This book explores how advances in graphic processing units (GPUs),
programmable logic devices (TPUs), and field-programmable gate
arrays have altered the serverless computing landscape (FPGAs).
Distributed system architectures and implementations have undergone
significant changes due to the popularity of serverless computing.
Making and releasing product applications, doing market research,
and maintaining customer interactions might all benefit from the
reduced infrastructure expenses made possible by serverless
computing. This book is a great resource for teachers and students
interested in learning more about serverless computing. Some of the
main questions surrounding serverless technology, such as
scalability and performance distribution, are answered. Concepts
and fundamentals of computing performance such as cost-free
operation, good time and resource management, fairness, and
interoperability are discussed. Serverless is at the forefront of
this shift, which has made data-intensive, distributed
applications, and open-source platforms essential for any modern
computer to function. Data-centric queuing, real-time logging and
monitoring, querying, and alarms are all examples of serverless
services.

This book uses primary evidence to assess the value of agro-input
and service delivery business models in terms of their
inclusiveness, effectiveness and impact from a small farmer
perspective, in the form of case studies in three Indian states:
Punjab, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. The services discussed include
custom rental of farm machinery and equipment, franchising for
backward and forward linkage for farmers and the supermarkets for
delivery of farm inputs, and extension services. The book examines
agro-input and service delivery business models as institutional
innovations for inclusive and effective delivery of such services
in the small farmer context, based on primary data from the
agencies designing and implementing such models and the farmers who
make use of these inputs and services. Further, it identifies major
issues and challenges in the delivery of farm inputs and services
across regions and types of farmers and examines possible policy
and enabling provisions to promote cost-effective and high-quality
agro-input delivery channels.

Over the past few years, the demand for data traffic has
experienced explosive growth thanks to the increasing need to stay
online. New applications of communications, such as wearable
devices, autonomous systems, drones, and the Internet of Things
(IoT), continue to emerge and generate even more data traffic with
vastly different performance requirements. With the COVID-19
pandemic, the need to stay online has become even more crucial, as
most of the fields, would they be industrial, educational,
economic, or service-oriented, had to go online as best as they
can. As the data traffic is expected to continuously strain the
capacity of future communication networks, these networks need to
evolve consistently in order to keep up with the growth of data
traffic. Thus, more intelligent processing, operation, and
optimization will be needed for tomorrow’s communication
networks. The Sixth Generation (6G) technology is latest approach
for mobile systems or edge devices in terms of reduce traffic
congestions, energy consumption blending with IoT devices
applications. The 6G network works beyond the 5G (B5G),
where we can use various platforms as an application e.g. fog
computing enabled IoT networks, Intelligent techniques for SDN
network, 6G enabled healthcare industry, energy aware location
management. Still this technology must resolve few challenges like
security, IoT enabled trust network. This book will focus on the
use of AI/ML-based techniques to solve issues related to 6G enabled
networks, their layers, as well as their applications. It will be a
collection of original contributions regarding state-of-the-art
AI/ML-based solutions for signal detection, channel modeling,
resource optimization, routing protocol design, transport layer
optimization, user/application behavior prediction 6G enabled
software-defined networking, congestion control, communication
network optimization, security, and anomaly detection. The proposed
edited book emphasis on the 6G network blended with Fog-IoT
networks to introduce its applications and future perspectives that
helps the researcher to apply this technique in their domain and it
may also helpful to resolve the challenges and future opportunities
with 6G networks.
Use of cutting fluids in metal cutting enhances machining
performance. However, the use of cutting fluids results in problems
such as high cost, pollution and hazards to operator's health. To
overcome the problems related to the use of cutting fluids,
researchers have made efforts to search for some alternatives to
minimize or even avoid the use of cutting fluids in machining
operations. MQL is one of the safe and environment friendly
alternatives sought to reduce the use of coolant lubricant fluids
in metal cutting.
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of the most widely
disseminated manufacturing technologies, in particular as regards
the generation of accurate and complex geometrical shapes on hard
metallic components. Nevertheless, current EDM has major
limitations when dealing with fine surface finish and material
removal rate. Recently EDM with powder mixed dielectric (PMEDM) has
been a focus of intense research work in order to overcome these
technological performance barriers. The present study is done with
an objective to modify the machining characteristics like surface
roughness, material removal rate, and hardness by adding different
concentrations of TiO2 into the dielectric fluid of EDM. XRD and
MAPING analysis has been carried out to find the migration of
powder from the dielectric to the machined surface. SEM of the
surface and the cross-section is also done to analyze the surface
texture and recast layer. The results achieved show that minor
amount of powder was migrated to machined surface, which resulted
in surface improvement. The dielectric with added powder also shows
significant improvement in material removal rate.
