Digital Economies at Global Margins (International Development Research Centre)
by Mark GrahamInvestigations of what increasing digital connectivity and the digitalization of the economy mean for people and places at the world's economic margins.Within the last decade, more than one billion people became new Internet users. Once, digital connectivity was confined to economically prosperous parts of the world; now Internet users make up a majority of the world's population. In this book, contributors from a range of disciplines and locations investigate the impact of increased digital connectivity on people and places at the world's economic margins. Does the advent of a digitalized economy mean that those in economic peripheries can transcend spatial, organizational, social, and political constraints—or do digital tools and techniques tend to reinforce existing inequalities?The contributors present a diverse set of case studies, reporting on digitalization in countries ranging from Chile to Kenya to the Philippines, and develop a broad range of theoretical positions. They consider, among other things, data-driven disintermediation, women's economic empowerment and gendered power relations, digital humanitarianism and philanthropic capitalism, the spread of innovation hubs, and two cases of the reversal of core and periphery in digital innovation.ContributorsNiels Beerepoot, Ryan Burns, Jenna Burrell, Julie Yujie Chen, Peter Dannenberg, Uwe Deichmann, Jonathan Donner, Christopher Foster, Mark Graham, Nicolas Friederici, Hernan Galperin, Catrihel Greppi, Anita Gurumurthy, Isis Hjorth, Lilly Irani, Molly Jackman, Calestous Juma, Dorothea Kleine, Madlen Krone, Vili Lehdonvirta, Chris Locke, Silvia Masiero, Hannah McCarrick,Deepak K.

Digital Electronics (Synthesis Lectures on Electrical Engineering)
by Gareth MonkmanThis book introduces the basic digital components and devices, often with respect to historical events which led to these concepts, before combining them to make complete digital systems. The historical aspect is important in than many older devices were purely mechanical. This helps in understanding the basic concepts before embarking on analysis and application of modern semiconductor devices. The book covers all aspects of digital technology needed by first/second year university students. Basic devices and their combination from simple circuits to complete ALUs. Sequential concatenation of devices leads to counters, timers, registers and memory. Parallel to these subject, all mathematical aspects of Boolean algebra are covered. The book culminates in a fusion of the three main subjects resulting in the design of a basic CPU and the implementation of assembly language code. Throughout the book, reference is made to original historical devices and designs which have led (or in many cases, not) to the development of modern digital and computing systems.
