This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Bio-Inspired Computing: Theories and Applications, BIC-TA 2022, held in Wuhan, China, during December 16–18, 2022.

40th anniversary deluxe reissue. The massive 5CD+3DVD ‘Monster Edition’ includes a new Steven Wilson stereo mix of the album, plus a host of associated recordings, also newly mixed by Wilson (CDs 1 & 2). The third disc offers demos, master mixes, rough mixes and more, while CDs 4 & 5 deliver a live set from Germany performed in 1982. The three DVDs included with this Monster Edition offer audio only content, with the first devoted to 5.1 and hi-res stereo mixes of the album associated recordings. The second DVD delivers even more associated recordings in the same audio formats, while DVD 3 is the Live in Germany 1982 concert in hi-res stereo and 4.1 surround sound.

This book offers extensive information on the course of sedimentation in the Proterozoic Vindhyan Basin and the potential record of ancient life stored within the rocks. It covers topics ranging from facies analysis to sequence-building, from carbonates to siliciclastics, and mixed lithology and life records from microbial to potentially eukaryotes, along with the basin evolutionary history.

This book discusses the impact of climate change, land use and land cover, and socio-economic dynamics on landslides in Asian countries. Scholars recently have brought about a shift in their focus regarding triggering factors for landslides, from rainfall or earthquake to claiming rapid urbanization, extreme population pressure, improper land use planning, illegal hill cutting for settlements and indiscriminate deforestation.

This book presents high-quality, peer-reviewed papers from the Third International Conference on Advanced Computational and Communication Paradigms (ICACCP 2021), organized by Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT), Sikkim, India during 22 – 24 March 2021. ICACCP 2021 covers an advanced computational paradigms and communications technique which provides failsafe and robust solutions to the emerging problems faced by mankind.
Technologists, scientists, industry professionals and research scholars from regional, national and international levels are invited to present their original unpublished work in this conference.
