Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Alcoholism and the recreational use of cannabis are two of the most common addictions in the European Union. The consumption of these substances plays a significant role in chronic and acute health conditions, namely oral health. While the patterns of use and effects on the body are different over the long term, there are similar effects of these two addictions when it comes to oral health.Alcohol consumption contributes to tooth erosion and periodontitis, and there are studies that also associate it with an increased risk of oral cancer. Cannabis causes periodontal disease, xerostomia and oral candidiasis, and is also associated with head and neck cancer, although there are conflicting studies on the latter effect.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Aggregation in colloidal suspensions depends on Brownian motion which exists between colloidal particles constantly in collision. The DLVO theory is a cornerstone in the analysis of aggregation of particles it is the foundation in understanding stability (on which aggregate formation is dependent) in colloidal dispersions. Electrostatic double layer forces and van der Waals forces are the major interacting forces that influence the formation of aggregates. In this project the factors that are considered to influence aggregate formation in colloidal dispersions among which are pH, salt concentration, particle size distribution and viscosity. The influence of these factors mentioned is investigated in this book. I hope the knowledge shared is beneficial in understanding interfacial forces.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -This book aims to investigate the contributing factors that impact the performance of IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Examination), Cambridge University, ESL Learners in Northern Region Schools, and The Capital Schools of Maldives. This research explores the situational differences among the secondary learners in the rural Northern Region and the Capital City of Maldives in terms of teacher qualification, availability of resources, students¿ learning styles and motivation, parent involvement, and support in ESL learning. The findings indicate that the students in the capital are at a greater advantage geographically as they are more exposed to the resources and are susceptible to greater exposure to the communicative and proper use of language. They are rich in vocabulary and intrinsic motivation for better performance in ESL. This study provides imperative details that could bring profound and proliferating changes to the development of curriculum and syllabi for Secondary learners to mitigate the disparity between the island schools and capital city schools.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The objective of this book was to establish if Zimbabwe has the potential and Information Communication Technology (ICT) capacity to implement e-voting methods in the country's often discredited electoral process. The study adopted qualitative methods and secondary data collected from relevant reports, questionnaires randomly distributed to the general populace as well as interviews with Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) and the Postal and Telecommunications Regulatory Authority of Zimbabwe (POTRAZ) officials. The book highlights the global and national status of ICT adoption in Zimbabwe which is the key driver to the successful implementation of e-voting, internet coverage, and use in the country. The research also investigated how Zimbabwe citizens in the diaspora, through new Internet platforms, can exercise their right to participate in the country's political discourse and vote using the e-voting model. The findings indicate that though it can be done, it is not being practiced. Hence citizens in the diaspora are being excluded from the electoral process.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The proposed approach employs data mining and forensic techniques to identify the representative SC-patterns for a user. The time that a habitual SC pattern appears in the user¿s log ¿le is counted, the most commonly used SC-patterns are ¿ltered out, and then a user¿s pröle is established. By identifying a user¿s SC-patterns as his/her computer usage habits from the user¿s current input SCs, the PSAIA resists suspected attackers. The experimental results demonstrate that the average detection accuracy is higher than 94% when the decisive rate threshold is 0.9, indicating that the PSAIA can assist system administrators to point out an insider or an attacker in a closed environment. The further study will be done by improving PSAIA¿s performance and investigating third-party shell commands.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.
