description: This textbook is the result of many years of teaching Medical Chemistry. Its main objective is the in-depth study of selected topics of General, Physical, Organic and Bio-organic Chemistry in order to form a solid chemical background, a general base of knowledge and concepts necessary, for the understanding and assimilation of the basics for medical and biomedical specialities courses in Biochemistry, Physiology, Pharmacology, Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine. This book offers an alternative approach to the study of the course material and to the creative learning through focused and specific questions as well as analytical responses,  suggesting a specific study plan.  In the sections of the textbook, a chemical background is first formed and then its value for the interpretation of biomedical phenomena and applications is demonstrated. For example, the periodic table is analyzed from a Medicine point of view, distinguishing the basic and trace elements of the human body, elements toxic to the human body (heavy metals). Similarly, the following suggestion concerning complex therapy and the treatment of mineral poisoning is based on the new, for students, knowledge of coordination compounds.

description: This textbook, which is aimed primarily at postgraduate students of pedagogical departments, presents specific forms of research in Science Education and Museology of Natural Sciences. Its content complements, updates and deepens the theoretical reflection and methodological approaches of two other books which appear in this book as a prerequisite knowledge: the "Issues of Natural Sciences. The construction of the school knowledge" and "The didactic approach of the museum of natural sciences". The textbook consists of eleven chapters divided into three thematic sections. The first section ("Teaching the natural sciences and students’ thinking") includes chapters that explore the epistemological background, the psychological dimension and the implications for the teaching of students' causal thinking, and especially the version of linear causal reasoning, a kind of reasoning which is a basic form of meaning rendering in the natural world from the youngest ages. The second section ("The cultural dimension of scientific knowledge in teaching") deals with the cultural character of the content of scientific knowledge which appears through the relationships formed between this content and history, philosophy, technology, art, and society in general. The third section ("Non-formal education in the natural sciences") focuses on research conducted in the context of non-formal education in the natural sciences, a research that presents interdisciplinary characteristics, since it is contacted in the intersection of at least three research fields, which are the Science Education, the Scientific Museology and the Science Communication.

keywords: Methodology for designing a Teaching Scenario

uk: Педагогічні науки

uk: Право, економіка та суспільні науки

description: A methodological proposal that responds to the demands of modern education is the so-called "Teaching Scenarios" (TS), since they create conditions for students' engagement with issues that interest them, encourage them to search answers to questions and problem solving, while at the same time familiarize them with cooperation and group discussions. This digital book addresses the pedagogical issues arising from Digital Media supported Teaching Scenarios (DMTS). It attempts to introduce readers to the logic of the Teaching Scenario from its conception, planning and implementation, up to its evaluation. The authors attempt to combine traditional teaching methods with modern connectivist theories that utilize the services of Web 2.0 and 3.0 considering that the development of a Teaching Scenario in the modern technologically enriched environment is a fascinating search and at the same time an intellectual adventure. In fact, the authors of the present project favor the development of Teaching Scenarios with the use of Digital Media, combining the advantages of the methodological approach of the TS with the parallel empowerment of students’ digital knowledge and skills. This particular combination can be an excellent exercise for today's students in relation to their future activity, both in the scientific and the wider professional field. The authors, being aware of the constantly changing educational environment and their personal limitations, attempt to provide a trigger, an occasion, the pretext and a justification to teachers of all educational levels, to participate in the creative process of developing Teaching Scenarios. Finally, the authors’ desire is to contribute to the pedagogical utilisation of Digital Media in the design and implementation of effective teaching.

It tries to deal with this subject in a way that is strongly didactic, oriented to the needs of these departments, trying to highlight mainly the analysis part of the subject under consideration, avoiding (where possible) axiomatic foundations and proofs that are not considered necessary. Instead, it puts its emphasis on the understanding of these objects by constantly referring to issues that have already been addressed many times by the students of this semester.

description: In this undergraduate textbook, a brief presentation of the operation of languages translators in general and of programming language compilers in particular is attempted at first. Then, in Chapter 2, regular languages and the grammars that describe them are introduced with a focus on describing regular languages through regular definitions. In Chapter 3, the basic concepts of lexical analysis and the best-known techniques for constructing lexical analyzers are described. In Chapter 4, context-free grammars and top-down and bottom-up methods of syntactic analysis are presented. Chapter 5 describes semantic analysis, and in particular how static type checks can be implemented, while Chapter 6 deals with the role of the symbol table in the context of the different phases of compilation as well as its organization and implementation. Chapter 7 presents the intermediate code generation phase, with the different forms of intermediate representation, the presentation of intermediate languages, and the use of schemes for translation into a three-address language. This is followed by Chapter 8, in which the optimization of intermediate code is presented. Chapter 9 deals with the two phases of the compiler's back end, that is, generating and optimizing the final code. Appendices follow where the speech of an exemplary work for the laboratory of the course and exemplary answers to the requirements is presented.

description: In the Greek educational reality, on the one hand, teachers consider that the use and creation of their own videos is an important educational tool, while on the other hand, their use is very little. In this book, which is the fruit of research, teaching and actions of recent years, and contains individual texts, which were created for the needs of university education at the level of undergraduate, postgraduate and post-doctoral studies, an attempt is made to develop skills that will allow teachers to utilize videos in any form of training, live, blended or online. The structure of the book, which consists of three parts, reflects the way in which the topic of film and video in education is approached. In the first part, the film is approached as a cultural asset, its educational use is shown and the way of its analysis is captured so that it can be a teaching material, according to the curriculum. In the second part, the film is approached as an educational medium focusing on ways of its educational use at school. It is explained how the teacher, from a user, will be able to become the creator of instructional videos himself, in order to use them in teaching or in an educational channel that he will create or in a series of online courses, open to students. Finally, the third part presents digital tools for recording, editing, enriching and publishing videos, together with an indicative activity of exploiting their capabilities. These tools, when used by teachers, can improve the educational value of the final videos, making them even more effective when using them in educational practice.

