Chinmedomics: The Integration of Serum Pharmacochemistry and Metabolomics to Elucidate the Scientific Value of Traditional Chinese Medicine uses new experimental techniques and research to open doors in drug discovery and development related to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This book features a unique approach that combines chemometric analysis with metabolomics studies to illuminate significant changes that have occurred in syndrome states while simultaneously analyzing the efficacy of chemical ingredients in herbal medicines. Chapters provide cutting-edge information on traditional medicine, analytical technology, natural products, metabolomics, bioinformatics and their applications. This book provides a valuable resource for pharmacologists, pharmaceutical scientists, medicinal plant researchers, pharmacognosists and chemists working with TCM and highlights ways to further research and advances in this area in the future.

This title provides an in-depth coverage of heterogeneous wireless networks, small cells, and device-to-device (D2D) communications. The authors present performance results for an ideal, partially connected, interference network as well as a practical heterogeneous network, and provide insight into network architecture and performance and details about resource mobility, channel models, and typical and statistical interference modelling. The book also explains leveraging resource heterogeneity in interference mitigation and presents the challenges and feasible solutions for concurrent transmission. Researchers and engineers in the field will find the practical information on LTE and LTE-Advanced, 5G and future network designs particularly interesting and useful.
