Design and Build Great Web APIs: Robust, Reliable, and Resilient
No full textThe content in this book follows a learning path I’ve developed over the years
to help developers from varying backgrounds get a foothold and gain experience in the API space.
This book is aimed at software developers and designers looking to quickly
get up to speed on how to design and build web APIs. Since the content is
based on training material I’ve used over the years, this book could be handy
should you put together your own API training course for your team or
company.
The book is organized into five parts: Getting Started, The Design Phase, The
Build Phase, The Release Phase, and Appendixes. Each part marks a key set
of skills in the journey from thinking about APIs to actually getting them up
and running in production. The following is a quick summary of each of the
five parts of the book

Performance Measurement Systems: Design and Adoption in German Multinational Companies
No full textPerformance Measurement Systems (PMSs) are of utmost importance for multinational companies since they provide head offices with information on the subsidiaries’ performance and are expected to influence the subsidiaries’ decisions. However, despite their high importance, little is known about the design and adoption of PMSs in multinational companies. Therefore, this study analyzes in detail how head offices of German multinational companies design their PMSs. Furthermore, it also investigates how this PMS is adopted by the subsidiaries of these multinational companies. The findings have implications for researchers and practitioners such as management accountants in multinational companies’ head offices and subsidiaries
Air Traffic Management and Systems III: Selected Papers of the 5th ENRI International Workshop on ATM/CNS (EIWAC2017)
No full textThis proceedings provides novel concepts and techniques for air traffic management (ATM) and communications, navigation, and surveillance (CNS) systems. The volume consists of selected papers from the 5th ENRI International Workshop on ATM/CNS (EIWAC2017) held in Tokyo in November 2017, the theme of which was “Drafting Future Skies”. Included are key topics to realize safer and more efficient skies in the future, linked to the integrated conference theme consisting of long-term visions based on presentations from various fields. The proceedings is dedicated not only to researchers, academicians, and university students, but also to engineers in the industry, air navigation service providers (ANSPs), and regulators of aviation
Recent Trends in Signal and Image Processing : Proceedings of ISSIP 2018
No full textThis book presents fascinating, state-of-the-art research findings in the field of signal and image processing. It includes conference papers covering a wide range of signal processing applications involving filtering, encoding, classification, segmentation, clustering, feature extraction, denoising, watermarking, object recognition, reconstruction and fractal analysis. It addresses various types of signals, such as image, video, speech, non-speech audio, handwritten text, geometric diagram, ECG and EMG signals; MRI, PET and CT scan images; THz signals; solar wind speed signals (SWS); and photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals, and demonstrates how new paradigms of intelligent computing, like quantum computing, can be applied to process and analyze signals precisely and effectively. The book also discusses applications of hybrid methods, algorithms and image filters, which are proving to be better than the individual techniques or algorithms
Construction Safety Informatics
No full textThis book examines construction safety from the perspective of informatics and econometrics. It demonstrates the potential of employing various information technology approaches to share construction safety knowledge. In addition, it presents the application of econometrics in construction safety studies, such as an analytic hierarchy process used to create a construction safety index. It also discusses structure equation and dynamic panel models for the analysis of construction safety claims. Lastly, it describes the use of mathematical and econometric models to investigate construction practitioners’ safety
Internet of Things Security and Data Protection
No full textThis book provides an overview of the most recent developments in Internet of Things (IoT) security and data protection. It presents the results of several international research projects addressing this topic from complementary angles. It starts by analyzing the main privacy and security threats on IoT, as well as the evolution of data protection norms, such as the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and their impact on IoT. Through a comprehensive and systematic approach, the contributors present new perspectives on IoT & Cloud Computing security requirements. They discuss the most recent approach to support trusted IoT, including new models of privacy risk assessment, labeling and certification, and contractual tools (such as Privacy PACT). Practical implementations, such as in the European Large Scale Pilots on IoT for Smart Cities (Synchronicity), are presented, explaining how they address security, privacy and data protection. Finally, innovative models to secure IoT systems are presented for the network and end-nodes security, including network threats analysis.
Shares results from several international research projects on IoT, cybersecurity, and privacy;
Combines complementary expertise from top experts in IoT, security, and data protection;
Provides a comprehensive view on how to protect IoT deployments and make them comply with the GDPR

Low Energy Flight: Orbital Dynamics and Mission Trajectory Design
No full textThe book focuses on the orbital dynamics and mission trajectory (transfer or target trajectory) design of low-energy flight in the context of modern astrodynamics. It investigates various topics that either offer new methods for solving classical problems or address emerging problems that have yet to be studied, including low-thrust transfer trajectory design using the virtual gravity field method; transfer in the three-body system using invariant manifolds; formation flying under space-borne artificial magnetic fields; and the orbital dynamics of highly irregular asteroids. It also features an extensive study of the orbital dynamics in the vicinity of contact binary asteroids, including the 1:1 ground-track resonance, the equilibrium points and their stability, and the third-order analytical solution of orbital motion in the vicinity of the non-collinear equilibrium point.
Given its breadth of coverage, the book offers a valuable reference guide for all engineers and researchers interested in the potential applications of low-energy space missions
