This book delves into the intricate journey of neuroendocrine evolution, from its rudimentary origins in single-celled organisms to the complex systems found in mammals. It offers a comprehensive exploration of how neuropeptides and their receptors have evolved, highlighting the pivotal role of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland in this process.Key concepts covered include the evolution of neuropeptide signaling, insights from invertebrate hypothalamic-pituitary systems, and the functional trajectories of ancient peptide ligand-receptor systems. The book addresses critical questions such as the organization and evolution of neurotransmitter volume transmission, the form and function of growth hormone-releasing hormone across vertebrates, and the co-evolution of neuroendocrine signaling dyads. Chapters on the melanocortin system, corticotropin-releasing hormone, and nonapeptide regulation of social behavior in teleost fish provide a deep dive into specific pathways and their evolutionary significance.Aimed at researchers and professionals in neuroscience, endocrinology, and evolutionary biology, this text serves as an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the comparative anatomy and physiology of neuroendocrine systems.This is the seventeenth volume in the International Neuroendocrine Federation (INF) Masterclass in Neuroendocrinology series, which aims to illustrate the highest standards and highlight the latest technologies in basic and clinical research, and aspires to provide inspiration for further exploration into the exciting field of neuroendocrinology.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems, DAIS 2009, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in June 2009. The DAIS conference was held as part of the federated event on Distributed Computing Techniques (DisCoTec), together with the 11th International Conference on Coordination Models and Languages (Coordination 2009) and the IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Formal Techniques for Distributed Systems (FMOODS/FORTE 2009). The 12 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 32 submissions. The papers address service orientation, quality of service and service contract, business processes, Web services, service components, algorithms and protocols supporting dependability, fault tolerance, data replication, group communication, adaptive and collaborative systems, context awareness, model-driven development, middleware for ubiquitous computing and sensor networks, ad hoc network protocols, peer-to-peer systems, and overlays. They are organized in topical sections peer-to-peer networks, adhoc networks, dependability, and infrastructure and services.
