One plant processes around 8,000 tons of sugar beet daily. It can be said that sugar is a strategic product and byproducts are valuable as well, since they are raw materials for other technological processes which are also important. The author introduces the products of the sugar industry as well as the high product safety requirements. Due to the unambiguous impact of globalization on modern business, one of the requirements set in front of manufacturers is standardization and certification of food safety and quality systems. The book provides an overview of the GFSI Standards - Global Food Safety Initiative and key factors which collaboratively drive continuous improvement in the FSMS system around the world with a vision 'Safe food for consumers everywhere'. Further, it provides an overview of the impact of the globalization process on the sugar industry and the applied GFSI-approved schemes. The objective of this book is an individual analysis of the GFSI approved schemes (FSSC 22000, BRC, IFS). Other standards applied in the food industry are also presented (EMS, Kosher, Halal, SAI-FSA). 80 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The main evidence supporting the theory of an expanding universe is the red-shift of distant galaxies (the increased wavelength of electromagnetic radiation from these galaxies), which is attributed to the Doppler effect. Assuming an expanding universe, the fulfillment of the cosmological principle (the lack of a specific center of the 'world' - that is, each place is the same) requires the adoption of an infinite universe. An infinite universe can hardly expand, since it is difficult to be ever more infinite. Therefore, the model of a three-dimensional spherical universe - in four-dimensional space - must remain. This assumption automatically imposes a curvature of space - the surface of a sphere has non-zero curvature. This is contrary to the commonly assumed Euclidean geometry, and requires a different view on the mechanisms of light propagation. The laws of electrodynamics in non-Euclidean space would also act differently. The following work attempts to explain the observed phenomenon of the red-shift of distant galaxies by adopting the following hypothesis: the speed of electromagnetic waves decreases with distance travelled, due to the curvature of space. 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The general economic and social upheavals that occurred in our country from 2010 until today brought about changes in the way of operation of public school and public education. In the context of austerity that the country entered in order to deal with the economic crisis, serious reductions were marked in expenditures on education. This resulted in mergers and shrinkages of school units, as well as in cuts in teachers¿ salaries and in financial resources for operating expenses. At the same time, at this time of the crisis, a new social fact emerges in education. The increase in the arrival of refugees and immigrants in our country caused a range of social and cultural changes. We are going through a transitional period, redefining education in a new order of things. The effort of our country to comply with the European Strategy for Education puts it in a race through constant changes in legislation, in organization and administration of education in order to reach the goals set. Therefore, a series of events chain, whose the final recipient is the daily function of the school unit, is observed. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Renewable energy sources are essential to use as an alternative to all fossil fuel energy sources that are not environmentally friendly. Out of all the renewable energy sources, solar energy is the most widely used for electricity generation. Electric-powered vehicles, which are the most efficient, are gaining popularity in the automobile industry. The main focus of the study is to minimise the use of a series of batteries in electric vehicles and enhance the use of solar energy. The basic principle of the proposed vehicle is that the energy drawn from the solar panel is directly channelled to the motor. The power generated by the solar panel is measured using a power sensor. The vehicle works on dual-mode power draws and consists of a battery that charges simultaneously while operating. If the climatic conditions are not suitable for the solar panel to generate power and if the user wants to operate the vehicle at that time then there is an alternative source of power through the battery which is being utilised. This research focuses on the simulation of various components, namely, solar panels, Arduino Boards, current sensors, H-Bridges, batteries, and DC motors for the vehicle. 60 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The pandemic caused by COVID-19 has forced the adoption of health measures such as social distancing and confinement, which have forced the suspension of educational processes in a face-to-face manner. For this reason, pedagogical alternatives based on the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) have been adopted to develop the process of distance learning, in a scenario of considerable limitations due to deficient technological access, high poverty levels, and geographic barriers predominant in Ecuador. ICTs have been successfully applied in the teaching of English as a second language in many other countries taking advantage of multimedia resources for this purpose. To evaluate the effectiveness of using ICT s as a didactic strategy, students from elementary and secondary education in different regions of Ecuador (the Highlands, the Amazon Rainforest, and the Coast), who applied the learning strategies in their homes, were evaluated. 72 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Smile is a universally known expression of happiness and can brighten up not just your day, but others around you as well. However, if you're hiding behind a shy smile and are afraid to open wide because you don't like the appearance of your teeth, then braces are the answer. Orthodontic treatment, however, is a double-edged sword, as it brings along potential risks of gingival inflammation, root resorption, enamel decalcification, and most importantly, it can burnout patient's co-operation. These consequences can be minimized if the duration of treatment is shortened. Unfortunately many potential orthodontic patients decline treatment, due to long treatment time of 2 years or longer. Accelerated Orthodontics has proved to be effective, and predictable and has led to a remarkable paradigm shift in orthodontics.Hence, this book provides an overview of several methods to accelerate orthodontic tooth movement so that orthodontic treatment in present day not just improves the functional harmony and esthetic outlook but is also completed in efficient duration with minimal side-effects. 112 pp. Englisch.

