Στόχο του παρόντος συγγράμματος αποτελεί η εξοικείωση των νέων ιατρών τόσο σε προπτυχιακό επίπεδο όσο και σε επίπεδο ειδικότητας και μεταπτυχιακής εκπαίδευσης με τις σύγχρονες μεθόδους απεικόνισης των έσω γεννητικών οργάνων του θήλεος, με τις βασικές γνώσεις ακτινοανατομίας των οργάνων της γυναικείας πυέλου, τις συνηθέστερες γυναικολογικές παθήσεις και τους αλγόριθμους διαγνωστικής προσέγγισης και διαχείρισης των ασθενών με παθολογικά απεικονιστικά ευρήματα.
Καθώς ο ρόλος της απεικόνισης, ιδιαίτερα τα τελευταία χρόνια με την ραγδαία βελτίωση του τεχνολογικού εξοπλισμού, βαίνει διαρκώς αυξανόμενος στη κλινική πρακτική, καθίσταται αναγκαία η χρήση μιας κοινής γλώσσας επικοινωνίας μεταξύ των κλινικών ιατρών και των ακτινολόγων. Στο παρόν σύγγραμμα θα γίνει ιδιαίτερη μνεία στην ορολογία που χρησιμοποιείται για την ερμηνεία των ακτινολογικών εικόνων, με σκοπό την εξοικείωση των νεαρών ιατρών, ήδη από το προπτυχιακό επίπεδο, με τις ακτινολογικές εκθέσεις, ώστε να αποφεύγονται τυχόν παρερμηνείες.
Έμφαση θα δοθεί στις ερωτήσεις αυτοαξιολόγησης στο τέλος κάθε κεφαλαίου καθώς και στο τελικό κεφάλαιο (30 επιλεγμένα περιστατικά γυναικολογικών παθήσεων), όπου ο κάθε φοιτητής θα κληθεί να απαντήσει σε μια σειρά διαδραστικών ερωτήσεων που αφορούν συνήθεις παθολογικές ή και μη καταστάσεις της γυναικείας πυέλου
Σκοπός είναι διαβάζοντας το βιβλίο ο νεαρός φοιτητής, στο τέλος κάθε κεφαλαίου να εμπεδώσει ένα ουσιαστικό μήνυμα που θα του χρησιμεύσι στην καθημερινή κλινική πρακτική.

description: The growth of research in biomedical and biotechnological fields doesn't always align with the innovations and ethical considerations in bioethics, despite being a crucial aspect of their study and analysis. We frequently overlook the need for philosophical contemplation on various ethical dilemmas, including their methodologies and possible uses. Thus, this book is written for undergraduate and graduate students in life sciences, as well as those pursuing studies in philosophy and the broader social sciences. Its goal is to introduce students to the core challenges in bioethics, encouraging them to engage in critical analysis of the ethical issues within this applied discipline. These issues gain significant importance due to their potential impact on the biological substance of individuals. Firstly, a clarification is made of the fundamental concepts that constitute its core as well as its related areas. Following an introduction to the concept of “ethics”, the book will examine the specific areas of “bioethics”, exploring topics such as eugenics, euthanasia, cloning, abortion, and assisted reproductive cloning as therapeutic. Additionally, the social and legal aspects of these topics will be discussed. However, it's more engaging and valuable to critically reflect on and explore these issues rather than merely addressing them in a detached manner.

description: Software Engineering is a cross-disciplinary field of computer science. It potentially encompasses all areas of computer science, such as algorithms, programming, data structures, databases, computer networks, operating systems, security, user interface design, etc. It also includes elements from other engineering disciplines, such as quality assurance and project management. Finally, it is not only a theoretical subject, but is strongly related to the final result and cost of construction, which has a significant impact on the environment in which it is used. In this sense, Software Technology is similar to the management of large technical projects, which can only be carried out by engineers who understand all the individual areas of a project, as well as its creation and operating costs. The rapid development of computer science has created a huge need for software, which is now found in literally every modern device that incorporates some form of computer. However, software development continues to be a challenge, and failure to address this challenge often leads to large-scale project failures, with cost being only one of the consequences. At the same time, software is a powerful lever for growth that requires only investment in brains. In this context, a disciplined approach to software development is a major challenge that must be addressed by the thematic umbrella covering the multitude of cognitive subjects in information technology, known as "Software Technology." The proposed book, which is the evolution of a two-volume work originally written 12 years ago, aims to contribute to this disciplined approach.