description:
This book, entitled “Risk management for the preservation of cultural heritage: The ABC method”, discusses the risk management process in cultural heritage and presents in detail the ABC risk management method. The ABC method was developed between 2006 and 2012 and is the product of collaboration of CCI (Canadian Conservation Institute), ICCROM (International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property) and RCE (Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel Erfgoed).
The book refers to all kinds of cultural assets and expands with examples such as the applicability of the ABC method to archives and libraries, drawing from the author’s 20 years long experience as a professional conservator and preservation manager at the Greek State Archives.
Risk management is a comprehensive and modern approach to cultural heritage preservation, and has developed explosively in the last 20 years. It involves the survey of a cultural asset (simple, composite, movable, monument, building, a combination of the above), aiming at the identification, analysis, quantification, evaluation and treatment of the risks that threaten it.
Due to its great importance, the topic or risk management is included in the curriculum of the post graduate program “Information management in Libraries, Archives and Museums” of the Department of Archival, Library & Information Studies, University of West Attica.
This book, in addition to being a complete scientific report on risk management in cultural heritage, it constitutes a practical guide for the implementation of the ABC method. It begins with an introduction to the concepts of cultural heritage and risk management, followed by a critical literature review of the most important risk management methods, concluding that the ABC method is the most comprehensive, mature and practically applicable method available (Part A, chapters 1 and 2). The method and its implementation is presented step by step in the following second part of the book (Part B, chapters 3 to 8). Important concepts for the understanding of the implementation of the methods are discussed, such as the frameworks that aid the researcher to identify, analyze, quantify, evaluate and treat the risks (the ten agents of deterioration, the three types of risk occurrence, the five stages of control, the six layers around the heritage asset, and the three sources of knowledge). Finally, in Part C (chapters 9 to 17), the ten agents of deterioration are discussed in some detail.
The second part of the book (chapters 3 to 8) presenting the implementation of the ABC method is based on the translation and adaptation (with permission from the authors and the organization) of the book by Stefan Michalski and Jose Luiz Pedersoli Jr (2016), The ABC Method: a risk management approach to the preservation of cultural heritage, Canadian Conservation Institute (https://www.iccrom.org/publication/abc-method-risk-management-approach-preservation-cultural-heritage).
Information are also drawn from the book by AW Brokerhof, HA Ankersmit και FJ Ligterink (2017), Risk management for collections. Amersfoort, Rijksdienst voor het Cultureel Erfgoed (https://www.cultureelerfgoed.nl/publicaties/publicaties /2017/01/01/risk-management-for-collections).
The third part if the book, entitled “The ten agents of deterioration” is mainly based on the translation and adaptation of excerpts (with permission from the authors) on the above mentioned book.

description:
The book "Socialization. The contribution of socialization to social man’s formation" focuses on socialization as a process very essential for man, from his already embryonic state, for the formation and development of his personality. It is the process through which man becomes human, that is he acquires and develops qualities that determine his human existence.
This book contributes to the understanding of the human social personality and how it is shaped through various factors and actors, such as heredity and the social environment in which man develops. The social environment includes the family with its influences, such as social origin, educational level, the position of the individual within the family, cultural level, economic level, place of residence, language used by the family, spiritual atmosphere etc., but also the school with the social climate of the classroom, the socialization of the teacher, the curriculum, the friendships and social networks with their culture (knowledge, attitudes, values, skills, etc.), the subculture or counterculture they adopt and promote etc. However, a general mapping of the field is attempted in terms of the various socialization agents, as this study focuses to the basic socialization agents, the family and the school.
At the same time, we try to examine socialization with reference to social and global problems, such as the issue of education and global knowledge in modern society, the ecological disaster, the new inequalities arising from the development of Information and Communication Technology and the digital divide, the issue of violence and aggression at school, as examples of the influence of social conditions on the socialization of the young individual.

description: Dental implants have been an established treatment option for partially and completely edentulous patients for decades. In the first years of their clinical use, the theoretical background on osseointegration and implant prosthodontics was covered by textbooks that have been characterized as “classical”, and any further research results were reported in scientific papers. During the years, the continuing introduction of new prosthetic components and treatment options has led to evolution in Implant Prosthodontics. Clinicians are informed on these innovations from research papers but each of them is focused on a specific topic or technique. The purpose of this book is to offer a thorough introduction to current Implant Prosthodontics, combining theory and practice in an easy-to-read manner. In each chapter the needed theoretical background and principles are reported, and the techniques are presented with clinical examples in step-by-step manner. The aim is to guide the dentist in his practice combining the needed knowledge with the clinical application and relevance. For this reason, it can be characterized as “A case-based Clinical Guide”. On the other side, clinicians are always concerned about the stages or steps in each technique and for this reason, emphasis has been given to the detailed description of each case with critical discussion on the selection of each specific treatment option. The content of this book is divided in 9 chapters that cover the whole clinical procedure for an implant restoration, from the presurgical evaluation to the fabrication and delivery. The chapters include the needed diagnostic elements for the treatment planning, the design and fabrication of radiographic and surgical guides, the impression techniques, the use of intra-oral scanning, an overview of cement- and screw retained restorations, the digital workflow in implant restorations and the principles for selection and fabrication of implant overdentures.

description:
It is not difficult to provide a (mainly descriptive) definition of Business Excellence, as several researchers have come up with different ones. The dimensions, content and essence of excellence, in principle, are difficult to be summarized in a single-meaning (or even multi-meaning) definition. It is a way of thinking and a philosophical system, and as such, undergoes an evolutionary process that continuously and dynamically shapes its content and form. Nevertheless, for the economy of the discussion, a definition of the concept is given: "Excellent is the organization that tries to satisfy all those involved in its operations, customers, suppliers, people, partners, society, etc., through what it achieves, the way it achieves it and based on what it aims to achieve".
The new globalized economy has created a different reality in the corporate landscape. Technology itself can no longer give them what they need to increase their performance. Intangible factors are not taken seriously even though they play an important role in performance and sustainability. Human resource management can become the driving force for an organization. Hence, if it tries to change its culture and invest in its people by training, motivating and inspiring them, then it is on a good track on its way to excellence.
This book examines the evolution of Business Excellence, its dimensions and international assessment frameworks. In addition, the cost of quality, quality measurement tools and quality management systems are examined. Moreover, the relationship of BE with innovation, corporate social responsibility and knowledge management is analyzed. Finally, the book closes by examining the extent to which the financial crisis of the last decade has affected the quality of businesses in Greece.

