This volume demonstrates advanced strategies in biomedical sciences and healthcare focused on suboptimal health conditions in the framework of Predictive, Preventive and Personalised Medicine (3PM/PPPM). Potential benefits in healthcare systems and for society at large include but are not restricted to an improved life-quality of major populations and socio-economical groups, advanced professionalism of healthcare-givers and sustainable healthcare economy. ​Reactive medical services applied to healthcare resulted in epidemics of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes mellitus type 2 with currently about a half of billion patients registered worldwide. Far-reaching consequences are cascading co-morbidities with poor prognosis such as severe cardiovascular and neurological disorders, eye pathologies (e.g., proliferative diabetic retinopathy as the world leading cause of blindness) and several types of cancer, amongst others. Corresponding socio-economic burden istremendous. The paradigm changes from reactive medicine to PPPM propagated by EPMA is, therefore, pivotal for advanced healthcare to improve the economy of medical services, life quality of populations and individual outcomes. To this end, individuals with suboptimal health condition comprise the target group for predictive diagnostics and cost-effective personalised treatments to protect affected individuals and sub-populations against health-to-disease transition, a window of opportunity for PPPM. This goal is of highest priority benefiting millions of people and societies at large.

Le développement des nanotechnologies et des technologies liées à l'énergie au cours des trois dernières décennies a suscité un intérêt accru pour l'application des matériaux à base de fibres de carbone dans les dispositifs de stockage d'énergie électrochimique, tels que les supercondensateurs et les batteries Li/Na-ion. Toutefois, les performances électrochimiques des matériaux à base de fibres de carbone sont étroitement liées à leur structure et à leurs méthodes de fabrication. Par conséquent, le contrôle de la micro-nanostructure des matériaux à base de fibres de carbone et la compréhension approfondie de la relation entre leur performance électrochimique, leur structure et leurs méthodes de fabrication sont des conditions essentielles pour étendre l'application de ces matériaux dans les dispositifs de stockage d'énergie électrochimique. Ce livre fournit un aperçu complet de la préparation des matériaux à base de fibres de carbone, du contrôle structurel et de l'optimisation de leurs performances électrochimiques lorsqu'ils sont utilisés comme électrodes négatives dans les batteries Li/Na-ion. Il est destiné à servir de guide pour les chercheurs et les praticiens dans ce domaine, offrant des preuves théoriques et expérimentales pour les applications électrochimiques des matériaux à base de fibres de carbone.

El desarrollo de la nanotecnología y las tecnologías relacionadas con la energía en las tres últimas décadas ha suscitado un creciente interés por la aplicación de materiales basados en fibra de carbono en dispositivos electroquímicos de almacenamiento de energía, como supercondensadores y baterías de Li/Na-ion.

Die Entwicklung der Nanotechnologie und der energiebezogenen Technologien in den letzten drei Jahrzehnten hat zu einem verstärkten Interesse an der Anwendung von Materialien auf Kohlenstofffaserbasis in elektrochemischen Energiespeichern wie Superkondensatoren und Li/Na-Ionen-Batterien geführt. Die elektrochemische Leistung von Materialien auf Kohlenstofffaserbasis hängt jedoch eng mit ihrer Struktur und ihren Herstellungsverfahren zusammen. Daher ist die Kontrolle der Mikro-Nanostruktur von Materialien auf Kohlenstofffaserbasis und ein tiefes Verständnis der Beziehung zwischen ihrer elektrochemischen Leistung, Struktur und Herstellungsmethoden eine wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Erweiterung der Anwendung dieser Materialien in elektrochemischen Energiespeichern. Dieses Buch bietet einen umfassenden Überblick über die Herstellung von Materialien auf Kohlenstofffaserbasis, die strukturelle Kontrolle und die Optimierung ihrer elektrochemischen Leistung bei der Verwendung als negative Elektroden in Li/Na-Ionen-Batterien. Es soll als Leitfaden für Forscher und Praktiker auf diesem Gebiet dienen und bietet sowohl theoretische als auch experimentelle Beweise für die elektrochemischen Anwendungen von Materialien auf Kohlenstofffaserbasis.

In many applications, e.g., bioinformatics, web access traces, system u- lization logs, etc., the data is naturally in the form of sequences. It has been of great interests to analyze the sequential data to find their inherent char- teristics. The sequential pattern is one of the most widely studied models to capture such characteristics. Examples of sequential patterns include but are not limited to protein sequence motifs and web page navigation traces. In this book, we focus on sequential pattern mining. To meet different needs of various applications, several models of sequential patterns have been proposed. We do not only study the mathematical definitions and application domains of these models, but also the algorithms on how to effectively and efficiently find these patterns. The objective of this book is to provide computer scientists and domain - perts such as life scientists with a set of tools in analyzing and understanding the nature of various sequences by : (1) identifying the specific model(s) of - quential patterns that are most suitable, and (2) providing an efficient algorithm for mining these patterns. Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Data Mining is the process of extracting implicit knowledge and discovery of interesting characteristics and patterns that are not explicitly represented in the databases. The techniques can play an important role in understanding data and in capturing intrinsic relationships among data instances. Data mining has been an active research area in the past decade and has been proved to be very useful.
