Description
Springer Time-Varying Network Optimization by Dan Sha , C. K. Wong
This text describes a series of models, propositions, and algorithms developed in recent years on time-varying networks. References and discussions on relevant problems and studies that have appeared in the literature are integrated in the book. Its eight chapters consider problems including the shortest path problem, the minimum-spanning tree problem, the maximum flow problem, and many more. The time-varying traveling salesman problem and the Chinese postman problem are presented in a chapter together with the time-varying generalized problem. While these topics are examined within the framework of time-varying networks, each chapter is self-contained so that each can be read - and used - separately. Protein structure.- Amino acids.- Protein structure.- Purification and characterisation of proteins.- Protein sequencing.- Enzymes.- Enzymes are biocatalysts.- Enzyme kinetics.- Haemoglobin and myoglobin: co-operativity.- Enzyme kinetics: special cases.- Special proteins.- Prion proteins and prion diseases.- Immunoproteins.- Cell skeleton.- Motor proteins and movement.- Cell-cell interactions.- Aiding in folding: molecular chaperones and chaperonins.- Membrane transport.- Transport of proteins into mitochondria.- Intracellular protein transport.- Transport of solutes across membranes.
