This volume presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Health Informatics (ICHI). The conference was a new special topic conference initiative by the International Federation of Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE), held in Vilamoura, Portugal on 7-9 November, 2013. The main theme of the ICHI2013 was “Integrating Information and Communication Technologies with Biomedicine for Global Health”. The proceedings offer a unique forum to examine enabling technologies of sensors, devices and systems that optimize the acquisition, transmission, processing, storage, retrieval of biomedical and health information as well as to report novel clinical applications of health information systems and the deployment of m-Health, e-Health, u-Health, p-Health and Telemedicine.
A down-on-his-luck ex-DEA agent tries to find a missing yacht—and the rich couple who were aboard it: "The action is explosive. . . . An excellent series debut." — Booklist Ex-DEA agent Jack Merchant is living out his precarious retirement on the docks of Charlestown, Mass., surrounded by the revenge-minded dealers and punks he used to put away. All he's got is his sloop, Lila, but soon enough he gets a visit from the repo man. Except the repo man's a woman, Sarah Ballard.

This book discusses the fast, thrilling world of speedboats! Readers will learn how these powerful vehicles speed through water. Difficult concepts, such as density and engine workings, are broken down for readers, and a comprehensive diagram highlights major speedboat parts. Also explained is how a speedboat is used for recreation, racing, patrolling, and military work. Additionally, readers will learn about speedboat safety and history. Vibrant graphics, oversized, action-packed photographs, and short, engaging sentences will encourage reluctant readers to steer their way toward learning more about the amazing speedboat! Included are table of contents, fast facts, glossary with phonetic spellings, and index. Buddy Books is an imprint of ABDO Publishing Company.
This volume presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (ICBHI). The conference was a new special topic conference and a common initiative by the International Federation of Medical and Biological Engineering (IFMBE) and IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (IEEE- EMBS). BHI2015 was held in Haikou, China, 8-10 October 2015. The main theme of the BHI2015 is “The Convergence: Integrating Information and Communication Technologies with Biomedicine for Global Health”. The ICBHI2015 proceedings examine enabling technologies of sensors, devices and systems that optimize the acquisition, transmission, processing, storage, retrieval, use of biomedical and health information as well as to report novel clinical applications of health information systems and the deployment of m-Health, e-Health, u-Health, p-Health and Telemedicine.
Annotation. "An excellent book, which has opened up a neglected area of Renaissance thought in a very stimulating way."--Isis.
Intelligent and adaptive techniques are rapidly being used in all stages of medical treatment, from the initial diagnosis to planning delivery and follow-up therapy.To realize the full potential of these techniques, developers and end users must understand both the underlying technology and the specifics of the medical application considered.
