Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Various agencies throughout the Department of Defense possess intelligence imagery and electrooptical signature data required by researchers in the field of automatic target recognition (ATR). The Air Force Research Laboratory, Sensors Directorate, has been tasked with creating a virtual distributed laboratory (VDL) which will make this data available to ATR researchers via high speed networks such as the defense research and engineering network (DREN). For this research, a model for simulating potential operational network configurations and collaboration scenarios was developed and implemented using OPNET. The results of the simulations were analyzed using statistical methods to determine the impact on performance of network configuration, connection speed, server capability, and data size. Connection speed proved to be the ultimate limiting factor on system performance, but statistical insights regarding usage patterns and file sizes are drawn from the results as well. This research provides VDL designers with performance trend data and enhances the design process by providing insight into how design decisions will affect future network performance.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A new generation of teachers envisions a liberal arts education that is good for everyone.Why would anyone study the liberal arts It's no secret that the liberal arts have fallen out of favor and are struggling to prove their relevance. The cost of college pushes students to majors and degrees with more obvious career outcomes.A new cohort of educators isn't taking this lying down.They realize they need to reimagine and rearticulate what a liberal arts education is for, and what it might look like in today's world. In this book, they make an honest reckoning with the history and current state of the liberal arts.You may have heard or asked some of these questions yourself: Aren't the liberal arts a waste of time How will reading old books and discussing abstract ideas help us feed the hungry, liberate the oppressed and reverse climate change Actually, we first need to understand what we mean by truth, the good life, and justice. Aren't the liberal arts racist The "great books" are mostly by privileged dead white males.Despite these objections, for centuries the liberal arts have been a resource for those working for a better world. Here's how we can benefit from ancient voices while expanding the conversation. Aren't the liberal arts liberal Aren't humanities professors mostly progressive ideologues who indoctrinate students In fact, the liberal arts are an age-old tradition of moral formation, teaching people to think for themselves and learn from other perspectives. Aren't the liberal arts elitist Hasn't humanities education too often excluded poor people and minorities While that has sometime been the case, these educators map out well-proven ways to include people of all social and educational backgrounds. Aren't the liberal arts a bad career investment I really just want to get a well-paying job and not end up as an overeducated barista.The numbers and the people hiring tell a different story.In this book, educators mount a vigorous defenseof the humanist tradition, but also chart a path forward, building on their tradition's strengths and addressing its failures. In each chapter, dispatches from innovators describe concrete ways this is being put into practice, showing that the liberal arts are not only viable today, but vital to our future.\*\*\*Contributors include Emily Auerbach, Nathan Beacom, Jeffrey Bilbro, Joseph Clair, Margarita Mooney Clayton, Lydia Dugdale, Brad East, Don Eben, Becky L.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - These essays will interest readers familiar with the work of Nobel Prize-winner Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn and are a great starting point for those eager for an introduction to the great Russian's work.When people think of Russia today, they tend to gravitate toward images of Soviet domination or, more recently, Vladimir Putin's war against Ukraine. The reality, however, is that, despite Russia's political failures, its rich history of culture, religion, and philosophical reflection-even during the darkest days of the Gulag-have been a deposit of wisdom for American artists, religious thinkers, and political philosophers probing what it means to be human in America. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn stands out as the key figure in this conversation, as both a Russian literary giant and an exile from Russia living in America for two decades. This anthology reconsiders Solzhenitsyn's work from a variety of perspectives-his faith, his politics, and the influences and context of his literature-to provide a prophetic vision for our current national confusion over universal ideals.In Solzhenitsyn and American Culture: The Russian Soul in the West, David P. Deavel and Jessica Hooten Wilson have collected essays from the foremost scholars and thinkers of comparative studies who have been tracking what Americans have borrowed and learned from Solzhenitsyn and his fellow Russians. The book offers a consideration of what we have in common-the truth, goodness, and beauty America has drawn from Russian culture and from masters such as Solzhenitsyn-and will suggest to readers what we can still learn and what we must preserve. The last section expands the book's theme and reach by examining the impact of other notable Russian authors, including Pushkin, Dostoevsky, and Gogol.Contributors: David P.
