Friedman Avi: Fundamentals of Community
Design for Wellbeing

Fundamentals of Community Design for Wellbeing

Fostering Sustainability and Liveability

How can design shine a light on humanity's relationship with the planet, its ecosystems and inhabitants, now and in the future? Global challenges like climate change and ecosystem degradation are proving that a singular disciplinary approach is inadequate to respond to issues where societal behaviours, individual choices, political decisions, economic, technological and scientific developments are so densely entangled - not least in design. But what happens when we turn things around and decentre "the human" to look at our relationship with the planet, its ecosystems and inhabitants beyond the capitalist human-nature binary worldview? Design Beyond the Human is a collection of essays by international scholars, designers and engaged citizens traversing activism, anthropology, conservation, creative writing, design practice, design theory, economics, education, environmental humanities, ethics, history, indigenous knowledge, law, philosophy, poetry, politics, regenerative agriculture, science, sociology and technology. Divided into three sections - We Are Not Alone, Design Beyond the Human, and Mediating Human-Non-Human Relations Through Design - the text generates conversations capable of thinking about life on planet Earth, challenging the Anglo-European anthropocentric conceptualisation of design that dominates practice, education, and academic discourse. Each section is unique: charting the transdisciplinary cultural perspective that is required to comprehend our predicament, the critique of human-centred design and its interdependence with capitalism, and the nascent practices and projects that are attempting to reconcile humanity's possible relationship with the planet, its ecosystems and inhabitants. The book offers the reader an opportunity to engage with expertise, knowledge, methodologies and lived experiences from across disciplines shaped by shared concerns and provides an opportunity to question if design in a more-than-human way might reimagine design's relationship to capitalism and contemporary lifestyles. Will our planetary future be merely an ecologically aware version of today, or, in going beyond the human, might we develop a transdisciplinary perspective capable of imagining an alternative vision of life on Earth?

Walking a City's History

Using a consistent structure throughout, Resilient Smart Cities examines smart cities in a broad sense, looking at people, governance, economic, mobility, environment, and infrastructure dimensions. It identifies the likely weaknesses of those cities and threats faced, proposing a modeling platform to help enhance resilience of smart cities, offering state-of-the-research and deep literature review. Resilient Smart Cities shows the role smart cities play in achieving sustainability goals through the lens of urban resilience and concludes that smart cities are required to be cities of hope where well-being of the humankind is the center.

Build the microchips of the future with this revolutionary new information transfer technology Advancements in high-performance computing have continually demanded for progresses in disruptive technological research and innovations. Moore's Law has pushed the Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technology to pack MOS devices inside a chip at an exponential rate, thereby surpassing now eight billion transistors per cm2. This has concomitantly fueled the growth of multilayered on-chip interconnects comprising metallic and low dielectric materials. VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics introduces a new method for improving chip performance by harnessing the power of information transfer among chips at terahertz frequency. This revolutionary new electromagnetic wave engineering, called a spoof surface plasmon polariton, adapts the principles of VLSI and terahertz interconnect technology along with the artificial plasmonics to transfer huge quantities of data at vastly improved speeds. It constitutes a potentially decisive contribution to the pursuit of faster and more capacious VLSI chips. In VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics, readers will also find: <ul> <li>A cutting-edge new approach supported by pioneering research</li> <li>Detailed discussion of essential components related to the development of THz interconnect technology, including theory, modeling, simulation, and validation</li> <li>Roadmap to future technological development in the branch of artificial plasmonics</li> </ul> VLSI Interconnect Technology with Artificial Plasmonics is ideal for engineers, researchers, and scientists working in electronics, electromagnetics, and optics.
