The Asian Summer Monsoon: Characteristics, Variability, Teleconnections and Projection focuses on the connections between the Indian Summer and East Asian Summer Monsoons, also including the South China Sea Summer Monsoon. While these systems have profound differences, their interactions have significant impacts on the climatic regimes in the region and throughout the world. In summer, the ASM engine pumps moisture transported across thousands of miles from the Indian and Pacific Oceans to the monsoon regions, producing heavy rains over south and east Asia and its adjacent marginal seas. This book reviews the different subsystems and their impact, providing guidance to enhance prediction models.

Londra - Irlanda 1897Sono passati cinque lunghi anni da quando Blaine, moglie del duca di Abercorn, stata abbandonata quasi subito dopo il matrimonio. Lo scandalo e la vedovanza - il duca era stato creduto morto in circostanze misteriose - l'hanno provata nell'anima e nei sentimenti, rendendola dura e malfidata nei confronti del mondo.Non pu credere ai suoi occhi quando una sera a teatro lo intravede in un palco. Un fantasma? Un'allucinazione? Ben presto Blaine si rende conto che non cos .Damon Hamilton tornato a casa, deciso a rimediare ai suoi errori e a riprendersi la moglie, ma dovr fare i conti con una donna, questa volta, una donna caparbia e intelligente che non si fa pi manipolare e con qualcosa di molto pi grande e potente, qualcosa che nessuno dei due si rende conto ancora di provare: l'amore.

Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are now an indispensable tool in scientific computing. This book discusses recent developments of MCMC methods with an emphasis on those making use of past sample information during simulations. The application examples are drawn from diverse fields such as bioinformatics, machine learning, social science, combinatorial optimization, and computational physics. Key Features: Expanded coverage of the stochastic approximation Monte Carlo and dynamic weighting algorithms that are essentially immune to local trap problems.A detailed discussion of the Monte Carlo Metropolis-Hastings algorithm that can be used for sampling from distributions with intractable normalizing constants.Up-to-date accounts of recent developments of the Gibbs sampler.Comprehensive overviews of the population-based MCMC algorithms and the MCMC algorithms with adaptive proposals. This book can be used as a textbook or a reference book for a one-semester graduate course in statistics, computational biology, engineering, and computer sciences. Applied or theoretical researchers will also find this book beneficial.
Chinese Netizens' Opinions on Death Sentences

Chinese Netizens' Opinions on Death Sentences

Few social issues have received more public attention and scholarly debate than the death penalty. While the abolitionist movement has made a successful stride in recent decades, a small number of countries remain committed to the death penalty and impose it with a relatively high frequency. In this regard, the People’s Republic of China no doubt leads the world in both numbers of death sentences and executions. Despite being the largest user of the death penalty, China has never conducted a national poll on citizens’ opinions toward capital punishment, while claiming “overwhelming public support” as a major justification for its retention and use. Based on a content analysis of 38,512 comments collected from 63 cases in 2015, this study examines the diversity and rationales of netizens’ opinions of and interactions with China’s criminal justice system. In addition, the book discusses China’s social, systemic, and structural problems and critically examines the rationality of netizens’ opinions based on Habermas’s communicative rationality framework. Readers will be able to contextualize Chinese netizens’ discussions and draw conclusions about commonalities and uniqueness of China’s death penalty practice.

This book proposes practical application paradigms for deep neural networks, aiming to establish best practices for real-world implementation.Over the past decade, deep neural networks have made significant progress. However, effectively applying these networks to solve various practical problems remains challenging, which has limited the widespread application of artificial intelligence. Artificial Intelligence Paradigms for Application Practice is the first to comprehensively address implementation paradigms for deep neural networks in practice. The authors begin by reviewing the development of artificial neural networks and provide a systematic introduction to the tasks, principles, and architectures of deep neural networks. They identify the practical limitations of deep neural networks and propose guidelines and strategies for successful implementation. The book then examines 14 representative applications in urban planning, industrial production, and transportation. For each case, the authors present a landing paradigm that effectively addresses practical challenges supported by illustrations, background information, related work, methods, experiments, and conclusions. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed implementation approaches.The book will benefit researchers, engineers, undergraduate, and graduate students interested in artificial intelligence, deep neural networks, large models, stable diffusion models, video surveillance, smart cities, intelligent manufacturing, intelligent transportation, and other related areas.
Integrated Modelling of Ecosystem Services and Land-Use Change

Integrated Modelling of Ecosystem Services and Land-Use Change

Springer Verlag, Singapore

This book presents essential case studies on the integrated modelling of ecosystem services and land-use change in the field of landscape ecology. The case studies were mainly conducted in the Zhangye oasis of the Hexi corridor and the upper reaches of the Heihe river basin, including Loess plateau (for wind power) and the inland waterways of the Yangtze River (for the regulation of extreme events). The book puts forward an integrated modelling method, including human activities, natural processes, land-use change, and ecosystem management, and explores multiple scenarios based on the interests of local managers and their implications for ecosystem services. As the book demonstrates, the integrated modelling method for ecosystem services and land-use change can serve as a valuable tool for gauging the impact of various development scenarios in this study area, and in other regions with similar characteristics. In addition, numerous charts and diagrams are included in each chapter, facilitating the simulation and assessment of specific land-use change impacts on ecosystem services in various study areas.

Cloud Data Management

In practice, the design and architecture of a cloud varies among cloud providers. We present a generic evaluation framework for the performance, availability and reliability characteristics of various cloud platforms. We describe a generic benchmark architecture for cloud databases, specifically NoSQL database as a service. It measures the performance of replication delay and monetary cost.Service Level Agreements (SLA) represent the contract which captures the agreed upon guarantees between a service provider and its customers. The specifications of existing service level agreements (SLA) for cloud services are not designed to flexibly handle even relatively straightforward performance and technical requirements of consumer applications. We present a novel approach for SLA-based management of cloud-hosted databases from the consumer perspective and an end-to-end framework for consumer-centric SLA management of cloud-hosted databases. The framework facilitates adaptive and dynamic provisioning of the database tier of the software applications based on application-defined policies for satisfying their own SLA performance requirements, avoiding the cost of any SLA violation and controlling the monetary cost of the allocated computing resources. In this framework, the SLA of the consumer applications are declaratively defined in terms of goals which are subjected to a number of constraints that are specific to the application requirements. The framework continuously monitors the application-defined SLA and automatically triggers the execution of necessary corrective actions (scaling out/in the database tier) when required. The framework is database platform-agnostic, uses virtualization-based database replication mechanisms and requires zero source code changes of the cloud-hosted software applications.
