Service orchestration techniques combine the benefits of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Business Process Management (BPM) to compose and coordinate distributed software services. On the other hand, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is gaining popularity as a software delivery model through cloud platforms due to the many benefits to software vendors, as well as their customers. Multi-tenancy, which refers to the sharing of a single application instance across multiple customers or user...

This book offers a clear understanding of the concept of context-aware machine learning including an automated rule-based framework within the broad area of data science and analytics, particularly, with the aim of data-driven intelligent decision making. Thus, we have bestowed a comprehensive study on this topic that explores multi-dimensional contexts in machine learning modeling, context discretization with time-series modeling, contextual rule discovery and predictive analytics, recent...

This book presents a review of traditional context-aware computing research, identifies its limitations in developing social context-aware pervasive systems, and introduces a new technology framework to address these limitations. Thus, this book provides a good reference for developments in context-aware computing and pervasive social computing. It examines the emerging area of pervasive social computing, which is a novel collective paradigm derived from pervasive computing, social media, ...

Mit der Reihe Chinesische Perspektiven sollen grundlegende Werke chinesischen Denkens einem größeren deutschen Publikum zugänglich gemacht werden. Mit dem vorliegenden Band, der anlässlich des 40. Jahrestages der Aufnahme der diplomatischen Beziehungen zwischen China und Deutschland verfasst wurde, halten uns die Herausgeber einen faszinierenden Spiegel vor. Der chinesische, auf jeden Fall gut gemeinte Blick auf Deutschland ist auch und gerade für uns reich an Informationen und gibt Anlass...

In 1961 South Korea was mired in poverty. By 1979 it had a powerful industrial economy and a vibrant civil society in the making, which would lead to a democratic breakthrough eight years later. The transformation took place during the years of Park Chung Hee's presidency. Park seized power in a coup in 1961 and ruled as a virtual dictator until his assassination in October 1979. He is credited with modernizing South Korea, but at a huge political and social cost.South Korea's poli...

A novel based on the webtoon True Beauty. Fall in love with the story of Han Seo Jun, living in a world where people are judged based on their physical attributes.

Theory and Technology for Improving High-Speed Railway Transportation Capacity present solutions to problems in utilizing new technologies for signaling in high-speed rail towards increasing capacity. The book examines capacity in terms of signaling control and for a railway transport organization. Key problems covered include station intervals and resource occupation. This book provides a handbook for developing capacity through new technology and methods in signaling. Sections focus on i...

Unlike most available sources that focus on deep neural network (DNN) inference, this book provides readers with a single-source reference on the needs, requirements, and challenges involved with on-device, DNN training semiconductor and SoC design. The authors include coverage of the trends and history surrounding the development of on-device DNN training, as well as on-device training semiconductors and SoC design examples to facilitate understanding.

This book provides a brief introduction to the theory of finite dimensional differential inclusions, and deals in depth with control of three kinds of differential inclusion systems. The authors introduce the algebraic decomposition of convex processes, the stabilization of polytopic systems, and observations of Luré systems. They also introduce the elemental theory of finite dimensional differential inclusions, and the properties and designs of the control systems described by differentia...

DEEP IMPACT stop leading - be led Für Führungskräfte einer neuen Ära. Wir befinden uns mitten in einer der größten Umbruchphasen der Menschheitsgeschichte. Diese neue Ära erfasst auch die Businesswelt. Führungskräfte sehen sich mit noch nie dagewesenen Herausforderungen konfrontiert und damit oftmals alleingelassen. Druck, Überforderung und starke mentale Beanspruchung nehmen weiter zu. Klar ist: Leadership muss transformiert werden. Kaivalya Kashyap und Hans Strobl-Aloni, Co-Founder der I...

This brief focuses on introducing a novel mathematical framework, referred as hypergraph theory, to model and solve the multiple interferer scenarios for future wireless communication networks. First, in Chap. 1, the authors introduce the basic preliminaries of hypergraph theory in general, and develop two hypergraph based polynomial algorithms, i.e., hypergraph coloring and hypergraph clustering. Then, in Chaps. 2 and 3, the authors present two emerging applications of hypergraph coloring...

Inequality in health reflects the deeper social and economic structures shaping everyday life.This edited volume investigates the complex and uneven landscape of health disparities in contemporary Korean society, demonstrating how rapid economic and social transformations have produced unequal health outcomes across diverse populations. The collection highlights how factors such as employment conditions, social capital, and access to healthcare contribute to differe...
