Guide to Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
Overview and Goals Wireless communication technologies are undergoing rapid advancements. The past few years have experienced a steep growth in research in the area of wireless ad hoc networks. The attractiveness of ad hoc networks, in general, is attributed to their characteristics/features such as ability for infrastructure-less setup, minimal or no reliance on network planning and the ability of the nodes to self-organize and self-configure without the involvement of a centralized n- work manager, router, access point or a switch. These features help to set up a network fast in situations where there is no existing network setup or in times when setting up a fixed infrastructure network is considered infeasible, for example, in times of emergency or during relief operations. Even though ad hoc networks have emerged to be attractive and they hold great promises for our future, there are several challenges that need to be addressed. Some of the well-known challenges are attributed to issues relating to scalability, quality-of-service, energy efficiency and security.
Infrastructure Delivery
IFC Lessons of Experience Paper No. 3. Describes the International Finance Corporation's (IFC's) 20 years of leasing experience in developing countries and assesses the developmental impact of leasing. The IFC has invested in leasing companies in more than half of the developing countries that have a leasing industry today.
Handbook On Sensor Networks
Sensor networks have many interesting applications with great utility; however, their actually deployment and realization rely on continuous innovations and solutions to many challenging problems. Thus, sensor networks have recently attracted the attention of many researchers and practitioners. The compilation of the Handbook on Sensor Networks will meet the demand of the sensor network community for a comprehensive reference and summary of the current state of the area.The Handbook on Sensor Networks is a collection of approximately 40 chapters on sensor network theory and applications. The book spans a wide spectrum and includes topics in medium access control, routing, security and privacy, coverage and connectivity, modeling and simulations, multimedia, energy efficiency, localization and tracking, design and implementation, as well as sensor network applications.
Wireless Sensor Network Security
Wireless sensor networks (WSN) is especially vulnerable against external and internal attacks due to its particular characteristics. This book provides an overview of the major security issues that various WSN designers have to face, and also gives a comprehensive guide of solutions and open problems.
Pushing Frontiers - Imaging For Photon Science
Developments of cutting-edge X-ray imaging detectors are largely driven by experiments at the large photon science facilities, i.e. the synchrotron radiation sources and free-electron lasers (FELs) which enable a wealth of investigations in physics, material science, biology, chemistry, environmental sciences, and beyond. The next generation radiation sources, namely diffraction-limited storage-rings (DLSR) and high repetition rate FELs operated in the continuous wave (CW) mode, not only offer brilliant opportunities for research but also pose new challenges and requirements for the X-ray detectors required to exploit them fully. Examples include the high count rate capability required at th...
Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) utilize fast, cheap, and effective applications to imitate the human intelligence capability of sensing on a wider distributed scale. But acquiring data from the deployment area of a WSN is not always easy and multiple issues arise, including the limited resources of sensor devices run with one-time batteries. Additi

Antioxidant Defense in Plants
This edited book highlights the molecular basis of various enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants, defense mechanisms and adaptation strategies employed by plants to avoid the stressful conditions. Special focus is given to gene expression, omics and other latest technologies such as CRISPR-Cas mediated genome editing applications for defense related studies in plants. Environmental stresses such as drought, salinity or floods etc. induce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which causes severe damage to cell membrane integrity by accelerating lipid peroxidation. To counteract the detrimental effect of ROS, plants are inherited with an intricate and vibrant antioxidant defense s...
Critical Energy Minerals: A Material Enabler for Carbon Neutrality
In line with the Paris Agreement, the global community has committed to holding the rise in global temperatures below 1.5 °C pre-industrial levels. At COP26, held recently in Glasgow, participating parties are expected to strengthen their commitment to ambitious 2030 emissions reduction targets to achieve net-zero emissions by the middle of the 21st century. Achieving these ambitious climate goals requires all countries to phase out coal consumption, speed up electrification of transport technologies and mobilize significant investment in renewable energy technologies.
