This book introduces wireless traffic steering as a paradigm to realize green communication in multi-tier heterogeneous cellular networks. This book presents an energy-aware traffic steering method for networks with energy harvesting, which optimizes the traffic allocated to each cell based on the renewable energy status.

This book explains how investor behavior, from mental accounting to the combustible interplay of hope and fear, affects financial economics.

Experimental data analysis is at the core of scientific inquiry, and computers have taken this function to a new level. This volume is an interactive guide to complex modern analytical processes from non-linear curve fitting to clustering and machine learning.

This book reveals the ever-present challenges of patient care at the forefront of medical knowledge.

This book explores sustainability engineering through the lens of the manufacturing and chemical process industries to elucidate the safe and economic implementation of process designs used to transform raw materials into useful finished products.

This book examines a basic problem in critical approaches to political and social inquiry: in what way is social inquiry animated by a practical intent? The practical intent in inquiry derives from the connection between social inquiry and the participant's perspective.

The Permian - Triassic and Paleogene volcano-plutonic and plutonic associations are two important geological events in the evolutionary history of Southeast Asia, including the 260 - 250 Ma Emeishan mantle plume and Indian-Eurasia collision at 60 - 55 M. The volume includes 9 chapters, divided into 3 parts.

This book explores an approach to social robotics based solely on autonomous unsupervised techniques and positions it within a structured exposition of related research in psychology, neuroscience, HRI, and data mining.

This research monograph aims at presenting an integrated assessment approach to describe, model, evaluate and improve the eco-efficiency of existing and new grinding processes and systems.

This book describes wetting fundamentals and reviews the standard protocol for contact angle measurements. The authors include a brief overview of applications of contact angle measurements in surface science and engineering.

This book is about dark matter's particle nature and the implications of a new symmetry that appears when a hypothetical dark matter particle is heavy compared to known elementary particles.

This book providesinformation on the distribution of the available energy resources throughoutthe continent and how it is linked to the development of individual states.

The book provides an overview of the state-of-the-art of map construction algorithms, which use tracking data in the form of trajectories to generate vector maps.

This book examines how and why collaborative quality assurance techniques, particularly pair programming and peer code review, affect group cognition and software quality in agile software development teams.

This book provides the analytical theory of complex systems composed of a large number of high-Q dielectric resonators. The scattering process of short pulses in dielectric filter structures, dielectric antennas and lattices of dielectric resonators is discussed.

It examines the necessity of a comprehensive, active cyber denial scheme. The authors explain the organizational implications of integrating D&D with a legacy cyber strategy, and discuss trade-offs, maturity models, and lifecycle management.

This research aims to achieve a fundamental understanding of synchronization and its interplay with the topology of complex networks. Besides zero-lag synchrony, group and cluster states are considered, enabling a description and study of complex synchronization patterns within the presented theory.

This thesis considers the non-equilibrium and energy transfer processes involved in the evolution of astrophysical gases and plasmas.

surrender procedure), mutual recognition of custodial sentences, and measures involving deprivation of liberty, mutual recognition of probation measures and alternative sanctions, mutual recognition of financial penalties, mutual recognition of confiscation orders, the European supervision order in pre-trial procedures (i.e.

This book is both a personal review of experience in the diagnosis of child abuse and its differential diagnosis, intended to instruct beginners, and a reliable source of information for the more experienced health care provider.

The author further demonstrates that massive galaxies suffer a gradual decline in their star formation activity, providing an alternative path for galaxies to stop star formation.

Devoted to dynamic inequalities of Hardy type and extensions and generalizations via convexity on a time scale T, this book gives the time scale versions of a wide range of inequalities, following their histories and development. Each section in self-contained and one can see the relationship between the time scale versions.

This book aims to deepen public understanding of the community college and to challenge our longstanding reliance on a deficit model for defining this important, powerful, and transformative institution.
