This book offers the core conceptual base for the practice of
T-Group facilitation. Drawing from the fields of psychology, social
psychology, sociology, diversity studies and Indian philosophical
thoughts, this book is a great resource for enhancing the practice
of T-Group facilitation, for both budding and established
facilitators. It covers a wide range of theories on human
development, self-awareness, interpersonal interactions, groups and
change. Individual and group identities, diversity, inclusion and
social hierarchies are explored in detail here. The authors offer a
model of T-Group facilitation based on 50 years of experience
within the Indian Society for Applied Behavioural Science (ISABS).
This model is useful not only for fellow practitioners of T-Groups
but also for anyone engaged in facilitating groups, organizations
and communities globally. This book helps one to reflect, develop
and sharpen one's competencies, values and ethics in this field.
The chapters are embedded with activities, quizzes, case studies
and exercises to facilitate a deeper understanding of the various
elements used in the book. This book will be of interest to
students, teachers and practitioners of psychology, social
psychology, management studies and organizational development. It
will also be useful for T-Group facilitators, facilitators of
experiential groups and related fields.
Conducting research and technology design for domestic life is by
no means easy. Methods commonly used in the field of Human-Computer
Interaction in settings like the workplace may not easily translate
to the richness and complexity of domestic life. This book
documents new ways in which researchers are studying domestic life,
as well as designing and evaluating technology in the home. Each
chapter is a candid discussion about methods that were successfully
used for research studies with a focus on the challenges that the
researchers faced and the best practices they learned.

This title addresses various open issues related to performance
monitoring, performance management and performance control. It
covers the performance management aspects of broadband wired and
wireless cellular networks in an integrated fashion, and highlights
the role of performance management in assisting network control
procedures.
The book describes hazardous waste industries, sources of waste
generation, characterization and treatment processes/ methods and
technique and technology to deal with the treated waste as per the
prescribed standard. Advanced treatment based on the microbial
remediation, plant-based decontamination, rhizoremediation and
nano-based remediation is also explained. Advances in treatment
technology using biotechnological tools/bionanotechnology for
removal of contaminants are described. This volume will help
readers to develop biotechnological and nanotechnological
approaches for the remediation of hazardous waste and the developed
technology that can be transferred from laboratory to land and
piloting to commercial scenarios. Prof. M. H. Fulekar a Professor

Using Android as a reference, this book teaches the development of
mobile apps designed to be responsive, trustworthy and robust, and
optimized for maintainability. As the share of mission-critical
mobile apps continues to increase in the ever-expanding mobile app
ecosystem, it has become imperative that processes and procedures
to assure their reliance are developed and included in the software
life cycle at opportune times. Memory, CPU, battery life and screen
size limitations of smartphones coupled with volatility associated
with mobile environments underlines that the quality assurance
strategies that proved to be successful for desktop applications
may no longer be effective in mobile apps. To that effect, this
book lays a foundation upon which quality assurance processes and
procedures for mobile apps could be devised. This foundation is
composed of analytical models, experimental test-beds and software
solutions. Analytical models proposed in the literature to predict
software quality are studied and adapted for mobile apps. The
efficacy of these analytical models in prejudging the operations of
mobile apps under design and development is evaluated. A
comprehensive test suite is presented that empirically assesses a
mobile app's compliance to its quality expectations. Test
procedures to measure quality attributes such as maintainability,
usability, performance, scalability, reliability, availability and
security, are detailed. Utilization of test tools provided in
Android Studio as well as third-party vendors in constructing the
corresponding test-beds is highlighted. An in-depth exploration of
utilities, services and frameworks available on Android is
conducted, and the results of their parametrization observed
through experimentation to construct quality assurance solutions
are presented. Experimental development of some example mobile apps
is conducted to gauge adoption of process models and determine
favorable opportunities for integrating the quality assurance
processes and procedures in the mobile app life cycle. The role of
automation in testing, integration, deployment and configuration
management is demonstrated to offset cost overheads of integrating
quality assurance process in the life cycle of mobile apps.
The book is designed to benefit students and engineers relating to
emerging field of RF-MEMS at graduate and post graduate level. It
presents a coherent, unified and comprehensive knowledge of the
fundamentals of RF-MEMS technology. The aim of the book is to
enable the student to get a simplified and satisfactory grasp of
the subject. It is written to make students realize that this
subject is relevant and useful and also encourage the engineers to
develop some facilities in its use. This promising and growing
field is of multidisciplinary nature and has diverse applications
in various areas like communication, and defense. This book gives
an overview of materials, micro fabrication, packaging, market and
forecast of RF-MEMS devices and reliability problems of RF-MEMS. It
indicates that RF-MEMS will revolutionize with advancement in this
technology as it is clearly a technological aspect.The concept is
made attractive by giving suitable representative case studies of
RF-MEMS, diagrams, and tables. The book will be most useful to not
only to students of Physics, Electronics Engineering but also to
researchers working in this emerging field.
Punjabi language, spoken by tens of millions of peoples worldwide,
is one among those unique languages of the world which are written
in different scripts. It is written in Indian East Punjab in
Gurmukhi script, in Pakistan West Punjab, in Shahmukhi script.
Whilst in speech, Punjabi in the both Eastern and the Western
Punjab is mutually comprehensible, in the written form it is not
so. This has created a script barrier between the Punjabi
literature written in India and in Pakistan. A computer program
capable of automatic transliteration between Shahmukhi and Gurmukhi
scripts is a great boon for overcoming the script barrier in
Punjabi language.This book addresses the challenges posed by
Shahmukhi script and proposes a complete Shahmukhi-to-Gurmukhi
transliteration system which is capable of processing the real life
or natural Shahmukhi text. The book also highlights the
difficulties encountered during transliteration like filling the
missing diacritics, missing short vowels, multiple mappings, word
boundary issues and word sense disambiguation which were no trivial
and presents their promising solutions during different stages of
development of the transliteration system.