The present textbook is the first part of the two-volume textbook with general title Music in Italy from medieval times to the 21st century and subtitled Middle Ages, Renaissance, Baroque, while the second volume with the subtitle From the Classical period to the 21st century covers music creation from the opening decades of the 18th century to the present day. The volume offers a historical, social, and cultural perspective of the musical developments in the Italian peninsula, from the first Christian centuries to the Baroque period. The historical narrative traces the paths of early Christian practices in order to approach and interpret the enormous body of religious melodies that subsequently formed the basis of western European music. The textbook explores the full gamut of musical activity, from ecclesiastic and devotional practices to courtly musical entertainment. Italian music during the Renaissance is viewed through the double prism of the influence of the Franco-Flemish School of composers, who shaped the polyphonic language and the main musical genres of the 15th and 16th centuries, and of the impact of Humanism on art and literature.
The aesthetic, philosophical, and artistic explorations that took place in important italian centers (Florence, Rome, Venice, Ferrara, etc.) during the 16th century affected decisively the musical developments, culminating to the new genre of opera that quickly brought Italy to the epicenter of western musical culture. The third part of the volume (the baroque period) explores the genre of opera and its sacred counterpart, the oratorio, along with new instrumental genres (the concerto, the trio sonata, etc.), which grew partly as a result of the flourishing Italian instrument-making workshops and the rigorous music printing activity.

description:
Each year, human draws from the environment more and more energy and water resources, raw materials and goods, in the framework of a growing and more demanding world. At the same time, the marine ecosystem is burdened every year more and more by anthropogenic activities, and their consequences are expected to limit the available natural resources in future. At the same time, the growing trend of extracting and processing oil and natural gas from marine areas requires modern sea transport procedures through which these products will be stored and transported to the consumer- countries. Trade in goods by ship is still the main mode of transport for international trade, since over 80% of world trade is carried out by sea. The aforementioned trend in maritime transport must be done in safe conditions for the marine and coastal environment and without disturbing the balance of its aquatic ecosystems.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has focused on many environmental issues, with the result that this policy causes corresponding developments in shipping issues. In this context, shipping is entering a new era, in which navigation and general transport management processes are increasingly automated. However, there are several concerns about how easy it is to combine all of the above, i.e. protecting the environment, not accelerating climate change, developments in technology, the possibility of rapid assimilation of new technologies by seafarers, etc. Realizing the difficulties of situation, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) try to standardize the products and services used by users (shippers) using uniform procedures and standards (Standards). The above standardization makes use of the already acquired experience and knowledge of the parties involved in shipping and aims to provide directions, so that states can achieve the greatest possible uniformity in the issued nautical charts and other maritime publications.

description: This book is an attempt to establish a holistic theoretical and methodological approach in the field of exhibition design, whether it is developed within the institutional and spatial boundaries of a permanent museum institution or not. The whole approach is based on the assumption that an exhibition is a multimedial and multimodal narrative tool. Thus, first of all, we examine how the fundamental principles of narratology can offer an alternative perspective on the process of creating an exhibition. Then, the individual narrative tools that can be used in an exhibition are analyzed theoretically and methodologically: the static and the cinematic image, the sound and the text. The approach of each tool is based on the combination of specialised literature related to this tool, with the relevant discussion that has been developed in the field of exhibitions. Although the separate approach of each narrative tool was deemed appropriate to delve into its particular features, potential and limitations, each chapter makes particular reference to the way in which it will ultimately work with the rest to produce a unified narrative whole. Thus, special importance is given to how all the above are composed within a specific spatial environment, which is the main narrative canvas, as is the case in a modern theatrical scenography.

description: The purpose of the book is to assist, mostly undergraduate, students, with issues arising in choosing and conducting statistical analyses using two statistical software, SPSS, and EVIEWS. The necessary theory is covered and a step-by-step guide on how to perform various statistical analyses is presented. The material covers, in a condensed way, introductory but fundamental principles and concepts of statistics that are useful for an undergraduate student. Starting with a short introduction, the book proceeds with a description of the aforementioned statistical software. Then, various statistical tools are briefly presented, both in theory, and how to apply them using statistical software. The range of the tools is quite diverse and addresses students who want to learn more about the field of statistics and econometrics. For instance, visualization of variables, parametric and non-parametric hypothesis testing (normality, correlation, dependence, means etc.) are presented. Emphasis is given in regression, simple and multiple, while more advanced techniques are mentioned, such as logistic regression and discriminant analysis. To facilitate the acquaintance of students with the English terminology an English-Greek dictionary of statistical terms lies at the end of the book.

description: Despite the fact that they have been neglected from educational and political bodies throughout the years, multigrade schools remain a reality on an international level, mainly because of the special geomorphological conditions of the areas in which they exist. Furthermore, their presence is predicted to intense in the future as well. Children with a wide range of ages, skills and abilities, interests, maturity levels and needs coexist in these schools. The organization of small schools, considering many factors, is thought to be necessary. in order to deal  with the difficulties that arise, as a result of the organizational and functional conditions of Small schools, to be confronted, Moreover the work of teachers has to be made easier and a high quality education for their students has to be assured.. The main subject of this paper is to present the different ways students can work in multigrade schools. It is supported by a number of points regarding the preparation and planning of a lesson, which focus on issues such as dealing with the teaching time that is available, classroom organization and other factors that are basic for the support of the teaching and learning procedures.

