Metaverse: The fusion of reality and virtuality in the Next Generation Internet
by Peter HoffmannThe development of the Internet, particularly the World Wide Web, is currently reaching its limits – both technically and in socio-cultural and economic terms. As a solution, a new form of the Internet is being promised: one that aims to overcome the boundaries between the real and virtual worlds and merge reality with digitality – the metaverse. Technical, semantic, and organizational aspects are closely intertwined in this vision. But what does this mean upon closer examination? What technological and engineering challenges must be overcome to enable such a fusion? What economic opportunities arise – and which ones might be off-limits? How can we ensure the creation of an open and universally accessible metaverse? And how can we prevent a scenario in which a few large providers impose their proprietary visions on this new space? This book aims to provide answers to these questions. In the current edition, recent trends and the role of artificial intelligence in the metaverse have also been added.

Metaverso y Cripto para principiantes
by Adidas WilsonAparentemente los blockchain se harán cargo de la mayoría de los aspectos que rigen el mundo de las finanzas, y probablemente se convertirán en un hito para avanzar en las instituciones financieras y otros aspectos de la industria. Lo primero y más importante sobre el blockchain son sus características técnicas, que permiten transacciones entre personas anónimas, a la vez que hace que el sistema sea seguro para todos. Mejor aún, como el sistema no está sujeto a regulaciones por parte de bancos o gobiernos, ofrece una influencia sin precedentes para los usuarios por sobre la mayoría de los demás servicios financieros. El término metaverso fue usado por primera vez en una novela de ciencia ficción de 1992 llamada Snow Crash. Retrataba a los humanos como avatares que interactuaban entre sí y con agentes de software, que la cadena HBO está buscando producir en formato serie de televisión. En una explicación más detallada, el metaverso combina tecnologías que incluyen realidad virtual, que consiste en una comunidad en línea en la cual los usuarios interactúan entre sí en un mundo simulado de realidad aumentada que combina tanto el mundo físico como el digital.
Metaversum: Die Verschmelzung von Realität und Virtualität im Next Generation Internet
by Peter HoffmannDie Entwicklung des Internets, insbesondere des WWW, stößt aktuell an ihre Grenzen – sowohl technisch als auch sozio-kulturell und ökonomisch. Als Lösung wird ein neues Internet versprochen, das die Grenzen der realen und der virtuellen Welt überwinden und Realität und Digitalität verschmelzen soll – das Metaversum. Technische, semantische und organisatorische Details greifen hierzu eng ineinander. Was aber bedeutet dies bei genauerer Betrachtung? Welche technisch-technologischen Herausforderungen müssen bewältigt werden, um ein solches Verschmelzen zu erreichen? Welche ökonomischen Möglichkeiten eröffnen sich– und welche verbieten sich möglicherweise? Wie kann erreicht werden, dass ein offenes und für jeden benutzbares Metaversum entsteht? Und wie kann vermieden werden, dass auch in diesem neuen Metaversum wenige große Anbieter ihre proprietären Ideen durchsetzen? Für diese Fragen soll dieses Buch Antworten aufzeigen. In der vorliegenden Auflage wurden zudem aktuelle Trends sowie der Beitrag der künstlichen Intelligenz zum Metaversum ergänzt.

Method of Moments for 2D Scattering Problems: Basic Concepts and Applications
by Nicolas Pinel Christophe Bourlier Gildas KubickéElectromagnetic wave scattering from randomly rough surfaces in the presence of scatterers is an active, interdisciplinary area of research with myriad practical applications in fields such as optics, acoustics, geoscience and remote sensing. In this book, the Method of Moments (MoM) is applied to compute the field scattered by scatterers such as canonical objects (cylinder or plate) or a randomly rough surface, and also by an object above or below a random rough surface. Since the problem is considered to be 2D, the integral equations (IEs) are scalar and only the TE (transverse electric) and TM (transverse magnetic) polarizations are addressed (no cross-polarizations occur). In Chapter 1, the MoM is applied to convert the IEs into a linear system, while Chapter 2 compares the MoM with the exact solution of the field scattered by a cylinder in free space, and with the Physical Optics (PO) approximation for the scattering from a plate in free space. Chapter 3 presents numerical results, obtained from the MoM, of the coherent and incoherent intensities scattered by a random rough surface and an object below a random rough surface. The final chapter presents the same results as in Chapter 3, but for an object above a random rough surface. In these last two chapters, the coupling between the two scatterers is also studied in detail by inverting the impedance matrix by blocks. Contents 1. Integral Equations for a Single Scatterer: Method of Moments and Rough Surfaces. 2. Validation of the Method of Moments for a Single Scatterer. 3. Scattering from Two Illuminated Scatterers. 4. Scattering from Two Scatterers Where Only One is Illuminated. Appendix. Matlab Codes. About the Authors Christophe Bourlier works at the IETR (Institut d’Electronique et de Télécommunications de Rennes) laboratory at Polytech Nantes (University of Nantes, France) as well as being a Researcher at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) on electromagnetic wave scattering from rough surfaces and objects for remote sensing applications and radar signatures. He is the author of more than 160 journal articles and conference papers. Nicolas Pinel is currently working as a Research Engineer at the IETR laboratory at Polytech Nantes and is about to join Alyotech Technologies in Rennes, France. His research interests are in the areas of radar and optical remote sensing, scattering and propagation. In particular, he works on asymptotic methods of electromagnetic wave scattering from random rough surfaces and layers. Gildas Kubické is in charge of the “Expertise in electroMagnetism and Computation” (EMC) laboratory at the DGA (Direction Générale de l’Armement), French Ministry of Defense, where he works in the field of radar signatures and electromagnetic stealth.

Methoden des bestärkenden Lernens für die Produktionsablaufplanung
by Sebastian LangIn diesem Open-Access-Buch wird eine Methode zur Adaption, Integration und Anwendung von bestärkenden Lernverfahren (Reinforcement Learning) für die Produktionsablaufplanung beschrieben. Die Methode wird anhand von typischen Problemstellungen der Produktionsablaufplanung hergeleitet und evaluiert. Die Produktionsablaufplanung ist eine Kernaufgabe der Produktion und Logistik, bei welcher Aufträge auf Ressourcen so verteilt und in Reihenfolge gebracht werden müssen, dass geforderte Nebenbedingungen der Planung erfüllt werden. Entsprechende Optimierungsprobleme sind meist NP-schwer, wodurch eine optimale Lösung gewöhnlich nicht unter wirtschaftlichen Bedingungen erzielbar ist. In der Industrie werden stattdessen Prioritätsregeln, Heuristiken oder Metaheuristiken verwendet, die entweder zeiteffizient zu Lasten der Lösungsgüte rechnen oder qualitativ hochwertige Lösungen unter hohem Rechenaufwand erzeugen. Das bestärkende Lernen ist eine Unterart des maschinellen Lernens und eine weitere Klasse potenzieller Lösungsstrategien. Probleme der Produktionsablaufplanung sind insoweit vergleichbar, als dass sie sich ebenfalls als stufenartige Entscheidungsketten modellieren lassen. Trotz ihrer Vorteile existiert bisher kaum allgemeines Wissen hinsichtlich der Anwendung des bestärkenden Lernens für die Produktionsablaufplanung.
