In this era of 5G digital communication, the implementation of
industry 4.0 is the need of the hour. The main aim of this
industrial revolution is to completely automate the industry for
better productivity, correct decision making and increased
efficiency. All the concepts of industry 4.0 can only be
implemented with the help of Cyber Physical System aka CPS. This is
a smart system in which complete mechanism is monitored and
controlled by computer-based algorithms. Confidentiality, Integrity
and Availability are the three major concern for providing the add
on security to any organization or a system. It has become a
biggest challenge among the security professionals to secure these
cyber physical systems. Hackers and bad guys are planning various
kinds of attacks on daily basis on these systems. This book
addresses the various security and privacy issues involved in the
cyber physical system. There is need to explore the
interdisciplinary analysis to ensure the resilience of these
systems including different types of cyber threats to these
systems. The book highlights the importance of security in
preventing, detecting, characterizing and mitigating different
types of cyber threats on CPS. The book offers a simple to
understand various organized chapters related to the CPS and their
security for graduate students, faculty, research scholars and
industry professionals. The book offers comprehensive coverage of
the most essential topics, including: Cyber Physical Systems and
Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) Role of Internet of Things and
their security issues in Cyber Physical Systems. Role of Big data
analytic to develop real time solution for CPS. DDoS attacks and
their solutions in CPS. Emulator Mininet for simulating CPS.
Spark-based DDoS Classification System for Cyber-Physical Systems
Drawing on historical, sociological and literary theory, Krishan Kumar examines the rise of English nationalism and issues of race and ethnicity from the Norman Conquest to the present. This study encourages reconsideration of pre-conceptions about nationalism and identity.
Ideas of Englishness, and of the English nation, have become a
matter of renewed interest in recent years as a result of threats
to the integrity of the United Kingdom and the perceived rise of
that unusual thing, English nationalism. Interrogating the idea of
an English nation, and of how that might compare with other
concepts of nationhood, this book enquires into the origins of
English national identity, partly by questioning the assumption of
its long-standing existence. It investigates the role of the
British empire - the largest empire in world history - in the
creation of English and British identities, and the results of its
disappearance. Considering the 'myths of the English' - the ideas
and images that the English and others have constructed about their
history and their sense of themselves as a people - the
distinctiveness of English social thought (in comparison with that
of other nations), the relationship between English and British
identity and the relationship of Englishness to Europe, this
wide-ranging, comparative and historical approach to understanding
the particular nature of Englishness and English national identity,
will appeal to scholars of sociology, cultural studies and history
with interests in English and British national identity and debates
about England's future place in the United Kingdom.
Five centuries after the expulsion of Muslims and Jews from Spain,
Europe is once again becoming a land of Islam. At the beginning of
a new millennium, and in an era marked as one of globalization,
Europe continues to wrestle with the issue of national identity,
especially in the context of its Muslim citizens. Muslim Europe or
Euro-Islam brings together distinguished scholars from Europe, the
United States, and the Middle East in a dynamic discussion about
the Muslim populations living in Europe and about Europe's role in
framing Islam today. The book raises several crucial questions:
Does Islam offer a special case for citizenship? Is assimilation or
multiculturalism the model to be followed in the case of Muslims in
Europe? How powerful a force is Islam in determining identity? And
why is Islam--after centuries of being a presence in Europe--not
considered a European religion? Working at the knotty intersection
of cultural identity, the politics of nations and nationalisms, and
religious persuasions, this is an invaluable anthology of
scholarship that reveals the multifaceted natures of both Europe
and Islam.

What the rulers of empire can teach us about navigating today’s
increasingly interconnected world The empires of the past were
far-flung experiments in multinationalism and multiculturalism, and
they have much to teach us about navigating our own increasingly
globalized world. Visions of Empire sheds critical new light on
their rulers—who they were, how they justified their empires, how
they viewed themselves, and the styles of rule they adopted toward
their subjects. Krishan Kumar provides panoramic and multifaceted
portraits of five major European empires—Ottoman, Habsburg,
Russian/Soviet, British, and French—showing how each, like
ancient Rome, saw itself as the carrier of civilization to the rest
of the world. This compelling book demonstrates how the rulers of
empire, in their quest for a universal world order, left behind a
legacy of multiculturalism and diversity that is uniquely relevant
for us today.

