The practice of engineering is continually changing. Engineers today must be able not only to thrive in an environment of rapid technological change and globalization, but also to work on interdisciplinary teams. Cutting-edge research is being done at the intersections of engineering disciplines, and successful researchers and practitioners must be aware of developments and challenges in areas that may not be familiar to them. At the U.S. Frontiers of Engineer Symposium, engineers have the opportunity to learn from their peers about pioneering work being done in many areas of engineering. Frontiers of Engineering 2011: Reports on Leading-Edge Engineering from the 2011 Symposium highlights the papers presented at the event. This book covers four general topics from the 2011 symposium: additive manufacturing, semantic processing, engineering sustainable buildings, and neuro-prosthetics. The papers from these presentations provide an overview of the challenges and opportunities of these fields of inquiry, and communicate the excitement of discovery.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Passive and Active Measurement, PAM 2014, held in Los Angeles, CA, USA, in 2014. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. The papers have been organized in the following topical sections: internet wireless and mobility; measurement design, experience and analysis; performance measurement; protocol and application behavior; characterization of network behavior; and network security and privacy. In addition 7 poster papers have been included.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Passive and Active Measurement, PAM 2011, held in Atlanta, GA, USA, in March 2011.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Distributed Computing, DISC 2005, held in Cracow, Poland, in September 2005. The 32 revised full papers selected from 162 submissions are presented together with 14 brief announcements of ongoing works chosen from 30 submissions; all of them were carefully selected for inclusion in the book. The entire scope of current issues in distributed computing is addressed, ranging from foundational and theoretical topics to algorithms and systems issues and to applications in various fields.
In Japan there are robots that guide customers through marketplaces advising them where to find the product matching their needs, and realistic replicas of university professors allow them to teach their lectures a hundred kilometers away from the classroom. Not to speak about intelligent prostheses and remote high-precision surgery.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Passive and Active Measurement, PAM 2015, held in New York, NY, USA, in March 2015. The 27 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 100 submissions. The papers have been organized in the following topical sections: DNS and Routing, Mobile and Cellular, IPv6, Internet-Wide, Web and Peer-to-Peer, Wireless and Embedded, and Software Defined Networking.
In today’s modernized market, many fields are utilizing internet technologies in their everyday methods of operation. The industrial sector is no different as these technological solutions have provided several benefits including reduction of costs, scalability, and efficiency improvements. Despite this, cyber security remains a crucial risk factor in industrial control systems. The same public and corporate solutions do not apply to this specific district because these security issues are more complex and intensive. Research is needed that explores new risk assessment methods and security mechanisms that professionals can apply to their modern technological procedures. Cyber Security of I...
Born in Bosnia in the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, Aleksandar Duric overcame a difficult childhood to become a junior canoeing champion. Against all odds, he made an unlikely appearance at the 1992 Olympic Games whilst the fires of the Bosnian War raged in his homeland, a war that had tragic consequences for the Duric family. A nomadic career in football followed, before Duric finally found his feet – and his home – in Singapore. It was in this Southeast Asian nation that Duric truly made his name, becoming an all-conquering force in Singapore’s top domestic league and going on to represent the Singapore national team more than 50 times. Told in a refreshingly frank and honest manner, Beyond Borders is far more than a footballer’s memoir. Duric’s tale of tragedy and triumph, adversity and adventure, is as surprising as it is inspiring.
