This title gives an authoritative look at the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in climatology and meteorology.

This Supplement includes the scientific communications of the 2nd Cost Action B22 Congress on “Drug Discovery and Development for PARASITIC Diseases3; The Congress is focused on malaria, leishmaniasis and tripanosomiasis, although several abstracts on different parasitic diseases are also included.

COST Action CM1001 published a series of papers in the Redox Biology open access Journal, volumes 1-6:

This book addresses a critical analysis of major media policies in the European Union and the Council of Europe at the period of profound changes affecting both media environments and use, as well as the logic of media policy making and reconfiguration of traditional regulatory models. The analytical problem-related approach explores three problem areas: freedom of expression as a regulatory rationale, AVMS Directive and content-related regulation, and media pluralism and structural regulation. This volume offers a perspective of both “new” and “old” EU Member States on a media policy process seen as an integral part of a European communication space formation and exercise of communication rights.

The main goal of the C21 Action is to increase the knowledge and promote the use of ontologies in the domain of Urban Civil Engineering projects, with a view to facilitating communications between information systems, stakeholders and UCE specialists at a European level. In 2007, the Action convened a successful workshop to address emerging issues in the field. The emphasis was on developing a deeper understanding of how ontologies work in practice to inform the development of future ontologies and conceptual tools that will make communication between urban development disciplines easier.
Working Group 3 is interested in the socio-technical issues that emerge during the development and use of ontologies in the organisations and recognises that the introduction of ontologies will impact on working practices within organisations. So WG3 seeks to examine the use of ontological frameworks and systems in practice and to find out how actual use differs from designers’ intentions and what we can learn from these anomalies to design and maintain better ontologies in future.
This volume presents the contributions to the Workshop, and captures the essence of the meeting.
