Bitter to Better Harvest
It focuses on the first-hand experience of farmers, policy-makers, and the State, who are confronted with unwanted situation in the northern part of the country, till date regarded as food bowl of the country. - Focuses agriculture in the post-green revolution period. - Presents an integrated and holistic view of the state of affairs in agriculture. - The concerns arising out of the impact of liberalisation in general, and WTO in particular, are adequately and exclusively treated. Stimulating reading for those who are interested in the dynamics of Indian agriculture. The volume can also serve as an excellent textbook for post-graduate students in economics, development studies, regional development, agriculture, as well as agro-marketing. Those researching Indian agriculture can find the book extremely relevant. Similarly, the policy makers, planners, and administrators, particularly in the government, will also appreciate its usefulness in policy and programme inputs.
Smile with Knowledge
Already delayed at the point of origin, having missed a connecting flight, required to spend another night in an interim hotel in a foreign country, and now this! It was as if destiny was preparing him well for this journey of unknowns that he had embarked upon...As Gyana sat in the room alone and looked at the single window with bars, it felt like being in a jail, waiting to be rescued from suspicion. Will they be able to verify his paperwork and identity? Will they do it in a timely manner to enable him to continue with his travel plans? What will happen if they are not able to verify the documents? A multitude of questions played havoc on his mind, with no answers in sight. -excerpt from ...
Field-Programmable Logic and Applications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Field-Programmable Logic and Applications, FPL 2003, held in Lisbon, Portugal in September 2003.

The papers are organized in topical sections on technologies and trends, communications applications, high level design tools, reconfigurable architecture, cryptographic applications, multi-context FPGAs, low-power issues, run-time reconfiguration, compilation tools, asynchronous techniques, bio-related applications, codesign, reconfigurable fabrics, image processing applications, SAT techniques, application-specific architectures, DSP applications, dynamic reconfiguration, SoC architectures, emulation, cache design, arithmetic, bio-inspired design, SoC design, cellular applications, fault analysis, and network applications.
Network-Based Parallel Computing Communication, Architecture, and Applications
Clusters of workstations/PCs connected by o?-the-shelf networks have become popular as a platform for cost-e?ective parallel computing. Hardware and so- ware technological advances have made this network-based parallel computing platform feasible. A large number of research groups from academia and industry are working to enhance the capabilities of such a platform, thereby improving its cost-e?ectiveness and usability. These developments are facilitating the mig- tion of many existing applications as well as the development of new applications on this platform. Continuing in the tradition of the two previously successful workshops, this 3rd Workshop on Communication, Architecture and Applic...

Euro-Par 2000 Parallel Processing
Euro-Par – the European Conference on Parallel Computing – is an international conference series dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel computing. The major themes can be divided into the broad categories of hardware, software, algorithms, and applications for parallel computing. The objective of Euro-Par is to provide a forum within which to promote the dev- opment of parallel computing both as an industrial technique and an academic discipline, extending the frontier of both the state of the art and the state of the practice. This is particularlyimportant at a time when parallel computing is - dergoing strong and sustained development and experiencing rea...

Who Cares?
The recent global pandemic highlighted the crucial role played by (mostly female) care workers in providing health services across the world. At the same time, it exposed the deep vulnerabilities and precarities of their lives—abysmally low wages, long working hours, social prejudice, notorious undervaluation—at the hands of an uncaring and exploitative economic system. The editors of this volume identify this as ‘care extractivism’, a strategy that enables the simultaneous extraction and undervaluation of care work, something in which governments and societies are both complicit. Further, they point to the impact of liberalization and professionalization on the political economy of ...
