  • An introductory course in linguistic pragmatics

    • Authors: Laimutis Valeika (2010)

  • Pragmatics, or, to be more exact, linguistic pragmatics, is a branch of linguistics concerned with the use of language in the situation. Many a work has been written on general and specifc problems of pragmatics since the time of C. W. Morris, the father of modern pragmatics. Te same can be said about textbooks: they seem to be in abundance. However, the textbooks available are, as a rule, designed for students whose frst language is English; no attention is paid to those whose frst language is not English. In this textbook, where relevant, an attempt is made to contrast the linguistic means of realization of the speaker’s meaning in English and Lithuanian. Such an approach, though relatively sporadic, is two-way useful: it enhances the understanding of the problems being examined ...

  • Materials and resources for elt

    • Authors: Trujillo, Fernando (2019)

  • Materials and resources have been divided into three sections: the old, the new and the newest. The first one includes the most traditional elements in a language classroom: the blackboard, the textbook, visual aids and hand-made materials. The second comprises the over-head projector, the audio player and the video camera and video player. Finally, the latter section deals with the information and communication technologies which represent the brand-new present and the future of our profession. In general, the objective of this chapter is to prove that teachers have a wide range of materials and resources available to them. Some of them may look more “teachercentred” and some other may be more suitable for a “learner-centred” environment. However, the challenge, in every case, i...

  • Computational Prediction of Protein Complexes from Protein Interaction Networks

    • Authors: Srihari, Sriganesh (2017)

  • The problem of protein complex prediction may be just one of the plethora of computational problems that have opened up since the deluge of proteomics (protein-protein interaction; PPI) data over the last several years. However, in reality this problem encompasses or directly relates to several important and open problems in the area—in particular, the fundamental problems of modeling, visualizing, and denoising of PPI networks, prediction of PPIs (novel as well as evolutionarily conserved), and protein function prediction from PPI data. Therefore, to write a comprehensive self-contained book, we had to cover even these closely relatedproblemstosomeextentoratleastalludetoorreferencetheminthebook. We had to do so without missing the connection between these problems and our central p...
