Computer Performance Engineering

Interoperability in IoT for Smart Systems discusses the different facets of interoperability issues among the IoT devices and their solutions, the scalability issues in an IoT network, and provides solutions for plug-n-play of new devices with the existing IoT system. It also addresses the possible usage of interoperable and plug-n-play IoT networks in different systems to make them smarter. Aimed at researchers and graduate students in computer science, computer engineering, computer networks, electronics engineering, this bookExclusively covers interoperability of IoT systems in parallel with their use towards the development of smart systems Discusses the requirements of interoperability in smart IoT systems and their solutions Reviews IoT applications in different smart and intelligent systems Explores dealing with interoperability of heterogeneous participating devices Provides different case studies and open problems related to interoperability in IoT systems

Expanding on the highly successful previous two editions, this third edition of Proton Therapy Physics has been updated throughout and includes several new chapters on “Adaptive Proton Therapy,” "Imaging for Planning,” “Flash Proton Therapy,” and “Outcome Modeling for Patient Selection.” Suitable for both newcomers in medical physics and more seasoned specialists in radiation oncology, this book provides an in-depth overview of the physics of this radiation therapy modality, eliminating the need to dig through information scattered across medical physics literature. After tracing the history of proton therapy, this book explores the atomic and nuclear physics background necessary for understanding proton interactions with tissue. The text then covers dosimetry, including beam delivery, shielding aspects, computer simulations, detector systems, and measuring techniques for reference dosimetry.Important for daily operations, acceptance testing, commissioning, quality assurance, and monit