This textbook is addressed to undergraduate students of Library Science and Archives faculties as well as to related departments who have courses in documentation and catalogue/register/ bibliography creation etc. It is also addressed to employees of relevant institutions such as libraries and archives of the public and private sector, museums, documentation centers, bibliographic and publishing organizations and information institutions in general. It reflects the developments concerning the creation of catalogues in a digital environment, the new cataloguing rules that have emerged as a result of the potential of the semantic web and the technologies that support the description of information resources. It presents the possibilities of integrating old and new systems and the dynamics of standardization by presenting the most advanced international standards in this field. It includes a presentation of the context for the development and evolution of catalogues, the use and utility of specific processes in the digital realm and a presentation of standards.
It is also a guide to the implementation and development of catalogues based on the latest international standards (i.e. RDA) and the international guidelines that govern them. In this respect, we believe that the proposed text will also serve as a reference work when applied both in the context of academic studies and in the professional field. It is noted that this textbook can be a key tool for all cataloguing issues as it covers the main new rules in detail, including both the original documentation of the guidelines and examples of implementation. In addition to the new cataloging rules, a detailed presentation of the standards used by the automated systems of information organizations is given, making the manual fully applicable to any automated cataloging environment. Therefore, students as well as graduates of the aforementioned departments will have in their hands a comprehensive text on both theoretical and practical level.

description: The purpose of this book is to introduce the concepts and methods required to address Geometric Modeling problems. It first provides an introduction to Affine Geometry, giving the basic concepts and results on the affine spaces, the affine maps, as well as some classical theorems. Then this material is used for the presentation of polynomial curves and surfaces (Bézier form, B-spline curves and surfaces, interpolation curves, etc.), which are basic tools of Geometric Modelling. The approach chosen for the presentation of these topics is known as “blossoming” and is based on the use of polar forms, which lead naturally to the description of polynomial curves and surfaces with the help of their control points. This book is addressed to Mathematicians, Engineers, and Computer Scientists, who wish to familiarize themselves and study in depth basic tools of Geometric Modelling.

description:
The aim of this book is the study of the electric and magnetic field in static and time-dependent physical systems. Most of the book is devoted to describing the various forms of Maxwell's equations and developing techniques for solving them and finding the electric and magnetic fields resulting from given charge distributions and boundary/initial conditions. For example, introducing the scalar and vector potential is a useful technique for solving Maxwell's equations.
In the introductory mathematical part of the book (chapter 1) there is a review of basic concepts of vector analysis necessary to describe the vector functions corresponding to the electric and magnetic fields, as well as the corresponding integral and differential equations by solving which these fields can arise.
In the first part of the book (chapters 2-7) static physical systems are studied and methods for calculating electromagnetic fields in these systems are developed. In the second part of the book (chapters 8-15) the complete formalization of Maxwell's equations in time-dependent systems is introduced where the correlation and integration of the electric field with the magnetic field becomes apparent since a changing electric field can cause a magnetic field and vice versa. This unification becomes evem clearer in chapter 10, where the relativistic formalism of electrodynamics is introduced, as well as the electromagnetic tensor, which includes the electric and magnetic field components in a single relativistic entity. Electromagnetic waves and their production (electromagnetic radiation) are also introduced and studied in the second part of the book also revealing the unified nature of the electromagnetic field.

uk: Мистецтво, мистецтвознавство

description: This textbook fills a large gap in the Greek musicological literature that refers to the analysis of the repertoire of tonal music, and consists of three distinct parts. The first part is a thorough study of the harmonic vocabulary of tonal music, i.e. of the available types of chords and their notation under a view that, more or less, assimilates to the main relevant traditions cultivated in the field of music theory from the 18th up to the 20th century: the harmonic theory of scale-degrees along with thorough-bass figures, the functional harmony of Hugo Riemann but also the reductive harmonic thought of Heinrich Schenker. Furthermore, a holistic investigation on the degrees of relationship between all keys and harmonic regions used in the musical repertoire already from the late 16th century and, at least, up to the early 20th century is presented. The second part of the textbook has the form of a glossary, consisting of numerous entries in Greek and Latin alphabets, which refer to terms relevant to the tradition of tonal music, with emphasis on the established technical terminology for the harmonic and structural analysis, on comprehensive descriptions of music forms and genres, but also on terms that are obviously excessive, unsuitable or even incorrectly rendered in Greek. The entries are designed ή formed in such way so as to operate both independently and within a dense network of interdependent references. The third and last part is a brief guide for writing papers in the field of music analysis, with useful and specialised advice in writing and editing a text, as well as in stylisation and utilisation of the necessary bibliographical references.

de: Ingenieurwissenschaften

en: Engineering Sciences

description:
This handbook is a tool for applied spatial planning and focuses on the analysis and evaluation of regional spatial frameworks. The aim of the handbook is to provide students with the necessary knowledge for the analysis and evaluation of spatial planning at the regional level, taking into account the Greek institutional and spatial reality.
Spatial planning at the regional level was chosen, since the scale of the region is one of the most important in spatial planning and because it is a subject in spatial planning laboratory courses.
In the first chapter of the textbook, the theoretical framework concerning spatial planning is discussed and the tools of spatial planning with which we will be asked to work are analysed.
Subsequently, the following chapters contain individual exercises that constitute the methodological steps for the evaluation of a spatial planning policy, i.e. an already established Regional Spatial Planning Framework (RSP).
The individual chapters present the subject matter being analysed and evaluated, followed by specific examples, cartographic and diagrammatic material derived from actual evaluations of RSPs (as is the case in the spatial planning laboratory courses), which are currently in place.
Thus, the student is given the opportunity to gain a realistic picture of what it means to analyse-evaluate spatial planning under real data and conditions. The applied examples given relate to more than one region and make use of the best examples of evaluation in each case.

