Global Tendency of Silver Population Benefits

Ecological Restoration, Global Challenges, Social Aspects and Environmental Benefits

This book consists of 14 chapters covering important aspects in regards to various terrestrial ecosystems, wetlands, river systems, mine site rehabilitation, marsh ecology and heavy metals pollution. Also aims to fill some of the information gaps in ecological restoration, particularly in under-researched ecosystems around the world. Restoration ecology emerged as a separate field in ecology in...

Benefits of Global Sustainability

An increasing number of companies are rapidly adopting sustainability techniques. Sustainability is defined as lowering the environmental impacts of economic activity and buildings to a level which allows the indefinite maintenance of a given production level and lifestyle.

Peripheral global neglect in high vs. low autistic tendency

In addition to its core social deficits, autism is characterized by altered visual perception, with a preference for local percept in those high in autistic tendency. Here, the balance of global vs. local percepts for the perceptually rivalrous diamond illusion was assessed between groups scoring high and low on the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ). The global percept of a diamond shape oscillatin...

The Benefits of Entropy in Population Protocols

A distributed computing system can be viewed as the result of the interplay between a distributed algorithm specifying the effects of a local event (e.g. reception of a message), and an adversary choosing the interleaving (schedule) of these events in the execution. In the context of large networks of mobile pairwise interacting agents (population protocols), the adversary models the mobility o...
