This book employs game theory to warfare and in particular to
military operations. It aims at scrutinizing the validity of the
two ideas that have governed the literature on war and warfighting:
One is the Clausewitzian Fog of War, which suggests that he who is
able to "see" through the gunsmoke and observe his opponent's moves
before he has to commit to some strategy himself, should be able to
gain an advantage over that enemy; the other is the tradition of
understanding military conflict as a zero-sum game. Combined, these
ideas seem to imply that war always gives rise to a second-mover
advantage. This book questions the validity of this presumption at
the operational level of military planning. It provides a simple
but rigorous game-theoretic framework in order to analyse
operational alternatives for a whole range of typical conflicts
Western military forces are facing, including the most recent ones
such as Anti-Access/Area-Denial and supporting host nations'
counterinsurgency campaigns.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 6th International
Conference on Intelligent Transport Systems, INTSYS 2022, which was
held in Lisbon, Portugal, in December 15-16, 2022. With the
globalization of trade and transportation and the consequent
multi-modal solutions used, additional challenges are faced by
organizations and countries. Intelligent Transport Systems make
transport safer, more efficient, and more sustainable by applying
information and communication technologies to all transportation
modes.The 15 revised full papers in this book were selected from 45
submissions and are organized in three thematic sessions on smart
city; transportation modes and AI; intelligent transportation and
electric vehicles.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 5th International
Conference on Intelligent Transport Systems, INTSYS 2021, which was
held in November 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was
held virtually. With the globalization of trade and transportation
and the consequent multi-modal solutions used, additional
challenges are faced by organizations and countries. Intelligent
Transport Systems make transport safer, more efficient, and more
sustainable by applying information and communication technologies
to all transportation modes. The 15 revised full papers in this
book were selected from 31 submissions and are organized in three
thematic sessions on mobility; blockchain and disaster management;
and data analytics.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third EAI
International Conference on Intelligent Transport Systems, INTSYS
2019, which was held in Braga, Portugal, in December 2019. The 23
revised full papers were selected from 35 submissions and are
organized in four thematic sessions on modelling, optimization,
tracking and prediction, visualization and sensing.
Telemedicine is a rapidly developing application of clinical
medicine where medical information is transferred via telephone,
the Internet or other networks for the purpose of consulting, and
sometimes remote medical procedures or examinations. Telemedicine
may be as simple as two health professionals discussing a case over
the telephone, or as complex as using satellite technology and
video-conferencing equipment to conduct a real-time consultation
between medical specialists in two different countries.
Telemedicine generally refers to the use of communications and
information technologies for the delivery of clinical care. This
book presents the latest research in this field from around the
globe.
