S. E. Kile argues that Li Yu's cultural experimentation draws attention to the materiality of particular media forms, expanding the scope of early modern media by interweaving books, buildings, and bodies.

Eco-Towers introduces readers to groundbreaking designs, most progressive projects, and innovative ways of thinking about a new generation of green skyscrapers that could provide solutions to crises the world faces today including climate change, depleting resources, deteriorating ecology, population increase, decreasing food supply, urban heat island effect, pollution, deforestation, and more. The book suggests that the eco-tower culminates the cultural and technological evolutions of the 21st century by building and improving on the experiences of earlier designs of skyscrapers and philosophies particularly green, sustainable, and ecological. It argues that the true green skyscraper is the one that engages successfully with its larger urban context by establishing symbiotic relationships with the social, economic, and environmental aspects. Since tall buildings are becoming larger and taller, serving greater number of people, and exerting higher demand on the environment and existing infrastructure, any improvements in their design and construction will significantly enhance urban conditions. The book elucidates how green skyscrapers better serve tenants, mitigate environmental impacts, and improve integration with the city infrastructure. It explains how skyscrapers’ long life cycle offers the greatest justifications for recycling precious resources, and makes it a worthwhile to employ green features in constructing new skyscrapers and retrofitting existing ones. Subsequently, the book explores new designs that are employing cutting-edge green technologies at a grand scale including water-saving technologies, solar panels, helical wind turbines, sunlight-sensing LED lights, rainwater catchment systems, graywater and blackwater recycling systems, seawater-powered air conditioning, and the like. In the future, new building materials and smart technologies will continue to offer innovative design approaches to sustainable tall buildings with new aesthetics, referred to as “eco-iconic” skyscrapers.

For thirty years, the twin towers of the World Trade Center soared above the New York City skyline, eventually becoming one of the most conspicuous symbolic structures in the world. They appeared in hundreds of films, from Godspell and Death Wish to Trading Places, Ghostbusters and The Usual Suspects. The politicians, architects and engineers who developed the towers sought to imbue them with a powerful visual presence. The resulting buildings provided filmmakers with imposing set pieces capable of conveying a range of moods and associations, from the sublime and triumphal to the sinister and paranoid. While they stood, they captured the imagination of the world with their enigmatic symbolism. In their dramatic destruction, they became icons of a history that is still being written. Here viewed in the context of popular cinema, the twin towers are emblematic of how architecture, film and narrative interact to express cultural aspirations and anxieties.

This book provides a broad coverage of fundamental and advanced con cepts of data structures and algorithms. The material presented includes a treatment of elementary data structures such as arrays, lists, stacks, and trees, as well as newer structures that have emerged to support the process ing of multidimensional or spatial data files. These newer structures and algorithms have received increasing attention in recent years in conjunc tion with the rapid growth in computer-aided design, computer graphics, and related fields in which multidimensional data structures are of great interest. Our main objective is to mesh the underlying concepts with application examples that are of practical use and are timely in their implementations. To this end, we have used mainly the Abstract Data Structure (or Abstract Data Type (ADT)) approach to define structures for data and operations. Object-oriented programming (OOP) methodologies are employed to im plement these ADT concepts. In OOP, data and operations for an ADT are combined into a single entity (object). ADTs are used to specifiy the objects-arrays, stacks, queues, trees, and graphs. OOP allows the pro grammer to more closely mimic the real-world applications. This OOP is more structured and modular than previous attempts. OOP has become de facto state-of-the-art in the 1990s.

Explore functional programming in C# with the help of clear explanations, practical examples, and hands-on exercises and write efficient, modular, and readable code Key Features Master functional programming in C# for expressive, modular code Apply advanced concepts such as error handling and asynchronous programming to overcome real-world challenges Gain practical coding skills through practical application and self-assessment questions Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook Book DescriptionIn an era where software complexity is increasing by the day, functional programming offers a paradigm that simplifies code maintenance and enhances reliability. Functional Programming with C# takes you on an exhaustive journey into functional programming within C#. The book familiarizes you with the core principles and benefits of functional programming, juxtaposing it with imperative and object-oriented paradigms. You’ll get to grips with the functional features of C# and learn to write expressive, modular code through expressions, pure functions, and higher-order functions. As you advance, you’ll explore advanced concepts such as error handling and asynchronous programming, which will equip you with the practical skills that you need to tackle real-world challenges. By comparing functional programming in C# with other languages and providing additional resources, this book ensures that you’re well-equipped to continue your journey toward mastery in functional programming. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained a thorough understanding of functional programming techniques, such as recursion, memoization, and composition, empowering you to write robust, maintainable code.What you will learn Understand the core principles of functional programming Differentiate functional, imperative, and OOP paradigms Write expressive code with higher-order functions Handle errors effectively using functional techniques Utilize asynchronous programming for concurrent tasks Grasp advanced concepts, such as recursion and memoization Who this book is for This book is for intermediate-to-advanced C# developers looking to expand their programming paradigm horizons. Software engineers, developers, and programmers familiar with C# and object-oriented programming who want to delve deeper into functional programming concepts will find this book very useful. This book is ideal for professionals aiming to enhance code modularity, readability, and scalability. While prior knowledge of C# is necessary, beginners with a strong grasp of programming fundamentals can also benefit from the clear explanations and practical exercises provided.

The book has been developed to provide comprehensive and consistent coverage of both the concepts of data structures as well as implementation of these concepts using C programming. The book utilizes a systematic approach wherein each data structure is explained using examples followed by its implementation using a programming language. It begins with the introduction to data types. In this, an overview of various types of data structures is given and asymptotic notations, best case, worst case and average case time complexity is discussed. The book then focuses on the linear data structures such as arrays, stacks, queues and linked lists. In these units each concept is followed by its implementation and logic explanation part. The book then covers the non-linear data structures such as trees and graphs. These data structures are very well explained with the help of illustrative diagrams, examples and implementations. The text book then covers two important topics - hashing and file structures. While explaining the hashing - various hashing methods, and collision handling techniques are explained with necessary illustrations and examples. File structures are demonstrated by implementing sequential, index sequential and random file organization. Finally searching and sorting algorithms, their implementation and time complexities are discussed. The sorting and searching methods are illustrated systematically with the help of examples. The explanation in this book is in a very simple language along with clear and concise form which will help the students to have clear-cut understanding of the subject.
