The symposium provided a forum for presenting and exploring the l- est research and developments in image and video technology. Discussing the possibilities and directions in these ?elds settled a place where both academic research and industrial activities were presented for mutual bene?t. The aim of the symposium was to promote and disseminate ongoing research on multi- dia hardware and image sensor technologies, graphics and visualization, image analysis, multiple view imaging and processing, computer vision applications, image and video coding, and multimedia processing. The volume is a realization of the ongoing success of the Paci?c Rim Symposium on Video and Image Te- nology for which the ?rst issue (PSIVT 2006) was last year in Hsinchu, Taiwan, Republic of China. PSIVT 2007 provides evidence of the growing stature of the Paci?c Rim s- enti?c community in video and image technology andof their impact worldwide. The symposium received contributions from 31 countries, registering a total of 155 papers, out of which 75 were accepted for publication in these proce- ings, which is equivalent to an acceptance rate of 48. 4%. The review process was carried out in seven di?erent themes, each composed of theme Co-chairs and a ProgramCommittee composed of internationally recognized scientists, all experts in their respective theme. Each paper was peer-reviewed by two to ?ve reviewers.Image Processing, Computer Vision, Pattern Recognition, and Graphics ;4872Imaging systemsCongressesComputer visionCongressesImage analysisCongressesImaging systemsComputer visionImage analysis621.367DAT 758fstubDAT 760fstubDAT 770fstubELT 530fstubSS 4800rvkMery DomingoRueda LuisIEEE Pacific Rim Symposium on Image and Video TechnologyMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996465742603316Advances in Image and Video Technology772155UNISA04349nam 22008292 450 991080762190332120151005020622.01-107-22092-01-139-06377-41-283-11270-197866131127051-139-07616-71-139-08299-X1-139-07845-31-139-08072-50-511-97742-51-139-07043-6(CKB)2670000000083336(EBL)691953(OCoLC)726734804(SSID)ssj0000525708(PQKBManifestationID)11372781(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000525708(PQKBWorkID)10506836(PQKB)11182529(UkCbUP)CR9780511977428(MiAaPQ)EBC691953(Au-PeEL)EBL691953(CaPaEBR)ebr10470723(CaONFJC)MIL311270(EXLCZ)99267000000008333620101013d2011|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierSlavery, disease, and suffering in the southern Lowcountry /Peter McCandless[electronic resource]Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2011.1 online resource (xxi, 297 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Cambridge studies on the American SouthTitle from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).1-107-65618-4 1-107-00415-2 Includes bibliographical references and index.pt. 1.

Slavery, Disease, and Suffering in the Southern Lowcountry argues that the two were intimately connected: both resulted largely from the dominance of rice cultivation on plantations using imported African slave labor. This development began in the coastal lands near Charleston, South Carolina, around the end of the seventeenth century. Rice plantations spread north to the Cape Fear region of North Carolina and south to Georgia and northeast Florida in the late colonial period. The book examines perceptions and realities of the lowcountry disease environment; how the lowcountry became notorious for its 'tropical' fevers, notably malaria and yellow fever; how people combated, avoided or perversely denied the suffering they caused; and how diseases and human responses to them influenced not only the lowcountry and the South, but the United States, even helping to secure American independence.Cambridge studies on the American South.Slavery, Disease, & Suffering in the Southern LowcountryDiseasesSocial aspectsSouth CarolinaHistoryDiseases and historySouth CarolinaHistoryPlantation lifeSouth CarolinaHistoryEnvironmental healthSouth CarolinaHistorySouth CarolinaSocial conditionsCharleston Region (S.C.)Social conditionsSouth CarolinaEconomic conditionsCharleston Region (S.C.)Economic conditionsSouth CarolinaHistoryColonial period, ca. 1600-1775South CarolinaHistory1775-1865DiseasesSocial aspectsHistory.Diseases and historyHistory.Plantation lifeHistory.Environmental healthHistory.362.109757HIS036020bisacshMcCandless Peter1634798UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910807621903321Slavery, disease, and suffering in the southern Lowcountry3975195UNINA
