Internet of Things and Analytics for Agriculture, Volume 2 (Studies in Big Data #67)
by Prasant Kumar Pattnaik Raghvendra Kumar Souvik PalThis book addresses major challenges faced by farmers and the technological solutions based on Internet of Things (IoT). A major challenge in agriculture is cultivating and supplying high-quality produce at the best. Currently, around 50% of global farm produce never reaches the end consumer due to wastage and suboptimal prices. The book presents solutions that reduce the transport costs, improve the predictability of prices based on data analytics and the current market conditions, and reduce the number of middle steps and agents between the farmer and the end consumer. It discusses the design of an IoT-based monitoring system to analyze crop environments and a method to improve the efficiency of decision-making by analyzing harvest statistics. Further, it explores climate-smart methods, known as smart agriculture, that have been adopted by a number of Indian farmers.
Internet of Things and Analytics for Agriculture, Volume 3 (Studies in Big Data #99)
by Prasant Kumar Pattnaik Raghvendra Kumar Souvik PalThe book discusses one of the major challenges in agriculture which is delivery of cultivate produce to the end consumers with best possible price and quality. Currently all over the world, it is found that around 50% of the farm produce never reaches the end consumer due to wastage and suboptimal prices. The authors present solutions to reduce the transport cost, predictability of prices on the past data analytics and the current market conditions, and number of middle hops and agents between the farmer and the end consumer using IoT-based solutions. Again, the demand by consumption of agricultural products could be predicted quantitatively; however, the variation of harvest and production by the change of farm's cultivated area, weather change, disease and insect damage, etc., could be difficult to be predicted, so that the supply and demand of agricultural products has not been controlled properly. To overcome, this edited book designed the IoT-based monitoring system to analyze crop environment and the method to improve the efficiency of decision making by analyzing harvest statistics. The book is also useful for academicians working in the areas of climate changes.

Internetwirtschaft
by Rüdiger Zarnekow Falk Von Bornstaedt Jochen WulfWährend der Aufbau und Betrieb von Internetinfrastrukturen zur Zeit der Entstehung des Internets in erster Linie von öffentlichen Institutionen vorangetrieben wurde, wird dieser Bereich heute längst von privatwirtschaftlichen Unternehmen beherrscht. Dieses Buch beschreibt Dienste, Wertschöpfungsprozesse und Wettbewerbsstrategien zur Erbringung des Datentransports im Internet aus betriebswirtschaftlicher Sicht. Es werden gleichermaßen Internetzugangsdienste zur Anbindung von Endkunden, Transitdienste zum Datenaustausch zwischen Netzbetreibern, Dienste zur Kapazitätsbereitstellung im Kernnetz und Dienste zur Distribution digitaler Inhalte und Anwendungen diskutiert. Durch die Darstellung der Teilmärkte, die den Datentransport im Internet adressieren, wird dem Leser ein umfassender Einblick in die Internetwirtschaft geboten, ohne dass hierzu ein tiefer gehendes technisches Verständnis vorausgesetzt wird. Darüber hinaus werden strategische Herausforderungen bei der Bereitstellung digitaler Inhalte und Anwendungen vorgestellt, die zukünftige Entwicklungen in der Internetwirtschaft maßgeblich beeinflussen.
Interngerichtetes Issues Management: Eine theoretische und empirische Analyse von konflikt- und chancenhaltigen Themen in der internen Unternehmenskommunikation
by Frederic VuillerminKontroversen, Änderungsvorschläge, Verbesserungsinitiativen oder Gerüchte – wie gehen Unternehmen mit diesen und weiteren konflikt- oder chancenhaltigen Themen in ihrer internen Kommunikation um? Was tun, wenn gerade diese Issues von Mitarbeitenden und Führungskräften initiiert werden: Themen aufgreifen oder erstmal schweigen und beobachten? In der Arbeit werden sogenannte "interne Issues" definiert und Ansätze diskutiert, wie diese an der Schnittstelle zu den Forschungs- und Praxisfeldern der Unternehmenskommunikation "Interne Kommunikation" und "Issues Management" analysiert, identifiziert und gesteuert werden können. Ein zentraler Beitrag der Arbeit ist zudem ein Handlungsmodell "Interngerichtetes Issues Management", was sowohl die theoretischen Erkenntnisse als auch die Ergebnisse einer qualitativen Studie mit Top-Kommunikationsverantwortlichen aus Unternehmen zusammenfasst.

Interop: The Promise and Perils of Highly Interconnected Systems
by John Palfrey Urs GasserIn Interop, technology experts John Palfrey and Urs Gasser explore the immense importance of interoperability-the standardization and integration of technology-and show how this simple principle will hold the key to our success in the coming decades and beyond. The practice of standardization has been facilitating innovation and economic growth for centuries. The standardization of the railroad gauge revolutionized the flow of commodities, the standardization of money revolutionized debt markets and simplified trade, and the standardization of credit networks has allowed for the purchase of goods using money deposited in a bank half a world away. These advancements did not eradicate the different systems they affected; instead, each system has been transformed so that it can interoperate with systems all over the world, while still preserving local diversity. As Palfrey and Gasser show, interoperability is a critical aspect of any successful system-and now it is more important than ever. Today we are confronted with challenges that affect us on a global scale: the financial crisis, the quest for sustainable energy, and the need to reform health care systems and improve global disaster response systems. The successful flow of information across systems is crucial if we are to solve these problems, but we must also learn to manage the vast degree of interconnection inherent in each system involved. Interoperability offers a number of solutions to these global challenges, but Palfrey and Gasser also consider its potential negative effects, especially with respect to privacy, security, and co-dependence of states; indeed, interoperability has already sparked debates about document data formats, digital music, and how to create successful yet safe cloud computing. Interop demonstrates that, in order to get the most out of interoperability while minimizing its risks, we will need to fundamentally revisit our understanding of how it works, and how it can allow for improvements in each of its constituent parts. In Interop, Palfrey and Gasser argue that there needs to be a nuanced, stable theory of interoperability-one that still generates efficiencies, but which also ensures a sustainable mode of interconnection. Pointing the way forward for the new information economy, Interop provides valuable insights into how technological integration and innovation can flourish in the twenty-first century.
