Counterterror Offensives for the Ghost War World

In Counterterror Offensives for the Ghost War World: The Rudiments of Counterterrorism Policy, Richard J. Chasdi has written a groundbreaking quantitative analysis that provides new insight into which types of counterterror practices work best and which types perform poorly in particular operational environments and circumstances. For Chasdi, "effectiveness" is defined as the capacity of counterterror practices to work with "stealth"-namely, without eliciting high amounts of related follow-up terrorist assaults. He moves beyond individual country analyses to tackle an analysis of counterterror practice effectiveness based on the type of political system of the country carrying out counterterror offensives and the power level of that country within the international political system. Chasdi furthermore provides essential qualitative descriptions of national security institutions, stakeholders, and processes to frame his quantitative results in ways that tie those findings to historical and contemporary political developments.

A Special Ramadan

Set in a scenic English town, let S. H. Miah take you on a dazzling coming of age journey. Adil is twelve years old. Loves comics, loves games, loves hanging out with friends. Typical London boy stuff. When his mother decides on a sudden trip back home to Bangladesh, Adil is dumped onto the shores of Blueridge, a town in England’s south, to live with the man Adil has hated his entire life—his father. As Adil makes new friends in the town and joins its annual competition, he peels back the layers to his father’s abandonment and realises there is more to everything than meets the eye. Not to mention mysteries shroud the town and its annual competition. Mysteries Adil must solve. Will Adil realise the truth to set him free? Or will his rage bottle inside him, ready to burst at the worst moment? Light hearted yet heartwarming, whilst dipped in coming of age, let S. H. Miah’s upper-middle grade story take you on a journey you won’t want to miss.

Due to the increasing need to solve complex problems, high-performance computing (HPC) is now one of the most fundamental infrastructures for scientific development in all disciplines, and it has progressed massively in recent years as a result. HPC facilitates the processing of big data, but the tremendous research challenges faced in recent years include: the scalability of computing performance for high velocity, high variety and high volume big data; deep learning with massive-scale datasets; big data programming paradigms on multi-core; GPU and hybrid distributed environments; and unstructured data processing with high-performance computing. This book presents 19 selected papers from the TopHPC2017 congress on Advances in High-Performance Computing and Big Data Analytics in the Exascale era, held in Tehran, Iran, in April 2017. The book is divided into 3 sections: State of the Art and Future Scenarios, Big Data Challenges, and HPC Challenges, and will be of interest to all those whose work involves the processing of Big Data and the use of HPC.

Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a closed-loop system in which a set of sensors is connected to servers via a network. The data from sensors are stored in a database and then analysed by IoT analytics. The results are usually employed by either humans, machines, or software to make decisions about the operation of the system. This book provides an interface between the main disciplines of engineering/technology and the organizational, administrative, and planning capabilities of managing the IoT.

  • Publisher: CRC Press

Visualization and visual analytics are powerful concepts for exploring data from various application domains. The endless number of possible parameters and the many ways to combine visual variables as well as algorithms and interaction techniques create lots of possibilities for building such techniques and tools. The major goal of those tools is to include the human users with their tasks at hand, their hypotheses, and research questions to provide ways to find solutions to their problems or at least to hint them in a certain direction to come closer to a problem solution. However, due to the sheer number of design variations, it is unclear which technique is suitable for those tasks at han...
