A dystopian novel about the future of humanity, transhumanism, and the role of general artificial intelligence, featuring a boy with cerebral palsy who overcomes his condition with the help of a neural chip implant and achieves consciousness singularity. To help their son overcome his disease, David’s parents implant a neurochip in him, gradually transforming his brain into a quantum computer. Super-David uses his superpowers to prevent global disasters and wars. David must face the world's evil in the form of the deceased but digitized dictator Vladimir Putin. This fascinating story combines science fiction, dystopia, the philosophy of the universe, and sparkling humor for readers of any age! The book explores questions of quantum physics, digital immortality, parallel universes, religious and atheistic perceptions of reality, and the ethical issues of using universal artificial intelligence.
Роман-антиутопия о будущем человечества, трансгуманизме и роли общего искусственного интеллекта, в котором рассказывается о мальчике с церебральным параличом, который преодолевает свое состояние с помощью имплантата нейронного чипа и достигает сингулярности сознания. Эта увлекательная история сочетает в себе научную фантастику, антиутопию, философию мироздания и искрометный юмор для читателей любого возраста! В книге исследуются вопросы квантовой физики, цифрового бессмертия, параллельных вселенных, религиозного и атеистического восприятия реальности, а также этические проблемы использования универсального искусственного интеллекта.
This book consists of chapters dedicated to the questions of cyber-physical system design and its usage for the chemical industry and new material design. Also, the contribution of the book covers scientific research and their results for cyber-physical systems design and application in the energy domain and solutions regarding engineering education for cyber-physical systems design. The book offers unique content for researchers and practitioners who are looking for new knowledge and skills in the framework of Industry 4.0 solutions. The book also benefits researchers and practitioners in chemistry and new material design and manufacturing to understand how cyber-physical systems can be applied to increase efficiency and performance. The target audience of the book are practitioners, enterprises representatives, scientists, Ph.D. and master students who perform scientific research or applications of cyber-physical systems in the concept of Industry 4.0.
This book focuses on open issues of Society 5.0, a new paradigm of a society, that balances a human-centred approach and technologies based on cyber-physical systems and artificial intelligence. The book contains results of how intelligent or cyber-solutions help to improve the quality of life in society despite new challenges. This book includes five sections. Section Society 5.0: Biomedicine and Healthcare present how cyber-physical systems help in healthcare, e.g. analysis of clinical data in pregnant women with hypertension, breast cancer diagnostics, healthy diet design and others. In the chapter, the problem of data analysis and optimization is considered. The second Section, Society 5...
The Small Arms Survey 2007 features a special focus on the complex issue of urban violence.
Zusammenfassung: This book presents peer reviewed articles from The XII All Russian Scientific Conference on Current issues of Continuum Mechanics and Celestial Mechanics (XII CICMCM), held on 15-17 November 2023, at Toms in, Russia. It summarizes the latest studies on shock and explosive loading of promising materials, including functionally graded materials, porous materials, multilayer ceramic structures, advanced materials and etc. It provides a platform for researchers (and professionals) to exchange ideas and present the latest findings in these important and growing areas of applied physics and engineering
The book assesses U.S. foreign relations in the Indo-Pacific during the Trump Administration, with a particular focus on the regional powers’ response to Trump's “America First” policy. The chapter authors draw on the theoretical insights from dominant International Relations theories – (Neo)Realism, Liberal Institutionalism, and Constructivism – to explain both continuities and discontinuities found in the regional powers’ security and foreign economic policies before and during the Trump Administration. The book will be of interest to new and advanced students of International Relations, Asian Studies, and U.S. foreign policy. The multi-national perspectives of the regional experts offer penetrating analyses of the likely legacy (or lack thereof) of the range of political, security, and trade policy initiatives launched by the Trump Administration and its implications for the balance of power, regional institutions, and national identity-informed approaches to international relations in the Indo-Pacific.
The Logic of Chance offers a reappraisal and a new synthesis of theories, concepts, and hypotheses on the key aspects of the evolution of life on earth in light of comparative genomics and systems biology. The author presents many specific examples from systems and comparative genomic analysis to begin to build a new, much more detailed, complex, and realistic picture of evolution. The book examines a broad range of topics in evolutionary biology including the inadequacy of natural selection and adaptation as the only or even the main mode of evolution; the key role of horizontal gene transfer in evolution and the consequent overhaul of the Tree of Life concept; the central, underappreciated...
This book offers a valuable methodological approach to the state-of-the-art of the classical plate/shell mathematical models, exemplifying the vast range of mathematical models of nonlinear dynamics and statics of continuous mechanical structural members. The main objective highlights the need for further study of the classical problem of shell dynamics consisting of mathematical modeling, derivation of nonlinear PDEs, and of finding their solutions based on the development of new and effective numerical techniques. The book is designed for a broad readership of graduate students in mechanical and civil engineering, applied mathematics, and physics, as well as to researchers and professionals interested in a rigorous and comprehensive study of modeling non-linear phenomena governed by PDEs.
The biennial Aero India Show is here again in Bengaluru. The current issue is focused on Air Power. With Prime Minister raising the upper limit of FDI in the Defence Industry sector and bringing forth a policy of “Make in India” the international weapon systems and equipment manufacturers are realigning their format to meet the requirement in these changed circumstances. The major players in the aviation industry are already on the starting blocks and fine tuning their nuanced approach. Dr Nikolai Novichkov has presented a view of the Russian aviation industry; Steven Gillard has outlined Rolls Royce’s committed support in positioning India as a global manufacturing hub. Boeing has ela...
