Towards Practical Brain-Computer Interfaces
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are devices that enable people to communicate via thought alone. Brain signals can be directly translated into messages or commands. Until recently, these devices were used primarily to help people who could not move. However, BCIs are now becoming practical tools for a wide variety of people, in many different situations. What will BCIs in the future be like? Who will use them, and why? This book, written by many of the top BCI researchers and developers, reviews the latest progress in the different components of BCIs. Chapters also discuss practical issues in an emerging BCI enabled community. The book is intended both for professionals and for interested laypeople who are not experts in BCI research.
Communication with Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CETI)
In April 2010, fifty years to the month after the first experiment in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), scholars from a range of disciplines—including astronomy, mathematics, anthropology, history, and cognitive science—gathered at NASA's biennial Astrobiology Science Conference (AbSciCon) for a series of sessions on the search for intelligent life. This book highlights the most recent developments in SETI discussed at that conference, emphasizing the ways that SETI has grown since its inception. The volume covers three broad themes: First, leading researchers examine the latest developments in observational SETI programs, as well as innovative proposals for new search...
Applying Neuroscience to Business Practice
Neuroscience is a multidisciplinary research area that evaluates the structural and organizational function of the nervous system. When applied to business practices, it is possible to investigate how consumers, managers, and marketers makes decisions and how their emotions may play a role in those decisions. Applying Neuroscience to Business Practice provides theoretical frameworks and current empirical research in the field. Highlighting scientific studies and real-world applications on how neuroscience is being utilized in business practices and marketing strategies to benefit organizations, as well as emergent business and management techniques being developed from this research, this book is a pivotal reference source for researchers, managers, and students.
Neural Engineering
Reviews and discussions of contemporary and relevant topics by leading investigators, essential for all those wishing to take advantage of the latest and greatest in this emerging field.
Pharmacoinformatics and Drug Discovery Technologies: Theories and Applications
Within the context of integrated health management domains, pharmacoinformatics aims at maximizing the benefits from the use of information systems and technologies for the provision of decision support tools necessary for improved drug management, use, and administration practices. Pharmacoinformatics and Drug Discovery Technologies: Theories and Applications offers the latest the field has to offer to practitioners and academics alike, presented through theoretical frameworks, case studies, and future directions. This vital resource gathers an integrated pattern of high quality publications from around the world providing current, cutting-edge, and provocative scientific work in the three domains of pharmacoinformatics: decision making domains, knowledge utilization and representation environment, and the technological and infrastructural context.
Ecosystem Services for Spatial Planning
The book investigates the relationship between ecosystem services (ES) and spatial planning, and explores potential means of integrating the two concepts to support the decision-making process. In addition, it presents case studies demonstrating the outcomes, limitations, opportunities and further new developments in ES assessment/mapping for planning support. Then it describes the “Restart from Ecosystem Services” (RES) methodology, which is aimed at integrating ES into the planning process using an ecological balance, and at promoting new planning parameters for the transformation areas. RES ensures the inclusion of ES in planning processes using the incremental measures of limiting, mitigating and compensating soil sealing and land take process promoting operational strategies in applying it. The implementation of RES is associated with strategic environmental assessment and provides valuable support in the definition of strategies across the entire planning process, especially for the evaluation of alternative scenarios.