description: The book presents the historical process of constitution (literature) and the limits of the central concept of dialogical art, presenting the architecture of dialogical artistic practices, the historical forms of dialogical aesthetics and ethics. It explores the philosophical and psychological social condition of dialogue in the subjective and intersubjective space, I-Thou, I-Self, I-Other, We-Them, in the collective artistic tactics (participation, collaboration, community based, relational) that have conceptually supported art forms oriented or based on dialogue. Space, performatively produced through developing dialogical relations of objects-bodies-places, has an impact on the subjects from which it is produced, producing these subjects themselves through their relationality. Performative dialogical space (-between) forms spatial /temporal structures of articulation and sharing of presence in common-and-distant places. The forms of dialog in real life are imbued in states of stasis-movement (like the parasite) in the forms of a localized networked itinerancy in dialogue. Presented horizontal collective models of art practices (collaborative, participatory, communitarian, relational) which can support intersubjective common places (not essentialist community constituting its identity in its difference with the Other) on the possibility of exchange and sharing of open-source communication (as alternatives to the monologic, monophonic artwork). -  Performative (DIY) bodily practices in art reconstruct the subject dialogically through temporary multiple fluid identities. - Interactive art interventions invent fragments of unstable fluid networked sites-in-motion and in sequence in public space while at parallel temporarily reconstruct identity.

description: Recent art critical practices raise new questions around the framework of the art system. Individual or collective creators with new methods and tactics pose questions and adopt alternative approaches, regarding the potential active roles in social space, related to the uses of art and the creative process into real life, as well as, regarding the ways of distribution of the artwork. The book investigates dialogical practices in arts as well as the theoretical principles and concepts on which these practices are structured. Dialogic practices involve broader fields in art that maintain horizontal non-hierarchical articulation, polyglot, open source, introducing newer tactics and technologies (tactical media) in combination with older practices (like activism, performance, hacking, bricolage). The term dialogical arts, more generally, surrounds the popular and widespread term interactive arts (about technologies in new media and hybrid arts), expanding at the same time the fields and the related tactics, practices and politics in arts.

description: Virtual worlds are three-dimensional synthetic environments on a computer in which multiple users appear as “avatars” (avatars) communicate with each other or with other synthetic entities, explore and interact with the environment, and construct new content. Today, they are the most widespread implementation of Virtual Reality theories and techniques and find various areas of application, such as education, training and simulation, culture, entertainment, and collaborative work. There are many available platforms and tools for developing Virtual Worlds, with significant differences in terms of available features and technical characteristics. An emerging environment is Open Simulator, which is based on the technology of the popular Second Life and is also a free and open source software product (FOSS), meaning that any user can install, configure, and manage their own Virtual World. The subject of this book is the latest developments, technologies, and applications of Virtual Worlds. The aim of the book is to provide the reader with: a) an understanding of the imaging, motion, and simulation technologies used by Virtual Worlds, b) an understanding of the methods and techniques of design, development, and evaluation, c) awareness of the most important areas of application and their specific requirements, d) training in the installation, management, and development of content in an Open Simulator environment. The book consists of two parts. The first part (Chapters 1-6) includes the theoretical section: technologies, development methods, and applications of VCs. The second part (Chapters 7-12) concerns learning the Open Simulator environment and the LSL/OSSL scripting language through the construction of complex interactive environments in various areas of application.

description: The field of the archaeology of Eastern Civilizations was introduced relatively recently at the University of Athens (in 2009 and onward) and is one of the compulsory courses within the Department of History and Archaeology. Unfortunately, there are very few books in Greek that focus on the ancient Near East. For this reason, I authored the book "Prehistoric Mesopotamia (ISBN: 978-960-354-330-5)," which covers the period between the 10th and 4th millennia BC and is available through the EUDOXUS system. Additionally, to cover the period between the 3rd millennium and early 1st millennium BC, I prepared the present book. By utilizing the format of an electronic textbook and incorporating the interactive elements mentioned in section B14, I hope that the book will make this new field of study more accessible to the Greek public. The book offers a concise introduction to the history and archaeology of the Near East (Anatolia, Levant, Egypt, Mesopotamia). It will primarily be aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate archaeology students, as well as members of the Greek Archaeological Service. However, it will also be useful to teachers and anyone from the general public who wishes to gain information on the subject.

