Low Carbon Transition

Most leaders of developed nations recognize the importance of following policies and strategies to achieve a low-carbon economy based on new and innovative technologies that are able to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create new employment and growth. In the broad spectrum of the feasible decarbonisation pathways, the challenge for political and economic decision-makers is to weigh uncertain impact from different technologies and to build a comprehensive evidence-based framework for research, business, investment and policy decision-making. This book aims to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art technology in the Low Carbon Technology and Economy field, discussing a set of new technology approaches and environmental and economic implications.

Statistical Approaches With Emphasis on Design of Experiments Applied to Chemical Processes

Optimized operating conditions for complex systems can be attained by using advanced combinations of numerical and statistical methodologies. One of the most efficient and straightforward solutions relies on the application of statistical methods with an emphasis on the design of experiments (DoEs). Throughout the book, the design and analysis of experiments are conducted involving several approaches, namely, Taguchi, response surface methods, statistical correlations, or even fractional factorial and model-based evolutionary operation designs. This book not only presents a theoretical overview about the different approaches but also contains material that covers the use of the experimental ...

The Antisocial Mind

In this book, Professor Ghahreman Khodadad illuminates the basis of human behavior by examining the structures that underline antisociality. The book’s central thesis is that antisocial people are so thanks to biological and neurological structures. The principle of structure to function is used to argue that the brain, without us being conscious of it, produces our behaviors. If this claim is correct, then antisocial individuals are not accountable for their antisocial behavior, and they should be treated respectfully instead of being punished. Furthermore, prisons should accordingly be converted into rehabilitation, treatment, and behavioral research centers. This is a book for the general reader who is interested in the basis of human behavior. It should also be of interest to psychologists, psychiatrists, neuroscientists, geneticists, neurobiologists, and philosophers.

The series of ISCIS (International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences) symposia have been held each year since 1986, mostly in Turkey and occasionally abroad. It is the main computer science and engineering meeting organized by Turkish academics and was founded by Erol Gelenbe. Each year ISCIS attracts a signi?cant number of international participants from all over the world. The 19th ISCIS was organized by Bilkent University, Department of Computer Engineering, and was held in Kemer-Antalya, Turkey during 27–29 October 2004. For ISCIS 2004, a total of 335 papers went through the review process and a large number of high-quality papers competed for acceptance. This volume of th...
