Book Space Fostering African Societies

Download or read book Space Fostering African Societies written by Annette Froehlich and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This peer-reviewed book provides detailed insights into how space and its applications are, and can be used to support the development of the full range and diversity of African societies, as encapsulated in the African Union’s Agenda 2063. Following on from Part 1 and 2, which were highly acclaimed by the space community, it focuses on the role of space in supporting the UN Sustainable Development Goals in Africa, but covers an even more extensive array of relevant and timely topics addressing all facets of African development. It demonstrates that, while there have been significant achievements in recent years in terms of economic and social development, which have lifted many of Africa’s people out of poverty, there is still a great deal that needs to be done to fulfill the basic needs of Africa's citizens and afford them the dignity they deserve. To this end, space is already being employed in diverse fields of human endeavor to serve Africa’s goals for its future, but there is much room for further incorporation of space systems and data. Providing a comprehensive overview of the role space is playing in helping Africa achieve its developmental aspirations, the book will appeal to both students and professionals in fields such as space studies, international relations, governance, and social and rural development.

Book Raspberry Pi OS System Administration

Download or read book Raspberry Pi OS System Administration written by Robert M Koretsky and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-07-03 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth volume in a new series exploring the basics of Raspberry Pi Operating System administration, this installment builds on the insights provided in Volumes 1, 2, and 3 to provide a compendium of easy-to-use and essential Raspberry Pi OS administration for the novice user, with specific focus on ancillary topics that can be used with the Raspberry Pi OS based upon upstream Debian Bookworm release, and the Raspberry Pi 5. The overriding idea behind system administration of a modern, 21st-century Linux system such as the Raspberry Pi OS is the use of systemd to ensure that the Linux kernel works efficiently and effectively to provide these three foundation stones of computer operation and management: computer system concurrency, virtualization, and secure persistence. This fourth volume includes full-chapter explications, with many examples, of the following: the Zettabyte File System (ZFS), the X Window System, the Wayland protocol, XWayland, the Wayfire window manager, XCB, Qt5, and GTK4 graphics, the Emacs text editor, and a basic introduction to important Raspberry Pi commands for the novice user. This book is aimed at students and practitioners looking to maximize their use of the Raspberry Pi OS. With plenty of practical examples, projects, and exercises, this volume can also be adopted in a more formal learning environment to supplement and extend the basic knowledge of a Linux operating system.

Book Raspberry Pi IoT In C  3rd Edition

Download or read book Raspberry Pi IoT In C 3rd Edition written by Harry Fairhead and published by I/O Press. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reviews of the previous edition: "A complete explanation that makes it straightforward to interface I/O options to the Pi. Good examples are easy to follow and well explained - starting with "Hello World" and then walks through the various interface options available with GPIO. I highly recommend this to anyone using the Pi for any embedded system application requiring various types of interfaces." "This is the book to read to get deep into Raspberry IoT. Programming examples are provided. Great book!" The Raspberry Pi makes an ideal match for the Internet of Things. But to put it to good use in IoT you need two areas of expertise, electronics and programming and, because of the way hardware and software engineering tend to occupy separate niches, you may need help with combining the two which is the role of this book. This 3rd Edition was prompted by the arrival of the Pi 5. Unfortunately, as the Pi 5 uses the new RP1 chip to implement its peripherals, it is incompatible with all of the IoT libraries that work directly with the hardware. As a result it is excluded from much of this book. A whole chapter is, however, devoted to getting started with an IoT project with the Pi 5 and it is also covered in chapters on the Linux GPIO driver and on the use of the Pi's serial ports and in a chapter, which describes how to access the Pi 5's registers directly. What is more important than the Pi 5 from the point of view of IoT is the Pi Zero 2W, which is a much faster, quad-core, version of the Pi Zero W making it an excellent choice for IoT projects. It is covered for the first time in this edition. Another reason for a new edition is to update its programs to the new versions of Pi OS, Bookworm and Bullseye. Finally, a major change is that VS Code is now the book's IDE of choice and to make it easy to use as a remote development environment with all versions of Pi from Pi Zero to Pi 5, a set of custom VS Code tasks are supplied, which are downloadable as well as included in the book. The main idea in this book is to work directly with the hardware using the Raspberry Pi's GPIO (General Purpose Input Output) to connect with off-the-shelf sensors. After reading it you will be in a better position to tackle interfacing anything-with-anything without the need for custom drivers and prebuilt hardware modules. Harry Fairhead has worked with microprocessors and electronics for many years and is an enthusiastic proponent of the IoT. C is his programming language of choice and he has written several books on programming the Raspberry Pi and other devices in an IOT context, including Raspberry Pi IoT in C With Linux Drivers, Second Edition, Programming the ESP32 in MicroPython and Fundamental C: Getting Closer To The Machine. Currently, his most popular title is Programming the Raspberry Pi Pico/W in C.

Book The Cambridge Companion to Electronic Music

Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to Electronic Music written by Nick Collins and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musicians are always quick to adopt and explore new technologies. The fast-paced changes wrought by electrification, from the microphone via the analogue synthesiser to the laptop computer, have led to a wide range of new musical styles and techniques. Electronic music has grown to a broad field of investigation, taking in historical movements such as musique concrète and elektronische Musik, and contemporary trends such as electronic dance music and electronica. The first edition of this book won the 2009 Nicolas Bessaraboff Prize as it brought together researchers at the forefront of the sonic explorations empowered by electronic technology to provide accessible and insightful overviews of core topics and uncover some hitherto less publicised corners of worldwide movements. This updated and expanded second edition includes four entirely new chapters, as well as new original statements from globally renowned artists of the electronic music scene, and celebrates a diverse array of technologies, practices and music.
