After Vishwamitra and The Legend of Parshu-Raam, comes the epic saga of the king of Bharatvarsh! The kingdoms of Nabhi-varsh lie scattered in the wake of Parshu-Raam's assault on corrupt Kshatriyas. While evil has been wiped out from the land, the important task of nation-building remains. In the forest of Naimish-Aranya, the stunned king of Hastinapur watches a young boy play with lion cubs. Who is this fearless child? How does his destiny entwine with that of this ancient kingdom? Will he be able to bring order to the nation and defend it against the invaders lining up at its borders? Reimagined brilliantly, this novel tells the story of the son of Dushyant and Shakuntala, the grandson of Brahmarishi Vishwamitra, the man who changed the destiny of our country and gave it a brand new name-Bharat! Praise for The Legend of Parshu-Raam 'The narration is refreshingly engaging as well as simple with no dull moment anywhere'-indiafacts.org Praise for Vishwamitra 'The author's passion for fusing the physical and quantum sciences as we know them today, aids his narrative with accuracy and authenticity, and hence furthers its appeal as a provocative read'-Pioneer

Constrained Reinforcement Learning with Average Reward Objective

Constrained Reinforcement Learning with Average Reward Objective

Reinforcement Learning (RL) serves as a versatile framework for sequential decision-making, finding applications across diverse domains such as robotics, autonomous driving, recommendation systems, supply chain optimization, biology, mechanics, and finance. The primary objective of these applications is to maximize the average reward. Real-world scenarios often necessitate adherence to specific constraints during the learning process. This monograph focuses on the exploration of various model-based and model-free approaches for Constrained RL within the context of average reward Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). The investigation commences with an examination of model-based strategies, delving into two foundational methods – optimism in the face of uncertainty and posterior sampling. Subsequently, the discussion transitions to parametrized model-free approaches, where the primal dual policy gradient-based algorithm is explored as a solution for constrained MDPs. The monograph provides regret guarantees and analyzes constraint violation for each of the discussed setups. For the above exploration, the authors assume the underlying MDP to be ergodic. Further, this monograph extends its discussion to encompass results tailored for weakly communicating MDPs, thereby broadening the scope of its findings and their relevance to a wider range of practical scenarios.
Modeling and Optimization of Latency in Erasure-coded Storage Systems
The advent of Big Data analytics and cloud computing has resulted in an unprecedented increase in the demand for distributed data storage demand. Companies are constantly on the lookout for ways of reducing this cost and improving reliability. Erasure coding has emerged as a promising technique to achieve these goals and most major tech companies have adopted it. However, one major issue in such systems is the characterization and optimization of access latency when data objects are erasure coded in distributed storage. In this monograph, the authors provide a review of recent theoretical and practical progress on systems that employ erasure codes for distributed storage. Starting with an overview the key challenges and research problems, the authors give an overview of different models and approaches that have been developed to quantify latency of erasure-coded storage. They also extend the discussions to video streaming from erasure-coded distributed storage systems. Practical implementations of erasure-coded storage are then discussed in real-world storage systems such as in content delivery and caching. This monograph is aimed at students, researchers and practitioners in information theory active in the research and development of modern day distributed storage systems.

India and South Africa, two states that bookended the process of twentieth century decolonization, punched above their weight in global politics in their initial years of liberation. Postscripts on Independence analyses and compares the making of foreign policy ideas, identities, and institutions of postcolonial India and South Africa. It shows how both countries have responded to the contradictory demands of their freedom struggles against colonialism and pragmatic challenges of international politics. Vineet Thakur argues that the countries' geopolitical positioning in South Asia and southern Africa make them regional powers, with similar sets of problems and prospects, as both continue to grapple with the idea of maintaining regional and/or continental hegemony. By undertaking a comparative analysis, he explores a framework to understand the foreign policymaking fears, aspirations, and international behaviour of these two states.

This book explores the Indian tradition of liberalism through a critical intellectual biography of Valangaiman Sankaranarayana Srinivasa Sastri (1869–1946). A notable politician, diplomat and educationist in colonial India, Sastri was a founding member of the National Liberal Federation and was one of the leading liberals — often dismissed as ‘a body of sycophants and self-seekers’ — of the post-1918 period of Indian pre-independence history. Through Sastri, the book shines a light on the contributions of liberals in Indian political history and challenges the convenient binaries in Indian historiography.Examining the role that liberals like Sastri played in bridging the gap between the officials and the nationalists, it traces the practice of liberal politics in the post-1918 period of Indian nationalist struggle and the broader contours of Indian liberalism. Accessible, comprehensive and scholarly, this book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of Indian history, especially the nationalist movement, political thought, and South Asian studies.

MORE THAN 100,000 COPIES SOLD One small idea can ignite a revolution just as a single matchstick can start a fire. One such idea--putting employees first and customers second--sparked a revolution at HCL Technologies, the IT services giant. In this candid and personal account, Vineet Nayar--HCLT's celebrated CEO--recounts how he defied the conventional wisdom that companies must put customers first, then turned the hierarchical pyramid upside down by making management accountable to the employees, and not the other way around. By doing so, Nayar fired the imagination of both employees and customers and set HCLT on a journey of transformation that has made it one of the fastest-growing and profitable global IT services companies and, according to BusinessWeek, one of the twenty most influential companies in the world. Chapter by chapter, Nayar recounts the exciting journey of how he and his team implemented the employee first philosophy by: * Creating a sense of urgency by enabling the employees to see the truth of the company's current state as well as feel the "romance" of its possible future state * Creating a culture of trust by pushing the envelope of transparency in communication and information sharing * Inverting the organizational hierarchy by making the management and the enabling functions accountable to the employee in the value zone * Unlocking the potential of the employees by fostering an entrepreneurial mind-set, decentralizing decision making, and transferring the ownership of "change" to the employee in the value zone Refreshingly honest and practical, this book offers valuable insights for managers seeking to realize their aspirations to grow faster and become self-propelled engines of change.
