<p>The purpose of this book is to discuss the trends and key drivers of Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) for automation in Industry 4.0. IoT and AI are transforming the industry thus accelerating efficiency and forging a more reliable automated enterprise. AI-driven IoT systems for Industry 4.0 explore current research to be carried out in the cutting-edge areas of AI for advanced analytics, integration of industrial IoT (IIoT) solutions and Edge components, automation in cyber-physical systems, world leading Industry 4.0 frameworks and adaptive supply chains, etc.</p> <p>A thorough exploration of Industry 4.0 is provided, focusing on the challenges of digital transformation and automation. It covers digital connectivity, sensors, and the integration of intelligent thinking and data science. Emphasizing the significance of AI, the chapter delves into optimal decision-making in Industry 4.0. It extensively examines automation and hybrid edge computing architecture, highlighting their applications. The narrative then shifts to IIoT and edge AI, exploring their convergence and the use of edge AI for visual insights in smart factories. The book concludes by discussing the role of AI in constructing digital twins, speeding up product development lifecycles, and offering insights for decision-making in smart factories. Throughout, the emphasis remains on the transformative impact of deep learning and AI in automating and accelerating manufacturing processes within the context of Industry 4.0.</p> <p>This book is intended for undergraduates, postgraduates, academicians, researchers, and industry professionals in industrial and computer engineering.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。 ※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>This book focuses on syndemics in the Global South and uses COVID?19 as a window to understand clusters of disparities and disease comorbidities. The pandemic has exposed and multiplied structural inequalities and certain subpopulations were more exposed to COVID?19 as well as experienced greater morbidity and mortality. The effects of the pandemic differ between countries but have had an especially major impact, although in varying ways, in the Global South. The contributions in this volume explore the differential impacts of COVID?19 at individual, community, national, or regional levels, considering how structural violence is institutionalized in a way that creates vulnerable situations and disproportionate suffering. The book will be of interest to anthropologists and sociologists as well as to those working in global and public health.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。 ※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>This book takes a critical and historical perspective in parsing the current state of play for refugee and immigrant students in Germany, addressing federal, state, and institutional innovations as well as gaps in service.</p> <p>Drawing from de/post/anticolonial theory, it considers the levels of support for diverse groups including migrants, refugees, and racialized Germans, investigating why a comparatively well-resourced higher education system has, to date, selectively invested in the support of some marginalized groups. It calls for the reconsideration of policy and programmatic support, drawing from emerging best practice across states and higher education institutions (HEIs). Using historical analysis, federal and state level policy documents, institutional equal opportunity plans and student-facing websites, reporting, and first-person-accounts of marginalized students both prospective and enrolled, this critically oriented work interrogates how and why the world’s fourth largest economy ? and its primarily public higher education system ? have failed to engage systemic change with an eye towards addressing mechanisms of exclusion including racialization and xenophobia. It concludes with a consideration of possible policy interventions supporting these minoritized student groups who are essential not only to German learning and economy, but also to the rebuilding of conflict states.</p> <p>This volume will appeal to researchers, scholars, and practitioners working across comparative and international higher education, crisis education, and education in emergencies, as well as diversity specialists.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。 ※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>This collection explores communication differences in individuals with sensory impairment/loss relevant to health and education students and professionals.</p> <p>Children and adults with hearing, vision, and dual sensory impairment/ loss may experience differences and/or difficulties with communication. This book goes beyond describing sensory loss to encourage readers to think about sensory loss and communication as part of a biopsychosocial view of health and the intersecting identities of the clients and families that they service. The book takes a strengths-based, evidence-informed approach and utilises the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) of the World Health Organization (WHO). Each chapter focuses on either children or adults with hearing, vision, dual sensory impairment/loss, or sensory loss and complex communication needs. Each chapter introduces the group described in the chapter and issues around appropriate use of terminology, followed by a discussion of the sensory impairment/loss and communication needs considered within each component of the ICF. Chapters conclude with case studies highlighting cultural and linguistic diversity, high-resourced and low- resourced contexts, and intersecting identities in which the framework of the ICF is applied.</p> <p>This book is a valuable resource for scholars, educators, and clinicians interested in evidence-based practices to support their work with individuals experiencing sensory loss.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。 ※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p><em>Basic Christian Magical Theories and Exercises</em> is an esoteric manual that reveals the magical theories and practices of Christian occultism and mysticism. If you want a Christianity that is pure, genuine, and deeply spiritual, then this is the book for you.</p> <p><em>Basic Christian Magical Theories and Exercises</em> is not only a book of information, but it is an invitation to a wonderful adventure -- a journey that is overflowing with divine magic. Many witches and sorcerers these days are turning to Christ for a deeper spirituality. The sad thing is that although there are many people who claim to believe in Christ, only a very few are able to penetrate into the mysteries and actually experience the divine presence and wonder of being with Jesus Christ.</p> <p>Many so-called Christians these days are only Christians by name. Their lives, particularly how they live, usually differ. But, we always have a choice: we can be just like them or we can genuinely and sincerely follow the Divine Master, Jesus Christ. Indeed, there is a huge difference between those who claim to believe in Christ and those who actually follow in the footsteps of the Master.</p> <p><em>Basic Christian Magical Theories and Exercises</em> will teach you the essential theoretical knowledge that you need to understand what magic is from a Christian perspective, and you will also learn helpful exercises which you can use in your daily life. After all, Christian magic ought to be experienced on a deep and personal level, and not only to be understood by the intellect. Always remember that real magic is an experiential art. You must experience it personally -- because that is the only way to realize and know what it really is.</p> <p>When Jesus was born, it is written that He was visited by the three magi. It is worth noting that the term magi is the plural form of the word magus. And, magus is the word where the term magic came from. As you can see, when Jesus was born, He was visited by three magical practitioners (the three magi). Magic, in and of itself, is not a sin. Just as a knife is neither sinful nor holy. It depends on how you use it. Christian magic uses the art of magic for good and good alone -- always in the service of God.</p> <p>Are you ready now for a magical adventure? If yes, then let me now welcome you into this mysterious and infinite universe of Christian mysticism -- where there is true faith, hope, love, and divine magic!</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。 ※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
