We are increasingly seeing computer systems which are expected to function without operator intervention. This is perhaps acceptable for running computer networks or traffic lights; however, we are now seeing computer systems deployed to qualitatively influence human judgments such as rulings on legal disputes or fitness for work to evaluate disability benefits. In keeping with the precautionary principle, it is important that those who are developing this capability technologists and scientists think through its potential implications. The aim of this book is to explore the technological and social and implications of computers and robots becoming increasingly aware of their environment and the people in it, and their being increasingly self-aware of their own existence within it. The wide-ranging scope of the text covers three different angles of the concept of the computer after me: (1) the next generation of computationally powerful aware systems; (2) systems in which the computer is aware of qualitatively impact human concerns such as law, health and rules; and (3) computers and robots which are aware of themselves.

Power Ultrasonics: Applications of High-Intensity Ultrasound
$256.00
The industrial interest in ultrasonic processing has revived during recent years because ultrasonic technology may represent a flexible �green� alternative for more energy efficient processes.A challenge in the application of high-intensity ultrasound to industrial processing is the design and development of specific power ultrasonic systems for large scale operation. In the area of ultrasonic processing in fluid and multiphase media the development of a new family of power generators with extensive radiating surfaces has significantly contributed to the implementation at industrial scale of several applications in sectors such as the food industry, environment, and manufacturing. Part one covers fundamentals of nonlinear propagation of ultrasonic waves in fluids and solids. It also discusses the materials and designs of power ultrasonic transducers and devices. Part two looks at applications of high power ultrasound in materials engineering and mechanical engineering, food processing technology, environmental monitoring and remediation and industrial and chemical processing (including pharmaceuticals), medicine and biotechnology.Covers the fundamentals of nonlinear propagation of ultrasonic waves in fluids and solids.Discusses the materials and designs of power ultrasonic transducers and devices.Considers state-of-the-art power sonic applications across a wide range of industries.
