This edited book presents the results of the 5th Workshop on Real-world Wireless Sensor Networks (REALWSN). The purpose of this workshop was to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the area of sensor networks, with focus on real-world experiments or deployments of wireless sensor networks. Included were, nonetheless, emerging forms of sensing such as those that leverage smart phones, Internet of Things, RFIDs, and robots. Indeed, when working with real-world experiments or dep...
Feature Interactions in Software and Communication Systems IX
This publication deals with the feature interaction problem in telecommunication systems. In this domain, an interaction occurs when one telecommunications feature/service modifies or subverts the operation of another one. Undesired interactions can both lower this quality and delay service provisioning. Therefore, the problem of feature interactions in telecommunications is of great importance. In the past decade, a lot of attention has been devoted to the development of methods for detection a...
System architects and engineers in fields such as storage networking, desktop computing, electrical power distribution, and telecommunications need a common and flexible way of managing heterogeneous devices and services. Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) and its Component Information Model (CIM) provide the architecture, language, interfaces, and common models for the management of storage, computing, and telecommunication applications. Now there is a practical guide for those who design...
Flying Ad Hoc Networks (Wireless Networks)
by Jingjing Wang and Chunxiao Jiang
Relying on unmanned autonomous flight control programs, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with radio communication devices have been actively developed around the world. Given their low cost, flexible maneuvering and unmanned operation, UAVs have been widely used in both civilian operations and military missions, including environmental monitoring, emergency communications, express distribution, even military surveillance and attacks, for example. Given that a range of standards and proto...
Multi-objective Design Of Antennas Using Surrogate Models
by Slawomir Koziel and Adrian Bekasiewicz
This book addresses computationally-efficient multi-objective optimization of antenna structures using variable-fidelity electromagnetic simulations, surrogate modeling techniques, and design space reduction methods. Based on contemporary research, it formulates multi-objective design tasks, highlights related challenges in the context of antenna design, and discusses solution approaches. Specific focus is on providing methodologies for handling computationally expensive simulation models of ant...

ChemConnections (ChemConnections, #0)
by B. Moore, George C. Lisensky, and Arthur B. Ellis
Light-emitting solids are essential for many high technology materials and products, including compact disc (CD) players. Students make use of the periodic table to propose color-specific emitting solids based on knowledge of periodic properties, bonding, electronic transitions, solid structures, and the properties of light.

La nueva cartografia del sector audiovisual argentino relata y analiza un proceso de descentralizacion que transforma el tradicional mapa de ese sector productivo. A partir de los primeros anos del Siglo XXI, en el cruce de la digitalizacion y la puesta en marcha de politicas publicas nacionales y provinciales, comienza a crecer la produccion audiovisual en todas las provincias del pais. Se trata de una realidad que excede en mucho la realizacion de un conjunto de producciones audiovisuales que...
WiMAX/MobileFi
WiMAX is bringing about a worldwide revolution in broadband wireless access, including both fixed and mobile handsets. The IEEE 802.16 working group standardized most aspects of WiMAX signaling messages. However, several algorithms were left unspecified opening the door for innovations in protocol engineering for 802.16/802.20-based broadband wireless systems. Get Connected to the WiMAX Revolution WiMAX/MobileFi: Advanced Research and Technology brings together the world’s leading WiMAX research...
