With near-universal internet access and ever-advancing electronic
devices, the ability to facilitate interactions between various
hardware and software provides endless possibilities. Though
internet of things (IoT) technology is becoming more popular among
individual users and companies, more potential applications of this
technology are being sought every day. There is a need for studies
and reviews that discuss the methodologies, concepts, and possible
problems of a technology that requires little or no human
interaction between systems. The Handbook of Research on the
Internet of Things Applications in Robotics and Automation is a
pivotal reference source on the methods and uses of advancing IoT
technology. While highlighting topics including traffic information
systems, home security, and automatic parking, this book is ideally
designed for network analysts, telecommunication system designers,
engineers, academicians, technology specialists, practitioners,
researchers, students, and software developers seeking current
research on the trends and functions of this life-changing
technology.
America's Pastime with its foreign taproot origination evolved into
the game as we know it. Baseball is traced from its European roots
plus much deeper sources including Adam and Eve (ballplayers) and
the Olympic Games (competitive sport). Baseball beats to the rhythm
of the American culture, sometimes as its direction and other
times, its reflection. The goodness of the game is reflected in
both the players serving as role models for America's youth, with
the Yankee Clipper leading the charge, plus inducing positive
progressive change, including breaking the color barrier in 1947
with Jackie as a Brooklyn Dodger. The shear ugliness of the game
bore its soul to the American public during the Synthetic Era as
characterized by serpentine type Congressional hearings involving
performance-enhancing-drug use. Cultural issues featuring an
intellectual history of PEDs, their effects on performance, leakage
into the tributaries and evolution of the Promethean Project are
well documented.
