If they make contact with an advanced alien civilization, how will humankind respond? In thinking about first contact, the contributors to this volume present new empirical and theoretical research on the societal dimensions of the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). Archaeologists and astronomers explore the likelihood that extraterrestrial intelligence exists, using scientific insights to estimate such elusive factors as the longevi 606 $aExtraterrestrial beings 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aExtraterrestrial beings. 676 $a999 701 $aVakoch$b Douglas A$0860217 701 $aHarrison$b Albert A$0915168 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457486803321 996 $aCivilizations beyond earth$92051050 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01576oam 2200445zu 450 001 9910831056203321 005 20210807002652.0 010 $a1-118-70427-4 035 $a(CKB)3280000000033771 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000904884 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11943855 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000904884 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10922886 035 $a(PQKB)11312708 035 $a(NjHacI)993280000000033771 035 $a(EXLCZ)993280000000033771 100 $a20160829d2013 uy 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aProfitable Raffles and Auctions: 72 Ways to Boost Your Revenue 210 31$a[Place of publication not identified]$cJossey Bass Imprint$d2013 215 $a1 online resource (46 pages) 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a1-118-69147-4 330 $a"This 46-page manual offers countless ideas and techniques for raising more money from raffles and auctions, profiles of several types of raffles and auctions and procedures for planning, implementing and making the most of your raffles and auctions"--Stevenson, Inc. website. 606 $aBenefit auctions 606 $aRaffles 615 0$aBenefit auctions. 615 0$aRaffles. 676 $a658.15224 700 $aSpeg$01343079 702 $aStevenson$b Scott C 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910831056203321 996 $aProfitable Raffles and Auctions: 72 Ways to Boost Your Revenue$93070699 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04134nam 22006015 450 001 9910483580003321 005 20251113183524.0 010 $a981-13-6516-4 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-13-6516-4 035 $a(CKB)4100000008525856 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-13-6516-4 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5721243 035 $a(PPN)243768311 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000008525856 100 $a20190228d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aBayesian Networks for Reliability Engineering /$fby Baoping Cai, Yonghong Liu, Zengkai Liu, Yuanjiang Chang, Lei Jiang 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aSingapore :$cSpringer Nature Singapore :$cImprint: Springer,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (IX, 257 p. 153 illus., 125 illus. in color.) 311 08$a981-13-6515-6 327 $aBayesian networks for reliability -- Using Bayesian networks in reliability evaluation for subsea blowout preventer control system -- Risk analysis of subsea blowout preventer by mapping GO models into Bayesian networks -- Reliability evaluation of auxiliary feedwater system by mapping GO-FLOW models into Bayesian networks -- Dynamic Bayesian networks based performance evaluation of subsea blowout preventers in presence of imperfect repair -- Performance evaluation of subsea BOP control systems using dynamic Bayesian networks with imperfect repair and preventive maintenance -- Dynamic Bayesian network modelling of reliability of subsea blowout preventer stack in presence of common cause failures -- A framework for the reliability evaluation of grid-connected photovoltaic systems in the presence of intermittent faults -- Real-time reliability evaluation methodology based on dynamic Bayesian networks -- Reliability evaluation methodology of complex systems based on dynamic object-oriented Bayesian networks -- Bayesian network-based risk analysis methodology, a case of atmospheric and vacuum distillation unit -- A multiphase dynamic Bayesian networks methodology for the determination of safety integrity levels -- Availability-based engineering resilience metric and its corresponding evaluation methodology. 330 $a This book presents a bibliographical review of the use of Bayesian networks in reliability over the last decade. Bayesian network (BN) is considered to be one of the most powerful models in probabilistic knowledge representation and inference, and it is increasingly used in the field of reliability. After focusing on the engineering systems, the book subsequently discusses twelve important issues in the BN-based reliability methodologies, such as BN structure modeling, BN parameter modeling, BN inference, validation, and verification. As such, it is a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field of reliability engineering. 606 $aComputational intelligence 606 $aSecurity systems 606 $aElectric power production 606 $aComputer simulation 606 $aComputational Intelligence 606 $aSecurity Science and Technology 606 $aElectrical Power Engineering 606 $aComputer Modelling 615 0$aComputational intelligence. 615 0$aSecurity systems. 615 0$aElectric power production. 615 0$aComputer simulation. 615 14$aComputational Intelligence. 615 24$aSecurity Science and Technology. 615 24$aElectrical Power Engineering. 615 24$aComputer Modelling. 676 $a006.3 700 $aCai$b Baoping$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01224833 702 $aLiu$b Yonghong$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aLiu$b Zengkai$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aChang$b Yuanjiang$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aJiang$b Lei$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483580003321 996 $aBayesian Networks for Reliability Engineering$92843963 997 $aUNINA