What the rulers of empire can teach us about navigating today's
increasingly interconnected world The empires of the past were
far-flung experiments in multinationalism and multiculturalism, and
have much to teach us about navigating our own increasingly
globalized and interconnected world. Until now, most recent
scholarship on empires has focused on their subject peoples.
Visions of Empire looks at their rulers, shedding critical new
light on who they were, how they justified their empires, how they
viewed themselves, and the styles of rule they adopted toward their
subjects. Krishan Kumar provides panoramic and multifaceted
portraits of five major European empires--Ottoman, Habsburg,
Russian/Soviet, British, and French--showing how each, like ancient
Rome, saw itself as the carrier of universal civilization to the
rest of the world. Sometimes these aims were couched in religious
terms, as with Islam for the Ottomans or Catholicism for the
Habsburgs. Later, the imperial missions took more secular forms, as
with British political traditions or the world communism of the
Soviets. Visions of Empire offers new insights into the
interactions between rulers and ruled, revealing how empire was as
much a shared enterprise as a clash of oppositional interests. It
explores how these empires differed from nation-states,
particularly in how the ruling peoples of empires were forced to
downplay or suppress their own national or ethnic identities in the
interests of the long-term preservation of their rule. This
compelling and in-depth book demonstrates how the rulers of empire,
in their quest for a universal world order, left behind a legacy of
multiculturalism and diversity that is uniquely relevant for us
today.
News from Nowhere (1890) is the most famous work of one of the
greatest British writers and thinkers, William Morris. It is a
utopian picture of a future communist society, drawing on the work
of Ruskin and Marx and written in response to what Morris saw as
soulless and mechanical visions of socialism. In this work of his
last years, Morris distilled many of his leading ideas on politics,
art and society, imagining a world in which capitalism has been
abolished by a workers' revolution and nature and society have
become beautiful habitations for humanity. In an era that has seen
the collapse of state socialism, Morris's damning critique of this
conception, and his positing of a powerful alternative, have
important contemporary resonances.

A balanced mechanics-materials approach and coverage of the latest
developments in biomaterials and electronic materials, the new
edition of this popular text is the most thorough and modern book
available for upper-level undergraduate courses on the mechanical
behavior of materials. To ensure that the student gains a thorough
understanding the authors present the fundamental mechanisms that
operate at micro- and nano-meter level across a wide-range of
materials, in a way that is mathematically simple and requires no
extensive knowledge of materials. This integrated approach provides
a conceptual presentation that shows how the microstructure of a
material controls its mechanical behavior, and this is reinforced
through extensive use of micrographs and illustrations. New worked
examples and exercises help the student test their understanding.
Further resources for this title, including lecture slides of
select illustrations and solutions for exercises, are available

In 1989, from East Berlin to Budapest and Bucharest to Moscow,
communism was falling. The walls were coming down and the world was
being changed in ways that seemed entirely new. The conflict of
ideas and ideals that began with the French Revolution of 1789
culminated in these revolutions, which raised the prospects of the
"return to Europe" of East and Central European nations, the
"restarting of their history," even, for some, the "end of
history." What such assertions and aspirations meant, and what the
larger events that inspired them mean-not just for the world of
history and politics, but for our very understanding of that
world-are the questions Krishan Kumar explores in 1989. A
well-known and widely respected scholar, Kumar places these
revolutions of 1989 in the broadest framework of political and
social thought, helping us see how certain ideas, traditions, and
ideological developments influenced or accompanied these
movements-and how they might continue to play out. Asking questions
about some of the central dilemmas facing modern society in the new
century, Kumar offers critical insight into how these questions
might be answered and how political, social, and historical ideas
and ideals can shape our destiny. Contradictions Series, volume 12

Network security is a serious global concern. The increasing
prevalence of malware and incidents of attacks hinders the
utilization of the Internet to its greatest benefit and incur
significant economic losses. The traditional approaches in securing
systems against threats are designing mechanisms that create a
protective shield, almost always with vulnerabilities. This has
created Intrusion Detection Systems to be developed that complement
traditional approaches. However, with the advancement of computer
technology, the behavior of intrusions has become complex that
makes the work of security experts hard to analyze and detect
intrusions. In order to address these challenges, Artificial
Intelligence based techniques have become a promising solution.
However, the individual techniques report low detection accuracy
and high false positive rate in intrusion detection. The accuracy
may be enhanced by using ensemble techniques comprised of multiple
techniques. The multiple techniques can be combined in a number of
ways to enhance the detection results.

techniques have become a possible solution. However, the
performance of data mining algorithms is affected when no optimized
features are provided. This is because, complex relationships can
be seen as well between the features and intrusion classes
contributing to high computational costs in processing tasks,
subsequently leads to delays in identifying intrusions. Feature
selection is thus important in detecting intrusions by allowing the
data mining system to focus on what is really important.
