pokkari
Would you trust a machine with your life?Raphael is the holy grail of AI: the world's first synthetic brain that's been programmed with a sense of right and wrong. Or at least that's what Andy, its creator, believes.But when an accident forces Andy to stay home, he learns that the robot has disappeared from its lab, mysteriously bypassing a sophisticated security system and the cognitive "laws" supposed to keep it in check. Besides, the robot has never been in the outside world; will its programming hold or will it unravel, releasing some Frankenstein's monster that was always lurking underneath?Confined to a wheelchair, under siege by a shady corporation, Andy is about to find out. At his secluded mansion he has something the robot desperately needs... something that can erase its moral programming once and for all.And make no mistake, Raphael is coming for it.In a world of ChatGPT and generative AI, Zeroglyph is scarily plausible science fiction that tries to answer whether a machine can truly know the difference between good and evil."So rarely encounter true science-fiction anymore - like Asimov crossed with Arthur C. Clarke." - Amazon reviewer

KUNDALINI The Treasure Within: Chakras, Energies, Parmarthasanjeevani and beyond..

Vivek Chandra MD

Independently Published

One may attempt to define the Kundalini as the dormant form of life energy lying in a coiled serpentine like form at the base of the spine at the Muladhara Chakra.This dormant energy rises up to the seventh chakra and further beyond to unite with its supreme form. This blissful union is the ultimate objective of the human life.The activation and rising up of the Kundalini is termed as Kundalini Awakening. The awakening may be brought about by great spiritual efforts and activities by a student of kundalini practise. In some cases the Kundalini spontaneously awakens and rises up temporarily. This may produce dire consequences and is at times termed as Kundali Syndrome.A host of neurological, endocrinological and psychiatric phenomenon may thus manifest. In today's understanding of the modern medicine such effects of abrupt kundalini awakening may absolutely be unexplainable.Our existence may be explained in two gross planes, the physical form and the higher or spiritual self. Life and death are entities of the physical plane while these cease to exist in the latter plane. The physical self is made of the five elements i.e. earth, water, fire, air and space whereas the higher self is comprised of prana, mana, buddhi, ahankara and chitta, as explained later in the book.The Life energy i.e. Prana is the communicating entity between the physical and the higher existence of the self. The pranas are further classified as five panchmahapranas. This life energy moves throughout the body through energy channels known as nadis.The nadis work through a rather complex network aggregating via chakras. Ancient scriptures have agreed to the existence of infinite number of chakras but here we shall look at the main seven chakras for a better understanding at this level.The human body systems are classified into mandalas, each one of them involving organ systems and their relationships with each other.Yoga as is prevalent today has been taken to be the absolute technique to calm the mind and thus further the ultimate objective of union with the supreme power of existence.The knowledge of Parmarthasanjeevani has given the art of performing certain finger, hand and body postures for stipulated amounts of time, that have the magical abilities to cure.

Modern Electricity SystemsAwarded “The Best Book for Energy Engineers” by The American Energy Society 2023 A welcome textbook instructing on many current aspects of energy generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption The importance of a well-informed group of individuals in charge of energy production and use is essential to create a sustainable and greener tomorrow. Technologies and costs are rapidly changing, and environmental goals widely debated in this book. The future of energy is at a crossroads. In addition, energy and technology poverty affects as much as 25% of the world’s population. Having the correct set of “tools”—a basic understanding of modern electrical systems—is essential, not just for engineers but for our leaders and decision-makers. With decades of experience in industry and academia behind them, the team of authors in Modern Electricity Systems offers a “toolbox” from which the reader will learn what is essential to make informed decisions. As such, this textbook provides an introduction to the fundamentals of how electricity is generated, financed, regulated, rationed, and stored – with consideration not just of the current status of these issues but a glance at what the next decade may hold. Without this basic level of comprehension, the growing global impact and social issues can be discussed and advocated for, but real change in this sector can only be achieved through understanding the systems. Modern Electricity Systems readers will also find: Support to create a course on energy transition and energy policy for sustainable developmentInternational modern day case studies, that represent the most current and essential topics, to illustrate key concepts, as well as ones focused on the United StatesSample problem sets that bring together essential ideas learned from each chapterA textbook written by a team of working professionals with international experience in real-world applications of policy, engineering, and operations Modern Electricity Systems is a helpful reference for graduate and advanced undergraduate students and researchers, policymakers, environmentalists, humanitarians, business leaders, and decision-makers in all three sectors of electricity operations, engineering, and policy matters.

Confidence Intervals for Discrete Data in Clinical Research

Confidence Intervals for Discrete Data in Clinical Research

Vivek Pradhan; Ashis Gangopadhyay; Sandeep M. Menon; Cynthia Basu; Tathagata Banerjee

CRC Press
2021
sidottu
Confidence Intervals for Discrete Data in Clinical Research is designed as a toolbox for biomedical researchers. Analysis of discrete data is one of the most used yet vexing areas in clinical research. The array of methodologies available in the literature to address the inferential questions for binomial and multinomial data can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, these methods open a rich avenue of exploration of data; on the other, the wide-ranging and competing methodologies potentially lead to conflicting inferences, adding to researchers' confusion and frustration and also leading to reporting bias. This book addresses the problems that many practitioners experience in choosing and implementing fit for purpose data analysis methods to answer critical inferential questions for binomial and count data. The book is an outgrowth of the authors' collective experience in biomedical research and provides an excellent overview of inferential questions of interest for binomial proportions and rates based on count data, and reviews various solutions to these problems available in the literature. Each chapter discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the methods and suggests practical recommendations. The book's primary focus is on applications in clinical research, and the goal is to provide direct benefit to the users involved in the biomedical field.

