After training in philosophy at Princeton University he embarked on a long and active career as professor, lecturer, and writer. His many books on a wide variety of philosophical topics have established him as one of the most productive and versatile contributors to 20th century philosophical thought, combining historical and analytical investigators to articulate an amalgam of German idealism with American pragmatism. The book accordingly has two dimensions, both as a contribution to German-American cultural interaction and as a contribution to the history of philosophical ideas 606 $aPhilosophers$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aPhilosophers 676 $a192 700 $aRescher$b Nicholas$050144 702 $aRescher$b Nicholas 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788980703321 996 $aAutobiography$93793196 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04728nam 2201177z- 450 001 9910404091603321 005 20210211 010 $a3-03928-013-9 035 $a(CKB)4100000011302222 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/41117 035 $a(oapen)doab41117 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011302222 100 $a20202102d2020 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aApproaches, Advances and Applications in Sustainable Development of Smart Cities 210 $cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2020 215 $a1 online resource (308 p.) 311 08$a3-03928-012-0 330 $aThis book aims to contribute to the conceptual and practical knowledge pools in order to improve the research and practice on the sustainable development of smart cities by bringing an informed understanding of the subject to scholars, policymakers, and practitioners. This book seeks articles offering insights into the sustainable development of smart cities by providing in-depth conceptual analyses and detailed case study descriptions and empirical investigations. This way, the book will form a repository of relevant information, material, and knowledge to support research, policymaking, practice, and transferability of experiences to address aforementioned challenges. The scope of the book includes the following broad areas, with a particular focus on the approaches, advances, and applications in the sustainable development of smart cities: ? Theoretical underpinnings and analytical and policy frameworks; ? Methodological approaches for the evaluation of smart and sustainable cities; ? Technological developments in the techno-enviro nexus; ? Global best practice smart city case investigations and reports; ? Geo-design and applications concerning desired urban outcomes; ? Prospects, implications, and impacts concerning the future of smart and sustainable cities. 610 $aBrazil 610 $aChinese cities 610 $acity branding 610 $aclimate change 610 $aclimate crisis 610 $aclimate emergency 610 $aCO2 networks 610 $acommons 610 $adigital commons 610 $adisasters 610 $adrinking water networks 610 $ae-government 610 $aeconomic cost 610 $aeconomic resilience 610 $aemirates 610 $aenergy autonomy 610 $aenergy budget 610 $aFloriano?polis 610 $agamification 610 $aglobal warming 610 $agovernance 610 $aheat mitigation 610 $ahuman-computer interaction 610 $ain-situ validation 610 $ainnovation hub 610 $aintuitive interaction 610 $aknowledge and innovation economy 610 $aknowledge-based urban development 610 $aland cover ratio 610 $alatecomer's advantage 610 $alinear parameter varying 610 $aliving-lab 610 $alow-carbon resources 610 $amedia fac?ade 610 $amobility 610 $amodel predictive control 610 $amulti-agent systems 610 $amulti-energy networks 610 $anew public service 610 $aoptimal cities 610 $aparametric optimisation 610 $aphotovoltaics 610 $apolicy 610 $aQatar 610 $areliability 610 $arenewable energy systems 610 $arentier state 610 $asensible heat flux 610 $aShenzhen 610 $asmart cities 610 $asmart city 610 $asmart display 610 $asmart governance 610 $asmart infrastructure 610 $asmart placemaking 610 $asmart urban technology 610 $aspatial databases 610 $aspatial typification by heat flux 610 $asustainability 610 $asustainable city 610 $asustainable development goals 610 $asustainable smart city 610 $asustainable urban development 610 $athermal environment improvement 610 $atourist island 610 $aurban branding 610 $aurban health 610 $aurban informatics 610 $aurban policy 610 $auser characteristics 610 $avisioning 700 $aHan$b Hoon$4auth$0980130 702 $aYigitcanlar$b Tan$4auth 702 $aKamruzzaman$b Md.
