Wearable Telemedicine Technology for the Healthcare Industry:
Product Design and Development focuses on recent advances and
benefits of wearable telemedicine techniques for remote health
monitoring and prevention of chronic conditions, providing real
time feedback and help with rehabilitation and biomedical
applications. Readers will learn about various techniques used by
software engineers, computer scientists and biomedical engineers to
apply intelligent systems, artificial intelligence, machine
learning, virtual reality and augmented reality to gather,
transmit, analyze and deliver real-time clinical and biological
data to clinicians, patients and researchers. Wearable telemedicine
technology is currently establishing its place with large-scale
impact in many healthcare sectors because information about patient
health conditions can be gathered anytime and anywhere outside of
traditional clinical settings, hence saving time, money and even
lives.
Data Science for COVID-19, Volume 2: Societal and Medical
Perspectives presents the most current and leading-edge research
into the applications of a variety of data science techniques for
the detection, mitigation, treatment and elimination of the
COVID-19 virus. At this point, Cognitive Data Science is the most
powerful tool for researchers to fight COVID-19. Thanks to instant
data-analysis and predictive techniques, including Artificial
Intelligence, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Data Mining, and
computational modeling for processing large amounts of data,
recognizing patterns, modeling new techniques, and improving both
research and treatment outcomes is now possible.
Nanotechnology continues to contribute to the progress of
innovations in the area of forensic science ranging from sensing,
DNA monitoring, and counterfeiting to fingerprinting. In recent
years, functional nanomaterials are widely applied in nanoscience
and forensic investigation. They can be used in future
interdisciplinary research by scientists, engineers, and
biotechnologists. Modeling and Simulation of Functional
Nanomaterials for Forensic Investigation focuses on multiple
applications related to forensics and provides information linked
with nanoparticles. This book provides nanotechnology results in
improving the sensitivity of established forensic techniques. It
further focuses on different fabrication and characterization
techniques of nanomaterials and relates their characteristics with
forensic applications. Covering topics such as explosive detection,
nano-forensic testing, and nano-trackers, this premier reference
source is a comprehensive resource for material engineers, chemical
engineers, nanotechnologists, biotechnologists, forensic
scientists, students and educators of higher education,
researchers, and academicians.
This book offers a unique perspective on September 11 and our world
after this tragic event, sharing lessons from an Asian religious
experience that can help heal a world troubled by religious
conflicts and deepening divisions, and promote a positive global
transformation. Existing literature regarding the events of
September 11 and our world afterward has focused mostly on the West
and the Middle East. Asian Perspectives on the World's Religions
after September 11 extends this discussion to include Asia-a
continent and culture far too important to be ignored in any
assessment of the global impact of this event. The book is
organized along the following themes, as they emerged
post-September 11th: religion and civilizational dialogue;
religion, conflict, and peace; religion and human rights; religion
and ethics; religion and the arts; religion, hermeneutics, and
literature; religion and gender; religion and ecology; and religion
and globalization. Individuals who are studying or teaching
political science, international relations, philosophy, ethics,
Asian studies, or religious studies will find the text invaluable,
while general readers will appreciate the largely unvoiced Asian
perspective on this topic.
This book focuses on the fundamentals of blockchain technology
along with the means and methods of its integration with Internet
of Things (IoT). The book allows the reader to have a deeper
understanding of blockchain technology, IoT and various application
areas wherein both technologies can be implemented. The book serves
the purpose of providing knowledge about the fundamentals of
blockchain and IoT to a common reader along with allowing a
research scholar to identify some futuristic problem areas that
emerge from the convergence of both technologies. Furthermore, the
authors discuss relevant application areas such as smart city,
e-healthcare, smart travel, etc. throughout the course of the book.
The book also talks through a few case studies illustrating the
implementation and benefits of using blockchain and IoT. Provides a
comprehensive view of blockchain technology and its integration
with IoT; Facilitates in having a valuable understanding of various
application areas pertaining to blockchain and IoT; Assists the
reader in exploring new research areas wherein blockchain and IoT
can find their applicability based upon their list of benefits.

Elected in 2008, Barack Obama made history as the first African
American president of the United States. Though recognized as the
son of a white Kansas-born mother and a black Kenyan father, the
media and public have nonetheless pigeonholed him as black, and he
too self-identifies as such. Obama's experience as an American with
black and white ancestry, though compelling because of his
celebrity, is not unique and raises several questions about the
growing number of black-white biracial Americans today: How are
they perceived by others with regard to race? How do they tend to
identify? And why? Taking a social psychological approach, Biracial
in America identifies influencing factors and several underlying
processes shaping multidimensional racial identities. This study
also investigates the ways in which biracial Americans perform race
in their day-to-day lives. One's race isn't simply something that
others prescribe onto the individual but something that individuals
"do." The strategies and motivations for performing black, white,
and biracial identities are explored.
