The book is divided into five sections. The first, dealing with the origins, starts from the scientific bases of the evolution of telecommunications in the nineteenth century (Bucci), addressing the developments of scientific thought that led to the revolution of the theory of fields (Morando), analysing the birth of the three fundamental forms of communication – telegraph (Maggi), telephone (Del Re) and radio (Falciasecca) – and ending with the contribution made by the Italian Navy to the development of telecommunications (Carulli, Pelosi, Selleri, Tiberio). The second section, on technical and scientific developments, presents the numerical processing of signals (Rocca), illustrating the genesis and metamorphosis of transmission (Pupolin, Benedetto, Mengali, Someda, Vannucchi), network packets (Marsan, Guadagni, Lenzini), photonics in telecommunications (Prati) and addresses the issue of research within the institutions (Fedi-Morello), dwelling in particular on the CSELT (Mossotto). The next section deals with the sectors of application, offering an overview of radio, television and the birth of digital cinema (Vannucchi, Visintin), military communications (Maestrini, Costamagna), the development of radar (Galati) and spatial telecommunications (Tartara, Marconicchio). Section four, on the organisation of the services and the role of industry, outlines the rise and fall of the telecommunications industries in Italy (Randi), dealing with the telecommunications infrastructures (Caroppo, Gamerro), the role of the providers in national communications (Gerarduzzi), the networks and the mobile and wireless services (Falciasecca, Ongaro) and finally taking a look towards the future from the perspective of the last fifty years (Vannucchi). The last section, dealing with training and dissemination, offers an array of food for thought: university training in telecommunications, with focus on the evolution of legislation and on the professional profiles (Roveri), social and cultural aspects (Longo and Crespellani) as well as a glance over the most important museums, collections and documentary sources for telecommunications in Italy (Lucci, Savini, Temporelli, Valotti). The book is designed to offer a compendium comprising different analytical approaches, and aims to foster an interest in technology in the new generations, in the hope of stimulating potentially innovative research.Electricity, electromagnetism & magnetismbicsscElectronics engineeringbicsscCommunications engineering / telecommunicationsbicsscElectricity, electromagnetism & magnetismElectronics engineeringCommunications engineering / telecommunicationsCANTONI VIRGINIOedt55341FALCIASECCA GABRIELEedtPelosi GiuseppeedtCANTONI VIRGINIOothFALCIASECCA GABRIELEothPelosi GiuseppeothBOOK9910572191203321Storia delle telecomunicazioni3033948UNINA04644nam 2201345z- 450 991063999570332120231214132851.03-0365-5855-1(CKB)5470000001633396(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/95794(EXLCZ)99547000000163339620202301d2022 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierEcosystem Service and Land-Use Changes in AsiaImplications for Regional SustainabilityBaselMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20221 electronic resource (328 p.)3-0365-5856-X This book highlights the role of research in Ecosystem Services and Land Use Changes in Asia. The contributions include case studies that explore the impacts of direct and indirect drivers affecting provision of ecosystem services in Asian countries, including China, India, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. Findings from these empirical studies contribute to developing sustainability in Asia at both local and regional scales.Ecosystem Service and Land-Use Changes in Asia Research & information: generalbicssccoastOdishaBrahmani Riverclimate resiliencewater managementwater qualityhydrological simulationmanagement planwater-energy nexusspatial water variabilityclimate changethermal power plantGanges River basin3Rs programlandscape sustainabilitymunicipal solid wastepig farmingresource circulationresource use efficiencyurban-rural nexuszero-waste lifestyleherderrangeland degradationperceptiontraditional rangeland management practicesMongoliaexpansion of impervious surfaceunderground space developmentdeep soil excavationSOC loss in deep soilurban renovationGuangzhou cityecological sensitivityecosystem service valuesCA-Markov modelurban expansionThree Gorges Reservoir arealand useecosystem servicesInVESTtopographic indexecosystem patternwetland ecosystemurban wetlandwetland ecosystem servicesMuthurajawela MarshNegombo Lagoonsustainabilityland change modelingscenario modelingwind erosion prevention servicerevised wind erosion equationgeo-detectorfood-energy-water securitynexusweighted mean methodindicator frameworkcirculating ecological sphereNagpurland use changeecosystem service valuepatch-general land use simulation (PLUS) modelGuanzhong Plain Urban Agglomerationheat stressWBGT indexhumidex indexpublic perceptionspayment for watershed ecosystem serviceswillingness to paywillingness to acceptpublic participationvillage tank cascade systemland use systemsecosystem services mappingecosystem services trade-offsecosystem services-based ecological restorationland-use changehotspot analysisGeodetectorcentral Yunnan urban agglomerationResearch & information: generalShoyama Kikukoedt1279882Dasgupta RajarshiedtEstoque RonaldedtShoyama KikukoothDasgupta RajarshiothEstoque RonaldothBOOK9910639995703321Ecosystem Service and Land-Use Changes in Asia3016107UNINA
