NEBULAR 15: The Agitator's Power
Author: Thomas Rabenstein
Publisher: SciFi-World Medien Verlag
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 123
Book Description
The year is 2113. The encounter with the Dualytes has changed the cosmic view of the decision-makers of the Solar Union. A merciless enemy lurks in the Milky Way and has the Solar System in his sight. Morgotradon, former battle commander of the Progonauts, now a subservient of the Dark Brotherhood, pulls his strings in the background. Although the expedition team succeeded in driving the despot from his strategic portal world, the threat to Humanity has not been averted. A replicant of Morgotradon has infiltrated the Union government undetected to destroy the existing structures and to spread chaos. To expose the agitator is the declared objective of Toiber Arkroid and his team, who are currently on Mars fighting the consequences of the disease spread by McCord. Everywhere in the Solar System people are feeling The Agitator’s Power ...

Object-Oriented Technology and Computing Systems Re-Engineering
Author: H. S. M. Zedan
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1782420614
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
This book delivers the latest developments in object technology and their impact in computing systems re-engineering. Object-oriented programming is here shown to provide support for constructing large scale systems that are cheaply built and with reusable components, adaptable to changing requirements and use efficient and cost-effective techniques.Internationally recognised authorities from Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the UK and the USA here record their research and development work on the industrial techniques and structured object-oriented methodologies in forward and reverse engineering of computing systems. This book takes stock of progress of that work showing its promise and feasibility, and how its structured technology can overcome the limitations of forward engineering methods used in industry. Forward methods are focused in the domain of reverse engineering to implement a high level of specification for existing software.The book contains the selected, quintessential content of the first UK Colloquium on Object Technology and Systems Re-Engineering held at Oxford University in 1998. The conference was sponsored by British Telecom Laboratories, EMSI limited and the OOSP Specialised Group of The British Computer Society. - Delivers the latest developments in object technology and their impact in computing systems re-engineering - Provides support for constructing large scale systems that are cheaply built and with reusable components, adaptable to changing requirements and use efficient and cost-effective techniques - Contains the content of the first UK Colloquium on Object Technology and Systems Re-Engineering held at Oxford University in 1998

Transport Phenomena and Unit Operations
Author: Richard G. Griskey
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0471722030
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 462
Book Description
The subject of transport phenomena has long been thoroughly and expertly addressed on the graduate and theoretical levels. Now Transport Phenomena and Unit Operations: A Combined Approach endeavors not only to introduce the fundamentals of the discipline to a broader, undergraduate-level audience but also to apply itself to the concerns of practicing engineers as they design, analyze, and construct industrial equipment. Richard Griskey's innovative text combines the often separated but intimately related disciplines of transport phenomena and unit operations into one cohesive treatment. While the latter was an academic precursor to the former, undergraduate students are often exposed to one at the expense of the other. Transport Phenomena and Unit Operations bridges the gap between theory and practice, with a focus on advancing the concept of the engineer as practitioner. Chapters in this comprehensive volume include: Transport Processes and Coefficients Frictional Flow in Conduits Free and Forced Convective Heat Transfer Heat Exchangers Mass Transfer; Molecular Diffusion Equilibrium Staged Operations Mechanical Separations Each chapter contains a set of comprehensive problem sets with real-world quantitative data, affording students the opportunity to test their knowledge in practical situations. Transport Phenomena and Unit Operations is an ideal text for undergraduate engineering students as well as for engineering professionals.

The Agitators
Author: Dorothy Wickenden
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1476760748
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
Harriet Tubman, strategically brilliant and uncannily prescient, rescued some seventy enslaved people from Maryland's Eastern Shore and shepherded them north along the underground railroad. In Auburn, New York, she entrusted passengers to Martha Coffin Wright, a Quaker abolitionist and leader of the women's rights movement, and Frances A. Seward, whose husband served as New York's governor and senator, and then as secretary of state under Abraham Lincoln. The Agitators opens in the 1820s, when Tubman is enslaved in Maryland and Wright and Seward are young homemakers in upstate New York, bound by law and tradition, and it ends after the Civil War. Many of the most prominent figures of the era-William H. Seward, Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Charles Sumner, John Brown, William Lloyd Garrison-are seen through the discerning eyes of the protagonists. So are the most explosive political debates: about the civil rights of African Americans and women, about the enlistment of Black troops, and about opposing interpretations of the Constitution. Wickenden traces the second American revolution these women fought to bring about and its lasting effects on the country. Profoundly relevant to our own time, The Agitators brings a vibrant, original voice to this transformative period in our history. Book jacket.

Exploiting East Asian Cinemas
Author: Ken Provencher
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1501319663
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
From the 1970s onward, “exploitation cinema” as a concept has circulated inside and outside of East Asian nations and cultures in terms of aesthetics and marketing. However, crucial questions about how global networks of production and circulation alter the identity of an East Asian film as “mainstream” or as “exploitation” have yet to be addressed in a comprehensive way. Exploiting East Asian Cinemas serves as the first authoritative guide to the various ways in which contemporary cinema from and about East Asia has trafficked across the somewhat-elusive line between mainstream and exploitation. Focusing on networks of circulation, distribution, and reception, this collection treats the exploitation cinemas of East Asia as mobile texts produced, consumed, and in many ways re-appropriated across national (and hemispheric) boundaries. As the processes of globalization have decoupled products from their nations of origin, transnational taste cultures have declared certain works as “art” or “trash,” regardless of how those works are received within their native locales. By charting the routes of circulation of notable films from Japan, China, and South Korea, this anthology contributes to transnationally-accepted formulations of what constitutes “East Asian exploitation cinema.”
