Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental Geosolutions, Inc. of Exeter (Ontario) was contracted by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada (Contract #A7133-06-0015) to summarize, digitize and update selected, currently available granular resource information in the vicinity of the Mackenzie Gas Project within the Northwest Territories. Output from this project will be used to enhance the utility of the existing Mackenzie Valley and ISR on-line mapping tools. The Departmental Representative responsible for this contract is Robert J. Gowan. This report describes the tasks performed to execute the contract, the resultant GIS and image files, and recommendation for the future. Much work has already been done to develop products to distribute information on granular resources in Canada's north. The Northern Granular Resources Bibliographic Database (http://www.aina.ucalgary.ca/ngr/) contains citations and abstracts to over 1600 reports on granular resources in Canada's three northern territories and adjacent waters. This database has helped to provide a central point to search for granular information and provides many documents in downloadable formats. In addition to the database, two on-line mapping tools have been developed for the Mackenzie Valley (MV) and Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR; URLs withheld at request of INAC). These mapping products are the next logical step towards providing a usable and applied tool for stakeholders to obtain information about the granular resource information that exists for a certain area. There is already a significant amount of information, in digital form, on the known granular deposits in certain portions of the region, yet much of this was compiled from sources of uncertain accuracy. More recent access to detailed imagery and more accurate GPS now permits better representation of existing resources. There is a large amount of interest, as was made evident at a recent workshop in Yellowknife, in providing even more detailed granular resource information to stakeholders through the on-line mapping tools. These tools can be an important component of the decision-making that deals with proposed and alternative locations of MGP facilities, and provide the spatial framework to contribute to a better understanding of the impact of the granular requirements of the MGP. The various groups involved with and affected by granular management planning are widely dispersed, resulting in travel and meetings that are expensive and difficult to arrange. Online tools provide an environment for data dissemination and dispersal and will be a critical component in the development of granular resource allocation plans which must involve an iterative process of recommendation and response. ... The contract document outlines the scope of work for this project as follows: 1. Identify and obtain, through the Departmental Representative and consultants designated by the Departmental Representative, library and Internet searches, pertinent reports and other background information on the MGP, and the location, extent and type of granular resources in the vicinity of the MGP. 2. Review existing digital information and systems pertinent to evaluation of the granular requirements of the MGP and other existing resources, identify key areas where information and/or resources are particularly abundant or deficient, and make recommendations to the Departmental Representative on the use, expansion or modification of these systems and information to evaluate the impact of the MGP on granular resources in the study area. 3. Compile, process and summarize selected additional granular resource information, based on quality of existing information and priority of importance to this study, as determined in consultation with the Departmental Representative. 4. Prepare, update and modify information on the location, extent and type of granular resources in the vicinity of the MGP, including georeferencing of existing airphoto and map-based site plans, digitizin g deposit boundaries, subsurface investigations (boreholes, test pits), test samples, etc. 5. Document source, compilation methods, etc. for all above data using metadata consistent with current industry standards. 6. Prepare digital archives including spatial information, descriptive attributes and scanned images for granular resources sites processed as part of this study. 7. Document, in tables, maps and a report, the work undertaken and results obtained through this project -- ASTIS (online) database.

This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The availability of granular resources for industrial, commercial and public infrastructure use is an on-going concern in the Northwest Territories (NWT). Sizeable deposits of granular material suitable for construction use may be scarce in many parts of the NWT. Those deposits that do exist need to be identified and properly managed to ensure the needs of future developments can be met. This is especially true for areas in which large-scale infrastructure projects such as the Mackenzie Gas Project (MGP) are proposed. It is important that those assessing applications for the MGP have ready access to all available information about the granular resources in the vicinity of the MGP throughout the NWT. One such source of information is the Northern Granular Resources Bibliographic Database (http://www.aina.ucalgarv.ca/ngr/), which contains over 1,600 reports on granular resources in the Northwest Territories, the Yukon, and Nunavut. Among these many reports are several granular resource studies carried out by J.D. Mollard and Associates Limited (JDMA) over a span of nearly 40 years. ... JDMA recommended that INAC consider the option of capturing the granular deposit information contained in the PDF reports as geospatial objects in a geographic information system (GIS). In this way, the deposit information from multiple reports could be compiled into a single granular resources data repository that could be accessed and updated online as needed by INAC personnel. As it turned out, INAC had already considered just such an option and had carried out preliminary work establishing both standards for capture of such digital data and integration of digital granular information into a web-based map server for use by INAC personnel. In January 2008 INAC contracted JDMA to capture and deliver granular prospect information from five (5) of the JDMA studies previously delivered to INAC in PDF format as part of the October 2007 report. This report details the results of this datacapture and delivery, carried out in 2008" -- ASTIS [online] database.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Granular Computing (GC) - an emerging conceptual and of information processing. As the name suggests, GC concerns computing paradigm processing of complex information entities - information granules. In essence, information granules arise in the process of abstraction of data and derivation of knowledge from information. Information granules are everywhere. We commonly use granules of time (seconds, months, years). We granulate images; millions of pixels manipulated individually by computers appear to us as granules representing physical objects. In natural language, we operate on the basis of word-granules that become crucial entities used to realize interaction and communication between humans. Intuitively, we sense that information granules are at the heart of all our perceptual activities. In the past, several formal frameworks and tools, geared for processing specific information granules, have been proposed. Interval analysis, rough sets, fuzzy sets have all played important role in knowledge representation and processing. Subsequently, information granulation and information granules arose in numerous application domains. Well-known ideas of rule-based systems dwell inherently on information granules. Qualitative modeling, being one of the leading threads of AI, operates on a level of information granules. Multi-tier architectures and hierarchical systems (such as those encountered in control engineering), planning and scheduling systems all exploit information granularity. We also utilize information granules when it comes to functionality granulation, reusability of information and efficient ways of developing underlying information infrastructures.

