This book provides a multidisciplinary overview of the design and
implementation of systems for remote patient monitoring and
healthcare. Readers are guided step-by-step through the components
of such a system and shown how they could be integrated in a
coherent framework for deployment in practice. The authors explain
planning from subsystem design to complete integration and
deployment, given particular application constraints. Readers will
benefit from descriptions of the clinical requirements underpinning
the entire application scenario, physiological parameter sensing
techniques, information processing approaches and overall,
application dependent system integration. Each chapter ends with a
discussion of practical design challenges and two case studies are
included to provide practical examples and design methods for two
remote healthcare systems with different needs.

This book examines how territorial, civilisational and cultural
location determines one's gaze and attitude while representing a
contested space like Tibet. It analyses representations of Tibet in
three novels: James Hilton's Lost Horizon (1933), Jamyang Norbu's
The Mandala of Sherlock Holmes (1999) and Kaushik Barua's Windhorse
(2013). It shows how these novels project different types of gaze -
insider, outsider and insider-outsider - and explores them within
the context of some contemporary Tibetan activist writers. The book
also looks at Tibetan exilic writings and virtual activities of the
Tibetan activists whose programmes and rhetoric counter the age-old
image of the Tibetans as passive and non-violent people. It shows
how activists utilise social networking as an effective platform to
counter imperialist occupation of Tibet by China. It includes
interviews of eight Anglophone Tibetan writers - Tenzin Tsundue,
Thubten Samphel, Tsering Namgyal Khortsa, Tsering Wangmo Dhompa,
Jamyang Norbu, Tenzin Dickie, Bhuchung D. Sonam, and an Indian
writer who has written on Tibet, Kaushik Barua. Interdisciplinary,
accessible and engaging, this book presents one of the first
studies on how Tibet has been represented in English fiction. It
will be of interest to scholars and researchers of literature,
media and cultural studies, politics, history and China studies.
This book explains how to perform data de-noising, in large scale,
with a satisfactory level of accuracy. Three main issues are
considered. Firstly, how to eliminate the error propagation from
one stage to next stages while developing a filtered model.
Secondly, how to maintain the positional importance of data whilst
purifying it. Finally, preservation of memory in the data is
crucial to extract smart data from noisy big data. If, after the
application of any form of smoothing or filtering, the memory of
the corresponding data changes heavily, then the final data may
lose some important information. This may lead to wrong or
erroneous conclusions. But, when anticipating any loss of
information due to smoothing or filtering, one cannot avoid the
process of denoising as on the other hand any kind of analysis of
big data in the presence of noise can be misleading. So, the entire
process demands very careful execution with efficient and smart
models in order to effectively deal with it.
Circulant matrices have been around for a long time and have been
extensively used in many scientific areas. This book studies the
properties of the eigenvalues for various types of circulant
matrices, such as the usual circulant, the reverse circulant, and
the k-circulant when the dimension of the matrices grow and the
entries are random. In particular, the behavior of the spectral
distribution, of the spectral radius and of the appropriate point
processes are developed systematically using the method of moments
and the various powerful normal approximation results. This
behavior varies according as the entries are independent, are from
a linear process, and are light- or heavy-tailed. Arup Bose
obtained his B.Stat., M.Stat. and Ph.D. degrees from the Indian
Statistical Institute. He has been on its faculty at the
Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Unit, Kolkata, India since
1991. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics,
and of all three national science academies of India. He is a
recipient of the S.S. Bhatnagar Prize and the C.R. Rao Award. He is
the author of three books: Patterned Random Matrices, Large
Covariance and Autocovariance Matrices (with Monika Bhattacharjee)
and U-Statistics, M_m-Estimators and Resampling (with Snigdhansu
Chatterjee). Koushik Saha obtained a B.Sc. in Mathematics from
Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandiara, Belur and an M.Sc. in
Mathematics from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay. He obtained
his Ph.D. degree from the Indian Statistical Institute under the
supervision of Arup Bose. His thesis on circulant matrices received
high praise from the reviewers. He has been on the faculty of the
Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay
since 2014.
