The study of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is a continually growing, as these networks have the advantage of easy deployment for a number of different applications. Wireless Sensor Networks and Energy Efficiency: Protocols, Routing and Management focuses on wireless sensor networks and their operation, covering topics including routing, energy efficiency and management. Containing 27 chapters authored by a group of internationally experienced professionals and researchers in the fields of computer science, communication, and networking, this book discusses critical issues in wireless sensor network research including MAC, Routing Protocols, TCP, performance and traffic management, time synchronization, and security.

Software development and information systems design have a unique relationship, but are often discussed and studied independently. However, meticulous software development is vital for the success of an information system. Software Development Techniques for Constructive Information Systems Design focuses the aspects of information systems and software development as a merging process. This reference source pays special attention to the emerging research, trends, and experiences in this area which is bound to enhance the reader's understanding of the growing and ever-adapting field. Academics, researchers, students, and working professionals in this field will benefit from this publication's unique perspective.

The digital divide, caused by several factors such as poverty and slow communication technologies, has offset the progression of many developing countries. However, with rapid changes in technology, a better collaboration among communities and governance based on the latest research in ICT and technology has begun to emerge. Employing Recent Technologies for Improved Digital Governance is an essential reference source that provides research on recent advances in the development, application, and impact of technologies for the initiative of digital governance. The book has a dual objective with the first objective being to encourage more research in deploying recent trends in the internet for deploying a collaborative digital governance. The second objective is to explore new possibilities using internet of things (IoT) and cloud/fog-based solutions for creating a collaboration between the governance and IT infrastructure. Featuring research on topics such as intelligent systems, social engineering, and cybersecurity, this book is ideally designed for policymakers, government officials, ICT specialists, researchers, academicians, industry professionals, and students.

Jon Lowenstein’s photographs show that photos are not stuck in a single moment, but can reveal a long and deeply felt story. His is a slow process built over decades. The documentary photographer’s themes are social injustice, racism, and systemic violence. With each project he develops deep, decades-long ties to the communities that he documents. His work on the situation of undocumented immigrants in the USA has already received a great deal of attention. For two decades Lowenstein has turned the camera lens to his own neighborhood, Chicago’s South Side. Often presented as a hotspot of social issues on the news, he uses his camera to record everyday life and transcend the headlines in collaborative and honest black-and-white photographs. Supplemented by oral histories, personal texts, and poetry the insight into the South Side deepens even further and fills the pictures with additional life.

Det är så lätt att falla in i självömkan, bitterhet och hat. Det är så lätt att fastna i det som var igår och slåss mot det som ligger i morgondagen för att helt missa det som är idag.     Jag vill ge Dig hopp om att det går att ta sig vidare ut ur det som verkar styra Dina tankar, Dina känslor och Dina handlingar.     Jag har här i boken bara berört de upplevelser jag erfarit. Jag har inte gått in på detaljer eller nämnt varje tillfälle. Jag ville aldrig lägga fokus på min historia: fokus ligger på hur Du kan ta Dig vidare bort från det som en del matats med som evig sanning.     Bitterhet kan försvinna, och Du bär Din egen nyckel till frihet. Ur kärlek föds allt gott. Börja med kärleken till Dig själv.En stark och gripande berättelse som berör en, om ett barns tragiska uppväxt och start i livet med otrygghet, avsaknad av kärlek, missbruk och övergrepp.Men trots att livet i vuxen ålder fortsatt att bestå av kärlekslöshet, svek och eget missbruk finns en stark känsla av hopp och ljus för framtiden.     Det finns en styrka att vilja leva ett värdigt liv. Dikterna i boken är fantastiska! Inte att förglömma.                                                              - En berörd läsare
