Fanny doesn't need friends or love at The Jane Austen Academy. She only needs her running and intends to lie low until she can try out for the Olympic track team. But the Academy is in danger, and in an effort to save it, Fanny must join forces with the friend she never knew she wanted. She finds herself center stage in the middle of the Academy's biggest love triangle as the lead in the school play... only this track star can't afford to break a leg.PRAISE FOR THE JANE AUSTEN ACADEMYEngaging characters, a gentle romance, budding friendships, and a payoff that is incredibly rewarding. --Indie JaneCute. Adorable. Genius. Amazing. I'm running out of synonyms... I loved all the friendships! Girl power! --Monique Morris, Goodreads***ABOUT THE JANE AUSTEN ACADEMY SERIESDive into the fabulous, fun lives of six Academy girls as their friendships are tested, torn, and ultimately triumph...The last thing that the girls at the elite Jane Austen Academy need is hot guys to flirt with. But over the summer the school has been sold, and like it or not, the guys are coming.

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This easy-to-follow textbook provides an exercise-driven guide to the use of the Discrete Event Systems Specification (DEVS) simulation modeling formalism and the System Entity Structure (SES) simulation model ontology supported with the latest advances in software architecture and design principles, methods, and tools for building and testing virtual Systems of Systems (SoS). The book examines a wide variety of SoS problems, ranging from cloud computing systems to biological systems in agricultural food crops. This enhanced and expanded second edition also features a new chapter on DEVS support for Markov modeling and simulation. Topics and features: Provides an extensive set of exercises throughout the text to reinforce the concepts and encourage use of the tools, supported by introduction and summary sections Discusses how the SoS concept and supporting virtual build and test environments can overcome the limitations of current approaches Offers a step-by-step introduction to the DEVS concepts and modeling environment features required to build sophisticated SoS models Describes the capabilities and use of the tools CoSMoS/DEVS-Suite, Virtual Laboratory Environment, and MS4 Me™ Reviews a range of diverse applications, from the development of new satellite design and launch technologies, to surveillance and control in animal epidemiology Examines software/hardware co-design for SoS, and activity concepts that bridge information-level requirements and energy consumption in the implementation Demonstrates how the DEVS formalism supports Markov modeling within an advanced modeling and simulation environment (NEW) This accessible and hands-on textbook/reference provides invaluable practical guidance for graduate students interested in simulation software development and cyber-systems engineering design, as well as for practitioners in these, and related areas. Dr. Bernard P. Zeigler is Emeritus Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Co-Director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Modeling and Simulation (ACIMS), at the University of Arizona, Tucson, USA. He is also Chief Scientist at RTSync, Rockville, MD, USA. Dr. Hessam S. Sarjoughian is Associate Professor of Computer Science and Co-Director of ACIMS at Arizona State University, Tempe, USA. |
