Communities around the world face an array of unprecedented challenges from climate change. From extreme weather events to biodiversity loss and resource scarcity, the impacts of climate change are far-reaching and multifaceted. Yet, amidst these challenges lies an opportunity for communities to build resilience and chart a path towards sustainable development. However, navigating this complex terrain requires actionable strategies, innovative approaches, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Community Resilience and Climate Change Challenges: Pursuit of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emerges as a beacon of hope in addressing these pressing issues. By delving into the critical intersection of community resilience and the pursuit of SDGs, this book offers a comprehensive guide for empowering communities to adapt and thrive amidst climate uncertainties. Through a diverse range of practical strategies, case studies, and innovative approaches, it equips decision-makers, practitioners, and educators with the knowledge and tools needed to tackle the complex challenges of climate change and sustainable development.
The book will focus on the applications of machine learning for sustainable development. Machine learning (ML) is an emerging technique whose diffusion and adoption in various sectors (such as energy, agriculture, internet of things, infrastructure) will be of enormous benefit. The state of the art of machine learning models is most useful for forecasting and prediction of various sectors for sustainable development.
5G, the emerging technology in mobile communication, is expected to deliver an important and decisive impact on several of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals where universal accessibility to ICTs remains a serious concern. However, cyber security has emerged as a serious challenge, not least because of the increased accessibility and broader usage with associated vulnerability. Developing countries have additional challenges associated with both the expected faster build-up of accessibility and lack of qualified competencies within cyber security. Discussion of these challenges is the overall theme and motivation for this book. Technical topics discussed in the book include: 5G in rural networks Critical infrastructures Open RAN Protection of privacy Cybersecurity and machine learning Cybersecurity and disaster monitoring
Technological advancements of recent decades have reshaped the way people socialize, work, learn, and ultimately live. The use of cyber-physical systems (CPS) specifically have helped people lead their lives with greater control and freedom. CPS domains have great societal significance, providing crucial assistance in industries ranging from security to healthcare. At the same time, machine learning (ML) algorithms are known for being substantially efficient, high performing, and have become a real standard due to greater accessibility, and now more than ever, multidisciplinary applications of ML for CPS have become a necessity to help uncover constructive solutions for real-world problems. Real-Time Applications of Machine Learning in Cyber-Physical Systems provides a relevant theoretical framework and the most recent empirical findings on various real-time applications of machine learning in cyber-physical systems. Covering topics like intrusion detection systems, predictive maintenance, and seizure prediction, this book is an essential resource for researchers, machine learning professionals, independent researchers, scholars, scientists, libraries, and academicians.
A new challenge has become present in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI). The fundamental nature of education, a vital element for advancing the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), now grapples with the transformative impact of AI technologies. As we stand at this intersection of progress and pedagogy, critical questions surface about the future roles of educators and the integrity of assessment processes. AIs rapid progression prompts an exploration of the competencies our education systems must cultivate in a world where human and machine intelligence are becoming increasingly interconnected. Against this backdrop of transformative uncertainty, Integra...
This book will focus on the use of Blockchain 3.0 for sustainable development. This tool is invaluable for achieving transparency and trust, but possibilities to benefit society more broadly are emerging that will bring a bright future for sustainable development, too. The adoption of blockchain in agriculture, healthcare, infrastructure, education, environment, energy, communication will provide revolutionary changes in the digital era.