description:
This textbook targets undergraduate and graduate university students enrolled in Computer Science, Computer Engineering and related programs. The subject of the book is in the forefront of computer technology, dealing with contemporary parallel / multicore computers which are nowadays the only type of computing systems available, be it general or special purpose.
The book tries to be self-contained. As such, it can also be useful to general readers, practitioners and professionals who have a working knowledge of computers and programming, but have not been exposed to the relatively new technology of parallelism.
The book aims to cover two facets of parallel, high-performance computer systems:
(1) Their organization and architecture.
The reader will be in position to recognize how such a system operates, how its constituent elements are interconnected, what are the basic problems architects and designers face, and what are the alternative solutions. In this frame, the book covers shared-memory systems, multicores and compute clusters.
(2) Their programming.
The most popular parallel programming models are presented and utilized. The book covers widely used programming models, such as POSIX threads and OpenMP for shared-address space programming, which is suited for multicore systems, and MPI for message passing, which is a must on clusters.

description: The coach in volleyball training aims, on the one hand, to improve team's play, teamwork and homogeneity of the game, and on the other hand, to develop and improve the abilities, the technical skills of each athlete individually, so that he\she can develop as a player. Therefore, the coach in each training should take into account the above-mentioned levels. To achieve this, the volleyball coach must not only be an expert in the specific exercises-drills required by the sport, but must also possess knowledge from other subjects of sports science such as physiology, nutrition, sports medicine, sports psychology etc. Usually coaches in difficult psychological situations that require immediate solutions in training or competition apply techniques they know from their sports or training experience, without following a set plan and without knowing exactly the advantages and disadvantages of their methods. What is missing in the field is a specific guide to use appropriate training methods according to the team category, the gender of athletes and the psychological techniques according to the situations that occur in the training or in competition. For this reason, indicative training plans are available at the end of the book so that any interested reader can easily use them.

Concepts in the science of memory

keywords: Memory Learning Neurobiology Brain

description: The book analyzes all the basic concepts used in the field of memory. The uniqueness of this handbook lies in its analysis of concepts covering all levels of organization of the phenomenon of memory, from the (traditional) level of behavior to the most modern concepts of neurobiology concerning cellular and network neural activity, as well as the molecular interactions in nerve cells that constitute the neurobiological basis of the phenomenon of memory. Various pathological conditions of memory functions are also included and analyzed. The following chapter titles are given as examples: Implicit Memory, Sensory Memory, Amnesia, Amygdala, Retrieval, Representation, Dementia, Calcium, Autobiographical Memory, Autobiographical Network, Experiential Memory, Short-Term Memory, Old Age, Declarative Memory, Learning and Fear Extinction, Active Memory, Cognitive and Memory Enhancers, Epimale, Hippocampus, Area Cells, Forgetfulness, Learning, Memory, Mnemonic Systems, Memory Imprint, Neurotransmitters, Alzheimer's Disease, Sharp Waves - Ripples, Consolidation, Hippocampal CA1 Field, Plasticity, Perspective Memory, Synapsis and Synaptic Transmission, NMDA Receptor. The decision to write a book in the form of an analysis of specific fundamental concepts in the broader field of memory functions stems precisely from the urgent need for a user-friendly and readily available handbook that introduces the reader directly to the concepts (from behavior to the molecular level), analyzing them briefly and comprehensively. There is a complete lack of similar works in the Greek-language literature.

Using the concept of group action on a set, Burnside's Theorem, the classical Sylow Theorems, and their applications are proven (for example, the simplicity of the alternating group An, for n equal to or greater than 5). The Class Equation is presented, and as an application, the maximum probability that two elements of a non-abelian group of order n will commute is determined. By introducing the concept of the direct product, finite abelian groups are classified. The Jordan-Hölder theory is developed, and as an application, concepts from the theory of solvable groups are presented. It is thoroughly proven that every group of order less than 60 is solvable. The textbook discusses the concept of group extension, the special case of the semidirect product, and as an application, it is shown that a group of order n is cyclic if and only if the numbers n and φ(n) (Euler's totient function) are coprime. Additionally, one chapter will refer to elementary group theory with an emphasis on the theory of symmetric groups Sn. Finally, a historical appendix will present elements of the classification of finite simple groups.

