This book analyses the paradigm shift towards a rights-based reproductive health program in Bangladesh, where services still confront issues of availability, accessibility, and quality. It investigates how policy frameworks have affected these services.
Compelling Form
Compelling Form argues that architecture is as capable of social influence as speeches or advertisements. The book demonstrates how the visual design of diverse structures—from cathedrals to skyscrapers—affects the viewer and has lasting social impact.
This book provides theory on artificial intelligence techniques and insight on application development. It is for academicians, practitioners, and students seeking a deep understanding of the latest paradigms in AI to develop intelligent systems for the benefit of humanity.
This work investigates the algebraic theory of corner subrings in Banach and C*-algebras. We propose a general approach to explore when topological properties are consequences of algebraic assumptions, with results for C*-algebras and ternary rings of operators.
This book presents a novel approach, Design for Reliability Predictability (DRP). DRP helps predict system reliability from its components and their interactions by integrating precise design, specification, and documentation. A case study demonstrates its application.
Simulation-based Medical Training
This volume explores the user-centred development of a Virtual Reality (VR) and web-based medical training system. It shows how a democratic arrangement between users and developers is beneficial, using prototypes to bridge the knowledge gap.
This book explains the theory and technology of converting electric energy to other forms, such as thermal, chemical, or mechanical. It offers new calculation methods and operating principles for electrotechnological equipment widely used in Eastern Europe.
This comprehensive handbook is for practitioners managing safety, health, and environment at work. Blending theory with practice, it provides guidance and ready-to-use documents applicable in any industry worldwide, with a focus on better practice.
This unique monograph explores the in-depth chemistry of allelopathy—the chemical interactions between plants. It covers the development of bioherbicides and the nanoencapsulation of allelochemicals for agriculture, a valuable resource for scientists, students, and industry.
Studying Shanghai and Nanjing, this book examines the behavior and impact of pollutants in developing metropolises. It offers innovative solutions, including a method to distinguish human-added trace metals in soil from natural levels. A guide for researchers and policymakers.
Identity theft is a growing concern in mobile ad-hoc networks. This book presents an innovative framework for identity management that puts users back in control. Using context-awareness and user-centricity, it protects identity and balances privacy with convenience.
This guide explores cache coherency in multicore systems, from key protocols to the design of a scalable fabric for the RISC-V architecture. Leveraging detailed simulations, the book rigorously examines the fabric’s ability to maintain memory consistency across multiple cores.
