The internet of things (IoT) has emerged to address the need for
connectivity and seamless integration with other devices as well as
big data platforms for analytics. However, there are challenges
that IoT-based applications face including design and
implementation issues; connectivity problems; data gathering,
storing, and analyzing in cloud-based environments; and IoT
security and privacy issues. Emerging Trends in IoT and Integration
With Data Science is a critical reference source that provides
theoretical frameworks and research findings on IoT and big data
integration. Highlighting topics that include wearable sensors,
machine learning, machine intelligence, and mobile computing, this
book serves professionals who want to improve their understanding
of the strategic role of trust at different levels of the
information and knowledge society. It is therefore of most value to
data scientists, computer scientists, data analysts, IT
specialists, academicians, professionals, researchers, and students
working in the field of information and knowledge management in
various disciplines that include but are not limited to information
and communication sciences, administrative sciences and management,
education, sociology, computer science, etc. Moreover, the book
provides insights and supports executives concerned with the
management of expertise, knowledge, information, and organizational
development in different types of work communities and
environments.
The damaging effects of cyberattacks to an industry like the
Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) can be
tremendous. From the least important to the worst ones, one can
mention for example the damage in the reputation of vehicle
manufacturers, the increased denial of customers to adopt CCAM, the
loss of working hours (having direct impact on the European GDP),
material damages, increased environmental pollution due e.g., to
traffic jams or malicious modifications in sensors' firmware, and
ultimately, the great danger for human lives, either they are
drivers, passengers or pedestrians. Connected vehicles will soon
become a reality on our roads, bringing along new services and
capabilities, but also technical challenges and security threats.
To overcome these risks, the CARAMEL project has developed several
anti-hacking solutions for the new generation of vehicles. CARAMEL
(Artificial Intelligence-based Cybersecurity for Connected and
Automated Vehicles), a research project co-funded by the European
Union under the Horizon 2020 framework programme, is a project
consortium with 15 organizations from 8 European countries together
with 3 Korean partners. The project applies a proactive approach
based on Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques to
detect and prevent potential cybersecurity threats to autonomous
and connected vehicles. This approach has been addressed based on
four fundamental pillars, namely: Autonomous Mobility, Connected
Mobility, Electromobility, and Remote Control Vehicle. This book
presents theory and results from each of these technical
directions.
Online high school education is challenging with limited resources
for teachers to turn to. In most cases, teachers rely on
trial-and-error. This research-based and practitioner-focused text
provides best practice techniques and utilizes analogies from
brick-and-mortar education to provide a conceptual framework to a
better understanding of how online education functions and how to
be engage students and how to build and maintain a positive digital
culture. This book provides real-world solutions to online and
hybrid educators. The aim of this is to train educators to develop
online culture, healthy and inclusive communication, and how to use
the online classroom environment in parallel or stand-alone with a
face-to-face classroom. Engagement strategies will be discussed as
well as the use of multi-tiered systems of support to engage
students. The desired impact is to increase learning, growth and to
prepare high school students for the next step in their academic
career.
Edward Snowden, the man who risked everything to expose the US government's system of mass surveillance, reveals for the first time the story of his life, including how he helped to build that system and what motivated him to try to bring it down.
In 2013, twenty-nine-year-old Edward Snowden shocked the world when he broke with the American intelligence establishment and revealed that the United States government was secretly pursuing the means to collect every single phone call, text message, and email. The result would be an unprecedented system of mass surveillance with the ability to pry into the private lives of every person on earth. Six years later, Snowden reveals for the very first time how he helped to build this system and why he was moved to expose it.
Spanning the bucolic Beltway suburbs of his childhood and the clandestine CIA and NSA postings of his adulthood, Permanent Record is the extraordinary account of a bright young man who grew up online - a man who became a spy, a whistleblower, and, in exile, the Internet's conscience.

This book investigates multiple facets of the emerging discipline
of Tangible, Embodied, and Embedded Interaction (TEI). This is a
story of atoms and bits. We explore the interweaving of the
physical and digital, toward understanding some of their wildly
varying hybrid forms and behaviors. Spanning conceptual,
philosophical, cognitive, design, and technical aspects of
interaction, this book charts both history and aspirations for the
future of TEI. We examine and celebrate diverse trailblazing works,
and provide wide-ranging conceptual and pragmatic tools toward
weaving the animating fires of computation and technology into
evocative tangible forms. We also chart a path forward for TEI
engagement with broader societal and sustainability challenges that
will profoundly (re)shape our children's and grandchildren's
futures. We invite you all to join this quest.
