Free Download Jan G. Laitos, "Rethinking Environmental Law: Why Environmental Laws Should Conform to the Laws of Nature "
English | ISBN: 1788976029 | 2021 | 264 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Challenging historic assumptions about human relationships with nature, Jan G. Laitos examines how environmental laws have addressed environmental problems in the past, and the reasons for the laws' inability to successfully prevent environmental contamination and alterations of critical environmental systems. This forward-thinking book offers a creative and organic alternative to traditional but ultimately unsuccessful environmental rules, highlighting that established approaches to existential threats impacting our natural environment cannot be relied upon.

English | 2017 | ISBN: 1138086223, 1138915394 | EPUB | pages: 222 | 1.0 mb
Is global climate change likely to become a significant source of violent conflict, and should it therefore be seen as a national security challenge? Most Northern governments, militaries, think tanks and NGOs believe so, as do many academic researchers, on the grounds that increased temperatures, changing precipitation patterns and rising sea levels will worsen existing social stresses, especially within poor societies and marginal communities across Africa and Asia.

The subject of this monograph are restarting automata. The definition of these automata is motivated by the linguistic technique of analysis by reduction. This technique, which can be used to analyze sentences in natural languages with a rather free word-order like Czech (or Latin or German), consists of a sequence of step-by-step simplifications of a given sentence. Each of these simplifications is realized by a single reduction operation, which consists of either the deletion of one or several words from that sentence or the replacement of a (possibly discontinuous) substring of that sentence by a shorter substring. It is required that each application of such a reduction operation must preserve the syntactical correctness of the sentence. Accordingly, a restarting automaton consists of a finite-state control, a flexible tape that initially contains the input, and a read-write window of a fixed finite size that works on that tape. The first type of restarting automaton was presented at the international conference FCT in 1995. This type was required to restart as soon as it executes a rewrite operation, that is, the window jumps back to the left end of the tape and the finite-state control is reset to the initial state. Moreover, each rewrite operation simply deletes one or more letters from the contents of the read-write window. Subsequently, many different variants of the restarting automaton have been defined and studied. In particular, proper length-reducing rewrite operations have replaced the original delete steps, additional non-input letters, called auxiliary letters, have been added to the alphabet, and the original combined rewrite/restart operation has been split into a rewrite operation and a separate restart operation. Thus, the restarting automaton is no longer just a particular type of automaton, but it has evolved into a whole family of various types of automata that are specified through several parameters. The objective of the current monograph is to collect the many results that have been obtained on the various types of restarting automata in one place and to present them in a uniform and systematic way. In particular, the influence of the various parameters on the expressive capacity of the resulting types of restarting automata is studied in detail. Other topics include the descriptional complexity and inductive inference of certain types of restarting automata, cooperating distributed and parallel communicating systems of restarting automata, restarting automata with output, weighted restarting automata, and restarting automata for picture languages and tree languages. This monograph may serve as a book of reference for researchers working in formal language and automata theory, as a guide to the literature on restarting automata, and as a text book for an advanced undergraduate or graduate course in formal language and automata theory.

Free Download Resource Management in Cloud Computing: Concepts and Implementation
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031830520 | 366 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 24 MB
This book addresses fundamental concepts and practical implementations in cloud computing environments, focusing on load balancing and resource management. As cloud computing's popularity grows, expertise in infrastructure management is crucial for delivering flawless subscription-based services and hosted data solutions. The book presents novel models for cloud resource management to improve operational efficiency through better virtual machine (VM) placements. Beginning with task scheduling and resource allocation basics, the book progresses to resource management concepts. It introduces innovative models for dynamic resource allocation, heuristic approaches for optimal host selection, secure resource management frameworks, multi-objective VM allocation schemes, and data security models. A significant contribution is an effective model integrating load balancing, resource management, Quality of Service (QoS), security, and cloud performance for Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The book offers innovative methodologies for dynamic resource allocation and service administration in cloud datacenters. It presents traffic management techniques to reduce energy consumption, improve resource utilization, and enhance security through optimized VM placement, with experimental validation. These models improve response time, throughput, resource utilization, energy consumption, and failure node management. Security is addressed through secure VM placement strategies, making it harder for attackers to achieve co-tenancy. A multi-objective approach for secure load balancing optimizes multiple conflicting objectives simultaneously. The book includes cyber-threat countermeasures and provides recommendations for organizations and users. Suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate courses in cloud computing, resource allocation, security, and energy consumption methods, the book includes examples and tutorials using Cloudsim tools for beginners. This helps them understand virtual infrastructure and service design. The methodologies benefit both cloud service providers and customers, offering cost-effective solutions for revenue maximization. The comprehensive approach makes the book valuable for academic study and practical application in cloud computing environments.
