Interactive Storytelling
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th InternationalConference on Interactive Digital Storytelling, ICIDS 2015, held in Copenhagen, Denmark, in November/December 2015. The 18 revised full papers and 13 short papers presented together with 9posters, 9 workshop descriptions, and 3 demonstration papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 80 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections ontheoretical and design foundations, technical advances, analyses and evaluation systems, and current and future usage scenarios and applications.
Crisis Management
Crisis management is an interdisciplinary subject field represented by theoretical problems, practical activity, people management and the art of crisis situation solving. Overall, the studies that this publication contains are to provide an overview of the state of the art mainly focused on crisis management cycle represented by certain phases and steps. Topics include also lessons learned from natural and man-made disasters, crisis communication, information systems in crisis management, civil protection and economics in crisis management. We hope that chapters of this book will provide useful information within crisis management issue for a wide audience.

Introduction to Data Science and Machine Learning
Introduction to Data Science and Machine Learning has been created with the goal to provide beginners seeking to learn about data science, data enthusiasts, and experienced data professionals with a deep understanding of data science application development using open-source programming from start to finish. This book is divided into four sections: the first section contains an introduction to the book, the second covers the field of data science, software development, and open-source based embedded hardware; the third section covers algorithms that are the decision engines for data science applications; and the final section brings together the concepts shared in the first three sections and provides several examples of data science applications.
Energy System Resilience and Distributed Generation
This book presents a methodology for assessing the advantages of microgrids from both a business and energy resilience perspective. Microgrids incorporate distributed generators and electrochemical energy storage systems within end-user facilities that have critical loads. By utilizing renewable energy sources and electrochemical energy storage, the life-cycle cost of energy within microgrids connected to the electrical grid can be significantly reduced. Moreover, the book explores how the design of microgrids can enhance the resilience of power supply to customers, as measured by the duration for which the microgrid can sustain an electrical consumer during an outage. This aspect is particularly crucial for buildings with critical loads. The book contains case studies from around the world that demonstrate these lessons. The book is of interest to researchers and graduate students in power and energy as well as professionals in the power industry.
Infrastructure Management and Construction
This book covers topics relevant to the concept of infrastructure construction, including key requirements of development such as measuring productivity and maintenance. It presents different categories of sustainability maintenance of critical infrastructures. In addition, it presents a complex simulation model, the reconfiguration simulator, which enables evaluation of the effectiveness of resilience enhancement strategies for electric distribution networks and the required resources to implement them. Then, it discusses health services as a critical sector in this field, which should be able to perform its function, even in times of crisis. The last chapter presents a brief review of different bridges, including the processes of design, material selection, construction, and maintenance.
Computer Applications for Software Engineering, Disaster Recovery, and Business Continuity
