Book Description
India launched its maiden scientific expedition to Antarctica way back in 1981 and ever since annual expeditions are launched to address thematic research in the contemporary areas of Antarctic Science and Engineering. The initial efforts and achievements of India are not only significant but are of historical importance. This book discusses a wide array of topics that have entered the mainstream of geotechnical and geo environmental engineering over the initial two and half decades of India’s presence in the icy continent ‘Antarctica’. At the same time, it highlights the lessons learnt in cryo-engineering technologies. It covers various articles on many aspects of environmental science and collates the overall achievements in the fascinating field of Antarctic engineering and environmental impact assessment. Accordingly, this book covers articles on wind energy by Ramesh et al., and engineering aspects in Antarctica by Rai. Similarly, Pathak has reviewed the engineering details of Dakshin Gangotri and Maitri. On the contrary, Sharma has provided an interesting history about the process of establishment of Dakshin Gangotri station. Similarly, communication aspects have been highlighted by Dhaka. Commercial polymers and their utility in cold region have been discussed by Dabholker et al. Besides, Tiwari and Khare have reviewed the environmental studies carried out during the initial 25 years in Antarctic research base ‘Maitri’. Similarly, Ramchandran and Sathe have studied the natural radioactivity in Antarctica while fire safety in Antarctica has been touched upon by Chatterjee. On the other hand, Veerbhadraiah and Jain have provided a status on environmental management services at Maitri station Additionally Tiwari has provided details on the new Indian Research Base ‘Bharti’ at Larsemann Hills region. It provides a one-stop reference for researchers and those working in industry and government.

Book Description
With the negotiation of the International Protocol on Environmental Protection in 1991, those nations conducting scientific research programs in Antarctica face new challenges for stewardship of the southern continent and protection of its environment. Science and Stewardship in the Antarctic examines how the implementation of the 1991 agreement in the United States can be done in such a way to ensure the compatibility of scientific and environmental protection goals in this global laboratory. The book also addresses the potential for the new requirements both to benefit and harm research activities in Antarctica.

Book Description
This volume contains the papers presented at the 2014 International Conference on Future Communication Technology and Engineering (FCTE2014), taking place in Shenzhen, China from 16-17 November 2014. Communication technologies are developing quickly and there are more possibilities for future communication technologies provided by the achievements made, rather than limitations. At the convention, innovative and inspiring ideas were presented; certain controversial topics were discussed (e.g. what are the most efficient/convenient methods for information communication) and what is the most probable prospect for future communication technology. It is difficult to make any definite conclusions from these presentations and discussions, but the desire and drive for improvement and development shown by the participants/authors are surely remarkable and respectable. In this book, 70 papers are included, chosen from hundreds of submissions contributed by scientists from various countries and regions, after careful reading and discussing by a team of reviewers. These papers cover almost every possible aspect of communication technology; including communication systems, automation and control engineering, electrical engineering, AI algorithms, signal processing, data mining, and knowledge-based systems.
