Clumsy Floodplains: Responsive Land Policy for Extreme Floods
by Thomas HartmannExtreme floods cause enormous damage in floodplains, which levees cannot prevent. Therefore, it is vital for spatial planning to provide space for water retention in these areas. Land use planners, water management agencies, landowners, and policymakers all agree on this challenge, but attempts to make the space for rivers to provide retention are generally not very successful. Adopting an innovative interdisciplinary approach, this book examines how society can manage the use of the floodplains along rivers in the face of extreme floods, focusing in particular on the relation between social arrangements and the elemental forces of floods. The book firstly analyses why contemporary floodplain management is so often clumsy and ineffective by looking at various real-life situations in Germany, using Cultural Theory to provide a much-needed, but previously neglected social perspective. These analyses show a pattern of activity resulting from different rationalities which dominate the floodplains in different phases. During extreme floods, it is rational to manage floodplains as dangerous areas; sandbags and disaster management dominate the scene. After some time, the rationality of control takes over the floodplain management; policymakers discuss flood risk and water managers build levees. When public attention diminishes, floodplains become inconspicuous until more and more stakeholders regard floodplains as profitable land. The current system of planning, law, and property rights even encourages stakeholders to act out their plural rationalities. A permanent dynamic imbalance of different rationalities leads to a robust social construction of the floodplains which results in viable but clumsy floodplains. In the course of time, however, the patterns of activity in the floodplains lead to an increase in intensity and frequency of extreme floods, and to more vulnerable potential damages in the floodplains. Risk increases. Coping with this situation needs another kind of floodplain management. This book proposes an innovative concept - Large Areas for Temporary Emergency Retention (LATER) - in "Clumsy Floodplains" as an alternative to levee-based flood protection. The concept aims at reducing damage by extreme floods in a catchment area by inundating less valuable areas to protect places that are more valuable. It finally examines how this LATER concept might be implemented in areas where there is currently a clumsy style of floodplain management, what interventions are required and how these might come about effectively. Again, using Cultural Theory, the book puts forward a valuable land policy solution which aims at implementing LATER in clumsy floodplains and which develops an obligatory insurance against natural hazards as a responsive land policy for LATER. The book represents the author's PhD research, which he conducted as research assistant at the department for Land Policy, Land Management and Municipal Geoinformation at the School of Spatial Planning, TU Dortmund University, Germany.

