E-learning Methodologies
Fundamentals, technologies and applicationsMukta Goyal
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2021
E-learning has become an important part of our educational life with the development of e-learning systems and platforms and the need for online and remote learning. ICT and computational intelligence techniques are being used to design more intelligent and adaptive systems. However, the art of designing good real-time e-learning systems is difficult as different aspects of learning need to be considered including challenges such as learning rates, involvement, knowledge, qualifications, as well as networking and security issues. The earlier concepts of standalone integrated virtual e-learning systems have been greatly enhanced with emerging technologies such as cloud computing, mobile computing, big data, Internet of Things (IoT), AI and machine learning, and AR/VT technologies.

ESG Innovation for Sustainable Manufacturing Technology
Applications, designs and standardsWai Yie Leong
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2024
In an era defined by unprecedented environmental challenges, social inequalities, and corporate responsibility, the concept of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) has emerged as a transformative force. It is a set of practices used to evaluate the operational performance of a company or industry sector as it relates to social and environmental impact.

Edge Computing
Models, technologies and applicationsJavid Taheri
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2020
Cloud computing has evolved as a cost-effective, easy-to-use, elastic and scalable computing paradigm to transform today's business models. 5G, Industrial IoT, Industry 4.0 and China-2050 frameworks and technologies are introducing new challenges that cannot be solved efficiently using current cloud architectures. To handle the collected information from such a vast number of devices and actuators, and address these issues, novel concepts have been proposed to bring cloud-like resources closer to end users at the edge of the network, a technology called edge computing.

Eigenstructure Control Algorithms
Applications to aircraft/rotorcraft handling qualities designS. Srinathkumar
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2011
Eigenstructure control involves modification of both the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a system using feedback. Based on this key concept, algorithms are derived for the design of control systems using controller structures such as state feedback, output feedback, observer-based dynamic feedback, implicit and explicit modelfollowing, etc. The simple-to-use algorithms are well suited to evolve practical engineering solutions.

Electromagnetic Mixing Formulas and Applications
Ari Sihvola
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 1999
The book discusses homogenisation principles and mixing rules for the determination of the macroscopic dielectric and magnetic properties of different types of media. The effects of structure and anisotropy are discussed in detail, as well as mixtures involving chiral and nonlinear materials. High frequency scattering phenomena and dispersive properties are also discussed.

Electromagnetic Waveguides
Theory and applicationsS.F. Mahmoud
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 1991
There are several ways to classify electromagnetic waveguides. Depending on their boundaries, they can be classified into waveguides with perfectly reflecting walls or finite impedance walls, as well as open waveguides. In terms of their applications, there are the low attenuation and low delay distortion waveguides for telecommunication, the low crosspolar field waveguides used as feeds for reflector antennas in frequency reuse schemes, as well as the leaky feeders in continuous access communication systems. There are also the natural waveguides such as tunnels and the earth-ionosphere waveguide.

Evolutionary Ecology and Archaeology
Applications to Problems in Human Evolution and PrehistoryJack M Broughton
University of Utah Press, 2009
The field of evolutionary ecology, which applies Darwinian natural selection theory to the study of adaptive design in behavior, morphology, and life history, has produced substantial advances in understanding human evolution and prehistory. Editors Jack Broughton and Michael Cannon have compiled archaeological and paleoanthro- pological studies that provide a foundation for sustained development of the study of the human past.
Each of the twenty-four contributions represents a key benchmark in the field. Chapters are grouped by substantive topic and/or time period. Each of the following sections includes an introduction by the editors:
• Early Hominid Evolution and Behavior
• Pleistocene Foragers and Colonists
• Post-Glacial Adaptations
• Food Production Strategies
• Cooperation and Competition in Complex Societies
This volume’s broad range of research will foster sustained development of evolutionary ecology, and like Darwin’s work nearly 150 years ago will open wide fields of understanding of human prehistory.

Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) for Next Generation Cybersecurity
Concepts, challenges and applicationsFarhan Ullah
The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2025
As AI technologies progress and influence more facets of our lives, the requirement for openness and interpretability becomes increasingly important. Explainable AI (XAI) has the potential to be a paradigm shift in the next generation of AI systems. XAI strives to make AI algorithms and methods understandable by tackling trust, bias, compliance, and accountability challenges. XAI improves model disclosure, produces intrinsically interpretable deep learning approaches, offers real-time rationales, and promotes legitimate AI practice. These advances assist in the development of a more ethically sound AI ecosystem.
