The paragraphs below are arranged in alphabetical order and are intended only as a short reference. For readers interested in a particular topic a few references are given which serve as a link for further reading. Generally, it should be noted that the separation of the categories below is to a large extent based on historic evolution rather than physicochemical mechanisms. 

Bioinformatics is a relatively new discipline that is concerned with the collection, organisatic and analysis of biological data. It is beyond our scope to provide a comprehensive overvie of this discipline a few textbooks and reviews that serve this purpose are now available (s the suggestions for further reading). However, we will discuss some of the main rnethoc that are particularly useful when trying to predict the three-dimensional structure and fum tion of a protein. To help with this. Appendix 10.1 contains a limited selection of some of tf common abbreviations and acronyms used in bioinformatics and Appendix 10.2 lists sorr of the most widely used databases and other resources. 

An important issue is howto solve large problems that occur in distributed systems. The optimization of distributed systems is discussed in Refs. 52, 120, 244, and 285. For further reading on optimization, readers are directed to Refs. 120 and 244 as well as introductory texts on optimization applied to chemical engineering (Refs. 99 and 225). The material in this section is part of a more advanced treatment (Ref. 295). 

Several texts are available for further reading on turbulent flow, including Tennekus and Lumley (ibid.), Hinze (Turbulence, McGraw-HiU, New York, 1975), Landau and Lifshitz (Fluid Mechanics, 2d ed.. Chap. 3, Pergamon, Oxford, 1987) and Panton (Jncompressible Flow, Wiley, New York, 1984). 

In the following sections, results from various photoelectron spectroscopy studies of poly(p-pheny enevinylenc), polythiophene, and polyaniline, and their interaction with different metals will be discussed. The intention is not to cover the whole existing literature, but still give a relatively extensive overview, and, where appropriate, give references for further reading.

As indicated in the Preface, this book does not claim to be comprehensive. Fortunately there are a number of other books which cover all or some aspects of diazo chemistry and can be recommended for further reading. Some of these will be mentioned briefly in this section. Older books are not included. The latter are still useful, however, for chemists who are interested in the future of their science not just from a pragmatic viewpoint, but also with regard to identifying potentially fruitful future scientific developments based on old problems. Such problems were frequently not followed up in the past because no suitable methods or theoretical concepts were available at that time - but the necessary methods may be already available today or may become so in the future ...

There is a wide range of reagents available for derivatization and the analyst is again referred to the books by Frei and Lawrence (17) and Karl Blau and John Halket (47) for further reading. The references given here have been chosen as those that are most likely to include the complete details of the derivatizing procedures. They were not chosen as the most contemporary examples of analyses employing derivatization techniques. 

Most suggestions for further reading are given in full in the Bibliography at the end of this book. However, in view of the specialised nature of the topics discussed in this chapter it is worth citing a list of further reading which concentrates on mechanical properties of polymers. They are ... 

The Internet has become the best source for thermodynamic data. Run a search on something like chemical thermodynamic data on any serious search engine, and you will hnd multiple sources, most of which allow free downloads. The data in the standard handbooks, e.g. Perry s Handbook (see Suggestions for Further Reading section of Chapter 5), are still correct but rather capricious in scope and likely to be expressed in archaic units like those sprinkled here and there in this book.