description: The factors affecting the quality of a cycling network are complex. Firstly, it is important to evaluate the geography of the cycling network, namely its density and city coverage. However, it is important to pay also attention to infrastructure characteristics. There are several studies that correlate parameters of infrastructure with the number of accidents. Nevertheless, more important for the success of a cycling network is measuring the sense of security that the network offers to cyclists. Another measure of the quality of a cycling network are stated preference surveys, in which cyclists assess what they consider to be the best cycling infrastructure. A fourth category of research that has dealt with the quality parameters of cycling networks are revealed preference surveys, in which the routes of cyclists are correlated with the infrastructure offered. In many cases what cyclists say they prefer is not actually what they really choose. Finally, papers are also important, which correlate the number of cyclists with the infrastructure offered or papers that evaluate the exposure of cyclists to pollutants or measure uncomfortable vertical vibrations and associate them with the cycling infrastructure. The book collects the above researches, categorizes them and presents them, and exports the factors that are proven to affect the use of a cycling network and should be evaluated. The work is important for students and engineers guiding them when designing a cycling network. In addition, every citizen has to evaluate the quality of infrastructure offered by his city. The evaluation variables that through the above process were extracted for the evaluation of a cycling network are: Connectivity – Density, Continuity, Directness, Slopes, Stops, Dangerous Crossings, Dangerous segments, Night time safety, Surface quality, Infrastructure width, Separation, Guidance Signage, Quality of environment.

description: This book is addressed to undergraduate and postgraduate students. It is an anthology of Latin poetry of Late Antiquity (3rd-7th centuries AD). Its subject is the study of the main poetic genres of the period through the texts themselves. In addition to the necessary introduction, from which the reader can draw a lot of information on the historical and political circumstances and the literary trends of this era (e.g., the generic mixture, the emergence of new literary genres or the decline of old ones), a number of poets are studied, corresponding to various literary genres from the 3rd to the 7th century AD. The structure of the book's chapters corresponds to a different literary genre each time (except for Chapters 1 and 12, which correspond to the prologue and epilogue respectively, and Chapter 7, which deals with various poetic genres). In this book, the reader will find a variety of literary genres and poets: epic, epyllion, elegy, bucolic poetry, epigram, panegyrics, epithalamia, Christian poetry, centos, etc., namely Claudian, Dracontius, Reposianus, Maximianus, Rutilius Namatianus, Luxorius, Venantius Fortunatus, etc. Consequently, he/she will be introduced into a not so widely known period of Latin poetry and will complement his/her knowledge of the evolution of its literary genres. All the anthologized Latin texts have been translated into Modern Greek, and a detailed vocabulary follows. Each Latin text is preceded by a summary of the text, and followed by commentaries (with various notes). At the end of each chapter, there is a bibliography and questions. The aims of the present book are to introduce students to a field that is widely studied in recent years, to make them understand the similarities and differences between Latin poetry of Late Antiquity and the Augustan period, and thus to realize its evolution and its original aesthetic value.

description:
This work is an attempt to describe the state of implementation of the new technologies of the Semantic Web and Open Linked Data in the library sector. It is an important handbook since it is the first approach to present the relationship of Open Linked Data with libraries and knowledge organizations in general. It is written in simple language and can provide a good basis for those interested in gaining general knowledge about these technologies.
In the beginning, basic information and concepts about open-linked data are given so that the reader can understand these technologies on a theoretical level, followed by concrete examples of applications in German libraries and organizations. In this way, the reader gains the theoretical background necessary to understand these technologies and learns how they are applied in knowledge organizations.
More specifically, the first chapter deals with the basic concepts and historical developments of linked data and open data, with a focus on the library community. This is followed by an explanation of the technical characteristics of linked data, and then the legal framework for open licensing (access) is described.
The second chapter attempts to provide an overview of the vocabulary currently available for describing bibliographic data as linked data and comparing them without going into excessive detail.
The next chapter deals with the representation of journal publications using FRBRoo, thus solving problems that have been created by the lack of proper documentation and presentation of these collections. While the fourth chapter deals with another important issue concerning the provenance of linked data - a parameter that is very important regarding linked data.
Chapter five discusses the research data. More specifically, open-linked data offers an infrastructure for uniformly describing research data, identifying it clearly, and making it available to as many users as possible. Within this context, the challenges, opportunities, and benefits of a LOD-based infrastructure for describing and linking research data are presented based on the experience gained in the InFoLiS project.
Chapter six introduces the theoretical aspects that are important about catalog enrichment based on (open) linked data and gives an example of how to enrich bibliographic data based on other LOD sources via the LOD lobid.org service.
In chapter seven, various projects and technologies are presented and their potential contributions to the German Digital Library are further elaborated.
Chapter eight presents the challenges and the process followed to create B3Kat in 2011 as Open Data in MARC/XML format and as Linked Open Data in RDF/XML format which is the joint catalog of the Bavarian Library Association (BVB) and the Berlin-Brandenburg Cooperative Library Association (KOBV).
Chapter nine presents the development of an information system for the use of linked data in the field of archaeology.
Finally, the text concludes with appendices on the definition, terminology, and requirements of open knowledge. The principles for open bibliographic data and recommendations for opening up bibliographic data are also mentioned. This is followed by a glossary that includes all the terminology that has been used throughout the work.

