The mystique of biologically inspired (or bioinspired) paradigms is their ability to describe and solve complex relationships from intrinsically very simple initial conditions and with little or no knowledge of the search space. Edited by two prominent, well-respected researchers, the Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications reveals the

This book will provide readers with a good overview of some of the most recent advances in the field of detector technology for gamma-ray imaging, especially as it pertains to new applications. There will be a good mixture of general chapters in both technology and applications in medical imaging and industrial testing. The book will have an in-depth review of the research topics from world-leading specialists in the field. The conversion of the gamma-ray signal into analog/digital value will be covered in some chapters. Some would also provide a review of CMOS chips for gamma-ray image sensors.

This book covers two aspects of the career of D Allan Bromley: the science policy aspect and the scientific aspect.In the first half of the book, contributions from Governor John Sununu, former White House Chief of Staff under President George H W Bush; Neal Lane, former Science Adviser to President William Clinton; John Marburger III, Science Adviser to President George W Bush; and Mary Good, former Undersecretary of Commerce, highlight the role of Bromley as Science Adviser to President George H W Bush and a maker of science policy in the second part of the 20th Century. This part is of interest to science policy scholars, historians, and young persons wishing to start a career in science policy.In the second half of the book, articles by directors of laboratories and leading scientists discuss future programs in all areas of nuclear physics — low-energy, medium-energy and high-energy — to which Bromley greatly contributed, in the USA, Europe and Japan. This part of the book is of interest to all researchers in the field of nuclear physics, as it provides a comprehensive but succinct overview of the field and indicates directions for future research in the first part of the 21st century.
