Human Interaction, Emerging Technologies and Future Applications II
This book reports on research and developments in human-technology interaction. A special emphasis is given to human-computer interaction, and its implementation for a wide range of purposes such as healthcare, aerospace, telecommunication, and education, among others. The human aspects are analyzed in detail. Timely studies on human-centered design, wearable technologies, social and affective computing, augmented, virtual and mixed reality simulation, human rehabilitation and biomechanics represent the core of the book. Emerging technology applications in business, security, and infrastructure are also critically examined, thus offering a timely, scientifically-grounded, but also professionally-oriented snapshot of the current state of the field. The book is based on contributions presented at the 2nd International Conference on Human Interaction and Emerging Technologies: Future Applications, IHIET-AI 2020, held on April 23-25, in Lausanne, Switzerland. It offers a timely survey and a practice-oriented reference guide to researchers and professionals dealing with design and/or management of the new generation of service systems.
Research Anthology on Cross-Industry Challenges of Industry 4.0
As Industry 4.0 brings on a new bout of transformation and fundamental changes in various industries, the traditional manufacturing and production methods are falling to the wayside. Industrial processes must embrace modern technology and the most recent trends to keep up with the times. With “smart factories”; the automation of information and data; and the inclusion of IoT, AI technologies, robotics, and cloud computing comes new challenges to tackle. These changes are creating new threats in security, reliability, the regulations around legislation and standardization of technologies, malfunctioning devices or operational disruptions, and more. These effects span a variety of industri...
Applications and Challenges of Maintenance and Safety Engineering in Industry 4.0
To plan, build, monitor, maintain, and dispose of products and assets properly, maintenance and safety requirements must be implemented and followed. A lack of maintenance and safety protocols leads to accidents and environmental disasters as well as unexpected downtime that costs businesses money and time. With the arrival of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and evolving technological tools, it is imperative that safety and maintenance practices be reexamined. Applications and Challenges of Maintenance and Safety Engineering in Industry 4.0 is a collection of innovative research that addresses safety and design for maintenance and reducing the factors that influence and degrade human performance and that provides technological advancements and emergent technologies that reduce the dependence on operator capabilities. Highlighting a wide range of topics including management analytics, internet of things (IoT), and maintenance, this book is ideally designed for engineers, software designers, technology developers, managers, safety officials, researchers, academicians, and students.
Handbook of Research on Industrial Advancement in Scientific Knowledge
In a society that praises and promotes technological advancement, it becomes increasingly essential to review the effects of such rapid technological growth. New high-tech advances need to be examined to determine what they mean to science, society, and industry along with the benefits and challenges they present. The Handbook of Research on Industrial Advancement in Scientific Knowledge addresses the intersection of technology and science where engineering considerations, mathematical approaches, and management tools provide a better understanding and awareness of Industry 4.0, while also taking into account the impact on current society. This publication identifies methodologies and applications related to decision making, risk and uncertainty, and design and development not only on scientific and industrial topics but also on social and ethical matters. It is designed for engineers, entrepreneurs, academicians, researchers, managers, and students.
Insurmountable Simplicities
Why do mirrors seem to invert left and right but not up and down? How do we know whether strawberries taste the same for everyone? Where is it written that we must observe the law, and if it is not written, why should we observe it? What if we could swap brains-or the rest of our bodies? Insurmountable Simplicities is filled with captivating and inventive stories, dialogues, and epistolary exchanges that illuminate the many philosophical conundrums of everyday life. Clear, concise, and intellectually engaging, this internationally acclaimed book covers a range of themes, such as personal identity, causality and responsibility, fortune, the nature of things, the paradoxes of time and space, and the interplay between logic and language, and brilliantly demonstrates that the beauty of philosophy resides in its engagement with the simplicities of the world, insurmountable as they might initially appear.
Semplicità insormontabili
Una gioia dell'intelligenza. Piero Bianucci, "La Stampa" Un viaggio in 'mondi rovesciati' capaci di illuminare la realtà che ci è familiare. Armando Massarenti, "Il Sole 24 Ore" Un'acuta disamina dei problemi più attuali della filosofia. Edoardo Boncinelli, "Corriere della Sera" Le storie di Casati e Varzi ci aiutano a vedere che la metafisica si nasconde nei dettagli e non in qualche mondo iperuranio. Maurizio Ferraris, "il manifesto" Roberto Casati e Achille Varzi sono collezionisti di quei punti in cui il mondo pare mostrare il suo rovescio. Stefano Bartezzaghi, "Il Venerdì di Repubblica"
Semplicemente diaboliche
A guidare Casati e Varzi non è il desiderio di semplificare ciò che è complesso, ma lo sguardo indagatore su ciò che sembra semplice e invece non lo è. "Il Sole 24 Ore" La filosofia è una sfida incessante a riconoscere la straordinaria complessità del mondo che ci circonda, a partire dalle cose più semplici. Qual è la differenza tra la mano destra e la sinistra? Tornerà mai un momento come questo? Come fa un'attrice a fingere una morte finta? Il mosaico dipende dalla posizione delle tessere; ma sarebbe lo stesso mosaico se si scambiassero fra loro due tessere uguali? Il bello della filosofia sta proprio in questo: fare i conti con ogni semplicità, anche quando ci appare assolutamente insormontabile.
