Human Factors and Aging Series

This book translates research on aging, human factors, and human-robot interaction into guidance that will be usable for practitioners who design robots for a range of applications. It offers a framework for human-robot interaction (HRI) with a focus on personal characteristics, robot functionality, task demands, and interaction context.

Designing Training and Instructional Programs for Older Adults

Designing Technology Training for Older Adults in Continuing Care Retirement Communities

A Human Factors Perspective

Designing Telehealth for an Aging Population

This book shows how to design and implement a technology training program for older adults in continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs). It concentrates on providing best practices for CCRC owners, CEOs, and activity directors, as well as practitioners and system designers working with older adults to enhance their quality of life. Educators studying older adults also will find this book useful. Additionally, the book has broader-based implications for training older adults on how to use computers, tablets, and other technologies.

Covering theoretical and practical aspects, this book provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-science review of aging, learning, skill acquisition, and training. The text encompasses a broad range of issues relevant to current and future older populations, ranging from theories of learning in adulthood to practical guidelines for training and instructional design. It also addresses issues such as e-learning, multimedia training formats, training and telework, and recent findings regarding cognitive plasticity and cognitive training. The authors present case study examples from a variety of domains, including healthcare, and include discussions of motivation as well as age discrimination.

Providing up-to-date, practical advice on how to design, select, and structure telemedicine interventions with older adults, this book discusses the age-related changes that can affect the efficacy of these systems. It defines best practices and general guidelines for telemedicine use with older populations of both patients and health care practitioners. Ideal for anyone interested in designing, delivering or evaluating telehealth interventions for older adults, this book gives the necessary background on aging and human factors issues as well as the specific keys needed to implement a successful program.

Quantum Computing and Machine Learning for 6G

This book is the third in a three-volume set covering all aspects of adaptive thermal comfort. It provides a simple, step by step method for designing comfortable low energy buildings in any climate. Building on the academic principles, practices and fundamental research described in the first two volumes this book is written for building designers, owners, occupants, planners, architectural engineers, self-builders, renovators and educated laymen. It has been written to demystify the art and science of the performance and impacts of buildings and to explain how to, in practice, achieve adaptable, well-behaved and well-liked buildings.

How to Design Comfortable Buildings

Adaptive Thermal Comfort

Depending on who you ask, artificial intelligence is our salvation or our doom; an overhyped, bigoted artist or the ticket to immortality and utopian abundance; just another tech fad or the last invention we need ever make. The AI discourse is confusing, messy, and frustrating. But the technology — and our response to it — will shape the future, whether or not we’re part of the conversation.
Obsolete is&nbsp;for those who are interested in learning more about AI, but unsure of where to start and who to believe. They may feel intimidated by the technical jargon, put off by dry and abstract prose, or skeptical of the loudest voices on the issue (like Elon Musk and Sam Altman). Obsolete will introduce readers to the basics of AI, the idea that it could lead to human extinction, the roiling three-sided debate surrounding extinction fears, and the people and companies trying to build artificial general intelligence (AGI) — that which can outwit humans across the board. The book will grapple with the core arguments animating the AI debates, which are, by turns, uncritically parroted and unduly dismissed. It will also cut through industry hype while seriously entertaining the implications of AGI.
The risk that AGI could result in our extinction is being recognized by a significant and growing number of leading AI researchers, industrialists, and policymakers, along with the wider public. Existential risk from AI has been explored in other books, but Obsolete will be the first to center its analysis on how both capitalist and great power competition make AI more dangerous.
Obsolete will also tackle questions like: Can machines actually outsmart humanity? If so, when could that happen? If AGI is possible, is it inevitable? Why are people trying to build a technology they claim could end the world? Is the idea of AI-driven extinction the product of a big tech conspiracy aiming to hype the technology and control its regulation? Why has the left mostly ignored or dismissed existential risk from AI? Why do some powerful techies welcome human extinction? How could AI enable stable authoritarian regimes? How could killer robots reshape war and the balance of power? What do China and the US want from AI? And why has it become the front line of their brewing Cold War? And finally: What can and should the left do about it?

Woodhead Publishing Series in Civil and Structural Engineering

Design of Ocean Structures: From Oil and Gas to Blue Economy offers specialized knowledge that serves to develop efficient, safe, and longlasting infrastructure systems for the transition to sustainable utilization of resources from the world’s oceans. The book's authors draw from their academic and industry experience to provide the most up-to-date, technical advances applied to the design, construction, and operation of farm-scale, bottom-fixed, or floating installations whose purposes include production of renewable energy, extraction of minerals, and open water aquaculture. Effective engineering methodologies accompany discussions of recent, interesting projects, challenges encountered, and other practical lessons learned through coherent case study examples. The book’s easy-to-follow organization concludes with a look at the effects of climate change on the ocean environment and future implications that may further affect design criteria and guidelines. This valuable reference volume is intended for audiences from a variety of engineering spheres who already have foundational understanding of structural design theory and practice and are hoping to transfer and adapt their underlying analytical skills to emerging blue economy sectors.

We cannot manage and control what we cannot measure and assess. Lack of approppriate assessmen tools and measures have been cited as a major reason for project failures, in terms of cost, schedule, and quality. This book launches the methodology for assessing innovation using relevant and sustainable metrics, rubrics, and standards.

Algorithms have become the key organizer through which power is enacted in our society. A huge amount of data regarding our daily routines are monitored and analyzed to make recommendations that manage, control, and lead our behaviors in everyday life. AI, Humans, and Misinformation: How Does AI Alter Human Behavior and How Do Humans Influence Algorithmic Misinformation? is a guide to understanding the dynamics of AI and misinformation in human contexts by addressing meaningful questions-How does AI alter human behavior and how do humans influence algorithmic decision-making? In answering these questions, this book examines the role of misinformation, disinformation, and fake news, and shows readers how to develop AI methods and algorithms that combat misinformation by using AI design choices that provide users and developers alike with meaningful control over AI. This book brings together various perspectives on algorithms into an integrated conceptual framework, and provides a broad socio-technical analysis, addressing critical and ethical issues of misinformation and fake news. The book offers a compelling insight into the misinformation phenomenon and the future of AI-based society. Readers will find an integrated technical analysis of the logic and social implications of algorithmic processes. Reporting from the cutting edge of critical technical methods and research, the result is useful and constructive for developing the relations between algorithms and humans. This is an imperative methodology for understanding what is at stake as industry and government use AI to reshape the world.
