Green communications is a very hot topic. As mobile networks evolve in terms of higher rates/throughput, a consequent impact on operating costs is due to (aggregate) network energy consumption. As such, design on 4G networks and beyond have increasingly started to focus on 'energy efficiency or so-called green networks.

This volume of Advances in Chemical Physics is dedicated, by the contributors, to Moshe Shapiro, formerly Canada Research Chair in Quantum Control in the Department of Chemistry at the University of British Columbia and Jacques Mimran Professor of Chemical Physics at the Weizmann Institute, who passed away on December 3, 2013. It focuses primarily on the interaction of light with molecules, one of Moshe's longstanding scientific loves. However, the wide range of topics covered in this volume constitutes but a small part of Moshe's vast range of scientific interests, which are well documented in over 300 research publications and two books.

Shows how the engineering curriculum can be a site for rendering social justice visible in engineering, for exploring complex socio-technical interplays inherent in engineering practice, and for enhancing teaching and learning. Using social justice as a catalyst for curricular transformation, Engineering Justice presents an examination of how politics, culture, and other social issues are inherent in the practice of engineering. It aims to align engineering curricula with socially just outcomes, increase enrollment among underrepresented groups, and lessen lingering gender, class, and ethnicity gaps by showing how the power of engineering knowledge can be explicitly harnessed to serve the underserved and address social inequalities. This book is meant to transform the way educators think about engineering curricula through creating or transforming existing courses to attract, retain, and motivate engineering students to become professionals who enact engineering for social justice. Engineering Justice offers thought-provoking chapters on: why social justice is inherent yet often invisible in engineering education and practice; engineering design for social justice; social justice in the engineering sciences; social justice in humanities and social science courses for engineers; and transforming engineering education and practice. In addition, this book: Provides a transformative Engineering for Social Justice framework for engineering educators in service learning, professional communication, humanitarian engineering, community service, social entrepreneurship, and social responsibility Includes strategies that engineers on the job can use to advocate for social justice issues and explain their importance to employers, clients, and supervisors Discusses diversity in engineering educational contexts and how it affects the way students learn and develop Engineering Justice is an important book for today's professors, administrators, and curriculum specialists who seek to produce the best engineers of today and tomorrow.

Occupational Biomechanics, Fifth Edition provides the foundations and tools to assemble and evaluate biomechanical processes. It describes the mechanical side of ergonomics. This revision of a well-established graduate-level text enables the book to stay current with research and development in occupational biomechanics. All chapters are updated to reflect recent data (anthropometry for example). New methods in biomechanics, simulation, movement recording, job analysis, hand activity, and muscle fatigue have been inserted. Rarely used job analysis methods (example: posture targeting) are removed and replaced by more contemporary methods (example: Hand Activity Level). Since worker selection is no longer a predominant issue, this part has been removed and the section on administrative controls is developed further. Review questions are updated and/or expanded.

Provides a single-source reference for readers interested in the development of analytical methods for analyzing non-antimicrobial veterinary drug residues in food Antibiotics are used in a variety of production industries around the world. Some of the industries include dairy, livestock, poultry, and honey production. They are used in animals to promote growth and prevent disease. However the frequent use of antibiotics can cause residues to be found in products of animal origin, such as meat and milk. The presence of excess residues above the allowable maximums is illegal and can cause health problems including allergic reactions and carcinogenicity. Chemical Analysis of Non-antimicrobial Veterinary Drug Residues in Food provides a single-source reference for readers interested in developing analytical methods for analyzing non-antimicrobial veterinary drug residues in food. To ensure the safety of the food supply and to facilitate international trade, government agencies and international bodies establish standards, guidelines, and regulations that food producers and trade partners need to meet, respect, and follow. A primary goal of national and international regulatory frameworks for the use of veterinary drugs is to ensure that authorized products are used in a manner that will not lead to non-compliance residues. However, analytical methods are required to rapidly and accurately detect, quantify, and confirm antibiotic residues in food to verify that regulatory standards have been met and to remove foods that do not comply with these standards from the marketplace. This book covers key aspects of the analysis for these residues combining disciplines including sample preparation, the application of high resolution mass spectrometry in the development of multi-residue, multi-class analytical methods, regulatory standards setting, method validation, and quality assurance and control issues specifically related to multi-residue methods (MRMs). Chemical Analysis of Non-antimicrobial Veterinary Drug Residues in Food features: A comprehensive set of information in the area of consumer food safety and international trade General issues related to measurement uncertainty, screening, and confirmatory methods Techniques ranging from nanotechnology and aptamer based assays covering current and potential applications for non-antimicrobial veterinary drugs Guidance for analysis of banned drugs including natural and synthetic steroids, Resorcylic acid lactones, and Beta-agonists This book can be used by analysts, scientists, managers and/or laboratories that conduct chemical analysis of antibiotic residues in food, drinking water, or even biological and environmental samples. It can also serve as a reference book for students, at universities and colleges, who take subjects related to chemical residue analysis. Jack F. Kay works in the UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. He has actively participated in the Codex Committee on Residues of Veterinary Drugs in Food for more than ten years. James D. MacNeil retired as head of the Centre for Veterinary Drug Residues of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency in 2007. He is the former scientific editor for "Drugs, Cosmetics, and Forensics" of the Journal of AOAC International. Jian Wang is currently a research scientist leading a research and development unit for the Canadian Food Inspection Agency in Calgary, Alberta. He has written over thirty publications for various journals and books.
