NUnit Pocket Reference: Up and Running with NUnit
by Bill HamiltonFew .NET developers have the luxury of unlimited code testing once their application is complete, and rushing through the testing process is both problematic and stressful. The open source NUnit framework provides an excellent and efficient way to test and improve .NET code as it's written, saving hundreds of QA hours and headaches.NUnit is one of the most mature and widely-used .NET open source projects even Microsoft uses it internally. NUnit is a unit-testing framework for all .Net languages. Written entirely in C#, NUnit takes advantage of many .NET language features, such as custom attributes and other reflection related capabilities. It automates unit testing and reduces the effort required to frequently test code while developing it. NUint is invaluable for .NET developers in test-driven development under agile methodologies such as Extreme Programming (XP) as well as for developers who use for unit testing for software quality assurance. Unfortunately, some of those valuable hours saved by using NUnit can be wasted trying to master this powerful but under-documented frameworkProof that good things come in small packages, the NUnit Pocket Reference is a complete reference to NUnit, filling in the blanks left by the existing documentation and online discussion. It offers developers everything they need to know to install, configure, and use NUnit; the NUnit user interface; and a reference to the NUnit framework classes in a slim but well-organized package. This handy little book even offers practical, real world NUnit examples. And with the NUnit Pocket Reference, IT managers will know to expect when they implement unit testing in their projects. It is the only book you'll need on this popular and practical new open source framework.

Nachhaltige Künstliche Intelligenz: Eine Zukunftsvision und ihre Hintergründe (SDG - Forschung, Konzepte, Lösungsansätze zur Nachhaltigkeit)
by Andreas Moring Hendrik Müller Daniel Sonnet Joseph BethgeDie aus KI entstehenden Möglichkeiten sind immens. Speziell das maschinelle Lernen ist für viele deutsche Unternehmen mittlerweile kein Fremdwort mehr. In durchweg allen Branchen werden die Einsatzmöglichkeiten von trainierten Modellen evaluiert, die neue Geschäftsfelder entstehen lassen oder bestehende Abläufe optimieren. In der Euphorie werden von vielen Akteurinnen und Akteuren Nachhaltigkeitsaspekte vernachlässigt. Zum Beispiel kann das Training von KI-Algorithmen und der Betrieb der Systeme durchaus ressourcenintensiv sein kann. Die derzeitige Entwicklung zielt darauf ab, bestehende Modelle noch akkurater bzw. performanter zu machen. Dabei müssen Performance und Nachhaltigkeit von KI-Systemen kein Widerspruch sein. Dieses Buch verfolgt das Anliegen, die Chancen nachhaltiger KI-Ansätze darzustellen. Es wird detailliert auf Nachhaltigkeit in der IT, Nachhaltigkeit durch KI sowie auf Digitale Ethik eingegangen. Nicht alle 17 UN-Agenda 2030 Ziele werden behandelt, der Fokus liegt auf der ökologischen Nachhaltigkeit. Das Buch ist kein Theoriewerk. Es beinhaltet diverse konkrete Empfehlungen für zur direkten Anwendung für nachhaltigere KI-Projekte.

Nachhaltigkeit und Social Media: Bildung für eine nachhaltige Entwicklung in der digitalen Welt
by Annika Bush Jonas BirkeDas Konzept der Nachhaltigkeit erfährt in den letzten Jahren zunehmend Aufmerksamkeit in allen Lebensbereichen. Ob es um Stories zum Klimaschutz auf Instagram, Erklärvideos zur Kreislaufwirtschaft auf YouTube oder Tweets zur Armutsbekämpfung auf Twitter geht - längst hat das Thema auch Einzug in die aufmerksamkeitsstarke Welt von Social Media gefunden. Diese bieten bisher nie dagewesene Möglichkeiten der digitalen Vernetzung und des informellen Lernens. Dadurch rücken sie Nachhaltigkeit verstärkt aus der wissenschaftlichen Nische in den öffentlichen Diskurs.Dieser Sammelband verbindet die bisher zumeist getrennt gedachten Bereiche Nachhaltigkeit und Social Media. Welche nachhaltigen Themen dominieren in den sozialen Netzwerken? Wie werden diese in Facebook rezipiert und auf YouTube diskutiert? Welchen Einfluss hat die Darstellung von ressourcenschonendem Verhalten bei Instagram auf den privaten Alltag? Diesen und weiteren spannenden Fragen wird in diesem Kompendium auf den Grund gegangen. Zwölf innovative Beiträge aus unterschiedlichen Fachdisziplinen untersuchen verschiedene Social Media hinsichtlich der Darstellung und Kommunikation von Nachhaltigkeitsthemen und zeigen, welche Chancen, aber auch welche Herausforderungen sich durch die Verbindung beider Themenkomplexe ergeben. Damit wird ein Beitrag zum wissenschaftlichen und gesellschaftlichen Diskurs beider Bereiche geleistet und die Nachhaltigkeitsforschung im digitalen Raum gestärkt.

Naked Conversations: How Blogs Are Changing the Way Businesses Talk with Customers
by Robert Scoble Shel IsraelScoble and coauthor Israel argue that every business can benefit from smart "naked" blogging, whether the company's a small town plumbing operation or a multinational fashion house. "If you ignore the blogosphere... you won't know what people are saying about you," they write. "You can't learn from them, and they won't come to see you as a sincere human who cares about your business and its reputation." To bolster their argument, Scoble and Israel have assembled an enormous amount of information about blogging: from history and theory to comparisons among countries and industries. They also lay out the dos and don'ts of the medium and include extensive statistics, dozens of case studies and several interviews with famous bloggers.

by Narendra Kumar Gajendra Singh Vishwakarma Alok Pandya Zinia MohantaInvest in Nano-Bioremediation for Wastewater Treatment to explore cutting-edge techniques that combine nanotechnology and bioremediation, equipping you with innovative solutions and expert insights needed to tackle global environmental pollution challenges effectively. The coupling of nanotechnology and bioremediation techniques holds great promise for addressing environmental pollution and contamination on a global scale. The process of bioremediation uses living organisms, such as bacteria, fungi, or plants, to degrade or detoxify pollutants in the environment. Nanotechnology involves manipulating materials at the nanoscale, typically at the scale of individual atoms and molecules, to create novel properties and functionalities. Today, research is focused on exploring the combined potential of nanomaterials and bioremediation for treating pollutants. Nano-Bioremediation for Wastewater Treatment will serve as a premier guide for nanotechnology in this field, providing information regarding the various challenges that arise from the coupling of nanotechnology and bioremediation techniques. Since very limited literature is available on this subject, the editors have compiled all the current assays and techniques that provide insights into this topic. This book will also cover different fabrication methods and methods for decorating microbial cells on the surface of nanomaterials, which is a key factor for synthesizing microbial conjugation, as well as prototype designing and integrating developed materials into water purification systems. Unlock the potential of cutting-edge nano-bioremediation techniques for wastewater treatment, with practical applications, expert insights, and sustainable solutions that set you apart in the field. Audience Environmental engineers, chemists, biotechnologists, microbiologists, nanotechnologists, environmental consultants, researchers, academics, and policymakers focused on developing and implementing innovative solutions for wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.
Nano-Electronic Devices
by Stephen M. Goodnick Dragica VasileskaThis book surveys the advanced simulation methods needed for proper modeling of state-of-the-art nanoscale devices. It systematically describes theoretical approaches and the numerical solutions that are used in explaining the operation of both power devices as well as nano-scale devices. It clearly explains for what types of devices a particular method is suitable, which is the most critical point that a researcher faces and has to decide upon when modeling semiconductor devices.
