Accounting Principles II

A liability is an existing debt or obligation of a company. It is an amount owed to a third-party creditor that requires something of value, usually cash, to be transferred to the creditor to settle the debt. Most obligations are known amounts based on invoices and con- tracts; some liabilities are estimated because the value that changes hands is not fixed at the time of the initial transactio…

oats nutrition and technology

The landmark approval of a health claim for oats in 1997 by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) marked the first food specific health claim. The FDA had concluded that an intake of at least glucan from oats as part of a diet low in saturated fats could help reduce the risk of heart disease (Chapter 17).

Nanotechnology for Chemical Engineers

Although the two terms “technology” and “engineering” are interlaced, the prin- ciples of each subject and their capabilities are quite different. Generally, de fi nition of technology is broader than that of engineering, and from a normative standpoint, it is a part of coevolution process with society (Keulartz et al. 2004).

When building a new application, often one of the first things you’ll want to do is to design its data model. In relational databases such as MySQL, this step is formalized in the process of normalization, focused on removing redundancy from a set of tables. MongoDB, unlike relational databases, stores its data in structured documents rather than the fixed tables required in relational databa…

By its very nature, a very large distributed,decentralized,self-organized,and evolving system necessarily yields uncertain and incomplete measurements and data.Probability and statistics are the fundamental mathematical tools that allow us to model, reason and proceed with inference in uncertain environments.

Thinking Through Dementia

A context is a surround. We are all situated or positioned in particular, but changing, contexts; which means that we are surrounded. Inevitably, however, we are part of our surroundings. It is perfectly true that we often feel disconnected from our surroundings. Sometimes we are just amused, even cynical, observers; or we can feel positively detached from what is going on around us (when it re…

They reflect the varied history of mankind and are at the same time contemporaneous expressions of the diversity of human…
