques to fabricate strain-engineered MOSFETs and to methods to assess the applications of these techniques. The book provides the background and physical insight needed to understand new and future developments in the modeling and design of n- and p-MOSFETs at nanoscale. This book focuses on recent developments in strain-engineered MOSFETS implemented in high-mobility substrates such as Ge SiGe strained-Si ultrathin germanium-on-insulator platforms combined with high-k insulators and metal-gate. It covers the materials aspects principles and design of advanced devices fabrication and applications. It also presents a full technology computer aided design (TCAD) methodology for strain-engineering in Si-CMOS technology involving data flow from process simulation to process variability simulation via device simulation and generation of SPICE process compact models for manufacturing for yield optimization. Microelectronics fabrication is facing serious challenges due to the introduction of new materials in manufacturing and fundamental limitations of nanoscale devices that result in increasing unpredictability in the characteristics of the devices. The down scaling of CMOS technologies has brought about the increased variability of key parameters affecting the performance of integrated circuits. This book provides a single text that combines coverage of the strain-engineered MOSFETS and their modeling using TCAD making it a tool for process technology development and the design of strain-engineered MOSFETs.

Exploring Roguelike Games

Since 1980 in-the-know computer gamers have been enthralled by the unpredictable random and incredibly deep gameplay of Rogue and those games inspired by it known to fans as roguelikes. For decades this venerable genre was off the radar of most players and developers for a variety of reasons: deceptively simple graphics (often just text characters) high difficulty and their demand that a player brings more of themselves to the game than your typical AAA title asks. This book covers many of the most prominent titles and explains in great detail what makes them interesting the ways to get started playing them the history of the genre and more. It includes interviews playthroughs and hundreds of screenshots. It is a labor of love: if even a fraction of the author’s enthusiasm for these games gets through these pages to you then you will enjoy it a great deal. Key Features: Playing tips and strategy for newcomers to the genre Core roguelikes Rogue Angband NetHack Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup ADOM and Brogue The lost roguelikes Super Rogue and XRogue and the early RPG dnd for PLATO systems The Japanese console roguelikes Taloon’s Mystery Dungeon and Shiren the Wanderer Lesser-known but extremely interesting games like Larn DoomRL HyperRogue Incursion and Dungeon Hack Rogue-ish games that blur the edges of the genre including Spelunky HyperRogue ToeJam & Earl Defense of the Oasis Out There and Zelda Randomizer Interviews with such developers as Keith Burgun (100 Rogues and Auro) Rodain Joubert (Desktop Dungeons) Josh Ge (Cogmind) Dr. Thomas Biskup (ADOM) and Robin Bandy (devnull public NetHack tournament) An interview regarding Strange Adventures in Infinite Space Design issues of interest to developers and enthusiasts Author Bio: John Harris has bumped around the Internet for more than 20 years. In addition to writing the columns @Play and Pixel Journeys for GameSetWatch and developer interviews for Gamasutra he has spoken at Roguelike Celebration.