description: The textbook deals with modern postharvest physiology and technology of fruits and vegetables and consists of two main parts: (1) Postharvest physiology and handling of horticultural crops and (2) Applied postharvest technology. The introductory chapter refers to the production and importance of fruits and vegetables worldwide and in our country, as well as postharvest losses. In the first part, the classification of fruits and vegetables, the concept of quality, the main quality characteristics of horticultural crops, and the pre- and postharvest factors affecting them are presented. The main physiological parameters (e.g., respiration, water loss, ethylene, ripening and senescence, metabolic changes after harvesting, etc.) that affect the postharvest life and behavior of fruits and vegetables are described, as well as the recommended postharvest handling practices for tree fruits, vegetables, leafy vegetables, shoots, immature inflorescences, and underground organs, with detailed examples of representative species from each category. Additionally, the main postharvest physiological disorders are described, as well as chilling injury and chilling, while reference is made to the main postharvest diseases of fruits and vegetables. Regarding the application of postharvest technology, the principles of operations applied to maintain quality and extend the postharvest life of fresh fruits and vegetables are initially provided, followed by a detailed description of the technology used (e.g., precooling, de-greening, artificial ripening, dehydration, covering of products with edible or plastic membranes or wax, sorting, cleaning, packaging, preservation and storage methods, application of modified or controlled atmospheres, etc.). Finally, particular emphasis is placed on minimally processed fruits and vegetables.

description: Autobiography has a tendency to resist classification more stubbornly than other forms of creative writing, and is therefore well suited to exploring the points of contact between historiography and literary construction. Starting from the introductory questions of literary theory and historiography about "what is literature" and "what is history," the first chapter of the book examines types and models of autobiographical categorization, from conventional to modern, based on the existing literature and with reference to specific examples. The second chapter focuses on the memoirs of the fighters of 1821 as a writing practice that moves between literary and historical discourse, seeking to win over the reader. The third chapter examines bourgeois autobiography (e.g., Vikelas, Syngros), as well as its relationship with memoirs (e.g., Makrygiannis, Fotakos, Kasomoulis) and the short story in the context of the creation of the public sphere, while in the fourth chapter, the autobiographies of the banker Syngros and the writer Vikelas provide an opportunity to discuss the distinction between Greeks inside and outside Greece, as well as the fluidity of the concept of national identity in the 19th century. The fifth and sixth chapters discuss cases of marginal forms of autobiography after 1821, specifically focusing on gender in a series of women's autobiographies, and a series of autobiographical texts by Eptanisians, before and after the Union of the Ionian Islands with Greece, focusing on the center-periphery dichotomy. With regard to female autobiography, issues such as the formation of gender identities, the self-determination of the female subject and its relationship with other subjects, and its entry and exposure in the public sphere are explored. With regard to the regional Eptanisa, the formation of a distinct Eptanisa identity and its relationship with the national/Greek identity are explored. Each chapter corresponds to two or three teaching weeks.

The philosophy, in accordance with the principles of geriatrics, is to determine priorities during diagnosis/prognosis/rehabilitation and to maintain the therapeutic outcome. Decision-making and treatment planning aim to enhance function/comfort/aesthetics, in accordance with WHO recommendations. The book consists of 21 chapters. It begins by presenting the latest epidemiological data on the increase in the number of elderly people and their dental care needs. This is followed by a description of the physiology of the aging stomatognathic system and the basic principles of managing complex situations. In the context of natural tooth preservation, the clinical entities/diseases of the mouth (caries/periodontal disease/pulpal involvement) encountered in daily clinical practice are presented and treatment options are analyzed. With regard to the management of partial edentulism, modern complex dental restorations are presented. The strategic position and number of remaining teeth are evaluated. The preparation of the mouth in relation to the treatment options is analyzed. Regarding the management of total edentulism and restoration with complete dentures, protocols for modifying the construction are analyzed and alternative treatment techniques are presented. Options for implant-supported restorations are described, depending on the assessment of risk factors/systemic health. Special reference is made to chronic patients, patients with Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease due to their particularities and complications. Finally, preventive measures and maintenance care after treatment are described.

