Bullying. It takes on many forms. It can be the schoolyard pushing and shoving as portrayed in 80's movies, or it can be spreading rumors via Instagram or Snapchat. Bullying can be face-to-face, or it can be through the Internet or text message. It can be name calling, or it can be ignoring. In the next seven minutes, an American child will be bullied at school. Chances are that teachers will not be able to intervene. Only 1 in 9 children will help their peer. The rest will stand by, watching, or possibly filming it to upload to social media. It Doesn't Have To Stay This Way With the media bringing more attention to the extreme effects of bullying on kids, including beatings and suicide, more and more people are becoming aware of the gravity of the situation. BULLYPROOF brings together experts in child development who have a singular mission: create confident kids and keep them safe from bullying. The stories and chapters shared within these covers are real and usable strategies that you can put into place with your own kid. With your help, we can make our communities BULLYPROOF.

The ABZ 2008 conference was held in London during September 16–18, 2008. The conference aimed at contributing to the cross-fertilization of three rigorous methods that share a common conceptual foundation and are widely used in both academia and industry for the design and analysis of hardware and so- waresystems,namely,abstractstate machines,B, andZ. It followedonfromthe Dagstuhl seminar on Rigorous Methods for Software Construction and Ana- sis, which was organized in May 2006 by Jean-Raymond Abrial (ETH Zur ¨ ich, Switzerland) and Uwe Gl¨ asser (Simon Fraser University – Burnaby, Canada), and brought together researchers from the ASM and the B community (see: http://www. dagstuhl. de/06191). The conference simultaneously incorporated the 15th International ASM Workshop, the 17th International Conference of Z Users and the 8th Inter- tional Conference on the B Method, which were present with separate Program Committees to select the papers published in separate tracks (see Chapters 2–4 of these proceedings). The conference covered a wide range of researchspanning from theoretical and methodological foundations to tool support and practical applications. It was split into three main parts: – Aone-daycommonprogramoffourinvitedlectures,seeChap. 1ofthesep- ceedings,and the presentationof three papers selected among the submitted contributions – Two days of contributed research papers and short presentations of work in progress, of industrial experience reports and of tool demonstrations, as documented in Chap.

Abstract State Machines, B and Z

Upstream processing refers to the production of proteins by cells genetically engineered to contain the human gene which will express the protein of interest. The demand for large quantities of specific proteins is increasing the pressure to boost cell culture productivity, and optimizing bioreactor output has become a primary concern for most pharmaceutical companies. Each chapter in Cell Culture and Upstream Processing is taken from presentations at the highly acclaimed IBC conferences as well as meetings of the European Society for Animal Cell Technology (ESACT) and Protein Expression in Animal Cells (PEACe) and describes how to improve yield and optimize the cell culture production process for biopharmaceuticals, by focusing on safety, quality, economics and operability and productivity issues. Cell Culture and Upstream Processing will appeal to a wide scientific audience, both professional practitioners of animal cell technology as well as students of biochemical engineering or biotechnology in graduate or high level undergraduate courses at university.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods, ICFEM 2007, held in Boca Raton, Florida, USA, November 14-15, 2007. The 19 revised full papers together with two invited talks presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The papers address all current issues in formal methods and their applications in software engineering. The papers are organized in topical sections.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods, ICFEM 2015, held in Paris, France, in November 2015. The 27 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics in the area of formal methods and software engineering and are devoted to advancing the state of the art of applying formal methods in practice. They focus in particular on combinations of conceptual and methodological aspects with their formal foundation and tool support.

The third in a series of international conferences on Integrated Formal Methods, IFM 2002, was held in Turku, Finland, May 15–17, 2002. Turku, situated in the south western corner of the country, is the former capital of Finland. The ? conference was organized jointly by Abo Akademi University and Turku Centre for Computer Science. The theme of IFM 1999 was the integration of state and behavioral based formalisms. For IFM 2000 this was widened to include all aspects pertaining to the integration of formal methods and formal notations. One of the goals of IFM 2002 was to further investigate these themes. Moreover, IFM 2002 explored the relations between formal methods and graphical notations, especially the industrialstandardlanguageforsoftwaredesign,theUni?edModelingLanguage (UML). The themes of IFM 2002 re?ect what we believe is a growing trend in the Formal Methods and Software Engineering research communities. Over the last threedecades,computerscientistshavedevelopedarangeofformalismsfocusing on particular aspects of behavior or analysis, such as sequential program str- tures,concurrentprogramstructures,dataandinformationstructures,temporal reasoning, deductive proof, and model checking. Much e?ort is now being - voted to integrating these methods in order to combine their advantages and ensure they scale up to industrial needs. Graphical notations are now widely used in software engineering and there is growing recognition of the importance ofprovidingthesewiththeformalunderpinningsandformalanalysiscapabilities found in formal methods.

Animal cell culture is an important laboratory technique in the biological and medical sciences. It has become an essential tool for the study of most biochemical and physiological processes and the use of large-scale animal cell culture has become increasingly important to the commercial production of specific compounds for the pharmaceutical industry. This book describes the basic requirements for establishing and maintaining cell cultures both in the laboratory and in large-scale operations. Minimal background knowledge of the subject is assumed and therefore it will be a readable introduction to animal cell culture for undergraduates, graduates and experienced researchers. Reflecting the latest developments and trends in the field, the new topics include the latest theory of the biological clock of cell lines, the development of improved serum-free media formulations, the increased understanding of the importance and control of protein glycosylation, and the humanization of antibodies for therapeutic use.