description:
This book covers some of the main topics regarding the words of the Italian language. It studies their history and origins in Greek or Latin, their borrowing from other languages (i.e. Spanish and French) and their evolution over time, following the changes occurring on a historical, social and cultural level.
In the book, the semantic system of the Italian language/Italian semantics is firstly examined in the light of the historical-comparative method, which is the one that allows us to interpret the etymology and semantic changes of a large part of the Italian vocabulary.
The main goal of the book is to introduce the foreign language student to the acquisition of the semantic-lexical competence, that is, the ability to use online – at the speech stage – the largest possible part of the Italian vocabulary in the most appropriate way and according to the specifications of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
To this end, building on the Lexical Approach and inspired by the natural and the communicative-cultural approach, this study focuses on three "paths" and on contrastive analysis. Thus, an inventory of 5000 words comprising the basic vocabulary of the Italian language is presented (Vocabolario di Base, VdB: De Mauro, 2016), divided into thematic areas (school, family, daily life, etc.) and language concepts (space, time, etc.) as prescribed in the Curricolo di insegnamento dell’italiano Lingua Straniera nei Licei greci (Minniti Gònias, Athens, 2008).
The overall aim of this book is to enable the general public to become acquainted with the vocabulary of Italian as a language quite different from the standard form, which is usually presented in grammar books and textbooks intended for "foreign language" students (the so-called italiano didattico).

description: This book is an excellent introduction to Roman historiography and the work of the leading Roman historian, Cornelius Tacitus. It is an annotated edition of chapters 20-23 and 33-45 of Book 15 of the Annals, in which Tacitus recounts the shocking events of 62-64 AD. The central event is the great fire of Rome (64 AD) that wiped out much of the city (with an account of both what preceded and what followed). This book is an excellent study of these particularly interesting and turbulent years in Roman history. It makes good use of the available bibliography and is remarkable for its intelligent and engaging style of writing. The extensive Introduction is made up of six highly informative essays. The first three focus on the life, times, and work of Tacitus, while the fourth explores his style and distinctive characteristics. The last two essays paint a vivid portrait of the cultural and political scene in Rome at the time. The Main Part provides the Latin text along with a rich vocabulary and questions that invite the reader to explore various issues, such as grammatical identifications, analysis of sentence structure, legal and political issues. The interpretive comments are very rich in stylistic and historical analysis, analysis of the syntactic structure of sentences, and offer original insight into the word order and Tacitus’ choice of diction.

description:
This book is addressed to students at polytechnic schools and associated university departments offering them complete knowledge on the topic of sustainable mobility and Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMP). It is the first greek book that covers this scientific topic, and its necessity is justified, among others, by the fact that the planning of urban mobility systems through a more sustainable and human-centered philosophy is an integral part of the urban design of modern and environmentally friendly cities.
The book has been organized in such a way so that it follows the teaching process of the courses that is about to be taught. More specifically, the first two chapters aim at familiarizing students with the subject of sustainable urban mobility and its necessity, as well as with the SUMPs, their role and content. Afterwards, the students will receive all the necessary knowledge for the implementation of SUMPs, such as the participatory planning, the evaluation of the existing situation, the development of alternative scenarios, the formulation of sustainable mobility measures and the monitoring and evaluation of the performance of sustainable mobility systems. The citation of good practices from Greece and abroad will contribute to the assimilation of the knowledge provided. The most established and emerging systems and models of sustainable urban mobility are also presented; knowledge useful for students who will further engage with the broader subject of urban planning.
The extensive bibliography provided in each chapter, the presentation of technical terms in an understandable way, the provision of many images/pictures for more effective assimilation of knowledge and the numerous evaluation criteria are key advantages of the book that will significantly help teachers in teaching the subject covered by the book.

description: The relationship between good health and a healthy diet is proved  to be stronger today than it used to be inprevious years. Nutrition is the cultural expression of every people and is influenced by the environment, the climate, the endemic flora and fauna as well asthe history and the tradition. Nutrition is a key factor to the development of the body and  itsproper functioning  It also helps you to mantain healthy and protects you  against  various diseases, as long as  the human body receives all the nutrients to perform its main functions. The aim of this book is to correlate nutrition, from conception to childhood, with the development of the child and its effect on the adoption of healthy eating habits that will follow the child into adulthood. Lack of proper nutrition can have an impact on a child's development and future health. Childhood obesity is one of the major issues that need to be addressed immediately, both at the family and educational level.

This textbook contains virtual experiments in Mechanics, Electromagnetism and Optics. Each chapter corresponds to an experiment and includes the theoretical background of the experiment, the experimental method, the simulation of the experimental setup and the corresponding worksheet. The worksheets are in stand-alone printable format and include both links and QR codes of the simulations, which are recorded in video format.
In addition, for each experiment, there are evaluation criteria enriched with educational activities in the form of videos, related to the corresponding theory, which the trainees can carry out and answer corresponding questions. These activities can be used by teachers both in the laboratory and in the teaching of the respective courses.
The virtual experiments presented in the book are simulations-models, with small variations, of the real experiments of the physics educational laboratory of the Department of Physics of the School of Applied Mathematical and Physical Sciences of the National Technical University of Athens. Thus it is possible to use this book not only in the case of distance education, but also in the case of live teaching in the laboratory.
More specifically, the contained virtual experiments could be leveraged:
i. Alongside the actual experiment, so that students understand the role of models.
ii. As additional exercises for better practice and assessment of students.
iii. To familiarize the students with the experimental setup and procedure during their preparation for the corresponding real experiment.
iv. In introductory courses on the processing and presentation of measurements.
Various software was used to create the virtual experiments, such as Interactive Physics, Scratch programming language, Phet simulations, etc. The experiments were converted to video so that the trainee with observation and appropriate handling of the video could take measurements and complete the worksheets. We hope that teachers and students in Physics will find this book useful.

