The book is an attempt to team up with global leading research experts working in the field of plant nitrogen metabolism to compile an up-to-date and wide-ranging volume. The main purpose of this book is to present information on the most recent developments including the different modern approaches and methodologies that are being currently employed in the field of plant nitrogen metabolism. We trust that this comprehensive volume will familiarize readers with the detailed mechanisms of nitrogen metabolism and its regulation and the current trends in this field of study.  Advances in Mathematics Research. Volume 31 by Albert R. Baswell; English | 2022 | ISBN: 1685078923 | 218 pages | True PDF | 15.54 MB This volume includes six chapters that detail recent advancements in mathematics research. Chapter One presents various capabilities of the Maple computer algebra system. Chapter Two uses data from the Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Study to demonstrate how to perform multilevel structural equation modeling to investigate if academic aspiration of immigrant youths in late adolescence mediates both the effects of family socioeconomic status and school location at individual and school levels in early adolescence on their later successful college graduation in young adulthood. Chapter Three proves the existence and regularity of solutions in α-norm for some partial functional integrodifferential equations in Banach spaces. Chapter Four discusses a method for obtaining exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. Chapter Five analyzes the linear and nonlinear stability of modons and We-Verkley waves, which are weak solutions of the barotropic vorticity equation. Lastly, Chapter Six provides an explicit representation of the maps interconnecting the sets of solutions to the special double confluent Heun equation and the equation of the RSJ model of overdamped Josephson junction in case of shifted sinusoidal bias.  Advances in Cyber Security and Intelligent Analytics by Abhishek Verma English | 2022 | ISBN: 103221600X | 310 pages | True PDF | 14.77 MB We live in a digital world, where we use digital tools and smart devices to communicate over the Internet. In turn, an enormous amount of data gets generated. The traditional computing architectures are inefficient in storing and managing this massive amount of data. Unfortunately, the data cannot be ignored as it helps businesses to make better decisions, solve problems, understand performance, improve processes, and understand customers. Therefore, we need modern systems capable of handling and managing data efficiently. In the past few decades, many distributed computing paradigms have emerged, and we have noticed a substantial growth in the applications based on such emerging paradigms. Some well-known emerging computing paradigms include cloud computing, fog computing, and edge computing, which have leveraged the increase in the volume of data being generated every second. However, the distributed computing paradigms face critical challenges, including network management and cyber security. We have witnessed the development of various networking models―IoT, SDN, and ICN―to support modern systems requirements. However, they are undergoing rapid changes and need special attention. The main issue faced by these paradigms is that traditional solutions cannot be directly applied to address the challenges. Therefore, there is a significant need to develop improved network management and cyber security solutions. To this end, this book highlights the challenges faced by emerging paradigms and presents the recent developments made to address the challenges. More specifically, it presents a detailed study on security issues in distributed computing environments and their possible solutions, followed by applications of medical IoT, deep learning, IoV, healthcare, etc.  Advanced Topics in Contemporary Physics for Engineering; Nanophysics, Plasma Physics, and Electrodynamics; 1 by Lobo Rui F. M. English | 2022 | ISBN: 1032247630 | 371 pages | True PDF | 31.47 MB This book highlights cutting-edge topics in contemporary physics, discussing exciting advances and new forms of thinking in evolving fields with emphases both on natural phenomena and applications to modern engineering. It provides material for thought and practice in nanophysics, plasma physics, and electrodynamics.  Advanced Classical and Quantum Probability Theory with Quantum Field Theory Applications by Harish Parthasarathy English | 2022 | ISBN: 1032405120 | 263 pages | True PDF | 5.83 MB This book is based on three undergraduate and postgraduate courses taught by the author on Matrix theory, Probability theory and Antenna theory over the past several years.  Absolute Therapeutic Medical Physics Review by Malcolm Heard, Raghavendiran Boopathy, Charles R. Thomas English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031146700 | 135 pages | True PDF EPUB | 7.08 MB This book is a comprehensive study guide for the therapeutic medical physicist pursuing initial board certification and those participating in continuing education. Medical physics is an evolving field as a result of rapidly developing technology and the focus on evidence-based care in radiation oncology. Recently, the certification body has mandated an online question and answer system to allow practicing physicist to receive continuing education credits. The questions are designed to test the walking around knowledge of the clinical physicist. Many physicists specialize in specific treatment modalities, thus limiting their exposure to other areas of clinical physics. This handbook allows these physicists to stay up-to-date and satisfy the requirements of the certification body.  AI-Centric Smart City Ecosystems; Technologies, Design, and Implementation by Alex Khang English | 2022 | ISBN: 10321707944 | 305 pages | True PDF | 32.08 MB Over the next few years, smart city technologies will be rolled out, and the IoT devices and AI-centric systems will provide even more far-reaching connectivity. This book presents various concepts in the design and development of a smart city and methodologies and solutions involved in designing contemporary infrastructure for building smart cities around the world. The book will focus mainly on six areas of smart city infrastructures: smart city entities, IoT-based solutions, AI-centric control systems, smart systems, cybersecurity mechanisms, data science, and cloud computing for the deployment of the smart ecosystem.  AI for Status Monitoring of Utility Scale Batteries by Shunli Wang, Kailong Liu, Yujie Wang, Daniel-Ioan Stroe, Carlos Fernandez and Josep M. Guerrero English | 2023 | ISBN: 18395373887 | 495 pages | True PDF | 29.38 MB Batteries are a necessary part of a low-emission energy system, as they can store renewable electricity and assist the grid. Utility-scale batteries, with capacities of several to hundreds of MWh, are particularly important for condominiums, local grid nodes, and EV charging arrays. However, such batteries are expensive and need to be monitored and managed well to maintain capacity and reliability. Artificial intelligence offers a solution for effective monitoring and management of utility-scale batteries.  A Regulatory Framework for the Art Market? by Anna Bolz English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031187423 | 324 pages | True PDF EPUB | 7.03 MB This book addresses practical issues in connoisseurship and authentication, as well as the legal implications that arise when an artwork's authenticity is challenged.
