6G Visions for a Sustainable and People-centric Future From Communications to Services the CONASENSE Perspective

6G Visions for a Sustainable and People-centric Future From Communications to Services the CONASENSE Perspective

6G is currently under definition being often addressed from a plain telecommunications perspective as an evolutionary paradigm that represents an extension of 5G. Having as a horizon 2030 6G initiatives are being deployed across the globe to further ignite the development of 6G services. At its philosophical core 6G embodies the human in the loop principle. The research effort being developed towards 6G requires an interdisciplinary approach that ignites discussion across different key technological sectors ranging from communications up to services and business cases. The contributions of this book to research in the field concern an evolutionary and interdisciplinary design of 6G as a paradigm that can be addressed by working together four different computational areas: communications; satellites and navigation; sensing; services. The book is derived from initial brainstorming that was developed during the 11th CONASENSE Symposium held in October 2021 in fortiss Munich Germany. Several international experts contribute to an overview of 6G key challenges new networking trends and challenges to be overcome and advanced 6G services. The book starts with a perspective on 6G challenges and use-cases beyond the 2030 horizon to then continue to address the role of non-terrestrial networks and cognitive service-centric satellite networks in future 6G services. Still with focus on 6G adaptive networking the book continues with a debate on the need to integrate social awareness based on an interdisciplinary approach in network operations. Then specific examples of advanced services (quantum imaging and holography; localization of the Internet of remote things) are discussed. The book is therefore intended to assist in developing critical thinking to back up novel networking applications and services towards 6G. | 6G Visions for a Sustainable and People-centric Future From Communications to Services the CONASENSE Perspective

Textbook on Ordinary Differential Equations A Theoretical Approach

Textbook on Ordinary Differential Equations A Theoretical Approach

Many scientific and real-world problems that occur in science engineering and medicine can be represented in differential equations. There is a vital role for differential equations in studying the behavior of different types of real-world problems. Thus it becomes crucial to know the existence and uniqueness properties of differential equations and various methods of finding differential equation solutions in explicit form. It is also essential to know different kinds of differential equations in terms of eigenvalues termed eigenvalue problems and some special functions used in finding the solution to differential equations. The study of nonlinear problems also plays a significant role in different real-world situations. There is a necessity to know the behavior of solutions of nonlinear differential equations. Still there are very few forms of differential equations whose solution can be found in explicit form. For the differential equations whose solutions cannot be found in explicit form one has to study the properties of solutions of the given differential equation to guess an approximate solution of it. This book aims to introduce all the necessary topics of differential equations in one book so that laymen can easily understand the subject and apply it in their research areas. The novel approach used in this book is the introduction of different analytical methods for finding the solution of differential equations with sufficient theorems corollaries and examples and the geometrical interpretations in each topic. This textbook is intended to study the theory and methods of finding the explicit solutions to differential equations wherever possible and in the absence of finding explicit solutions it is intended to study the properties of solutions to the given differential equations. This book is based on syllabi of the theory of differential equations prescribed for postgraduate students of mathematics and applied mathematics in different institutions and universities of India and abroad. This book will be helpful for competitive examinations as well. | Textbook on Ordinary Differential Equations A Theoretical Approach

Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Biomedical Applications

Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Biomedical Applications

Since its first appearance artificial intelligence has been ensuring revolutionary outcomes in the context of real-world problems. At this point it has strong relations with biomedical and today’s intelligent systems compete with human capabilities in medical tasks. However advanced use of artificial intelligence causes intelligent systems to be black-box. That situation is not good for building trustworthy intelligent systems in medical applications. For a remarkable amount of time researchers have tried to solve the black-box issue by using modular additions which have led to the rise of the term: interpretable artificial intelligence. As the literature matured (as a result of in particular deep learning) that term transformed into explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). This book provides an essential edited work regarding the latest advancements in explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) for biomedical applications. It includes not only introductive perspectives but also applied touches and discussions regarding critical problems as well as future insights. Topics discussed in the book include: XAI for the applications with medical images XAI use cases for alternative medical data/task Different XAI methods for biomedical applications Reviews for the XAI research for critical biomedical problems. Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Biomedical Applications is ideal for academicians researchers students engineers and experts from the fields of computer science biomedical medical and health sciences. It also welcomes all readers of different fields to be informed about use cases of XAI in black-box artificial intelligence.

Security Architecture – How & Why

Security Architecture – How & Why

Security Architecture or Enterprise Information security architecture as it was originally coined by Gartner back in 2006 has been applied to many things and different areas making a concrete definition of security architecture a difficult proposition. But having an architecture for the cyber security needs of an organization is important for many reasons not least because having an architecture makes working with cyber security a much easier job since we can now build on a hopefully solid foundation. Developing a security architecture is a daunting job for almost anyone and in a company that has not had a cyber security program implemented before the job becomes even harder. The benefits of having a concrete cyber security architecture in place cannot be overstated! The challenge here is that a security architecture is not something that can stand alone it absolutely must be aligned with the business in which it is being implemented. This book emphasizes the importance and the benefits of having a security architecture in place. The book will be aligned with most of the sub-frameworks in the general framework called SABSA or Sherwood Applied Business Security Architecture. SABSA is comprised of several individual frameworks and there are several certifications that you can take in SABSA. Aside from getting a validation of your skills SABSA as a framework focuses on aligning the Security Architecture with the business and its strategy. Each of the chapters in this book will be aligned with one or more of the components in SABSA the components will be described along with the introduction to each of the chapters. | Security Architecture – How & Why

Serial Communication Protocols and Standards

Serial Communication Protocols and Standards

Data communication standards are comprised of two components: The “protocol” and “Signal/data/port specifications for the devices involved”. The protocol describes the format of the message and the meaning of each part of the message. To connect any device to the bus an external device must be used as an interface which will put the message in a form which fulfills all the electrical specifications of the port. These specifications are called the “Standard”. The most famous such serial communication standard is the RS-232. In IT technology Communication can be serial or parallel. Serial communication is used for transmitting data over long distances. It is much cheaper to run the single core cable needed for serial communication over a long distance than the multicore cables that would be needed for parallel communication. It is the same in wireless communication: Serial communication needs one channel while parallel needs multichannel. Serial Communication can also be classified in many other ways for example synchronous and asynchronous; it can also be classified as simplex duplex and half duplex. Because of the wide spread of serial communication from home automation to sensor and controller networks there is a need for a very large number of serial communication standards and protocols. These have been developed over recent decades and range from the simple to the highly complicated. This large number of protocols was necessary to guarantee the optimum performance for the targeted applications. It is important for communication engineers to have enough knowledge to match the right protocol and standard with the right application. The main aim of this book is to provide the reader with that knowledgeThe book also provides the reader with detailed information about:- Serial Communication- Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART)- Universal Synchronous/Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART - Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) - eSPI- Universal Serial Bus (USB)- Wi-Fi- WiMax- InsteonThe details of each technology including specification operation security related matters and many other topics are covered. The book allocates three chapters to the main communication standards. These chapters cover everything related to the most famous standard RS-232 and all its variants. Other protocols such as: I2C CAN ZigBee Z-Wave Bluetooth and others are the subject of the authors separate book “Microcontroller and Smart Home Networks”. | Serial Communication Protocols and Standards
