This book constitutes the proceedings of the International Conference on Cloud Computing and Security (ICCCS 2015) will be held on August 13-15, 2015 in Nanjing, China.The objective of ICCCS 2015 is to provide a forum for researchers, academicians, engineers, industrial professionals, students and government officials involved in the general areas of information security and cloud computing.

This series of books focuses on the internal wave hydrodynamic effects on submersibles. As the first book in the series, it specifically studies the patterns and mechanisms of interaction between internal waves and submersibles. Internal waves are widely-present in the stratified ocean and are a type of nonlinear, large-amplitude wave phenomenon. Submersibles are highly likely to encounter internal waves during underwater operations, which can severely affect the stability and hydrodynamic...

This monograph examines Chosŏn Dynasty's Zun Zhou Si Ming (Revering the Zhou and Longing for the Ming) during the period of 1637–1800, after Chosŏn entered tributary relations with the Qing. It shows how the royal family, Confucian scholars, and Ming-loyalist descendants continued to affirm Ming legitimacy through practices such as ritual commemoration of Ming emperors, covert use of Ming reign-titles, and the compilation of Ming-centered historical writings, alongside related material and...
