This new volume covers the fusion of IoT and wireless communication
technology for real-life applications. It discusses the current
developments, trends, and latest usage of technology in wireless
sensor networks (WSNs) and IoT, which offer improvement in many
areas, including in enabling smart homes, in agricultural systems,
for security systems, for university monitoring systems, and more.
The volume also provides a theoretical analysis and discussion of
the factors influencing smart sensing, exploring the
state-of-the-art IoT elements that are designed to be analogous to
WSNs. It looks at advancements in IoT systems along with a two-way
usage with wireless sensor networks that span the gap between the
physical and virtual worlds, leading to a hyperconnected society
where devices are not only used to exchange data but also are smart
devices with more capabilities. The chapters reveal how these

The knowledge of mechanics of materials is the very foundation for
advanced topics in mechanical, civil, aerospace, chemical, ceramic
engineering and materials science.This comprehensive book presents
materials with a three-dimensional approach rather than
two-dimensional analysis adopted by existing books. It develops the
required background thoroughly before basic elements such as stress
and strain tensors are formulated. The presentation is richly
filled with anecdotes, illustrations and solved examples. Special
care has been taken to carry out algebra and the derivations in
small digestible steps.This useful reference text largely meets the
requirements of computer-aided engineering (CAE) softwares which
are widely used in industrial-sector and research & development
laboratories to design structural members.
Singh analyses the influence of Xi's 'Chinese Dream' on China's
foreign relations and security postures. Xi Jinping's rise has led
to a paradigm shift in many aspects of China's domestic and
international politics. A key element of this has been the
ideological vision shorthanded as the 'Chinese Dream', combining
elements of nationalism, Confucian ideology, and economic
expansionism. Singh evaluates the various changes in China's
nominally communist ideology in the post-Mao era, with an emphasis
on the implications for China's economic and security relations
with other countries. He particularly focusses on China's approach
to South Asia and the Indian Ocean Region, key elements of China's
strategy. An insightful guide to understanding the direction of
China's foreign and security policy, and especially its impact on
India-China relations.

Environmental change is affecting the world's agricultural
productivity. This is coupled with an increase in population:
according to the United Nations Department for Economic and Social
Affairs, the global population is estimated to reach 9.7 billion by
2050. Therefore, the current situation requires that we develop
climate-smart technologies to improve crop productivity to sustain
the ever-rising global population. Current-day farmers are
introducing a considerable amount of agrochemicals to enhance crop
productivity. Indiscriminate agrochemical application has altered
not only the soil's physic-chemical and biological properties but
also affected human health through food chain contamination.
Cyanobacteria, under these changing environmental conditions, may
help to resolve the problem significantly without changing the
natural soil properties. In spite of their well-known stress
tolerance potential, most of the cyanobacterial stress management
and signaling pathways are yet to be fully characterized.
Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore cyanobacterial
metabolism under stress as well as their regulatory pathways to
exploit them for sustainable agriculture. In recent decades, the
application of cyanobacteria has attracted scientists because of
uniqueness, better adaptability, and synthetic products. Diverse
cyanobacterial communities with the ability to fix atmospheric
nitrogen, together with their photosynthetic properties, have
demonstrated their application under field conditions. Several
cyanobacterial species have thus been exploited to enhance soil
fertility, mitigate biotic and abiotic stress, and contamination
management. Cyanobacterial Lifestyle and its Applications in
Biotechnology has been designed to discuss different aspects of
cyanobacterial physiology with the aim of helping to provide a
better understanding of advanced cyanobacterial molecular biology
and their metabolism to uncover the potential of cyanobacteria in
the tailoring of stress smart crops for sustainable agriculture.
Chapters include valuable information about the role of
cyanobacteria in the evolution of life, cyanobacterial
photosynthesis, stress-tolerant cyanobacterium, biological nitrogen
fixation, circadian rhythms, genetics and molecular biology of
abiotic stress responses.

endophytes, along with their ecological, morphological and
physiological aspects. In addition, bioactive compounds and their
applications are explored. Increasing attention has been paid by
scientists across the globe to Cyanobacteria as they are ubiquitous
microbes and, undoubtedly, an important organism in terms of carbon
as well as nitrogen fixation. However, the research on these
organisms is limited in terms of their diversity and distribution
across the globe.
This book covers recent advances in cyanobacterial research. It
deals with diversity, evolutionary biology, stress physiology,
molecular biology of stress responses, and biotechnology of this
group of prokaryotes. Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous and,
undoubtedly, agriculturally microorganisms in terms of carbon and
nitrogen fixation. In addition, cyanobacteria have long been used
to fertilize crops and are a source of protein for humans. In
parallel with the advances in cyanobacterial research in the 21st
century, the development and application of innovative techniques
in molecular biotechnology has widened the spectrum of commercial
applications and potential exploitation of cyanobacteria. This book
will be of interest to both new and experienced researchers
involved in cyanobacterial molecular biology, ecology, and
industrial biotechnology. This collection of chapters from experts
also serves as essential reading for undergraduate and graduate
students of to understand the importance of cyanobacteria in
agriculture, ecology, microbial physiology, and environmental
sciences.
