The Transdisciplinary Reach of Design Science Research
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technology, DESRIST 2022, held in Tampa, FL, USA, in June 2022. The 37 revised full research papers, included in the volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. They are organized in the following topical sections: Transdisciplinary Research & DSR (theme Track); Blockchain Information Systems; Intelligent Systems and Human Interaction; Healthcare Systems and Quality of Life; Innovation and Entrepreneurship; Sustainability and Responsible Design (Environmental Issues, Human Values and ethical Design); Human Safety and Cybersecurity; Emerging DSR Methods and Processes; Designers and Collaborative DSR; and Education and DSR.
The New Muslims of Post-Conquest Iran
How do converts to a religion come to feel an attachment to it? The New Muslims of Post-Conquest Iran answers this important question for Iran by focusing on the role of memory and its revision and erasure in the ninth to eleventh centuries. During this period, the descendants of the Persian imperial, religious and historiographical traditions not only wrote themselves into starkly different early Arabic and Islamic accounts of the past but also systematically suppressed much knowledge about pre-Islamic history. The result was both a new 'Persian' ethnic identity and the pairing of Islam with other loyalties and affiliations, including family, locale and sect. This pioneering study examines revisions to memory in a wide range of cases, from Iran's imperial and administrative heritage to the Prophet Muhammad's stalwart Persian companion, Salman al-Farisi, and to memory of Iranian scholars, soldiers and rulers in the mid-seventh century.
iCity. Transformative Research for the Livable, Intelligent, and Sustainable City
This open access book presents the exciting research results of the BMBF funded project iCity carried out at University of Applied Science Stuttgart to help cities to become more liveable, intelligent and sustainable, to become a LIScity. The research has been pursued with industry partners and NGOs from 2017 to 2020. A LIScity is increasingly digitally networked, uses resources efficiently, and implements intelligent mobility concepts. It guarantees the supply of its grid-bound infrastructure with a high proportion of renewable energy. Intelligent cities are increasingly human-centered, integrative, and flexible, thus placing the well-being of the citizens at the center of developments to i...
Historical Dictionary of Track and Field
While the earliest evidence of organized running can be traced back to Egypt in 3800 BCE, the modern sport of track and field evolved from rural games and church and folk festivals, and rules were drawn up in the final quarter of the 19th century in those advanced societies where enough people had the leisure time to indulge their fancies. Today, in addition to the running events, track and field includes such events as the high jump, pole vault, long jump, shot, discus, javelin, hammer, and decathlon. The Historical Dictionary of Track and Field covers the history of this sport through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 500 cross-referenced entries on key figures, places, competitions, and governing bodies within the sport. This book is an excellent access point for researchers, students, and anyone wanting to know more about the history of track and field.
