Cities in a Globalizing World: Governance, Performance, And Sustainability (Wbi Learning Resources Series)
Cities in a Globalizing World: Governance, Performance, And Sustainability (Wbi Learning Resources Series)
World Bank research shows that in 2003, 48 percent of the world’s population (3 billion people) lived in urban areas—a 33 percent increase from the 1990 level. By 2020, 4.1 billion people (55 percent of the world’s population) will live in urban areas. Almost 94 percent of the increase will occur in developing countries. By 2015,...
It's Easy Being Green: Simple Ways to Save the Planet: 101 Ways to Save the Planet
It's Easy Being Green: Simple Ways to Save the Planet: 101 Ways to Save the Planet

Our excessive use of natural resources − fuelled by population increases and a relentless pursuit of economic growth and material possessions − is causing alarming damage to the environment.

Human activity, such as burning fossil fuels, is causing a build-up of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) in the...

Fundamentals of Predictive Text Mining (Texts in Computer Science)
Fundamentals of Predictive Text Mining (Texts in Computer Science)

Five years ago, we authored “Text Mining: Predictive Methods for Analyzing Unstructured Information.” That book was geared mostly to professional practitioners, but was adaptable to course work with some effort by the instructor. Many topics were evolving, and this was one of the earliest efforts to collect material for predictive...

Computational Intelligence in Data Mining - Volume 3: Proceedings of the International Conference on CIDM, 20-21 December 2014 (Smart Innovation, Systems and Technologies)

The contributed volume aims to explicate and address the difficulties and challenges for the seamless integration of two core disciplines of computer science, i.e., computational intelligence and data mining. Data Mining aims at the automatic discovery of underlying non-trivial knowledge from datasets by applying intelligent analysis...

Numerical Techniques in Electromagnetics with MATLAB
Numerical Techniques in Electromagnetics with MATLAB

Despite the dramatic growth in the availability of powerful computer resources, the EM community lacks a comprehensive text on the computational techniques used to solve EM problems. The first edition of Numerical Techniques in Electromagnetics filled that gap and became the reference of choice for thousands of engineers,...