description: This book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students studying water resources systems and network management, as well as water network managers who wish to understand the relevant theoretical background. The textbook covers the integrated management of urban water supply networks, starting with the identification of problems in networks through the diagnosis of their symptoms, the investigation of their causes, and a general assessment of their level of operation. Extensive reference is made to existing methodologies for assessing the level of network operation, specifically Non-Revenue Water, its basic characteristics, and the causes that give rise to it. The Water Balance and Evaluation Indicators found in the literature are presented, as well as the modifications developed by the authors. All techniques developed to reduce Non-Revenue Water, targeting its individual components, namely apparent (or commercial/sales) and actual (or physical) losses, are also presented. Finally, all the computational tools used to evaluate urban water supply networks are presented, analyzed, and compared, along with examples of their application. Reference is made to legislation, specifically the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC). Finally, the integrated methodology for urban water supply network management is presented in the form of steps. For the most effective use of this book, examples and exercises are provided, as well as interactive material from presentations. The computational tools for assessing the level of operation of water supply networks and the decision support system developed within the WATERLOSS project to identify possible measures to reduce non-revenue water are presented and linked interactively.

description: Computational intelligence was initially defined as a set of three technologies comprising neural networks, fuzzy systems, and evolutionary computation. Later, additional technologies were proposed, e.g., decision support systems, machine learning, data mining, and various synergies between them. The broader field of Computational Intelligence focuses on the analysis and design of models for learning and/or generalization based on numerical data. Note that the learning process also raises the issue of information representation. Recent publications place Computational Intelligence at the core of cutting-edge technologies related to the processing of huge amounts of data, human-computer interaction, the Internet of Things, etc. [1]. Furthermore (ibid.), the need for a holistic view of the teaching of Computational Intelligence (rather than the fragmented views proposed by individual technologies) is supported, with an emphasis not only on practical applications but also on basic knowledge. The purpose of this book is to introduce readers to the scientific field of Computational Intelligence with a view to applications in emerging technologies. The presentation is structured around models and algorithms. The appendices of this book provide software for implementing algorithms in MATLAB, as well as examples of practical applications. Extensive and audiovisual comments by the authors aim to motivate further study, starting from the selected bibliography provided at the end of each chapter. Extended Computational Intelligence is one part of the holistic approach proposed here. The other part concerns the integration of analysis and design in Computational Intelligence through a unified representation of information based on mathematical lattice theory. [1] M. M.

description: The stability control of underground openings requires knowledge of the natural and induced stress field, the mechanical behavior of the surrounding rock, and the response of the measures taken to support them. Support measures widely used in conventional construction of both longitudinal and spatial underground openings are grouting, steel frames, concrete lining, and advance elements. These interact with the surrounding rock after installation. Since hard, soft, or crushing soil around underground longitudinal openings behaves macroscopically as a continuous medium, the assessment of the stress state is achieved by considering its interaction with the support. The behavior is assessed and, based on this, the support measures are selected and, where appropriate, displacements, overload or relaxation zones, the suitability of the cross-section shape, and the required and available support force with the stages of its application are calculated. If the rock behaves as a discontinuous medium, failure mechanisms are assessed. The following possibilities are identified: fall-sliding of individual blocks formed by combined joint systems in fragmented rocks, sliding-separation between layers formed by the distinct parallel layers commonly found in sedimentary rocks, or rock sliding-ejection in the particularly sensitive area of the tunnel face, due to discontinuous structures or overloading. Calculation methods and diagrams for estimating the required support are provided. Finally, specific stabilization measures applied in conventional underground mining are presented, such as natural rock support for mining with chambers and pillars, artificial support by filling empty faces for exploitation with alternating cuts and fillings, and hydraulic support for exploitation with long faces. Consolidation is achieved by selecting appropriate measures.

description: This book aims to explore the role of cultural parameters in the political process. It examines political socialization as a process of shaping political attitudes, perceptions, and behavior, and as a component of the reproduction and transformation of a society's political culture. The focus is on the Greek socio-political reality, the historical factors that have influenced the formation of Greek political culture, and its contemporary expressions. Initially, a theoretical framework for analysis is proposed, with a critical presentation of the classical literature on the two concepts that constitute its subject matter, as well as other conceptual tools that are at the centre of any relevant discussion, such as political attitudes, perceptions and values, political generation, etc. Next, a problematic for Greek political culture and the history of the formation of its contradictory and diverse character is presented, culminating in its evolution since the Metapolitefsi and with an emphasis on the conditions of the crisis.The discussion focuses on both stable and current expressions of Greek political culture, based on empirical research. The last part refers to aspects of political socialization and the evolution of the political physiognomy of young people in Greece from the Metapolitefsi to the present day, with references to broader trends in the value systems of young people in Europe.With the help of empirical data, the change in political attitudes and perceptions is investigated, with the aim of developing a critique of the connection between the political socialization of the younger generation and the reproduction and transformation of (Greek) political culture. The book includes an introduction to the topic, conclusions summarizing findings and central hypotheses, the necessary tables and graphs, and an extensive bibliography.

