The Web of Things (WoT) is a concept that describes approaches,
programming tools and software architectural systems, which
interface networks of real-world objects with the World Wide Web.
The book is organized into 11 chapters, each focusing on a unique
wireless technological aspect of the Web of Things, and it aims to
comprehensively cover each of its various applications, including:
A strong emphasis on WoT problems and solutions, identifying the
main open issues, innovations and latest technologies behind WoT A
blend of theoretical and simulation-based problems for better
understanding of the concepts behind WoT Various exemplifying
applications in which the use of WoT is very attractive and an
inspiration for future applications The book will be useful to
researchers, software developers and undergraduate and postgraduate
students, as well as practitioners.
Maria of Austria was one of the longest surviving Renaissance
Empresses but until now has received little attention by
biographers. This book explores her life, actions, and management
of domestic affairs, which became a feared example of how an
Empress could control alternative spheres of power. The volume
traces the path of a Castilian orphan infanta, raised among her
mother's Portuguese ladies-in-waiting and who spent thirty years of
marriage between the imperial courts of Prague and Vienna. Empress
Maria encapsulates the complex dynastic functioning of the
Habsburgs: devotedly married to her cousin Maximilian II, Maria had
constant communication with her father Charles V and her brother
Philip II while preserving her Spanish background. Her unique
intertwining of roles and positions allows a fresh approach to
female agency and the discussion of current issues: the rules of
dynastic entente, the negotiation of discreet political roles for
royal women, the reassessment of informal diplomacy, and the
creation of dynastic networks parallel to the embassies. With
chronological chapters discussing Empress Maria's roles such as
infanta, regent, Empress, and a widow, this volume is the perfect
resource for scholars and students interested in the history of
gender, court culture, and early modern Central Europe.

The year 2013 saw the launch of the largest, most influential
investment initiative in recent memory: China's Belt and Road
Initiative (BRI). This globe-spanning strategy has reshaped local
economies and regional networks, and it has become a contested
subject for scholars and practitioners alike. How should we make
sense of the complex interactions that the BRI has enabled?
Understanding these processes requires truly global perspectives
alongside careful attention to the role that local actors play in
giving shape to individual BRI projects. The contributions in
Global Perspectives on China's Belt and Road Initiative: Asserting
Agency through Regional Connectivity provide both 'big picture'
assessments of China's role in regional and global interactions and
detailed case studies that home in on the role agency plays in BRI
dynamics. Written by leading area studies scholars with diverse
disciplinary expertise, this book reveals how Chinese efforts to
recalibrate the world are taken up, challenged, revamped, and
reworked in diverse contexts around the world.
