History is one of the main aspects that shapes a country’s culture and leaves its traces on the built environment in the form of an architectural heritage. Such a heritage records the existence of humans, their past endeavours and in doing so preserves their cultures and traditions for future generations and contributes to the formation of their identities by acting as an inspiration for their architectural achievements. From this perspective, conservation of architectural heritage becomes important to both current and future architectural endeavours. This book discusses several topics of great importance and relevance to the conservation of worldwide architectural heritage. From historic ...
As we are writing this, we are in the midst of unprecedented times. We, humans, have been hit by one of the biggest disruptions of our times which has put the world on hold and is shedding light on the way we live among ourselves and with the rest of living creatures. The world is redefining the way we will work, play and live and people are looking to placing health, safety, wellbeing and quality of life at the top of their priorities. At the same time, our planet’s health itself has never been put to such extreme stress. We’ve lost more than 50% of our biodiversity, hit this year again a temperature record and are counting more cities with unhealthy levels of PM2,5 by the minute. We ar...

The book is very useful for researchers, graduate students and educators associated with or interested in recent advances in different aspects of modelling, computational methods and techniques necessary for solving problems arising in the real-world problems. The book includes carefully peer-reviewed research articles presented in the “5th International Conference on Mathematical Modelling, Applied Analysis and Computation”, held at JECRC University, Jaipur, during 4–6 August 2022 concentrating on current advances in mathematical modelling and computation via tools and techniques from mathematics and allied areas. It is focused on papers dealing with necessary theory and methods in a balanced manner and contributes towards solving problems arising in engineering, control systems, networking system, environment science, health science, physical and biological systems, social issues of current interest, etc.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Model and Data Engineering, MEDI 2022, held in Cairo, Egypt, in November 2022. The 18 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 65 submissions. The papers cover topics such as database systems, data stream analysis, knowledge-graphs, machine learning, model-driven engineering, image processing, diagnosis, natural language processing, optimization, and advanced applications such as the internet of things and healthcare.
Accessible, challenging, funny, and one of the best reads on how to love others in any situation. Love and hospitality can change the way you see the world and others. That's exactly what modern-day theologian, Richard Beck, experienced when he first led a Bible study at a local maximum security prison. Beck believed the promise of Matthew 25 that states when we visit the prisoner, we encounter Jesus. Sure enough, God met Beck in prison. With his signature combination of biblical reflection, theological reasoning, and psychological insight, Beck shows how God always meets us when we entertain the marginalized, the oppressed, and the refugee. Stories from Beck's own life illustrate this truth -- God comes to him in the poor, the crippled, the smelly. Psychological experiments show how we are predisposed to appreciate those who are similar to us and avoid those who are unlike us. The call of the gospel, however, is to override those impulses with compassion, to "widen the circle of our affection." In the end, Beck turns to the Little Way of St. Thérèse of Lisieux for guidance in doing even the smallest acts with kindness, and he lays out a path that any of us can follow.
