10 ½ Stories of our Times
Two colleagues constantly chat about cricket, movies and women at work, much to the annoyance of The Mechanical Engineer. An astrologer has a strange visitor one evening, who is in a tearing hurry to know his Tomorrow, Today. The friendship between two housemates is disrupted by An Old Friend, who reconnects after a long time over a social networking site. An ardent Dravidfan is ridiculed by his playmates for his classical batting technique, but is determined to earn their respect. A boy narrates the story of The Lucky Day to the police who have come home to interrogate him. All this and more in 10½ Stories of Our Times. Set against the backdrop of an increasingly liberated, empowered and connected world, these hard-hitting stories bring to light the shifting paradigms of modern India, eager to break free from the warp of established conventions and traditional mindsets. The classic tales in this collection are full of drama and suspense. Peppered with humor and satire, the stories serve as a compelling commentary on the times we live in. Ten unique stories. Many interesting characters. Many shades of life… And, a half-a-story that will surely raise a few eyebrows.
Sustainable Advanced Computing
This volume presents select proceedings of the International Conference on Sustainable Advanced Computing (ICSAC – 2021). It covers the latest research on a wide range of topics spanning theory, systems, applications, and case studies in advanced computing. Topics covered are machine intelligence, expert systems, robotics, natural language processing, cognitive science, quantum computing, deep learning, pattern recognition, human-computer interface, biometrics, graph theory, etc. The volume focuses on the novel research findings and innovations of various researchers. In addition, the book will be a promising solution for new generation-based sustainable, intelligent systems that are machine and human-centered with modern models and appropriate amalgamations of collaborative practices with a general objective of better research in all aspects of sustainable advanced computing.
Advances in Systems Engineering
This book presents the proceedings of the 30th International Conference on Systems Engineering held at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), USA, during August 22-24, 2023. Research in the discipline of Systems Engineering is an important concept in the advancement of engineering and information sciences. Systems Engineering attempts to integrate many of the traditional engineering disciplines to solve large complex functioning engineering systems, dependent on components from all the disciplines. The research papers contained in these proceedings reflect the state of the art in systems engineering from all over the world and should serve as vital references to researchers to follow. T...
Wood Polymer Composites
This book comprehensively covers the different topics of wood polymer composite materials mainly synthesis methods for the composite materials, various characterization techniques to study the superior properties and insights on potential advanced applications. It also discusses the chemistry, fabrication process, properties, applications, recycling and life cycle assessment of wood polymer composites. This is a useful reference source for both engineers and researchers working in composite materials science as well as the students attending materials science, physics, chemistry and engineering courses.
Biodegradation and Bioconversion of Hydrocarbons
This book details three main topics: the screening and characterization of hydrocarbons from air, soil and water; technologies in the biodegradation of hydrocarbons; and the bioconversion of hydrocarbons for biofuel/chemicals, as well as recent developments in the remediation of hydrocarbons and their environmental benefits. The first section focuses on screening methods, qualitative and quantitative analysis of hydrocarbons from soil, air and water environments, speciation of hydrocarbons, and natural bioremediation strategies in such environments. The second section examines technologies for removing hydrocarbon contaminants from various environments, especially advanced technologies for the removal of hydrocarbons and in-situ and ex-situ remediation strategies and problems, as well as concrete case studies. The last section, covering the bioconversion of hydrocarbons for biofuel/chemicals, highlights the biochemicals and bioproducts developed from hydrocarbons, with a particular focus on biochemical and chemical technologies used to produce biopolymers, biofuel precursors and commodity chemicals from hydrocarbons.
