Sommario/riassunto

The rapid decline in the world's linguistic diversity has prompted the emergence of documentary linguistics. While documentary linguistics aims primarily at creating a durable, accessible and comprehensive record of languages, it has also been a driving force in developing language annotation and analysis software, archiving architecture, improved fieldwork methodologies, and new standards in data accountability and accessibility. More recently, researchers have begun to recognize the immense potential available in the archived data as a source for linguistic analysis, so that the field has become of increasing importance for typologists, but also for neighbouring disciplines. The present volume contains contributions by practitioners of language documentation, most of whom have been involved in the Volkswagen Foundation's DoBeS programme (Dokumentation Bedrohter Sprachen). The topics covered in the volume reflect a field that has matured over the last decade and includes both retrospective accounts as well as those that address new challenges: linguistic annotation practice,



fieldwork and interaction with speech communities, developments and challenges in archiving digital data, multimedia lexicon applications, corpora from endangered languages as a source for primary-data typology, as well as specific areas of linguistic analysis that are raised in documentary linguistics.

Sommario/riassunto

This book reviews the latest advances and practical applications of smart technologies applied to water resource management. Bridging environmental chemistry, engineering, and information technology, the book offers a multidisciplinary perspective on how digital innovations are reshaping water monitoring, infrastructure diagnostics, and decision-making processes. Chapters by expert contributors cover topics such as the applications of machine learning for drinking water pipeline replacement, geospatial technologies, satellite and remote sensing technologies, Internet - of - Things (IOT), cybersecurity, robotics in water monitoring and artificial intelligence. Particular attention is given to the applications in real-time modelling of flood forecasting in urban drainage systems and the implementation of smart water networks. With detailed case studies and industry insights, this book highlights practical implementations such as smart water networks, optimal sensor deployment, and AI-driven service line material detection. Given its breadth, the book is a valuable resource for researchers, scholars and students, and serves as a roadmap for water resource engineers and planners tackling water security and diverse water resources portfolios.