Book excerpt: Aerobic Granular Sludge has recently received growing attention by researchers and technology developers, worldwide. Laboratory studies and preliminary field tests led to the conclusion that granular activated sludge can be readily established and profitably used in activated sludge plants, provided 'correct' process conditions are chosen. But what makes process conditions 'correct'? And what makes granules different from activated sludge flocs? Answers to these question are offered in Aerobic Granular Sludge. Major topics covered in this book include: Reasons and mechanism of aerobic granule formation Structure of the microbial population of aerobic granules Role, composition and physical properties of EPS Diffuse limitation and microbial activity within granules Physio-chemical characteristics Operation and application of granule reactors Scale-up aspects of granular sludge reactors, and case studies Aerobic Granular Sludge provides up-to-date information about a rapidly emerging new technology of biological treatment.

This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the 3R concept applied to wastewater treatment and resource recovery under a double perspective. Firstly, it deals with innovative technologies leading to: Reducing energy requirements, space and impacts; Reusing water and sludge of sufficient quality; and Recovering resources such as energy, nutrients, metals and chemicals, including biopolymers. Besides targeting effective C,N&P removal, other issues such as organic micropollutants, gases and odours emissions are considered. Most of the technologies analysed have been tested at pilot- or at full-scale. Tools and methods for their Economic, Environmental, Legal and Social impact assessment are described. The 3R concept is also applied to Innovative Processes design, considering different levels of innovation: Retrofitting, where novel units are included in more conventional processes; Re-Thinking, which implies a substantial flowsheet modification; and Re-Imagining, with completely new conceptions. Tools are presented for Modelling, Optimising and Selecting the most suitable plant layout for each particular scenario from a holistic technical, economic and environmental point of view.

Book excerpt: This volume, written by well-known experts in the field, covers all aspects of Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA) Associated Vasculitis (AAV). The expression refers to a group of diseases, characterized by destruction and inflammation of small vessels. The clinical signs vary and affect several organs, such as the kidney, lung, skin, nervous system and others. The opening chapters give some historical hints, explain the genetic basis of the disease and provide insights into the pathogenesis derived from recent experimental studies and guides the reader through classification and nomenclature. A large part of the book is then devoted to a detailed description of the specific related diseases and their clinical presentations, the disease course, and potential complications. The advice regarding treatment is based on the best currently available evidence in this constantly evolving area. The book is part of Springer’s series Rare Diseases of the Immune System, which presents recently acquired knowledge on pathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapy with the aim of promoting a more holistic approach to these conditions. AAVs are systemic autoimmune diseases of unknown cause that affect small (to medium) sized blood vessels. They include granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly Wegener's granulomatosis), microscopic polyangiitis, and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (formerly Churg–Strauss syndrome). This volume will be an invaluable source of up-to-date information for all practitioners involved in the care of patients with these diseases.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lucid statement of the philosophy of modular programming can be found in a 1970 textbook on the design of system programs by Gouthier and Pont [1, l Cfl0. 23], which we quote below: A well-defined segmentation of the project effort ensures system modularity. Each task fonos a separate, distinct program module. At implementation time each module and its inputs and outputs are well-defined, there is no confusion in the intended interface with other system modules. At checkout time the in tegrity of the module is tested independently; there are few sche duling problems in synchronizing the completion of several tasks before checkout can begin. Finally, the system is maintained in modular fashion; system errors and deficiencies can be traced to specific system modules, thus limiting the scope of detailed error searching. Usually nothing is said about the criteria to be used in dividing the system into modules. This paper will discuss that issue and, by means of examples, suggest some criteria which can be used in decomposing a system into modules. A Brief Status Report The major advancement in the area of modular programming has been the development of coding techniques and assemblers which (1) allow one modu1e to be written with little knowledge of the code in another module, and (2) alJow modules to be reas sembled and replaced without reassembly of the whole system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Predictive Modeling covers the overall predictive modeling process, beginning with the crucial steps of data preprocessing, data splitting and foundations of model tuning. The text then provides intuitive explanations of numerous common and modern regression and classification techniques, always with an emphasis on illustrating and solving real data problems. The text illustrates all parts of the modeling process through many hands-on, real-life examples, and every chapter contains extensive R code for each step of the process. This multi-purpose text can be used as an introduction to predictive models and the overall modeling process, a practitioner’s reference handbook, or as a text for advanced undergraduate or graduate level predictive modeling courses. To that end, each chapter contains problem sets to help solidify the covered concepts and uses data available in the book’s R package. This text is intended for a broad audience as both an introduction to predictive models as well as a guide to applying them. Non-mathematical readers will appreciate the intuitive explanations of the techniques while an emphasis on problem-solving with real data across a wide variety of applications will aid practitioners who wish to extend their expertise. Readers should have knowledge of basic statistical ideas, such as correlation and linear regression analysis. While the text is biased against complex equations, a mathematical background is needed for advanced topics.
