CSEI: International Conference on Computer Science, Electronics and Industrial Engineering (CSEI)
This book provides insights into the 5th Edition of the Proceedings of the Conference on Computer Science, Electronics, and Industrial Engineering (CSEI 2022) held in Ambato, Ecuador. This event brings together researchers, students, and professionals from the industrial and academic sectors, seeking to create and strengthen links between issues of joint interest, thus promoting technology and innovation nationwide. The topics of knowledge covered by the event are smart trends for industrial applications, the Internet of things (IoT), control and automation engineering, computer science, and health informatics. The book is helpful for active researchers and practitioners in the field.
Plant-Microbiome Nanotechnology
This book examines the interplay between plants and their microbiomes to leverage the potential of nanotechnology to advance sustainable farming practices. It provides information on integration of nanomaterials with microbiome science thus providing solutions for improving soil health, disease resistance and nutrient uptake, ultimately leading to more robust crop yields. The chapters cover a range of critical topics, including the application of nanotechnology in enhancing plant-microbe interactions, the development of eco-friendly farming techniques, and the role of microbiomes in sustainable agriculture. Through detailed case studies and insights from leading experts, the book emphasizes ...
Social Innovation and Sustainability Transition
This book uses a historical and modern lens to reimagine the role that Extension could potentially play in catalyzing reciprocal, co-learning relationships between Land-Grant Universities and their diverse local constituencies. The establishment of statewide extension systems was once seen as a way to ensure that Land-Grant Universities would be accessible and responsive to all of a state’s residents. Extension systems continue to offer a front-door to a major public university in almost every county of the United States, but they tend to be viewed primarily as a way to translate science or distribute information from the university to the public. This books argues for the importance of Ex...
Nanotherapeutic Strategies and New Pharmaceuticals (Part 2)
Advances in technology have enabled medicinal chemists to discover and formulate several highly specific, biocompatible, and non-toxic therapeutic agents for clinical applications. Nanotechnology has achieved significant progress in the last few decades and is crucial in every field of science and technology. Nanotechnology-based pharmaceuticals offer multifaceted and alternative methodologies in comparison to the limitations of many conventional clinical therapies. Expertise in designing and developing nanoformulations has helped in targeted drug delivery. Recently, the use of innovative therapeutic agents, particularly in nanomedicine, has accounted for a significant portion of the global ...
Plant Quarantine Challenges under Climate Change Anxiety
The effects of climate change on food safety and plant health represent a relatively new area of study. However, evidence from recent studies is clear: climate change contributes to increased and new food safety & plant health risks as one of several global change factors. This volume analyzes the scientific understanding of the relationship between climate change, food safety, plant pests, plant diseases, and trade. It identifies and discusses four key areas for future policy consideration: risk assessment, SPS capacity in developing countries, climate change resilience, and basic research challenges. We must effectively communicate the impacts of climate change on plant health and build th...
Eco-Social Transformation and Community-Based Economy
Worldwide societal problems such as mass unemployment, growing social disparities, public and private poverty, social exclusion, environmental destruction and the evidence of climate change are increasing and becoming ever more visible. They require urgent and sustainable long-term solutions. Eco-Social Transformation and Community-Based Economy provides a transdisciplinary conception of community based socially productive approaches to eco-social transformation and sustainability. It introduces interdisciplinary discourses, basic theoretical concepts, participatory and community-based research, development strategies and practical prospects and considers them in the context of both eco-social transformation and eco-social work, especially with disadvantaged groups. With case studies that demonstrate the creative power of local embeddedness, diversity and cooperation, this book presents integrative local approaches as convincing examples of possible ways forward. It will be of interest to all scholars, students and activists working in community development, social development, social work and human geography.
Soils and Sustainable Agriculture
In "Soil and Sustainable Agriculture," delve into the intricate relationships between soil, plant life, water, and our broader environmental systems, and their collective impact on sustainable agricultural practices. This essential read offers a comprehensive exploration of soil's pivotal role as both a resource and a living ecosystem, vital for the health and productivity of agricultural landscapes. Understand the dynamic interactions that govern soil quality, water conservation, and plant nutrition, which are crucial for sustainable food production. This book serves as a critical guide for farmers, researchers, and policymakers to cultivate methods that safeguard our soil and environment for future generations. Discover how healthier soils lead to a healthier planet.
Political Change through Social Innovation
This book addresses the key question of why socially innovative initiatives, including attempts to rejuvenate democracy by introducing new modes of participation, are not leading to a democratization of the State or overcoming the gap between political leaders and people. Offering insights from three leading voices of contemporary social sciences to address the failures of contemporary democracies, the book explores the potentialities of progressive socio-political agendas, strategies, and movements seeking to overcome these failures.
