Big data generates around us constantly from daily business, custom use, engineering, and science activities. Sensory data is collected from the internet of things (IoT) and cyber-physical systems (CPS). Merely storing such a massive amount of data is meaningless, as the key point is to identify, locate, and extract valuable knowledge from big data to forecast and support services. Such extracted valuable knowledge is usually referred to as smart data. It is vital to providing suitable decisions in business, science, and engineering applications. Deep Learning Applications for Cyber-Physical Systems provides researchers a platform to present state-of-the-art innovations, research, and designs while implementing methodological and algorithmic solutions to data processing problems and designing and analyzing evolving trends in health informatics and computer-aided diagnosis in deep learning techniques in context with cyber physical systems. Covering topics such as smart medical systems, intrusion detection systems, and predictive analytics, this text is essential for computer scientists, engineers, practitioners, researchers, students, and academicians, especially those interested in the areas of internet of things, machine learning, deep learning, and cyber-physical systems.

Dan C. Marinescu
R797 Discovery Miles 7 970 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Complex Systems and Clouds: A Self-Organization and Self-Management Perspective provides insights into the intricate world of self-organizing systems. Large scale distributed computer systems have evolved into very complex systems and are at the point where they need to borrow self-adapting organizing concepts from nature. The book explores complexity in big distributed systems and in the natural processes in physics and chemistry, building a platform for understanding how self-organization in big distributed systems can be achieved. It goes beyond the theoretical description of self-organization to present principles for designing self-organizing systems, and concludes by showing the need for a paradigm shift in the development of large-scale systems from strictly deterministic to non-deterministic and adaptive.

R1,831 Discovery Miles 18 310 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

4 zettabytes (4 billion terabytes) of data generated in 2013, 44 zettabytes predicted for 2020 and 185 zettabytes for 2025. These figures are staggering and perfectly illustrate this new era of data deluge. Data has become a major economic and social challenge. The speed of processing of these data is the weakest link in a computer system: the storage system. It is therefore crucial to optimize this operation. During the last decade, storage systems have experienced a major revolution: the advent of flash memory. Flash Memory Integration: Performance and Energy Issues contributes to a better understanding of these revolutions. The authors offer us an insight into the integration of flash memory in computer systems, their behavior in performance and in power consumption compared to traditional storage systems. The book also presents, in their entirety, various methods for measuring the performance and energy consumption of storage systems for embedded as well as desktop/server computer systems. We are invited on a journey to the memories of the future.

This organizational history relates the role of the National Science Foundation (NSF) in the development of modern computing. Drawing upon new and existing oral histories, extensive use of NSF documents, and the experience of two of the authors as senior managers, this book describes how NSF's programmatic activities originated and evolved to become the primary source of funding for fundamental research in computing and information technologies. The book traces how NSF's support has provided facilities and education for computing usage by all scientific disciplines, aided in institution and professional community building, supported fundamental research in computer science and allied disciplines, and led the efforts to broaden participation in computing by all segments of society. Today, the research and infrastructure facilitated by NSF computing programs are significant economic drivers of American society and industry. For example, NSF supported work that led to the first widely-used web browser, Netscape; sponsored the creation of algorithms at the core of the Google search engine; facilitated the growth of the public Internet; and funded research on the scientific basis for countless other applications and technologies. NSF has advanced the development of human capital and ideas for future advances in computing and its applications. This account is the first comprehensive coverage of NSF's role in the extraordinary growth and expansion of modern computing and its use. It will appeal to historians of computing, policy makers and leaders in government and academia, and individuals interested in the history and development of computing and the NSF.

Dario De Oliveira Rodrigues
R6,170 Discovery Miles 61 700 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

It is known that trust is of the utmost importance in human interactions, and blockchain technology establishes a new type of foundation for financial and political confidence. This new kind of trust is based on cryptographic techniques and distributed in digital networks. In an uncertain world where it is difficult to tell what is real or fake, decentralized organizational networks may prove to be particularly competitive given that this new ""distributed trust"" endows them with an unusual functional autonomy, namely guaranteeing the authenticity, confidentiality, and integrity of the processed data. Besides the direct sharing of information enabled by blockchain, transactions can now also take place with newfound trust and ways to safely manage personal data. It is important to look at these implications, particularly in sectors such as business and healthcare. Political and Economic Implications of Blockchain Technology in Business and Healthcare provides relevant theoretical frameworks on the political and economic impact of blockchain technology, which is thought to be able to redesign human interactions concerning transactions. Specifically, it will give ideas, concepts, and instruments considered relevant to advance the knowledge about ""cryptoeconomics"" and decentralized governance. The chapters will also provide several insights on business applications of this digital innovation, particularly in the healthcare sector, and will explore the ethical impact of the new ""distributed trust"" paradigm resulting from the surge of such a disruptive technology. This book is essential for students and researchers in social and life sciences, professionals and policymakers working in the fields of public and business administration, healthcare workers and researchers, academicians, and students interested in blockchain technology and the political and economic impacts in the industry.