description: In the teacher-student relationship, the quality of communication holds a particularly important role. Among music students, a phenomenon of “psychosomatic imitation” of the teacher is often observed: the student’s body language, posture, emotional expression, cognitive understanding, and overall musical performance resemble a “reprint” of the teacher’s playing style, whether of good or poor quality, as well as their general relationship with music and their instrument. This likely occurs because there is limited training in communication within music pedagogy, resulting in teachers often conducting lessons in an imitative manner, drawing from personal experiences and often overlooking the unique nature of each student. This raises questions such as: Who is the student? What is their truth? How can they advance in personal growth? For these reasons, a new approach called Co.M.P.A.S.S. (Communication Music Processes Awareness Strategies and Solutions) was developed by Psaltopoulou, Zafranas, and Kaminis in 2014. This innovative approach emerged from qualitative research aiming to transfer psychoanalytic concepts into a teaching framework, specifically using Jacques Lacan's four types of discourse. The primary objective of the study was to explore and categorize the verbal and non-verbal communication types used in the interactive teacher- student relationship in piano lessons. Furthermore, the study investigated how awareness of the quality of communicative discourse influences the cognitive, emotional, and overall development of the student’s relationship with the teacher, music, and the instrument. This interdisciplinary breakthrough connects music pedagogy, communication, music therapy, and psychoanalysis, offering a wide field of immediate applications and international recognition.

Particular emphasis is placed on understanding the arts through their history, i.e., critically examining the theoretical issues underlying the works and commenting on them as vehicles of the artistic process. The characteristic features of each period, the basic characteristics of the art of different periods or even different movements precede the presentation of the works and the particularities of each section. Each chapter concludes with a description and analysis of works, which are proposed as a summary of each section but also as an opportunity for discussion and collective reflection. A significant part of the book refers to and compares the corresponding expressions of the arts in Greece.

description: This book deals with issues related to the combined operation of energy conversion machines. The introductory chapter provides definitions of basic quantities involved in the study of energy systems and, more generally, in energy conversion, such as primary and final energy, total average and instantaneous efficiency of energy engines and systems, etc. It also defines and examines the two basic interconnections of combined operation of energy machines: series connection and parallel connection, for which relationships and basic principles are developed that apply and determine key characteristics of the overall energy system (e.g., overall efficiency, total output and input power, etc.). The book then goes on to examine in detail basic and specific energy systems for centralized or decentralized production, which concern the two main forms of energy consumed by human activities: electricity and heat. Thus, topics such as the following will be examined: conventional electric power systems from thermoelectric power plants (system composition, unit integration, system stability and safety, operating rules, etc.) · integration of non-guaranteed production units, mainly Renewable Energy Source (RES) technologies, into electricity systems; hybrid RES power stations for electricity or heat production, small and large, optimization of their dimensioning with different criteria (economic or energy) for centralized or decentralized production (e.g., applications in the building sector); cogeneration of electricity and heat. As can be seen, the book aims to present basic and directly applicable methods for optimizing the dimensioning of energy systems and to compare their operation with conventional technologies for large- and small-scale electricity or heat production.

description: The textbook includes a comprehensive methodological framework, including applications, for evaluating the performance of urban transport systems and monitoring the quality of transport services provided. It begins with a detailed presentation of the subject covered by the book, the necessity of the evaluation process, and its contribution to improving the services provided to passengers. International trends and indicative applications are briefly examined. The main part of the book covers the methodology and is divided into two main sections: the first concerns the quantitative evaluation of the performance and efficiency of urban mass transport systems, and the second concerns the quality control of transport services. Both sections include methods and techniques for data collection and analysis, as well as examples of the application of similar methodologies in Greece. The last chapter includes additional topics related to the evaluation and quality control of transport systems and services, such as performance-based contracts, the use of new technologies in evaluation, and the benefits of its implementation. The textbook is structured in such a way as to follow the teaching process and topics of the courses to be implemented. In particular, the introduction of the book aims to familiarize students with the subject and its necessity through a simple presentation with examples. The two methodologies are then presented in a detailed and understandable way, using diagrams and tables, while examples from Greece contribute to practical applications and exercises that take place during the courses. Finally, the additional special topics in the last chapter complete the students' knowledge of the subject of assessment and contribute to the preparation of relevant theses.

