A collection of research originating from WIT Conferences on Computational Methods and Earthquake Resistant Engineering Structures. In its 19th year the CMEM conference continues to provide highest quality research which forms part 1 of this book. Part 2 includes leading research as presented at the 12th edition of the ERES conference.
This book examines similarities and differences in 31 European governments’ responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic hit Europe in early 2020. It spread across the continent during the Spring while anxious electorates were treated to news reports about health systems under duress and frustrated attempts by public procurement officials to obtain adequate supplies of medical and protective equipment. Over the next 15–18 months considered by this book, national responses exhibited both similarities and profound variations as the different endeavours to regulate social interactions constituted a stress test for political systems across Europe.

The discourse of globalization that pertains to higher education reform is troubling. The first troubling thing about much of the discourse that concerns globalization is that it most often does not name a human subject. We propose that globalization discourse should be written for and directed towards human beings or students. The second troubling thing about the discourse of globalization is the way that it antagonizes and marginalizes who that missing subject might be. The two relationships form the themes of this book. The nature and logic of discourse about globalization expresses a social rationality that serves as a precondition to constructing relevant meanings. The way that we conce...

This two volume set LNCS 7016 and LNCS 7017 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Algorithms and Architectures for Parallel Processing, ICA3PP 2011, held in Melbourne, Australia, in October 2011. The first volume presents 24 revised regular papers and 17 revised short papers together with the abstract of the keynote lecture - all carefully reviewed and selected from 85 initial submissions. The papers cover the many dimensions of parallel algorithms and architectures, encompassing fundamental theoretical approaches, practical experimental results, and commercial components and systems and focus on two broad areas of parallel and distributed computing, i.e., architectures, algorithms and networks, and systems and applications.
This two volume set LNCS 7016 and LNCS 7017 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Algorithms and Architectures for Parallel Processing, ICA3PP 2011, held in Melbourne, Australia, in October 2011. The second volume includes 37 papers from one symposium and three workshops held together with ICA3PP 2011 main conference. These are 16 papers from the 2011 International Symposium on Advances of Distributed Computing and Networking (ADCN 2011), 10 papers of the 4th IEEE International Workshop on Internet and Distributed Computing Systems (IDCS 2011), 7 papers belonging to the III International Workshop on Multicore and Multithreaded Architectures and Algorithms (M2A2 2011), as well as 4 papers of the 1st IEEE International Workshop on Parallel Architectures for Bioinformatics Systems (HardBio 2011).
This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th EAI International Conference on Smart Objects and Technologies for social Good, GOODTECHS 2021, held in September 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 24 full papers presented were selected from 53 submissions and issue design, implementation, deployment, operation, and evaluation of smart objects and technologies for social good. Social goods are products and services provided through private enterprises, government, or non-profit institutions and are related to healthcare, safety, sports, environment, democracy, computer science, and human rights. The papers are arranged in tracks on machine learning; IoT; social considerations of technology; technology and ageing; healthcare.
