Sommario/riassunto

The development of earth observation and computing technology has promoted the wide application of spatio-temporal big data and artificial intelligence. The enrichment of data and the improvement of computational performance make it possible to perform spatio-temporal analysis and computation on a larger scale. Therefore, it is necessary to study the optimization methods and application methods of high performance geocomputing, starting from GIS architecture, in



order to form a high performance GIS that can serve the society and economy and support various applications. This book focuses on the architecture, technology, platform and application of high-performance GIS, analyzes the key technologies of spatio-temporal big data organization and access, parallelized spatial analysis and processing, large-scale map rendering and parallel visualization under the high-performance computing architecture, explains how to build high-performance geographic information applications, and looks forward to the trend of the new generation of GIS.

Sommario/riassunto

In this exploration of the nature of occupation, Eric Carlton concentrates on the complex relationship between military authority and civilian population and explores the methods used by dominant powers ot maintain their authority. Drawing from a wide range of case studies, including examinations of British colonial interests in India and the Nazi atrocities of the Second World War, Dr Carlton assesses the nature of social control and the effect of ideology on the exercising of power, and considers the moral aspects of military repression.
