Dementia is a challenge facing health and social care around the world. Due to factors such as growing elderly populations, improved recognition, and diagnosis, the number of people with the illness is set to double over the next two decades. As a result, improving the quality of life for dementia patients and carers is an international priority. Dementia Care: International Perspectives is a comprehensive resource offering a global view of the clinical management and resources offered to carers and patients. Featuring 47 country profiles across 5 continents, this resource offers invaluable insights into dementia care across borders and different cultures. Each country profile features a helpful summary of key points, and contains an up-to-date, concise discussion on the clinical management of dementia within the country.This unique compendium has been written in collaboration with the International Dementia Alliance (IDEAL) to develop understandings of clinical practice and services available around the world, hoping to unify ideas and ultimately improve quality of care. Written and edited by the world's leading experts, Dementia Care: International Perspectives is a useful tool for researchers, clinicians, policy makers, academics, and international commentators wishing to expand their knowledge of the subject.

Assessment and Staging of Care for Dementia: The IDEAL schedule and its user manual is a unique resource containing a global clinical staging schedule for dementia alongside essential, practical information on how to use it. The International Schedule for the Integrated Assessment and Staging of Care for Dementia (IDEAL) schedule assesses a patient's capacity to function in seven domains. These domains are 'activities of daily living', 'physical health', 'cognitive functioning', 'behavioural and psychological symptoms', 'social support', 'informal care', and 'formal professional care'. Each domain has a set of anchor points to assist with rating the different dimensions appropriately along with critical information on how to calculate the total sum score on the IDEAL schedule.In addition to the IDEAL schedule itself, this resource includes a glossary of key terms and guidance on recommended priorities for interventions for different symptoms and severity patterns. Global examples of how to apply the schedule based on different levels of resources and experience are also presented along with relatable case studies mapped directly to the schedule.Created by the International Dementia Alliance, this innovative tool and user manual is suitable for health care professionals with experience in the diagnosis and treatment of people with dementia around the world, as well as any of those involved in dementia care.

Gewalt, mangelnde Sicherheit, Kriminalitat - so lauten die Stichworte, die die offentliche Debatte beherrschen: Ist der Staat nicht dabei, an Halt und Ansehen einzubussen? Und tut sich gegenwartig nicht ein tiefer Graben zwischen seinen Leistungen und den Erwartungen der Burger auf? Sich bei der Auseinandersetzung um solche Fragen nur auf spektakulare und die gerade aktuellen Erscheinungen zu beschranken ware allerdings viel zu einfach. Der Zerfall der Sicherheit ist eine wesentlich umfassendere Entwicklung, die einige Jahrzehnte weit zuruckreicht. Die Studie geht der Genese der Unsicherheit nach und ihren Deutungsmoglichkeiten; dabei stutzt sie sich auf umfangreiches Datenmaterial. Sie fuhrt die Unsicherheit auf tiefgreifende Wandlungen von Lebensgewohnheiten und des gesellschaftlichen Beziehungsgefuges zuruck. Mit ihr liegt der Entwurf einer allgemeinen Kriminalsoziologie vor.
Del 52 - Stochastic Modelling and Applied Probability
Stochastic Networks and Queues

Queues and stochastic networks are analyzed in this book with purely probabilistic methods. The purpose of these lectures is to show that general results from Markov processes, martingales or ergodic theory can be used directly to study the corresponding stochastic processes. Recent developments have shown that, instead of having ad-hoc methods, a better understanding of fundamental results on stochastic processes is crucial to study the complex behavior of stochastic networks.In this book, various aspects of these stochastic models are investigated in depth in an elementary way: Existence of equilibrium, characterization of stationary regimes, transient behaviors (rare events, hitting times) and critical regimes, etc. A simple presentation of stationary point processes and Palm measures is given. Scaling methods and functional limit theorems are a major theme of this book. In particular, a complete chapter is devoted to fluid limits of Markov processes.

Ce livre présente une catégorie de modèles probabilistes regroupés sous le nom de réseaux ou systèmes de files d'attente. Ces modèles interviennent dans de nombreuses applications, comme les réseaux de télecommunication ou les réseaux informatiques. Sur le plan théorique ils sont à la source d'une large classe de problèmes: marches aléatoires et diffusions réfléchies, processus ponctuels, etc. Ce livre présente les techniques probabilistes qui permettent d'étudier le comportement qualitatif de ces modèles: existence de régimes stationnaires, caractérisation du comportement à l'équilibre, étude asymptotique du comportement transitoire (évènements rares) et des régimes critiques (saturation) ... Un chapitre est consacré aux récentes techniques liées aux limites fluides. Les méthodes de martingales, de processus de Markov et de théorie ergodique sont à la base de cette présentation.
