Environmental Protection and Disaster Risks

Environmental Protection and Disaster Risks: Proceeding of the 2nd International Conference on Environmental Protection and Disaster Risks and 10th Annual CMDR COE Conference on Crisis Management and Disaster Response by Nina Dobrinkova, Orlin Nikolov
English | PDF | 2023 | 376 Pages | ISBN : 3031267532 | 114.28 MB

This book presents topics that are challenging fields that scientific world is trying to address as much as it can. Earthquakes, floods, fires, droughts, blizzards, dust storms, natural releases of toxic gases and liquids, diseases, and other environmental variations affect hundreds of millions of people each year. Many disaster events are triggered by human activities. Dealing with these problems will require systems thinking and integrating multidisciplinary science. Actions in these directions are taken more and more in the recent years by political bodies, NGOs, and scientific groups trying to find sustainable solutions for the future generations. Every point of view matters when it comes to our global home—The Planet Earth.

Wellness Protocol for Smart Homes: An Integrated Framework for Ambient Assisted Living

Wellness Protocol for Smart Homes: An Integrated Framework for Ambient Assisted Living by Hemant Ghayvat
English | EPUB | 2017 | 165 Pages | ISBN : 3319520474 | 6.75 MB

This book focuses on the development of wellness protocols for smart home monitoring, aiming to forecast the wellness of individuals living in ambient assisted living (AAL) environments. It describes in detail the design and implementation of heterogeneous wireless sensors and networks as applied to data mining and machine learning, which the protocols are based on. Further, it shows how these sensor and actuator nodes are deployed in the home environment, generating real-time data on object usage and other movements inside the home, and therefore demonstrates that the protocols have proven to offer a reliable, efficient, flexible, and economical solution for smart home systems.