description: Two programming paradigms are presented in the book, quite different from procedural programming. We discuss logic programming and functional programming, two problem solving methodologies which, although quite different from each other, share the common characteristic of supporting a declarative way of programming. These methodologies are applied in practice through specific programming languages, but at the same time, they also have strict theoretical foundations. Initially, the concept of declarative programming is introduced and contrasted with procedural programming, mainly through examples of solving specific problems. Subsequently, an introductory description of the philosophy of logic programming is given, and the logic programming language Prolog is presented as a typical representative of this philosophy. A brief reference is made to issues related to the implementation of Prolog systems, topics concerning the capabilities of parallel processing in Prolog programming environments are discussed, and the concept of constraints in logic programming is introduced. Elements from first-order logic, which is the mathematical background of logic programming, are provided, and various approaches to studying the semantics of logic programs are presented at a relatively high level. In the next part of the book, the second declarative programming methodology, that of functional programming, is introduced, and a representative functional programming language, Haskell, is presented. Finally, some topics related to the theoretical background of functional programming, such as lambda calculus and combinators, are touched upon, as well as others related to the implementation techniques of functional programming languages, such as reduction orders and graph reduction.

description: The proposed textbook deals with the entirety of non-destructive testing (NDT) methods, which are experimental techniques and methodologies aimed at studying the properties of materials and structures/constructions without causing damage. The data from non-destructive characterization are utilized for assessing the structural integrity and quality of materials and constructions. Monitoring the healthy operation of a material or a structure aims to evaluate the wear (aging) of the material or construction in real-time, during mechanical or environmental stress. Quality control and monitoring of healthy operation, based on non-destructive characterization with high reliability methods, are now an integral part of a wide range of technological applications (including terrestrial, maritime, aerospace, and space transportation, structural works, nuclear technology, recycling, environmental sustainability, etc.). It is noted that, although there are foreign-language books covering this subject to a greater or lesser extent, there is no corresponding textbook in Greek. This gap will be filled by the proposed textbook. Its thematic content includes fundamental knowledge for the entire spectrum of non-destructive testing techniques and specific cases (case studies) that demonstrate the application of these techniques in real damage assessments of materials and constructions. Specifically, methods such as ultrasonics, acoustic emission, infrared thermography, radiography, penetrant and visual inspection, magnetic particles, eddy currents, etc., will be discussed, while detailed specialized cases will be presented based on the authors' rich experience.

description: The goal of this textbook is twofold: a) to introduce undergraduate students to the basic parameters of the study of ancient Greek pottery with an emphasis on the examination of shapes, technique, and repertory of Attic vases of the Archaic and Classical periods, and b) to analyze the Thracian iconography through selected Attic vases decorated with themes that reflect the interactions between Athens and Thrace. This approach offers a new model for studying ancient Thrace, giving the opportunity to students on one hand to familiarize themselves with Attic pottery vase-painting and on the other to explore the Thracian mythological cycle and the historical and social context of Athens and Thrace. The textbook does not follow a single art-historical methodology but takes into account questions of trade and cultural relations between the two areas, aiming to outline the frame in which Thracian iconography developed. Therefore, the textbook is appropriate for more advanced readers, as well, such as MA students, instructors, and for English-speaking programs, thanks to the extended English summaries accompanying every chapter. The book consists of seven chapters: the first two discuss the importance of pottery in the study of ancient Greece and particularly the role of Attic vases (ch. 1-2); then follows an in-depth analysis of the interrelations between Athens and Thrace through the study of select Attic vases with Thracian iconography (ch. 3) and an overview of Attic vases in Thrace (ch. 4); ch, 5 offers a summary on the significance of Attic pottery to the study of ancient Thrace, while ch. 6 provides a glimpse to the metal vases from ancient Thrace and their relation to Attic vessels. Ch. 7 includes various exercises that help improve the understanding and study of students.

