The four sections of the text cover the theory and implementation of sustainable architecture within various geographic boundaries and contexts, offering an interdisciplinary assessment of the challenges faced in urban areas at different climate zones. Design Computing and Cognition'20 by John S. Gero English | EPUB | 2022 | 679 Pages | ISBN : 3030906248 | 97.1 MB The papers in this volume are from the Ninth International Conference on Design Computing and Cognition (DCC'20) held virtually at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, USA. They represent the state-of-the-art of research and development in design computing and design cognition including the increasingly active area of design cognitive neuroscience. They are of particular interest to design researchers, developers and users of advanced computation in designing as well as to design educators. Design Added Value: How Design Increases Value for Architects and Engineers by Ömer Akın English | EPUB | 2022 | 224 Pages | ISBN : 3030288595 | 16.9 MB Design has intrinsic, economic value. To make this value tangible, design features of buildings need to be explored, measured, and taken into account when initiating projects and financing their construction. It is as calculable as the extrinsic value of a project. However, we need concepts, strategies, methods, techniques, and tools to do just that. Descent of the Testis by John M. Hutson English | PDF | 2016 | 188 Pages | ISBN : 3319259083 | 9.3 MB This book provides a state of the art overview of all aspects of testicular descent and cryptorchidism, including the mechanisms of descent and the causes, consequences, diagnosis, and treatment of undescended testis. Deployable Machine Learning for Security Defense: Second International Workshop, MLHat 2021, Virtual Event, August 15, 2021, Proceedings by Gang Wang English | PDF | 2021 | 163 Pages | ISBN : 3030878384 | 9.7 MB This book constitutes selected and extended papers from the Second International Workshop on Deployable Machine Learning for Security Defense, MLHat 2021, held in August 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held online. Dependability Metrics: Advanced Lectures by Irene Eusgeld English | PDF | 2008 | 303 Pages | ISBN : 354068946X | 4.7 MB With the growing ubiquity of computing systems, it is essential that we can rely on the services they deliver. Justifying reliance in computer systems requires scientific techniques to derive evidence from given systems or predict such evidence. This tutorial book gives an overview of the current state of the art in measuring the different aspects of dependability of systems: reliability, security and performance.
Denumerable Markov Chains: with a chapter of Markov Random Fields by David Griffeath by John G.
