English

The field of cancer therapy is evolving in recent years and researchers have focused on new therapeutic modalities for this malignant disease due to several reasons. The first reason is high mortality and morbidity of cancer around the world that in spite of development of different treatment strategies such as surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy, prognosis and overall survival of cancer patients are poor Therefore, it is highly recommended to design novel strategies for treatment of cancer. Nanomedicine in era of cancer therapy demonstrates how obstacles for cancer therapy can be solved using nanomedicine and how it can help in improving prognosis and life quality of cancer patients. Nanomedicine in era of cancer therapy has an emphasis on the capacity of nanocarriers for the delivery of drugs, genes and co-delivery. Nanomedicine in era of cancer therapy provides new chapters related to specific delivery of each genetic tool such as siRNA, shRNA and CRISPR. By adding a section related to phototherapy, the knowledge of the audience will be approved towards photodynamic therapy and hyperthermia as new methods for cancer therapy and how they can be combined with other treatment strategies such as chemotherapy for synergistic suppression of cancer cells. The combination of all these cancer therapies will be advantage to a variety of researchers such as those working in field of cancer therapy, challenges for cancer treatment, gene therapy, drug delivery, phototherapy and clinical application of nanomaterials.

Knowledge Dissemination for Multimedia Traffic

1st Edition
December 31, 2029
Sami Souihi + 2 more
English

Knowledge Dissemination for Multimedia Traffic presents a clear demonstration of the importance of developed algorithms in terms of access time, distribution, and load sharing between the control nodes for knowledge management, complete with a platform tested on decentralized control of software-defined networks. The extensive growth in Internet traffic, the emergence of new multimedia applications, and the development of new underlying applications has induced many changes in the use of information technology in everyday life. This new evolving trend requires us to rethink the foundation of the network architecture itself, which has resulted in the emergence of new concepts based on a user-centric'' view, instead of a network-centric'' view. Control mechanisms in the network transmission must not only exploit information on data control and management planes, but also consider the knowledge acquired or learned by inductive or deductive inference on the current state of the network (traffic, resources, the rendering of the application) in order to accelerate the decision-making process by the network’s control elements. This book specifically addresses the concept of a system's dissemination of knowledge across autonomic networks. The authors present the foundations and implementation methods for the management, distribution, and exploitation of the knowledge required for the proper functioning of the transmission in the network.

Deep Learning Empowered Security in Cyber Physical Systems presents the conceptual and core technical aspects that provide an insight into the latest research trends and relevant theoretical framework in the field of CPS and its security.User’s interest is in learning the different methods by which IoT data can be secured. The interesting fact is that the Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a major role in it. Thus, such techniques are explored in this book. The approach followed is that the practical knowledge is delivered along with the theoretical concepts. In this era, every CPS requires the system which should be secure data.This book serves as a basis for securing the data of every CPS. As the various paradigms such as CPS, deep learning is explained in detail. No other book integrates securing cyber physical systems using deep learning methods.