description: This textbook serves as the primary aid for the course "Body Composition" within the curriculum of the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics. The main objective of the course/textbook is to solidify the principles underlying the major methods of measuring human body composition and to understand their advantages and disadvantages, as well as the proper selection of the appropriate method for each clinical case. For example, a graduate who will work in a hospital, where certain methods may be available, should be able to make the appropriate method choice, taking into account the patient's condition, the purpose of the measurement, accuracy, etc. Additionally, students practice on practical problems of estimating body composition (e.g., fat percentage, muscle mass, hydration, etc.) using various measurement data of body composition. Among the many applications of body composition measurement, we can mention determining the patient's health risk associated with excessively low or high fat levels, monitoring changes in body composition associated with certain diseases, evaluating the effectiveness of diet and exercise programs in improving the patient's body composition, assessing ideal body mass for specific individuals and athletes, documenting necessary dietary guidelines, monitoring the development and maturation of children's body composition, and more. The estimation of Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is a key priority for a dietitian and is achieved through the measurement of fat-free mass using body composition equations or through the patient's spirometry. All these topics are covered in the proposed book, as well as real-life examples of applying various methods. Apart from the first chapter, each subsequent chapter focuses on a category of methods.

description: This book is an Anthology of a neglected period (from the point of view of literature and indeed poetry), the Late Antiquity. It included specimens from the poetic output beginning with Oppian of Cilicia in the 2nd century AD until George of Pisidia c. AD 630 (but without him, as he is considered to be the first Byzantine poet). In other words, it covers the period from the end of 'classical' philology until the beginning of byzantine philology. In the Introduction the historical, religious, cultural and educational background is discussed, without the knowledge of which the comprehesion of literature at this period is impossible. Texts include specimens from all important genres cultivated at this period presented according to modern theory which is significantly different from what was established some twenty years ago. Texts will be followed by commentaries elucidating them from many different angles (see the analysis according to each chapter). The book continually focuses on contexts, on the interaction of literature and art, literature and science, literature and philosophy (Neoplatonism, theurgic and theoretical), literature and religion (the osmosis of Christianity and 'paganism').

description: This textbook consists of two parts. The first part deals with the teaching of the main theoretical equations of environmental fluid mechanics. It thoroughly analyzes the main mathematical equations used to simulate environmental flows (Navier-Stokes continuity equation, depth-integrated continuity equation, laterally integrated continuity and motion equations, pollutant transport and diffusion equation, subsurface flow equations), while the empirical equations for estimating the turbulent viscosity and turbulent diffusion coefficients are determined. The methodology for solving the above equations using the finite difference and control volume techniques is analyzed, and a series of exercises and problems are presented. The second part presents applied environmental flows and the processes of pollutant transport and diffusion in them. In particular, the processes and simulation of pollutant transport and diffusion phenomena in one-dimensional flows (e.g. channels, streams, rivers), two-dimensional flows (lakes, reservoirs, river mouths, coastal systems) and three-dimensional flows (open sea). In addition, the textbook deals with the study of the behavior of submarine veins and plumes that develop in the coastal zone, and deals with the optimal design of such projects in order to achieve the reduction of environmental impacts. Finally, examples of simulation and management of groundwater resources are presented. The methodology for discretizing the computational domain, the process of simplifying three-dimensional theoretical equations through assumptions, the application of initial and boundary conditions, and the possibility of interconnecting the model with other models of broader flow are examined. Each chapter presents applications developed by the authors and applied to existing water systems.

description: In recent years, the international scientific community has shown particular interest in three-dimensional cadastral surveys to visualize the complexity of contemporary urban landscapes, mainly concerning overlapping constructions and complex property rights. The shift towards the third dimension is significantly supported by current technological advancements in modeling, while lately, temporal and scale dimensions have been incorporated into cadastral planning. Despite dynamic technological progress, the international experience lacks a fully functional 3D cadastre and is confined to experiments and basic applications. Research in 3D cadastral systems is delimited by the legal, technical, and administrative framework of each country, which entails specific needs, constraints, and possibilities for 3D cadastral records. Within this context, the proposal aims to document and assess developments in 3D/nD models and database management systems and cadastral surveys through a review of international experiences. Simultaneously, it presents the situation in Greece, focusing on the peculiarities and needs of recording, managing, and visualizing 3D space, with reference to the progress and characteristics of the National Cadastre compilation project, the current cadastral model, and the prospects for its adaptation to international standards and requirements.
