R3,428 Discovery Miles 34 280 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Drought is a slow-onset disaster. The impacts are invisible and are often reflected as a complex socio-economic phenomenon. Due to changes in the climatic conditions droughts are increasingly occurring in non-traditional drought prone areas. The Asian monsoon region is one of these areas where consecutive years of droughts are causing severe problems for the lives and livelihoods of the communities. The impacts are becoming increasingly more visible, and drawing the attention of policy makers and professionals from national and international levels. In this context, this book outlines the characteristics and challenges of the Asian monsoon drought and highlights innovative solutions and approaches undertaken in different parts of the region. A ready-reference for field practitioners it combines academic research and field practices, and builds on actual implementation experiences of drought risk reduction. Providing a thorough examination of the subject and region, chapters cover droughts in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar, Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka. It concludes with an article on cross-cutting experiences and drought risk reduction in the Asian Monsoon Region.

Over the past several decades, applications permeated by advances in digital signal processing have undergone unprecedented growth in capabilities. The editors and authors of High Performance Embedded Computing Handbook: A Systems Perspective have been significant contributors to this field, and the principles and techniques presented in the handbook are reinforced by examples drawn from their work. The chapters cover system components found in today's HPEC systems by addressing design trade-offs, implementation options, and techniques of the trade, then solidifying the concepts with specific HPEC system examples. This approach provides a more valuable learning tool, Because readers learn about these subject areas through factual implementation cases drawn from the contributing authors' own experiences. Discussions include: Key subsystems and components Computational characteristics of high performance embedded algorithms and applications Front-end real-time processor technologies such as analog-to-digital conversion, application-specific integrated circuits, field programmable gate arrays, and intellectual property-based design Programmable HPEC systems technology, including interconnection fabrics, parallel and distributed processing, performance metrics and software architecture, and automatic code parallelization and optimization Examples of complex HPEC systems representative of actual prototype developments Application examples, including radar, communications, electro-optical, and sonar applications The handbook is organized around a canonical framework that helps readers navigate through the chapters, and it concludes with a discussion of future trends in HPEC systems. The material is covered at a level suitable for practicing engineers and HPEC computational practitioners and is easily adaptable to their own implementation requirements.

Vietnam - Journeys of Body, Mind, and Spirit (Paperback): Van Huy Nguyen, Laurel Kendall Vietnam - Journeys of Body, Mind, and Spirit (Paperback)

"Vietnam: Journeys of Body, Mind, and Spirit "takes the reader on an informed and engaging journey into the social and ritual life of contemporary Vietnam. Created to accompany the first major collaboration between a Vietnamese museum and an American museum on an exhibition of Vietnamese culture, this book moves beyond the troubled wartime history of both nations to a deeper portrayal of how Vietnamese of different ages, ethnicities, occupations, and circumstances live at the start of the twenty-first century. The contributors--most of whom live and work in Vietnam, while others have spent many years in intimate association with Vietnamese life--offer a unique perspective on the country and its diverse cultural mosaic. The text is complemented by a rich collection of photographs and illustrations that capture the complexity and nuance of daily life.
The journeys portrayed in this volume cut across virtually every domain of Vietnamese experience. Some take place on roads, railways, rivers, and footpaths, as family members come home for the New Year and traders carry goods precariously balanced on bicycles. Others are metaphorical: life is a journey marked by significant rituals, and the year is a journey mapped by a calendar with holidays as milestones along the way. Souls travel to the netherworld, while gods and ancestors return to the human world during celebrations in their honor.
Although the Vietnam War dominated the consciousness of a generation of Americans, few understand the country and few can imagine what it is like today. Appearing more than a decade after Vietnam's entrance into the global market and more than a quarter century after the cessation of hostilities between the Vietnamese and U.S. governments, this book provides a new understanding of how Vietnamese live, work, and celebrate critical passages of life and time.

R2,772 Discovery Miles 27 720 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Um Innovationen zu generieren, sind Investitionen in die Forschung und Entwicklung (F&E) notig. Angesichts der hohen Kosten hierfur sind immer mehr Unternehmen bereit, ihre F&E gemeinschaft-lich - selbst mit Konkurrenten - durchzufuhren und ihr so erworbenes Wissen miteinander zu teilen. Parallel dazu hat das staatliche Engagement der Forderung von kollaborativer Forschung zugenom-men. In den grossen Industrielandern haben die Regierungen begonnen, F&E-Kooperationen ungeachtet ihrer wettbewerbsrechtlichen Zweifelhaftigkeit voranzutreiben. Welche Motive konnen die Un-ternehmen haben, die F&E zusammen mit ihren Konkurrenten zu betreiben? Und welches Interesse hat der Staat daran, solche F&E-Kooperationen noch zu unterstutzen? Spillover spielen eine wichtige Rolle fur die Entstehung von F&E-Kooperationen. Anhand verschiede-ner Modelle werden die Anreize zur Bildung sowie die Auswirkung von F&E-Kooperationen auf den Wettbewerb analysiert. Im praktischen Teil dieses Buches werden die F&E-Kooperationen an einem konkreten Beispiel untersucht. Die Halbleiterindustrie bietet sich deshalb so gut als Fallbeispiel an, da sie als eine der dynamischsten und forschungsintensivsten Industrien gilt. 2. neu bearbeitete Auflage 2009
