Blockchain technology is considered a disruptive innovation that changes the ways companies and global processes operate. This technology has impressive powers to change this world for the better. This book examines the origins, emergence, challenges, and opportunities in the blockchain field, rethinking business strategy and readiness in the digital world and how blockchain technology would improve businesses. It provides a blockchain readiness model for managing supply chains and reviews enabling technologies such as AI, big data and organisational capabilities that support the adoption of blockchain technology. Through innovative design and simulation of a blockchain framework, it aims to...
This book covers both transmitters and receivers of modern microwave devices designed for a wide range of practical applications. It focuses on different types of antennas, filters, amplifiers, and oscillators and their optimization techniques for the design of networks, which are most useful in modern communication systems such as the Internet of Things, remote sensing, and space applications. Key Features: • Focuses on specific applications of microwave device design, such as wearable, implantable, body-centric networks, and Internet of Medical Things. • Covers the design and implementation of the defense networks and discusses the application of RADAR optimization algorithms. • Pres...
It is generally believed that collisions of particles reduce the self-diffusion coefficient. In this book, Erik Kalz shows that in classical systems under the effect of Lorentz force, which are characterized by diffusion tensors with antisymmetric elements, collisions surprisingly can enhance self-diffusion. In these systems, due to an inherent curving effect, the motion of particles is facilitated, instead of hindered by collisions. Consistent with this the author finds that the collective diffusion remains unaffected. Using a geometric model, he theoretically predicts a magnetic field governed crossover from a reduced to an enhanced self-diffusion. The physical interpretation is quantitatively supported by the force autocorrelation function, which turns negative with increasing the magnetic field. Using Brownian-dynamics simulations, he validates the predictions.
Functional Fluorescent Materials: Applications in Sensing, Bioimaging, and Optoelectronics explains functional molecular probes (organic/inorganic materials, polymers, nanomaterials), with a focus on those that represent spectroscopic properties with detection of different analytes and specific roles in molecular recognition and their applications. It broadly covers molecular recognition to applications of fluorescence reporters, starting from optoelectronic properties of materials, detection of heavy metals, through biological macromolecules, and further to a living cell, tissue imaging, and theranostics. Features: • Covers different aspects of fluorescence spectroscopy ranging from chemi...