description:
Tax Accounting is one of the main pillars of accounting. Knowledge of the tax framework is an important asset for any active citizen, and mainly for students, undergraduate and postgraduate, of economic schools. At the same time, it is a useful tool for professionals operating in the fields of accounting and financial management of business entities.
This book deals with issues of tax accounting per the Income Tax Code (L.4172/2013), the Tax Procedure Code (L.4174/2013), the Value Added Tax Code (L.2859/2000) and the Greek Accounting Standards (L.4308/2014).
The book is developed into 10 chapters, presenting a part of the tax legislative framework, accompanied by practical examples, which make it easier to understand tax legislation. Chapter 1 presents the basic concepts of the Income Tax Code and the Code of Tax Procedure. Chapter 2 presents income from paid employment and pensions, as well as the method of taxation. Chapter 3 lists the income from the business activity of natural persons. Chapter 4 develops how business expenses are recognized as deductible and non-deductible and thus the distinction between accounting and taxable income. Chapter 5 deals with capital income and how it is taxed. At the same time, chapter 6 presents how to determine the income from capital gains.
Chapter 7 develops alternative methods of calculating taxable income and minimum taxation, which aim to tackle the phenomena of tax evasion and avoidance. Chapter 8 presents how to determine and tax the income of Legal Persons and Legal Entities.
In chapter 9 there is a brief presentation of indirect taxes and in particular, value-added tax, as determined by the Value Added Tax Code (L.2859/2000). Finally, chapter 10 presents the Unified Property Tax, as defined according to L.4223/2013.

description:
The aim of this book is to collect, record, study and correlate elements that reflect in the best possible way the physiognomy of Athens during the last decades of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. To present the image of the city, or rather the small village, that King Otto in the post-revolutionary years made the capital of the newly established Greek state, thus giving it the prospect of evolving over time into a modern city, following western European standards. It thus created the conditions and laid the foundations for the development of a city which, year after year, grew thanks to the constant internal migration of people from all corners of the country and the arrival of people from abroad.
      An attempt is therefore made to capture the image of the first small houses that gradually gave way or coexisted with other large, beautiful, imposing buildings. As the urban landscape changes due to the use of new materials and the rise in living standards, the image of the city's inhabitants, their way of living and dressing, but also the particular characteristics of their domestic and professional life, their habits, their comforts and their problems, all the elements that shape the everyday life of the Athenians, also change.
     It also presents the educational, cultural and intellectual life of the inhabitants of Athens, as well as the position of women in social life and examines the continuous development of the city, its buildings, streets, public transport, energy systems for heating and lighting, factors that constitute a modern advanced society.
     The aim of the book is to present as accurately as possible the European, especially the French, influence on the development of the capital of the modern Greek state and its citizens in all areas and on the formation of the improved image of the country by the beginning of the 20th century.

description:
The purpose of the book is to systematically present the basic theoretical and practical aspects of interpreting as an autonomous scientific discipline of Translation Studies and a professional activity. Its specific objective is to provide students and aspiring interpreters with the theoretical knowledge, practical skills and professional values needed to understand and apply in practice the complex process of interpreting: from the phase of preparation to the phase following the conclusion of the interpreting process.
As far as the theoretical content is concerned, the book presents a critical overview of the general principles and fundamental issues of interpreting, such as: how interpreting is defined and how it differs from related activities, in what categories it is distinguished, what theoretical considerations contributed to its development, in what settings and what modes of interpreting interpreters work, what the relevant requirements are, what the rules of professional ethics are and how the profession is affected by modern technological developments.
As far as the practical aspects of the book are concerned, students become familiar with the basic skills of interpreting. The issues addressed from that point of view are how interpreting is performed in practice, what cognitive processes are involved, what techniques are applied to each mode of interpreting, what the potential roles and tasks of interpreters are and how they should behave in the performance of their duties. The aforementioned issues are addressed in six chapters, each one of which is followed by several comprehension questions as well as exercises for practical application, using, where possible, authentic material.

description: In the post-modern era there has been a shift from the emphasis on Time (History) to that on Space - the “Territory” (Spatial Turn). At the same time, today we are talking about multiple identities, which are shaped according to the context, while now emphasis is given to the function of the body, the senses and the emotions, which shape the Physiognomy of both the Person and his Community. New data, which come not only from literary sources, but also from excavations and inscriptions (and coins), come to overturn the traditional view of the formation of a unified Christianity in the Mediterranean par excellence by Paul. It is now found that this charismatic figure, like Judaism, was also for centuries examined through the “glass brillen” of Augustine and Luther (cf. the “New Paul Perspective”). Therefore, in this Handbook I will focus on the diverse Christian Communities, which were founded not only around the Aegean but in the Mediterranean as a whole (Asia Minor, Rome, Alexandria, Cartagena, Spain) to examine their “dialogue” and coinherence with the surrounding World. The sensitization of the Space in the 1st c. is also derived from the meaning given to genius loci. Essentially, following the “Way” (as Christianity was originally called) – the "steps" of Jesus Christ, Paul, John and the other “workers” of the Gospel, I will offer the general public a Panorama of the diversity of their Christian Communities during the first two centuries and a “spiritual wandering” to rediscover their ethos and morals, taking into account the latest data regarding the Mediterranean world during the imperial era. History and Geography are intertwined, so that especially after a Crisis, something new emerges.

description:
The goal of this textbook is to present the basic topics of Engineering Geology which will be called upon to deal with both geologists and engineers.
The structure of the book is divided into two parts, where in the first the physical and mechanical characteristics of both soil and rock formations are thoroughly presented and extensive reference is made to the rock mass classifications.
In the second part of the book, reference is made to geological phenomena, which when they threaten the man-made environment are classified as hazards. An extensive presentation is made to the hazard evaluation process of these phenomena such as the methodology regarding the compilation of inventory maps and the assessment of their susceptibility.
The phenomena of landslides, rockfalls and seismically induced failures such as seismic landslides and liquefaction are then analyzed in separate thematic sections.
It was considered appropriate to distinguish the failures caused by seismic loads and to analyze them as a separate thematic unit because Greece is characterized by intense seismic activity with serious consequences for the natural and man-made environment. The triggering mechanism of these phenomena is analyzed and the most recently developed methodologies for evaluating the probability of occurrence are presented.
The last section of the book refers to the use of remote sensing technologies in Engineering Geology. The application of these technologies, by geologists, is strongly recommended for the reliable and accurate mapping of likely to failure areas.

