This book discusses a number of intelligent algorithms which are being developed and explored for the next-generation communication systems. These include algorithms enabled with artificial intelligence, machine learning, artificial neural networks, reinforcement learning, fuzzy logic, swarm intelligence and cognitive capabilities. The book provides a comprehensive and insightful understanding of these algorithms, in context with their applications developed recently and also for immediate future communication technologies. It also covers the topics on how to develop intelligent algorithms for computing functionality in the end-to-end networking platforms. Moreover, the book also covers the recent developments, open technological challenges and future directions in the areas of data analysis, applications of the game theory, autonomous entities, evolutionary computation, smart ubiquitous computing and intelligent architectures with major focus on communication technologies and computing platforms.

Public Health in East and Southeast Asia presents an overview of the state of public health across this vast region and considers the challenges and prospects for its future advancement. It pays particular attention to how rapid economic progress has brought accelerated change, both demographic and epidemiological, to an area already marked by great heterogeneity in health status and public health systems. In comparative and thematically oriented chapters, leading scholars consider such issues as changes in values and lifestyles, infectious diseases, nutrition, tobacco, chronic diseases, accidents and injury, environmental health, occupational health, the effect of globalization, and health services.
The quick growth of computer technology and development of software caused it to be in a constant state of change and advancement. This advancement in software development meant that there would be many types of software developed in order to excel in usability and efficiency. Among these different types of software was open source software, one that grants permission for users to use, study, change, and distribute it freely. Due to its availability, open source software has quickly become a valuable asset to the world of computer technology and across various disciplines including education, business, and library science. The Research Anthology on Usage and Development of Open Source Softwa...
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major health threat to humans, animals, plants and the environment. One of the key drivers of AMR is the misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in animal production, including in aquaculture. Therefore, monitoring the use of antimicrobials in farm animals is essential to mitigate AMR. The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH, founded as OIE) has been collecting data, mainly coming from national sales and imports records of antimicrobials, from its members on antimicrobial agents intended for use in animals since 2015. To complement this information and improve decision-making, farm-level antimicrobial use (AMU) data are needed, as it allows for better ...
