Using Computer Science in the Food Industry


Book Description

With automation arriving, all industries need coders behind the scenes. The food industry is no exception. This insightful book guides future computer science experts on a path to success, from which high school and college classes to take, to a thorough overview of potential jobs in several food industry sectors. This guide will prove useful to students interested in writing programs that assist in food production, distribution and sales, or in restaurants and delivery apps. Government-vetted statistics and industry outlook, guidance on college and vo-tech admissions, and handy tips on job hunting and interviewing round out this invaluable book.







2013 International Conference on Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence


Book Description

The main objective of ICCSAI2013 is to provide a platform for the presentation of top and latest research results in global scientific areas. The conference aims to provide a high level international forum for researcher, engineers and practitioners to present and discuss recent advances and new techniques in computer science and artificial intelligence. It also serves to foster communications among researcher, engineers and practitioners working in a common interest in improving computer science, artificial intelligence and the related fields. We have received 325 numbers of papers through "Call for Paper", out of which 94 numbers of papers were accepted for publication in the conference proceedings through double blind review process. The conference is designed to stimulate the young minds including Research Scholars, Academicians, and Practitioners to contribute their ideas, thoughts and nobility in these two disciplines.




Using Computer Science in Agribusiness


Book Description

The business of agriculture has historically been low-tech. However, computer science has revolutionized this industry. In this fascinating book, future coders will learn about innovations in agriculture such as robotics, self-driving tractors, automated irrigation systems, aerial and ground-based monitoring tools, drone and satellite surveillance, air and soil sensors, and artificial intelligence, which are aiding in feeding the world. All of these technologies need software to run and coders to create it. Readers will learn how to enter the industry and what kind of education is needed for these specific fields.

Advances and Applications in Computer Science, Electronics, and Industrial Engineering


Book Description

This book presents the proceedings of the 3rd Conference on Computer Science, Electronics, and Industrial Engineering (CSEI 2021), held in Ambato in October 2021, with participants from 10 countries and guest speakers from Chile, Colombia, Brasil, Spain, Portugal, and United States. Featuring 20 peer-reviewed papers, it discusses topics such as the use of metaheuristics for non-deterministic problem solutions, software architectures for supporting e-government initiatives, and the use of electronics in e-learning and industrial environments. It also includes contributions illustrating how new approaches to these converging research areas are impacting the development of human societies around the world. As such, it is a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners alike.




Postharvest and Postmortem Processing of Raw Food Materials


Book Description

Postharvest and Postmortem Processing of Raw Food Materials, a volume in the Unit Operations and Processing Equipment in the Food Industry series, presents the processing operations and handling of agricultural crops, animal products, and raw food materials after their harvesting/slaughtering and entrance into food production factories. Chapters in this new release cover an Introduction to postharvest and postmortem technology, Primary operations in postharvest processing, Disintegration of raw agricultural crops, Disintegration with little changes in form (Husking, Shelling, Pitting, Coring, Snipping and Destemming), Disintegration with considerable changes in form (Cutting/dicing, crashing and grinding, Slaughtering, Shredding, Sheeting), and much more. Written by experts in the field of food engineering, and in a simple and dynamic way, this book targets all who are engaged in food processing operations worldwide, giving readers good knowledge on the basics of food engineering principles and applications. - Thoroughly explores novel applications of postharvest/postmortem operations in processing food products - Brings perspectives about the postharvest processing of different agricultural crops and postmortem processing of different animal meats - Helps to improve the quality and safety of food products with postharvest/postmortem operations




Impactful Technologies Transforming the Food Industry


Book Description

In today's rapidly evolving world, technology has permeated every aspect of our lives, and the culinary world is no exception.Impactful Technologies Transforming the Food Industry delves into the revolutionary role of technology in transforming the way we produce, prepare, and experience food. From restaurant operations to the dining experience and the rise of food delivery services, this book explores the profound impact of technology on the food industry. Impactful Technologies Transforming the Food Industry provides an in-depth exploration of the objectives, motivations, and consequences associated with the adoption of technology in the food industry through meticulous analysis and real-world examples. From advanced ordering systems and kitchen automation to virtual reality and interactive dining experiences, readers gain valuable insights into how technology has revolutionized the way food businesses operate and how it has reshaped the relationship between consumers and food. This book also addresses the emergence of food delivery services, the ethical considerations of technology in the industry, and the potential future trajectory of food tech. It is an essential resource for food industry professionals, students, policymakers, and consumers interested in the intersection of gastronomy and technology.




Case Studies in Food Product Development


Book Description

New product development is vital for the future of the food industry. Many books have been written on NPD theory over the last 40 years, but much can still be learnt by studying actual experiences of NPD. Case studies in food product development describes specific NPD projects in a variety of industries internationally and also records overall comments, written by the very people who have completed the projects.Part one outlines new product development in the food industry and part two views product development strategy and management in different companies and organisations. Parts three, four and five are twelve case studies on respectively the product development process, technological development, consumer and market research. Part six considers product development in practice and the final chapter demonstrates how product developers are being educated.The case studiers are written by experienced product developers talking openly about experiences with their own products. It is hoped that those faced with similar challenges will gain from these real life experiences.Mary and Dick are also co-authors with Allan Anderson of Food product development, which has achieved international success. Case studies in food product development is a complement and a practical companion to this book. - Describes new product development in a variety of international industries - Outlines new product development in the food industry and views product management and strategy in different organisations - Includes case studies focusing on the product development process, technological development, and consumer and market research
