web2py is a free, open-source web framework for agile development of secure database-driven web applications; it is written in Python and programmable in Python. web2py is a full-stack framework, meaning that it contains all the components you need to build fully functional web applications.

Designed as a comprehensive text for students and professionals pursuing careers in the fields of bioinformatics, molecular biology, pharmacy and drug research, the Fifth Edition continues to offer a fascinating and authoritative treatment of the entire spectrum of bioinformatics, covering a wide range of high-throughput technologies. The content can be used for four core courses: bioinformatics fundamentals, genomics, proteomics and drug discovery and design. The Fifth Edition takes a completely new pedagogical approach and the book is divided into eight distinct Units for the ease of learning: Bioinformatics Fundamentals, Sequence Alignment, Phylogenetic Analysis, Genomics, Protein Structure and Function, Drug Discovery Methods, Drug Design and Development and Integrative Topics. Accordingly, all the chapters are revised and updated in the new edition, besides introduction of seven new chapters and another seven completely re-written chapters. As a student-friendly text, it embodies several pedagogical features such as detailed examples, numerous tables, a large number of diagrams, flow charts and web resources. The book in its present edition should prove an invaluable asset to the students and researchers in the fields of bioinformatics, biotechnology, computer-aided drug design, information technology, medical diagnostics, molecular biology and pharmaceutical sciences. NEW TO THE FIFTH EDITION • Re-written chapters — Biological database search and data retrieval, Pair-wise alignment of sequences, PSSMs and Hidden Markov Models, Gene Mapping, Gene Prediction, Protein Structure Overview and Protein Structure Prediction. • Inclusion of new chapters—Scoring Matrices, Gene Sequencing, Regulatory Elements Prediction, Comparative Genomics, Protein Structure Databases, Protein Function Prediction and Potential Drug Targets. KEY FEATURES • Covers the field of bioinformatics in a complete and integrated approach – moving from the fundamentals to theory and practical applications. • State-of-the-art technologies for gene identification, molecular modeling and monitoring of cellular processes. • Data mining, data curation and analysis, classification, interpretation and efficient structure determination of genomes and proteomes. • Companion website provides useful resources for the teachers as well as for the students. So, visit Learning Centre https:// www.phindia.com/bioinformatics_mendiratta_rastogi to have access of Lecture notes, solutions manual, MCQs, problems set for practice, glossary of important terms, etc. TARGET AUDIENCE • UG and PG Students of Bioinformatics, Biotechnology, Molecular Biology and Pharmacy.

This is a cookbook and you may read the chapters in any order. The recipes need not be read sequentially. There are a good amount of code examples and relevant screenshots to ease learning pains. The target audience are Python developers with basic knowledge of web2py who want to gain further knowledge of web2py

This book describes the results of activities undertaken to construct the CLARIN research infrastructure in the Low Countries, i.e., in the Netherlands and in Flanders (the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium). CLARIN is a European research infrastructure for humanities and social science researchers that work with natural language data. This book introduces the CLARIN infrastructure, describes various aspects of the technical implementation of the infrastructure, and introduces data, applications and software services created in the Low Countries for a wide variety of humanities disciplines. These enable researchers to accelerate their research activities and to base their conclusions on a much larger and richer empirical base than was possible before, thus providing a basis for carrying out groundbreaking research in which old questions can be investigated in new ways and new questions can be raised and investigated for the first time. Given CLARIN's focus on language data, linguistics and particularly syntax are prominently present. However, other humanities disciplines that work with natural language data such as history, literary studies, religion studies, media studies, political studies, and philosophy are represented as well. The book is a must read for humanities scholars and students who want to understand and use the potential that the Digital Humanities offer, as well as for computer scientists and developers of research infrastructures, in particular for researchers working on the CLARIN infrastructure in other countries.

The Healthcare industry is one of the largest and rapidly developing industries. Over the last few years, healthcare management is changing from disease centered to patient centered. While on one side the analysis of healthcare data plays an important role in healthcare management, but on the other side the privacy of a patient’s record must be of equal concern. This book uses a research-oriented approach and focuses on privacy-based healthcare tools and technologies. It offers details on privacy laws with real-life case studies and examples, and addresses privacy issues in newer technologies such as Cloud, Big Data, and IoT. It discusses the e-health system and preserving its privacy, and the use of wearable technologies for patient monitoring, data streaming and sharing, and use of data analysis to provide various health services. This book is written for research scholars, academicians working in healthcare and data privacy domains, as well as researchers involved with healthcare law, and those working at facilities in security and privacy domains. Students and industry professionals, as well as medical practitioners might also find this book of interest.
