![]() Gary Mattson, "American Hometown Renewal: Policy Tools and Techniques for Small Town Officials" English | ISBN: 0765639327 | 2016 | 492 pages | EPUB | 2 MB Before the interstates, Main Street America was the small town's commercial spine and served as the linchpin for community social solidarity. Yet, during the past three decades, a series of economic downturns has left many of the great small cities barely viable. American Hometown Renewal is the first book to combine administrative, budgetary, and economic analysis to examine the economic and fiscal plight currently facing America's small towns. Featuring a blend of theory, applications, and case studies, it provides a comprehensive, single-source textbook covering the key issues facing small town officials in today's uncertain economy.
![]() Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce. Designing Trading Strategies and Mechanisms for Electronic Markets: AMEC and TADA 2012, Valencia, Spain, June 4th, 2012, Revised Selected Papers By Martin Chapman, Gareth Tyson, Katie Atkinson (auth.), Esther David, Christopher Kiekintveld, Valentin Robu, Onn Shehory, Sebastian Stein (eds.) 2013 | 161 Pages | ISBN: 364240863X | PDF | 3 MB This volume contains 11 thoroughly refereed and revised papers detailing recent advances in research on designing trading agents and mechanisms for agent-mediated e-commerce. They were originally presented at the Joint Workshop on Trading Agent Design and Analysis (TADA 2012) and Agent-Mediated Electronic Commerce (AMEC 2012) co-located with AAMAS 2012 in Valencia, Spain, in June 2012.The increasing reliance on software agents has created a range of pressing new research challenges, including the design of appropriate agent decision algorithms, approaches for predicting the complex behaviors and interactions of multiple agents, including the computation of equilibria, and the engineering of protocols and mechanisms that ensure electronic markets behave in a stable manner or fulfill other desirable criteria. Drawing upon a diverse range of scientific disciplines, including computer science, economics, artificial intelligence, operations research and game theory, the papers collected in this volume represent a cross-section of recent research and cover topics such as strategies for individual trading agents, the design of markets and interaction protocols between agents, and a variety of applications. ![]() Shahid Javed Burki, "Afghanistan: The Next Phase: The Next Phase" English | ISBN: 0522867596 | 2014 | 200 pages | EPUB | 2 MB Afghanistan: The Next Phase takes an in-depth look at the present situation in Afghanistan by placing it in the context of the country's tribal culture, history and demography. It considers its association with Pakistan, with whom it shares not only a long border, but also the Pashtuns, the largest ethnic component in its population and the rise of extremism in many parts of the Sunni world. The country faces an uncertain future as it has yet to develop the institutional structure that could transform it into an inclusive society. ![]() Advances on Broad-Band Wireless Computing, Communication and Applications: Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Broad-Band Wireless Computing, Communication and Applications (BWCCA-2017) By Leonard Barolli English | PDF | 2018 | 898 Pages | ISBN : 3319698109 | 106.2 MB This book gathers the Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Broad-Band Wireless Computing, Communication and Applications, held on November 8-10, 2017 in Barcelona, Spain. Information networking is currently undergoing a rapid evolution. Different kinds of networks with different characteristics are emerging and being integrated in heterogeneous networks. As a result, there are many interconnected problems that can occur at different levels of the hardware and software design of communicating entities and communication networks. ![]() Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing III: Selected Papers from the International Conference on Computer Science and Information Technologies, CSIT 2018, September 11-14, Lviv, Ukraine by Natalia Shakhovska English | PDF | 2019 | 610 Pages | ISBN : 3030010686 | 108.3 MB This book reports on new theories and applications in the field of intelligent systems and computing. It covers computational and artificial intelligence methods, as well as advances in computer vision, current issues in big data and cloud computing, computation linguistics, and cyber-physical systems.

Malinowska English | PDF | 2015 | 142 Pages | ISBN : 3319147552 | 3 MB This brief presents a general unifying perspective on the fractional calculus. It brings together results of several recent approaches in generalizing the least action principle and the Euler-Lagrange equations to include fractional derivatives. ![]() Abortion and the Law in America: Roe v. Wade to the Present by Mary Ziegler English | March 26, 2020 | ISBN: 1108498280, 1108735592 | True EPUB | 326 pages | 2.4 MB With the Supreme Court likely to reverse Roe v. Wade, the landmark abortion decision, American debate appears fixated on clashing rights. The first comprehensive legal history of a vital period, Abortion and the Law in America illuminates an entirely different and unexpected shift in the terms of debate. Rather than simply championing rights, those on opposing sides battled about the policy costs and benefits of abortion and laws restricting it. This mostly unknown turn deepened polarization in ways many have missed. Never abandoning their constitutional demands, pro-choice and pro-life advocates increasingly disagreed about the basic facts. |
