Waste Treatment: Reducing Global Waste (Green Technology)
Facts on File | 2009-09-30 | ISBN: 0816072043 | 198 pages | PDF | 21 MB Hazardous and nonhazardous wastes must be grouped by their physical form, chemical content, degree of hazard to the environment, or source in order to be treated by waste managers. These groupings also allow environmental scientists to learn about the trends in our society’s waste and in society itself. Waste types can change dramatically in a period of less than 100 years. For example, waste from electronic products poses a big problem in the world today but this was not considered a serious threat in the early 1900s.

Product Description

An increasing number of systems are exploiting mixed reality but to date there are no systematic methods, techniques or guidelines for the development of such systems. In bringing together contributions on a broad range of mixed reality development issues this book provides a sound theoretical foundation for a disciplined approach to mixed reality engineering.

Divided into three parts: interaction design, software design and implementation, the first section coversgeneric and specific mixed reality design elements and provides an overview of the design method; Part 2 addresses technical solutions for interaction techniques, development tools and a global view of the mixed reality software development process. The final section contains detailed case studies to highlight the application of mixed reality in a variety of fields including aviation, architecture, emergency management, games, and healthcare.

Product Description

The art, craft, discipline, logic, practice and science of developing large scale software products is in increasing need of a trustworthy, believable and professional base. This book is one of a series of three volumes, devoted to fill this need. This series of strongly related text books combine informal, engineeringly sound approaches with the rigour of formal, mathematics based approaches.

The present volume covers the basic principles and techniques of overall software development: From domains via requirements to software designs. Thus the book advocates a novel approach to software engineering based on the adage: Before requirements can be formulated one must understand the application domain. The book is therefore structured this way: From (i) the principles and techniques for the development of domain descriptions, via (ii) principles and techniques for the derivation of requirements prescriptions from domain models, to (iii) principles and techniques for the refinement of requirements into software designs: Architectures and component design.

Emphasis in the coverage of domain and requirements engineering is on
