Handbook of Combinatorial Optimization: Volume1-3 by Ding-Zhu Du English | PDF | 1998 | 2410 Pages | ISBN : 0792350197 | 217.7 MB Combinatorial (or discrete) optimization is one of the most active fields in the interface of operations research, computer science, and applied math ematics. Combinatorial optimization problems arise in various applications, including communications network design, VLSI design, machine vision, air line crew scheduling, corporate planning, computer-aided design and man ufacturing, database query design, cellular telephone frequency assignment, constraint directed reasoning, and computational biology. Furthermore, combinatorial optimization problems occur in many diverse areas such as linear and integer programming, graph theory, artificial intelligence, and number theory.

Green Infrastructure and Climate Change Adaptation: Function, Implementation and Governance by Futoshi Nakamura English | PDF,EPUB | 2022 | 494 Pages | ISBN : 981166790X | 191.4 MB This book introduces the function, implementation and governance of green infrastructure in Japan and other countries where lands are geologically fragile and climatologically susceptible to climate change. It proposes green infrastructure as an adaptation strategy for climate change and biodiversity conservation.
Gravity, Black Holes, and the Very Early Universe: An Introduction to General Relativity and Cosmology by Tai L. Chow English | PDF | 2008 | 285 Pages | ISBN : 0387736298 | 6.1 MB In the early 1900s, Albert Einstein formulated two theories that would forever change the landscape of physics: the Special Theory of Relativity and the General Theory of Relativity. By 1925, quantum mechanics had been born out of the dissection of these two theories, and shortly after that, relativistic quantum field theory. We now had in place some important ties between the laws of physics and the types of particle interactions the new physics was uncovering.
Grate-Fired Energy Crop Conversion: Experiences with Brassica Carinata and Populus sp. by Maryori C. Díaz-Ramírez English | PDF | 2015 | 208 Pages | ISBN : 3319373374 | 6.4 MB This book provides important insights into the combustion behavior of novel energy crops and agricultural fuels. It describes a new experimental approach to combustion evaluation, involving fundamental, bench-scale and commercial-scale studies. The studies presented were conducted on two representative biomass energy crops: a woody biomass poplar (Populus sp. or poplar) and an herbaceous biomass brassica (Brassica carinata or brassica). Global Price Fixing: Our Customers are the Enemy by John M. Connor English | PDF | 2001 | 6111 Pages | ISBN : 0792373332 | 16.2 MB Some books get written, others write themselves.

Global Pandemic and Human Security: Technology and Development Perspective by Rajib Shaw English | EPUB | 2022 | 434 Pages | ISBN : 981165073X | 25.2 MB This book highlights how the human security aspect has been affected by the global pandemic, based on the specific case study, field data, and evidence. COVID-19 has exemplified that the pandemic is global, but its responses are local. The responses depend on national governance and policy framework, use of technology and innovation, and people's perceptions and behavior, among many others. There are many differences in how the pandemic has affected the rich and the poor, urban and rural sectors, development and fiscal sectors, and developed and developing nations and communities. Global Governance in the Age of the Anthropocene by Markus Fraundorfer English | EPUB | 2022 | 383 Pages | ISBN : 3030881555 | 9.1 MB Why has global governance largely failed to effectively tackle some of the most pressing global environmental challenges of our time? What are the obstacles to effective global and planetary problem-solving? And which solutions and responses have global governance actors come up with to confront these challenges? |
