This book offers a thorough examination of CAD-based programming in the context of design and manufacturing, structured across five key chapters. Readers will explore topics such as automated design, geometry feature recognition, and system assembly, as well as the generation of CNC codes directly from CAD models.

This book contributes to a better understanding of the impacts that artificial intelligence (AI) has on organizations and how they reinforce opportunities while simultaneously overcoming the underlying risks.

This book explores the integration of AI across various aspects of education, covering key topics such as managing AI implementation, promoting its sustainable use, and examining its applications in diverse learning environments. It delves into AI-driven personalization of teaching, its role in faculty support and academic administration, and its impact on research and innovation. The discussion extends to the potential risks of over-reliance on technology, including its effects on critical thinking and creativity, as well as the pedagogical implications of generative AI in relation to traditional teaching methods. Finally, the book addresses the evolving dynamics of teacher-student interactions in an AI-enhanced educational landscape.

This book explores the dynamic interplay between entrepreneurship and innovation, two pivotal forces driving economic and social development. By examining how entrepreneurial spirit fuels the creation of new businesses and how innovation enables these ventures to thrive in competitive markets, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of their combined impact on progress.It investigates key concepts such as digital transformation, e-commerce, and the shared economy, providing insights into how these trends expand the possibilities for innovation. With contributions from international experts, the chapters examines sectors including technology, healthcare, and renewable energy, showcasing the transformative power of new ideas. Readers gain a deeper appreciation for how innovative companies not only survive market shifts but also propel technological and social advancements.This book is an invaluable resource for scholars, researchers, and professionals across disciplines who are interested in fostering an entrepreneurial and innovative culture. It is particularly relevant for those in technology, business, and policy-making fields, providing essential skills in critical thinking, problem-solving, and resilience. Whether you are an academic, a practitioner, or an interested layperson, this book offers the tools to build a more sustainable and competitive future.

This book looks to cover the issues related to advances in higher education for sustainable development goals. Nowadays, sustainable development is an important concept in higher education. One of the most widely recognized definitions is based in the Brundtland report as "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." The three core pillars of sustainable development are environment, society and economy. Currently, higher education in the context of sustainable development goals (SDGs) is a great challenge. The information about higher education for sustainable development presents great interest to improve communication between professors, researches and students in universities, institutes, colleges, etc.This research book covers all aspects of higher education for sustainable development goals, namely, no poverty, zero hunger, good health and wellbeing, quality education, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, affordable and clean energy, decent work and economic growth, industry, innovation, and infrastructure, reduced inequalities, sustainable cities and communities, responsible consumption and production, climate action, life below water, life on land, peace, justice and strong institutions and partnerships.

Understood to be a key issue in modern society, sustainability is characterized by its three essential pillars, namely: the environment, society and the economy. Education plays an important role in how people understand and accept sustainability. The integration of sustainability in engineering education is a relatively new phenomenon, and presenting information about engineering education for sustainability is of great interest to improve communication between professors, researchers and students at universities, institutes and research laboratories.Topics discussed in the book include:¿ Experiences from 5 years of educating sustainability to computer science students¿ Review of decision support methods in green and sustainable supply chains¿ Analyzing the drivers of engineering education for sustainability using the MCDM approach¿ Visualization technologies in construction education: a comprehensive review of recent advances¿ A legal framework and compliance with construction safety laws and regulations

Referring to an organizations responsibility for their impact on society, corporate social responsibility (CSR) is greatly relevant for the competitiveness, sustainability and innovation in the management and engineering arena of organizations, and the economy worldwide. Taking in account its these concerns, Corporate Social Responsibility in Management and Engineering covers the issues related to corporate social responsibility in management and engineering in a context where organizations are facing, day after day, high challenges for what concerns issues related to their social responsibility. The book looks to contribute to the exchange of experiences and perspectives about the state of the research related to CSR, as well as the future direction of this field of research. It looks to provide a support to academics and researchers, as well as those that operating in the management field need to deal with policies and strategies related to CSR.

In recent years, mathematical techniques applied to novel disciplines within the science and engineering have experienced extraordinary growth. Advanced Mathematical Techniques in Science and Engineering focusses on a detailed range of mathematics applied within various fields of science and engineering for different tasks. Topics of focus include:- Analysis of Consensus-Building Time in Social Groups- Modeling of intersystem accidents in critical infrastructure systems- Stochastic approaches to analysis and modeling of multi-sources and big data- Performance evaluation of computational DoS attack on access point in Wireless LANs- Ranking methods for decision-making under uncertainty- Understanding time delay based Modeling & Diffusion of technological products- Role of soft computing in science and engineering- Complex system reliability analysis and optimization- Tree growth models in forest ecosystems modellingThis research book can be used as a reference for students in a final year undergraduate engineering course, such as mechanical, mechatronics, industrial, computer science, information technology, etc. Furthermore, the book can serve as a valuable reference for academics, engineers and researchers in these and related subject areas.
