| special research pokemon go 2022: Humanizing Technology With Emotional Intelligence Tikadar, Subrata, Liu, Haipeng, Bhattacharya, Pronaya, Bhattacharya, Samit, 2024-12-23 In an era where technology permeates every aspect of our lives, the imperative for sentient systems has never been greater. This necessity stems from the recognition that effective human-computer interaction (HCI) transcends mere transactional exchanges, aspiring instead to foster connections that are as nuanced and empathetic as those between humans. Emotional intelligence in computing systems, therefore, is not a luxury but a prerequisite for creating technologies that enhance, rather than hinder, our daily lives. Affective computing, the interdisciplinary domain at the heart of this endeavor, bridges the gap between human emotional experience and computational technology, aiming to imbue machines with the ability to detect, interpret, and respond to human emotions. Humanizing Technology With Emotional Intelligence delves into the why and how of incorporating emotional intelligence into computing systems. The book provides a comprehensive overview of both the theoretical foundations and the practical applications of affective computing in HCI. Covering topics such as automotive safety, holistic student development, and social robotics, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, researchers, graduate and postgraduate students, software developers, product managers, and more. |

| special research pokemon go 2022: Smart Cities and Smart Communities Srikanta Patnaik, Siddhartha Sen, Sudeshna Ghosh, 2022-05-28 “Smart City” programs and strategies have become one of the most dominant urban agendas for local governments worldwide in the past two decades. The rapid urbanization rate and unprecedented growth of megacities in the 21st century triggered drastic changes in traditional ways of urban policy and planning, leading to an influx of digital technology applications for fast and efficient urban management. With the rising popularity in making our cities “smart”, several domains of urban management, urban infrastructure, and urban quality-of-life have seen increasing dependence on advanced information and communication technologies (ICTs) that optimize and control the day-to-day functioning of urban systems. Smart Cities, essentially, act as digital networks that obtain large-scale real-time data on urban systems, process them, and make decisions on how to manage them efficiently. The book presents 26 chapters, which are organized around five topics: (1) Conceptual framework for smart cities and communities; (2) Technical concepts and models for smart city and communities; (3) Civic engagement and citizen participation; (4) Case studies from the Global North; and (5) Case studies from the Global South. |

| special research pokemon go 2022: The Gamer's Guide to International Relations Michael A. Allen, 2025-02-19 Ready Player One meets Foreign Affairs—everything your students need to know about international relations through the lens of video games! The Gamer’s Guide to International Relations uses massively popular video games as a stepping stone to learning about international relations. The study of international relations concerns itself with critical topics like war, civil war, terrorism, human rights, trade, monetary policy, and the environment. Each of these areas of human need, crisis, and response can be difficult to understand. However, gamers already implicitly understand the international world through the games they play. Drawing upon lessons gamers learn through gameplay, this volume guides readers as to how their existing knowledge can help untangle some of the most complicated topics facing humanity. The book progresses by introducing readers to how scholars use the scientific method in international relations. Readers will encounter pivotal international relations theories that explain why war occurs, like realism, liberalism, and constructivism, as well as understanding concepts like the bargaining model of war. The book discusses how we learn about international politics and guides the reader through how we can research world politics and gaming. Finally, the book focuses on key interest areas like international political economy, human rights, the environment, and civil war. |

| special research pokemon go 2022: Nexus Yuval Noah Harari, 2024-09-10 #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of Sapiens comes the groundbreaking story of how information networks have made, and unmade, our world. “Strikingly original . . . A historian whose arguments operate on the scale of millennia has managed to capture the zeitgeist perfectly.”—The Economist “This deeply important book comes at a critical time as we all think through the implications of AI and automated content production. . . . Masterful and provocative.”—Mustafa Suleyman, author of The Coming Wave For the last 100,000 years, we Sapiens have accumulated enormous power. But despite all our discoveries, inventions, and conquests, we now find ourselves in an existential crisis. The world is on the verge of ecological collapse. Misinformation abounds. And we are rushing headlong into the age of AI—a new information network that threatens to annihilate us. For all that we have accomplished, why are we so self-destructive? Nexus looks through the long lens of human history to consider how the flow of information has shaped us, and our world. Taking us from the Stone Age, through the canonization of the Bible, early modern witch-hunts, Stalinism, Nazism, and the resurgence of populism today, Yuval Noah Harari asks us to consider the complex relationship between information and truth, bureaucracy and mythology, wisdom and power. He explores how different societies and political systems throughout history have wielded information to achieve their goals, for good and ill. And he addresses the urgent choices we face as non-human intelligence threatens our very existence. Information is not the raw material of truth; neither is it a mere weapon. Nexus explores the hopeful middle ground between these extremes, and in doing so, rediscovers our shared humanity. |