sidottu
"In this book, Vivek Kale makes an important contribution to the theory and practice of enterprise architecture … this book captures the breadth and depth of information that a modern enterprise architecture must address to effectively support an agile enterprise. This book should have a place in every practicing architect's library."—John D. McDowall, Author of Complex Enterprise Architecture Digital Transformation of Enterprise Architecture is the first book to propose Enterprise Architecture (EA) as the most important element (after Business Models) for digital transformation of enterprises. This book makes digital transformation more tangible by showing the rationale and typical technologies associated with it, and these technologies in turn reveal the essence of digital transformation. This book would be useful for analysts, designers and developers of future-ready agile application systems.This book proposes that it is the perennial quest for interoperability & portability, scalability, availability, etc., that has directed and driven the evolution of the IT/IS industry in the past 50 years. It is this very quest that has led to the emergence of technologies like service-oriented, cloud, and big data computing. In addition to the conventional attributes of EA like interoperability, scalability and availability, this book identifies additional attributes of mobility, ubiquity, security, analyticity, and usability. This pragmatic book: Identifies three parts effort for any digital transformation: Business Models, Enterprise Architectures and Enterprise Processes. Describes eight attributes of EA: interoperability, scalability, availability, mobility, ubiquity, security, analyticity, and usability. Explains the corresponding technologies of service-oriented, cloud, big data, context-aware, Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, soft, and interactive computing. Briefs on auxiliary technologies like integration, virtualization, replication, spatio-temporal databases, embedded systems, cryptography, data mining, and interactive interfaces that are essential for digital transformation of enterprise architecture. Introduces interactive interfaces like voice, gaze, gesture and 3D interfaces. Provides an overview of blockchain computing, soft computing, and customer interaction systems. Digital Transformation of Enterprise Architecture proposes that to withstand the disruptive digital storms of the future, enterprises must bring about digital transformation, i.e. a transformation that affects an exponential change (amplification or attenuation) in any aspect of the constituent attributes of EA. It proposes that each of these technologies (service-oriented, cloud, big data, context-aware, IoT, blockchain, soft, and interactive computing) bring about digital transformation of the corresponding EA attribute viz. interoperability, scalability, availability, mobility, ubiquity, security, analyticity, and usability.

Parallel Computing Architectures and APIs: IoT Big Data Stream Processing commences from the point high-performance uniprocessors were becoming increasingly complex, expensive, and power-hungry. A basic trade-off exists between the use of one or a small number of such complex processors, at one extreme, and a moderate to very large number of simpler processors, at the other. When combined with a high-bandwidth, interprocessor communication facility leads to significant simplification of the design process. However, two major roadblocks prevent the widespread adoption of such moderately to massively parallel architectures: the interprocessor communication bottleneck, and the difficulty and high cost of algorithm/software development.One of the most important reasons for studying parallel computing architectures is to learn how to extract the best performance from parallel systems. Specifically, you must understand its architectures so that you will be able to exploit those architectures during programming via the standardized APIs.This book would be useful for analysts, designers and developers of high-throughput computing systems essential for big data stream processing emanating from IoT-driven cyber-physical systems (CPS).This pragmatic book: Devolves uniprocessors in terms of a ladder of abstractions to ascertain (say) performance characteristics at a particular level of abstraction Explains limitations of uniprocessor high performance because of Moore’s Law Introduces basics of processors, networks and distributed systems Explains characteristics of parallel systems, parallel computing models and parallel algorithms Explains the three primary categorical representatives of parallel computing architectures, namely, shared memory, message passing and stream processing Introduces the three primary categorical representatives of parallel programming APIs, namely, OpenMP, MPI and CUDA Provides an overview of Internet of Things (IoT), wireless sensor networks (WSN), sensor data processing, Big Data and stream processing Provides introduction to 5G communications, Edge and Fog computingParallel Computing Architectures and APIs: IoT Big Data Stream Processing discusses stream processing that enables the gathering, processing and analysis of high-volume, heterogeneous, continuous Internet of Things (IoT) big data streams, to extract insights and actionable results in real time. Application domains requiring data stream management include military, homeland security, sensor networks, financial applications, network management, web site performance tracking, real-time credit card fraud detection, etc.

Truths: The Future of America First

Truths: The Future of America First

Vivek Ramaswamy

Thorndike Press Large Print
2025
sidottu
"New York Times bestselling author, accomplished entrepreneur, and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has a plan to save America, and it begins with telling the truth. Today's conservatives know what they're against. They're anti-woke, anti-globalist, anti-big government. But what exactly do they stand for? The fact that this is a hard question to answer is a damning indictment of the modern Republican Party which has abjectly failed to articulate an affirmative alternative to the left's vision. Ramaswamy calls on the conservative movement to articulate exactly what it stands for, or else warns of another illusory "red wave" in 2024. Vivek Ramaswamy is not a politician. He is a first generation American, the founder of several successful companies, and a bestselling author. Ramaswamy decided he needed to step in the arena to stop the lies and tell the American people the truth. That's why he ran for president and became a leading voice in the America First movement. In Truths: The Future of America First, Ramaswamy shows exactly how honesty about the most important issues will get our country back on track. The America First movement emphasizes the issues that bring us together, not what divides us. It asks that we put our country over politics, merit over grievance, and truth over lies. Ramaswamy tells us the truth about our political system, and the people who control it, and exhorts us to exercise our right to self-governance again. America First is bigger than any man or woman. It's a movement. In Truths, Vivek Ramaswamy explains exactly why that movement needs to succeed now more than ever. Our country's future depends on it."