Clustering and Routing Algorithms for Wireless Sensor Networks: Energy Efficiency Approaches
by Pratyay Kuila Prasanta K JanaWireless Sensor Networks have a wide range of applications in different areas. Their main constraint is the limited and irreplaceable power source of the sensor nodes. In many applications, energy conservation of the sensor nodes and their replacement or replenishment due to the hostile nature of the environment is the most challenging issue. Energy efficient clustering and routing are the two main important topics studied extensively for this purpose. This book focuses on the energy efficient clustering and routing with a great emphasis on the evolutionary approaches. It provides a comprehensive and systematic introduction of the fundamentals of WSNs, major issues and effective solutions.
Clustering, Classification, and Time Series Prediction by Using Artificial Neural Networks (SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology)
by Patricia Melin Martha Ramirez Oscar CastilloThis book provides a new model for clustering, classification, and time series prediction by using artificial neural networks to computationally simulate the behavior of the cognitive functions of the brain is presented. This model focuses on the study of intelligent hybrid neural systems and their use in time series analysis and decision support systems. Therefore, through the development of eight case studies, multiple time series related to the following problems are analyzed: traffic accidents, air quality and multiple global indicators (energy consumption, birth rate, mortality rate, population growth, inflation, unemployment, sustainable development, and quality of life). The main contribution consists of a Generalized Type-2 fuzzy integration of multiple indicators (time series) using both supervised and unsupervised neural networks and a set of Type-1, Interval Type-2, and Generalized Type-2 fuzzy systems. The obtained results show the advantages of the proposed model of Generalized Type-2 fuzzy integration of multiple time series attributes. This book is intended to be a reference for scientists and engineers interested in applying type-2 fuzzy logic techniques for solving problems in classification and prediction. We consider that this book can also be used to get novel ideas for new lines of research, or to continue the lines of research proposed by the authors of the book.
Clustering for 21st Century Prosperity: Summary of a Symposium
by Charles W. WessnerResponding to the challenges of fostering regional growth and employment in an increasingly competitive global economy, many U. S. states and regions have developed programs to attract and grow companies as well as attract the talent and resources necessary to develop regional innovation clusters. These state and regionally based initiatives have a broad range of goals and increasingly include larger resources commitments, often with a sectoral focus and often in partnership with foundations and universities. Recent studies, however, have pointed out that many of these efforts lack the scale and the steady commitment needed for success. This has prompted new initiatives to coordinate and concentrate investments from a variety of federal agencies to develop research parks, business incubators, and other strategies to encourage entrepreneurships and high-tech development in the nation's regions. Understanding the nature of innovation clusters and public policies associated with successful cluster development is therefore of current relevance. Clustering for 21st Century Prosperity identifies best practices with regard to goals, structures, instruments, modes of operation, synergies across private and public programs, funding mechanisms and levels, and evaluation efforts. The committee, under the Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy (STEP) is reviewing selected state and regional efforts to capitalize on federal and state investments in areas of critical national needs. This review includes both efforts to strengthen existing industries as well as specific technology focus areas such as nanotechnology, stem cells, and advanced energy in order to better understand program goals, challenges, and accomplishments. As part of this study, the committee is convening a series of public workshops and symposia involving responsible local, state, and federal officials and other stakeholders. Drawing from discussions at these symposia, fact-finding meetings, and commissioned analyses of existing state and regional programs and technology focus areas, the committee will subsequently produce a final report with findings and recommendations focused on lessons, issues, and opportunities for complementary U. S. policies created by these state and regional initiatives.

Clustering Techniques for Image Segmentation
by Fasahat Ullah Siddiqui Abid YahyaThis book presents the workings of major clustering techniques along with their advantages and shortcomings. After introducing the topic, the authors illustrate their modified version that avoids those shortcomings. The book then introduces four modified clustering techniques, namely the Optimized K-Means (OKM), Enhanced Moving K-Means-1(EMKM-1), Enhanced Moving K-Means-2(EMKM-2), and Outlier Rejection Fuzzy C-Means (ORFCM). The authors show how the OKM technique can differentiate the empty and zero variance cluster, and the data assignment procedure of the K-mean clustering technique is redesigned. They then show how the EMKM-1 and EMKM-2 techniques reform the data-transferring concept of the Adaptive Moving K-Means (AMKM) to avoid the centroid trapping problem. And that the ORFCM technique uses the adaptable membership function to moderate the outlier effects on the Fuzzy C-meaning clustering technique. This book also covers the working steps and codings of quantitative analysis methods. The results highlight that the modified clustering techniques generate more homogenous regions in an image with better shape and sharp edge preservation.Showcases major clustering techniques, detailing their advantages and shortcomings;Includes several methods for evaluating the performance of segmentation techniques;Presents several applications including medical diagnosis systems, satellite imaging systems, and biometric systems.

CMOS Analog Design Using All-Region MOSFET Modeling
by Márcio Cherem Schneider Carlos Galup-MontoroComparing bipolar technology briefly but otherwise not considering it, Schneider and Galup-Montoro (both electrical engineering, Federal U. of Santa Catarina, Brazil) focus on analog MOS (metal-oxide-semiconductor) circuits at the transistor level. They use an accurate but simple MOS transistor model for design, in order to reduce the distance between hand design and simulation results. Instead of the usual separate analytical formulas for the strong-inversion and weak-inversion operation regions of a building block, they provide simple formulas that are valid in all operation regions, including moderate inversion. The unified design is particularly suitable for analog design in advanced complementary MOS (CMOS) technologies. Among their topics are temporal and spatial fluctuations in MOSFETs (MOS field-effect-transistors), current mirrors, basic gain stages, operational amplifiers, and fundamentals of sampled-data circuits. The text is suitable for analog CMOS design courses. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
