Comprehensive Insect Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacology
The underlying theme of this volume is the understanding of the molecules and processes important in the primary metabolism of insects. The 19 chapters provide both rich historical perspectives and timely reviews of current research, as well as showing the extent of progress to be expected in the near future, including the application of advanced techniques now used for the study of microbial and mammalian processes. The major themes of metabolism, proteins and nucleic acids, and biochemical events in the nervous system each have several chapters devoted to them, but specific topics such as pigments, toxins, and aging are also covered in detail. This extensive volume is therefore an invaluable source of information not only for entomologists but also for all scientists whose work involves insect biochemistry, including zoologists, biochemists, and molecular biologists and geneticists.
Molecular Action of Insecticides on Ion Channels
Documents ongoing research into the molecular understanding of insecticide action, including the action of insecticides on major ion channel families, voltage-sensitive channels, ligand-gated channels, and biopesticide-induced channels. Presents recent advances in how researchers envision molecular binding sites of insecticides on ion channels and the molecular alterations of these sites resulting in site-insensitive resistance mechanisms. Describes new receptor-ion channels and mosaic receptor organizations as novel sites of insecticide action.
Comprehensive Molecular Insect Science: Pharmacology
Comprehensive reference text on molecular insect science. Includes coverage of developments, achievements and new technologies in modern insect science.
Coordinating Plans of Autonomous Agents
This book deals with an important topic in distributed AI: the coordination of autonomous agents' activities. It provides a framework for modelling agents with planning and communicative competence. Important issues in the book are: - How to recognize and reconcile conflicting intentions among a collection of agents. - How to recognize and take advantage of favorable interactions. - How to enable individual agents to represent and reason about the actions, plans, and knowledge of other agents in order to coordinate with them. - When to call a set of plans coordinated and what operations are possible to transform uncoordinated plans into coordinated ones. - How to enable agents to communicate and interact: what communication languages or protocols to use, and what and when to communicate. The book is clearly written with many examples and background material.
