Описание: New Media and Religious Transformations in Africa casts a critical look at Africa's rapidly evolving religious media scene. Following political liberalization, media deregulation, and the proliferation of new media technologies, many African religious leaders and activists have appropriated such media to strengthen and expand their communities and gain public recognition. Media have also been used to marginalize and restrict the activities of other groups, which has sometimes led to tension, conflict, and even violence. Showing how media are rarely neutral vehicles of expression, the contributors to this multidisciplinary volume analyze the mutual imbrications of media and religion during times of rapid technological and social change in various places throughout Africa.

Описание: Cognitive radio, the technology of transmitting radio communications by having a receiver that can detect used, versus unused, signal channels, is increasingly important with the ever expanding use of wireless communications. The central principle for this enabling technology is spectrum sensing, the ability for a receiver to recognize how channels it identifies are being used at any given point in time and space, and then adjust the communications of a device accordingly to make the most efficient use of available channels. This new book will cover the latest developments in spectrum sensing, as well as the underlying technical principles involved including statistical formulation and the fundamental concepts of signal detection. It will go on to show how spectrum sensing is used in cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access. This book will fill in the gaps from current books, and offer the reader an interesting, robust and illustrative treatment, with recent practical applications of cognitive radio and spectrum sensing.

Описание:

Chuck, a four-year-old black Labrador Retriever, is left at a shelter in Kentucky by his humans. Like many dogs left at the shelter, Chuck is scared, but he is hopeful that his humans will come back for him. During his time at the shelter he realizes that the only way he will leave is if a new family adopts him. Where does Chuck's journey end? Does he stay at the shelter, or does he find a family and become a cherished fur-baby?

This picture book is perfect for children ages 6 through 9 who are interested in adopting a dog.

A portion of the proceeds from book sales will be donated to help animal shelters and dog rescue organizations do what they do best.

Описание: Embankment construction projects on very soft soil often give rise to serious problems. This volume on geotechnics and soft soil engineering therefore treats all phases of the design and construction process exhaustively, from the first investigation step to the monitoring of constructed work. The book presents the development concepts necessary for the project stages and discusses in great detail construction methods, displacement estimations, stability analyses, monitoring, and various other aspects involved. Extensive attention is furthermore paid to the application of geosynthetics as a tool to improve the stability of soft soils and embankments. Including various tables and practical data for many geographical areas in the world, this reference volume is essential reading for engineers and researchers in geotechnical engineering, construction, and related disciplines.
