Green Energy is increasingly becoming an important component for all individuals and governments of the world. According to Brundtland Commission Report (Our Common Future, 1987) of United Nations states: ?sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.? Green Energy is widely considered as Sustainable Energy/ Re-newable Energy which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generation to meet their own needs. In the global movement of Green Energy ?Sustainable Renewable Energy, most of the countries decided to be a part ofthis movement of saving our planet and our future generation. This effort is supported by eleven international authors who are experts in their respective fields. The output is this book ? Green Energy. This book is comprises of six chapters. The first chapter discusses how global temperature can be controlled with the help of technology. Second chapter explains about green buildings. It explains about costs and benefits of green houses. Third chapter discusses about biofuels. Fourth chapter discusses about technical feasibility of Renewable Electricity Generation in Nunavut. Fifth chapter presents a summary of 15 years of grass root project experience in Partnership with impoverished, remote high altitude communities in the Nepal Himalayas. Sixth chapter argues that, contrary to popular belief, sustainable sources, in particular solar power, are capable of providing allthe energy the Europe needs at reasonable cost. Contents: Preface: 1. Carbon Capture and Storage Need and Prospects; 2. The Economics of Sustainability: The Business Case that?Makes Itself; 3. Bioenergy in Developing Countries: Lessons Learned in?Brazil and Perspectives in Other Countries; 4. Technical Feasibility of Renewable?Electricity Generation in Nunavut; 5.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Intelligent Interactive Technologies and Multimedia, IITM 2013, held in Allahabad, India, in March 2013. The 15 revised full papers and the 12 revised short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 90 submissions. The papers present the latest research and development in the areas of intelligent interactive technologies, human-computer interaction and multimedia.

India is showing incredibly strong appearance in Information Technology (IT) sector worldwide, but the benefits of IT revolution have not actually percolated into the everyday life of the common man, particularly in rural areas. National E Governance Plan is a major initiative of the Government of India, the first time under which a concerted effort is being made to take Information Technology to the masses in areas of concern to the common man. It aims to make services available online, ensuring that all citizens would have access to them, thereby improving the quality of basic governance on an unprecedented scale. This book attempts to disseminate information about several E Governance projects and possible Data Mining benefits which are the future of good governance in India. Strategic Management of these projects through Data Mining would certainly encourage policy makers to understand better models of E Governance, thorough evaluation of projects, perceptive interrelations between projects, keeping track of the objectives and outcomes and to develop a more collaborative approach towards implementation of the National e- Governance Plan. This revolutionary approach will help the government in assessing the upcoming requirements and developing competencies for further project management, thereby making a difference in the lives of millions. It will help innovators to find out optimum solutions to achieve the end objectives of E Governance. Technical topics discussed in the book include: * E Governance * Fundamental of Data, Data Warehousing, Data Mining, E Governance * World Wide Status of E Governance * Status of E Governance projects in India * E Governance Data Management Framework * E Governance Data Center * Perspective Application of Data Warehousing and Data Mining in E Governance * Case Studies on Education and Health Data Mining * E Governance Data Mining Applications in Various Government Departments, Public Sector, Private Sector * SWOT and PESTLE Analysis for Data Warehousing, Data Mining, E Governance Data Warehousing and Data Mining are related technologies which have seen a significant boost in the last decades, in a way that many of their concepts and techniques have reached a significant level of maturity. They are applied today in most fields of human activity, from commercial to scientific or industrial areas. Today, decision support, data mining, trend analysis and pattern discovery have a large impact on businesses and science alike. Given this evolution, it is important to understand the potential advantages of Data Mining and Data Warehousing and their positive effects on E Governance applications. The book "E Governance Data Center, Data Warehousing and Data Mining: Vision to Realities" is useful for students, application developers, government officials, policy makers, as well as researchers involved in E Governance and Data Mining Applications. This book presents an overall picture of the E Governance Data Mining applications, including Data Management Framework, Data Center and Data Warehousing applications along with possible research directions. An important motivation for writing this book was the need to build an organized framework for E Governance using Data Mining-a challenging task, owing to the extensive multidisciplinary nature of this fastdeveloping field. We hope that this book will encourage people with different backgrounds and experiences to exchange their views regarding Data Mining applications in E Governance so as to contribute toward the establishment of good governance for the developed society.

Emerging technologies have been successfully employed within different disciplines improving the quality of life globally in India these have been employed to address the multifarious issues in a limited manner to improve the way of life for individuals with different disabilities. Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad, therefore, organized International and National Seminars since 2008 to deliberate on the application of information communication technologies ICT] in the rehabilitation of people with disabilities . Domain experts have recognized that management of differently abled individuals requires participation of multidisciplinary experts. We also require an enormous bank of skilled, qualified trained manpower with support to keep themselves in tune with latest technology and developments. We also face the problems of having to deal with individuals located countrywide; inadequate ICT-based infrastructure to assist with accessing services of experts that are based in urban areas. This is one of the major constraints for a sustained and effective therapeutic program. This is the fifth publication under the IIIT-A Series on e-Governance. It is a collection of 20 articles based on the presentations made in the Seminars. This book will of interest to all stakeholders in the disability rehabilitation management as the population of people with disabilities in growing. The articles cover the following four areas on disability rehabilitation management: Rehabilitation of Differently Abled Persons: Overview and Issues Infrastructure and potentials for use of ICT in Disability Rehabilitation ICT Initiatives for Rehabilitation of Differently Abled Persons Assistive Technology for Differently Abled Persons - the road ahead
