Railway Transportation in South Asia

This book discusses policy instruments for sustainable infrastructure developments. Railways are one of the most important developmental instruments of a region, province, or country. They play a crucial role in economic development, urban growth, urban mobility, regional susceptibility, market integration, and world trade. Railways are an integral part of regional and urban development, both in terms of freight and passenger transport. By offering case studies from various regions and cities in South Asia, this book examines the evolution of railway transportation and the impact of these infrastructure projects on regional and urban development. It examines the interactions between evolving infrastructures and competing demands and considers the negative and positive externalities of railway transportation for people, places, and locations. The contributions analyze issues such as network infrastructure planning and technological development, passenger mobility and satisfaction, vulnerability to environmental impacts, and cross-border trade.

The Making of a Film

The novel making of film is a fictional story based on a man’s life journey. It depicts and manifests the cinematic concept of the ‘Hero’s journey model’. The story begins with the lead character of the story Souvaggo Halder, who speaks out about his life struggles from a tender age when his parents dissipated gradually, leaving him to toil alone on his own with the relentless tortures of life further augmenting his resentments. A series of events follows as he gets indulged in some heinous atrocities and keeps defending himself for them and also takes the name of Sujoy Gomes at one point of time. His life takes some sudden turns which finally leads him to his so coveted dream of becoming an eminent director one day. But can he hang on this success or will the relentless blows of time reduce him to ashes?

Self-learning Anomaly Detection in Industrial Production

Configuring an anomaly-based Network Intrusion Detection System for cybersecurity of an industrial system in the absence of information on networking infrastructure and programmed deterministic industrial process is challenging. Within the research work, different self-learning frameworks to analyze passively captured network traces from PROFINET-based industrial system for protocol-based and process behavior-based anomaly detection are developed, and evaluated on a real-world industrial system.

Paravartan : an enquiry on reflex phenomenon in responsive, adaptive and intelligent behaviours of reflexive spatial system archetypes

This book is an analytical enquiry of ‘reflex phenomenon’ in spatial components of a reflexive space. It is a quest in search for meaning of building a reflexive spatial system. The study analyses the ways in which emergent technologies can transform built spaces from being mere mute objects in an environment to elevate them into adaptive experiential spaces for the people who use it. It is envisioned to briefly and clearly understand the forces in a responsive built environments in the digital age that manifest itself in various forms of spatial flexibility. Here it specifically intends to address the issues of a ‘reflexive spaces’, and how such spaces can transform the experience of a user through technological advancements. The document also tends to explain how reflexive spaces are built and maintained to follow different patterns of behaviour in a singular space.