Studies show that the community has bad perception towards autism. This book highlighted teachers' knowledge and perception towards children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Malaysia. We found that, only few of the teachers have good knowledge on autism, however more have positive attitude towards autism. There is a lack of awareness and knowledge concerning ASD in the general population. Teachers recognize their own lack of knowledge of ASD and this awareness co-existed with an interest in increasing their knowledge and skills in this area. Lastly, teachers were of the belief that the government should be more involved in the services offered to children with ASD. We would like to call for the incorporation of programs and educational curricula in teacher-training that focuses on children with special needs. This book will help to improve understanding of social support, work engagement and the socio-demographics factors that are associated with teacher efficacy among Malaysian special education school teachers. 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Anchorage control acts as the cornerstone of the orthodontic force system. Anchorage is provided by the teeth that resist the forces of reaction generated by the active components of the appliance. So, any unwanted tooth movement must be controlled; otherwise, the underlying malocclusion will worsen during tooth alignment and to overcome this problem, skeletal anchorage has been increasingly popularised into orthodontic treatment. Melson, Peterson, and Costa used the concept of gaining anchorage from infra zygomatic crest since 1998 for intrusion and retraction in a partially edentulous patient using zygomatic ligatures. 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Our book introduces two parts: Accounting model for sustainable development and Factors affecting the application of sustainable accounting and sustainable development in enterprises. Sustainable development is an essential need of all countries in the world. Sustainable development requires synchronization in all industries and fields. There have been many studies on sustainable development at the macro level, but there are very few studies on sustainable development at the micro-enterprise level. Accounting is also an area that needs to be applied to provide sustainable information. The book outlines the contents that businesses need to innovate to implement sustainable development accounting. We will analyze the attributes that characterize the innovations required for traditional accounting in business. By studying the data of 198 companies listed on Vietnam's stock market, we research and conduct tests to conclude the difference between two groups of businesses that apply a sustainable accounting part and do not apply sustainable accounting. We also use regression models to identify factors and measure their influence on sustainability accounting in enterprises. 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Wireless Sensor Networks are widely used in various domains like military, habitat monitoring, medical monitoring for humans, environment monitoring in industries. Some applications of WSN are critical in nature and would have adverse effects as a result of intrusion. It is critical to detect and isolate the compromised nodes in order to avoid being misled by the falsified information injected by the adversary through compromised nodes. It is important to avoid malicious damage while information transmits in wireless network. So Wireless Intrusion Detection System (WIDS) becomes one of important topics in wireless sensor networks. In this thesis, we proposed a novel scheme that is based on distributed intrusion detection system. The individual IDS agent is placed in every node. Each IDS agent runs independently. If anomaly is detected in the local data, neighbouring IDS agents can cooperatively participate in global intrusion detection process. Here we have focus on detection of two types of attacks: sequence no. attack and flooding attack in AODV protocol. Simulation results show that our proposed intrusion detection system can effectively detect compromised node. 56 pp. Englisch.