description:
Design using computers is a multidimensional subject. It covers topics from computer graphics and digital imaging to the creation of architectural, mechanical, electrical, industrial, and topographical designs and maps. In addition, design using computers includes informatics knowledge regarding the operation and specifications of the peripheral devices of the PC for the input of images or designs, and the peripheral devices used for their performance outside the computer. It also includes knowledge of the operation of the computer and its peripherals about color management and performance.
This book attempts to cover at a satisfactory level all the above objects, specializing more, however, in design with CAD software and Autodesk AutoCAD, giving the student, researcher, and anyone else interested in knowledge and education the possibility to have a complete picture of the subject of Computer Design. In the last two chapters, the book focuses on practical topics around Computer Design to understand the theoretical chapters 1 to 8, focusing on design topics related to the science of Agronomist and Surveyor Engineering by providing material from the laboratory exercises done in the context of the "Design using computers" course at the Department of Rural and Surveying Engineering of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and the presentation of topographical design methodologies using AutoCAD software.

description: The purpose of the book is to teach the Python programming language through the development of programs that solve real engineering problems, particularly in the field of Mining Engineering. The book is aimed at both the first-year student and the practicing engineer; no previous computer programming experience is necessary, although it is welcome. In the first part of the book (Chapters 02 to 10), the introduction to Python programming techniques is step-by-step, following the steps to be taken to solve a real-world mining problem by writing piece by piece the code of a Python program to be developed for this purpose. The second part of the book (Chapters 11 to 20) is dealing with independent engineering subjects and aims to expand the reader's knowledge, with additional elements of the Python language and programming techniques and, mainly, with the use of specialized Python libraries, internal and external (third-party). Some of these subjects are of general interest, such as solving equations, systems of equations, differential equations and integrals, or the development of the graphical user interface (GUI) of a program. However, there are also Chapters dealing with specialized subjects, such as data processing resulting from measurements of quantities, optimization and linear programming, project management and systems simulation. These subjects are, mainly, for the interest of students, who are taking the relevant courses during their studies, or the engineers, who want to apply them in practice. The last Chapter of the book enables the reader to turn his computer into a virtual piano and compose his own music with the help of Python.

description: The R system is a tool widely used in statistical, data analysis and machine learning applications. Furthermore, due to the extensibility and flexibility of the R system, the tool has been proven suitable for applications in many other domains and fields of knowledge. R can be used interactively, without programming, but is also a programming language and a tool for software development. It is on this second nature of R (that of a programming language) that this book focuses on. Emphasizing on the use of examples, the book starts with an introduction to programming and the R programming language, and progresses to more advanced topics. The approach taken by the book aims to introduce R to new programmers and/or new users of this particular language using simple, familiar examples of general programming and bypassing, to some extent, the presentation of R as a scientific tool. The relevant concepts, techniques and tools used by developers, the basic principles that govern R language, its peculiarities, the added capabilities produced by its ecosystem (sources, packages, application development environments etc.) are discussed in this first part of the book. In the second part, the book proceeds to more advanced topics, presenting some features of the R language that allow the development of more complex applications and solutions.

description: The importance of Probability and Statistics in solving issues in a variety of scientific domains has been steadily rising in recent decades. As a result, in addition to the Mathematics and Statistics departments, several university departments now teach Probability and Statistics. The major objective of this book is to give students, learning these topics for the first time, all the theoretical grounding they need to select and use the right methodology to solve problems in their field of study. This book can be used as an introduction text in courses on Probability, Statistics, or Probability-Statistics in the aforementioned context. In particular, the material from Chapters 1-7, with full emphasis on proofs and the theoretical background, is considered sufficient for the teaching of an introductory course in Probability, while the material from Chapters 8-13, with full emphasis on theoretical results, is considered sufficient for the teaching of an introductory course in Statistics. Finally, it is advised to cover the topics from Chapters 1-6 and 8-13 without focus on the mathematical proofs when teaching an introductory Probability and Statistics course or while teaching the course in departments other than Mathematics and Statistics.

keywords: Estimation of the probability density function

keywords: Nonparametric statistical process control

uk: Математика, природничі науки

description: The main aim of this book is to present both traditional Nonparametric Methodologies (such as tests based on ranks, runs, goodness-of-fit tests) as well as subsequent developments (estimation of the probability density function, bootstrap, nonparametric regression). Specifically, in Chapter 1 a review of basic definitions and concepts from Probability Theory and Statistics is given. Moreover, an introduction to the area of Nonparametric Statistics is provided, in which the necessity of nonparametric methodologies, their differences with their parametric counterparts and relevant areas of application are presented. Chapter 2 consists of methods and techniques for the nonparametric estimation of the cumulative distribution function and its functionals, while, in Chapter 3, we provide the main methods for the nonparametric estimation of the probability density function. Chapter 4 is devoted to goodness-of-fit tests, while Chapter 5 presents the simplest hypothesis testing techniques, those that are based on the Binomial distribution. In Chapter 6 we provide a wide variety of nonparametric, techniques for statistical hypothesis testing, which techniques are based on ranks, while randomness tests are presented in Chapter 7. In Chapter 8 we provide the main nonparametric statistical measures for the correlation of two variables. The corresponding nonparametric statistical tests for correlation are also provided. Nonparametric regression techniques are discussed in Chapter 9, while resampling methods, such as jackknife and bootstrap, are presented in Chapters 10 and 11, respectively. Chapter 12 deals with basic nonparametric techniques in statistical process control, while Chapter 13 presents the application of various nonparametric methodologies using SPSS and R. In addition, we provide statistical tables in the Appendix which enable the application of the statistical techniques presented in the main part of the book. Finally, the webpage https://github.com/abatsidis/NPDataSets allows access to the datasets and R codes used in the chapters of this book.
