Social Media Analytics Strategies and Governance

Social Media Analytics Strategies and Governance

Social media has spread rapidly on the global stage driving consumers’ attention and influence both consciously and subconsciously. Whilst this type of platform may have been initially designed as a tool for open communication and expression it is also being utilized as a digital tool with widescale use cases. The intelligence explosion information overload and disinformation play a significant part regarding individual group and country perceptions. The complex nature of this data explosion created an increasing demand and use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to help provide ‘big insights’ to ‘big data’. AI and ML enable the analysis and dissemination of vast amounts of data however the ungoverned pace at which AI and autonomous systems have been deployed has created unforeseen problems. Many algorithms and AI systems have been trained on limited or unverified datasets creating inbuilt and unseen biases. Where these algorithmic tools have been deployed in high impact systems there are documented occurrences of disastrous decision making and outcomes that have negatively impacted people and communities. Little to no work had been conducted in its vulnerability and ability to exploit AI itself. So AI and autonomous systems whilst being a force for societal good could have the potential to create and exacerbate societies greatest challenges. This is a cohesive volume that addresses challenging problems and presents a range of innovative approaches and discussion. | Social Media Analytics Strategies and Governance

Automation and Human Performance Theory and Applications

Automation and Human Performance Theory and Applications

There is perhaps no facet of modern society where the influence of computer automation has not been felt. Flight management systems for pilots diagnostic and surgical aids for physicians navigational displays for drivers and decision-aiding systems for air-traffic controllers represent only a few of the numerous domains in which powerful new automation technologies have been introduced. The benefits that have been reaped from this technological revolution have been many. At the same time automation has not always worked as planned by designers and many problems have arisen-from minor inefficiencies of operation to large-scale catastrophic accidents. Understanding how humans interact with automation is vital for the successful design of new automated systems that are both safe and efficient. The influence of automation technology on human performance has often been investigated in a fragmentary isolated manner with investigators conducting disconnected studies in different domains. There has been little contact between these endeavors although principles gleaned from one domain may have implications for another. Also with a few exceptions the research has tended to be empirical and only theory-driven. In recent years however various groups of investigators have begun to examine human performance in automated systems in general and to develop theories of human interaction with automation technology. This book presents the current theories and assesses the impact of automation on different aspects of human performance. Both basic and applied research is presented to highlight the general principles of human-computer interaction in several domains where automation technologies are widely implemented. The major premise is that a broad-based theory-driven approach will have significant implications for the effective design of both current and future automation technologies. This volume will be of considerable value to researchers in human | Automation and Human Performance Theory and Applications

The Science of Composting

The Science of Composting

FROM THE PREFACEThe main objective of composting is to transform organic materials into a stable usable product. Often organic materials which may have limited beneficial use in their raw state or have regulatory disposal constraints can be transformed by composting into marketable products. The limits on beneficial reuse may be regulations or they may be due to the potential for materials to be putrescible or pathogenic. Composting can be a solution for each of these. The implementation of composting on a large scale (in contrast to home or backyard composting) involves materials handling. Technological implementation of composting must be consistent with the biological demand of the system. If the biological system is violated conditions will not be optimized for composting and problems such as odor generation insufficient aeration or moisture or a combination of these conditions may result. Past problems and closure of facilities have been largely due to violations of the biological systems. Product quality with respect to particle size inclusions moisture content and other physical aspects are a function of engineering design. A well designed system must have the biological and engineering principles in harmony at all times. | The Science of Composting

Information System Audit How to Control the Digital Disruption

Information System Audit How to Control the Digital Disruption

The digitalization of companies is a recurrent topic of conversation for managers. Companies are forced to evolve at least as fast as their competitors. They have to review their organization their processes and their way of working. This also concerns auditors in terms of their audit strategy and working methods. Digitalization is the tip of the iceberg that represents the increasing reliance on information technology of the company’s information system. Companies have seen new competitors succeed with a digital approach competitors that have opened new markets or new ways of interacting with their customers and all business processes can be digitalized. In this new paradigm auditors have to renew themselves too. Long gone are the days of auditors specializing in one technique like financial auditors or IT auditors. This makes it a phenomenal opportunity for auditing to renew itself embracing the vision of the company’s information system: long live the information system auditors! This book proposes you to go step by step from a common understanding of our history of auditing to gradually defining and justifying the impacts of digitalization on the audit strategy and the preparation of audits. | Information System Audit How to Control the Digital Disruption

Vibro-Acoustics Fundamentals and Applications

Vibro-Acoustics Fundamentals and Applications

The subject of vibro-acoustics is important for the design of machine elements and structures to minimize sound generated by them. For better machine designing it is necessary for machine designers (mechanical engineers) to have a thorough knowledge of vibro-acoustics. Furthermore since the design cycles of machines have become shorter designers will have to design quiet machines at the drawing-board stage rather than applying band-aid techniques after the machine has been built. Although there is common ground in the treatment of acoustics the subject of vibration is not very fortunate. Those interested in low-frequency vibration are generally concerned with the modal approach of using natural frequencies and mode shapes whereas those interested in vibro-acoustics in medium and high frequencies are generally concerned with the wave approach. Since both modal and wave approaches have their advantages it is a good idea to study both together to get the best out of them. This is useful for a better understanding the physics of vibro-acoustics. Written for students and professionals interested in gaining knowledge this book systematically integrates the relevant aspects of vibro-acoustics from various viewpoints. | Vibro-Acoustics Fundamentals and Applications
