The Handbook of Research on Engineering Innovations and Technology Management in Organizations is a collection of innovative research that explores global concerns in the applications of technology to business and the explosive growth that resulted. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as cyber security, legal practice, and artificial intelligence, this book is ideally designed for engineers, manufacturers, technology managers, technology developers, IT specialists, productivity consultants, executives, lawyers, programmers, managers, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students.

Archaeoacoustics, the study of sound in the past, is increasingly attracting attention. Although some work, particularly in musical archaeology, had been conducted previously, the field received a significant boost when the term itself was coined by Scarre and Lawson in their 2006 volume of that name, which brought together two major distinct strands: archaeomusicology and the acoustics of archaeological spaces. Since 2006, the number of publications has steadily been growing, yet the field remains in its infancy. This is partly due to the complexity inherent in the analysis of sound, which requires multidisciplinary collaboration across various disciplines. This complexity is reflected in t...
