The Myths of Technology: Innovation and Inequality

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Burnett, Judith / Senker, Peter / Walker, Kathy, PUBLISHER: Lang, Peter, Publishing Inc., This book questions whether technologies are the rational, tangible, scientific, forward-thinking, neutral objects they are so often perceived to be, exploring instead how powerful, mythic ideas about technologies drive our social understanding and our expectations of them. Against a rising tide of information, we encounter significant technological, scientific, and medical advances which promise to create an educated, humane, and equal world. This book explores that promise, deconstructing technologies to conclude that though they do afford us significant and empowering advances, they remain largely cloaked in mystery, and often promise more than they can deliver. Contributors from diverse intellectual backgrounds and political and epistemological stances - spanning sociology and psychosocial investigations, innovation studies, and scientists - combine philosophical inquiry and empirical case studies to create a book which is at once provocative, innovative, and exciting in the challenges it poses.

Convex Analysis and Global Optimization

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hoang, Tuy / Hoang Tuy, Tuy / Hoang Tuy, PUBLISHER: Springer, Due to the general complementary convex structure underlying most nonconvex optimization problems encountered in applications, convex analysis plays an essential role in the development of global optimization methods. This book develops a coherent and rigorous theory of deterministic global optimization from this point of view. Part I constitutes an introduction to convex analysis, with an emphasis on concepts, properties and results particularly needed for global optimization, including those pertaining to the complementary convex structure. Part II presents the foundation and application of global search principles such as partitioning and cutting, outer and inner approximation, and decomposition to general global optimization problems and to problems with a low-rank nonconvex structure as well as quadratic problems. Much new material is offered, aside from a rigorous mathematical development. Audience: The book is written as a text for graduate students in engineering, mathematics, operations research, computer science and other disciplines dealing with optimization theory. It is also addressed to all scientists in various fields who are interested in mathematical optimization.

Design and Control of Structure of Advanced Carbon Materials

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rand, Brian / Appleyard, Stephen P. / Yardim, M. Ferhat, PUBLISHER: Springer, The review of carbon materials here presented regards them as forming a continuous spectrum, varying in crystallinity and nano?, micro? and macro?texture.

The following key questions are debated: What is intrinsically possible with carbon materials? How do we convert what is intrinsically possible into an engineering product that enhances our quality of life? How do we design and produce materials to satisfy the visions of the engineer?
