Punjab River Waters Dispute in South Asia


Book Description

This book examines the Punjab river waters controversy in South Asia, a major defining feature of Punjab politics. It also studies the difficult situation relating to the waters at the intersectionality of Punjab, the rural Sikh community, the neighboring state of Haryana, and the Indian central government. Analyzing the history of the dispute dating back to the partition of the country in 1947, the book looks at the constitutional provisions and other laws which govern the allocation of inter-state river waters in India and their application/ departure in the allocation of river waters in case of Punjab. It also assesses the impact of river waters issue on politics of the State. The author investigates how Punjab peasants, an influential segment of society, have played a catalytic role in determining party positions on the subject, resulting in a situation where the SutlejYamuna Link (SYL) canal will not be allowed to be constructed in Punjab territory. An important contribution to the waters dispute in the Punjab, this book will be of interest to academics studying South Asian and Indian politics and rural political economy.




Applications of AI for Interdisciplinary Research


Book Description

Applying artificial intelligence (AI) to new fields has made AI and data science indispensable to researchers in a wide range of fields. The proliferation and successful deployment of AI algorithms are fuelling these changes, which can be seen in fields as disparate as healthcare and emerging Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Machine learning techniques, and AI more broadly, are expected to play an ever-increasing role in the modelling, simulation, and analysis of data from a wide range of fields by the interdisciplinary research community. Ideas and techniques from multidisciplinary research are being utilised to enhance AI; hence, the connection between the two fields is a two-way street at a crossroads. Algorithms for inference, sampling, and optimisation, as well as investigations into the efficacy of deep learning, frequently make use of methods and concepts from other fields of study. Cloud computing platforms may be used to develop and deploy several AI models with high computational power. The intersection between multiple fields, including math, science, and healthcare, is where the most significant theoretical and methodological problems of AI may be found. To gather, integrate, and synthesise the many results and viewpoints in the connected domains, refer to it as interdisciplinary research. In light of this, the theory, techniques, and applications of machine learning and AI, as well as how they are utilised across disciplinary boundaries, are the main areas of this research topic. This book apprises the readers about the important and cutting-edge aspects of AI applications for interdisciplinary research and guides them to apply their acquaintance in the best possible manner This book is formulated with the intent of uncovering the stakes and possibilities involved in using AI through efficient interdisciplinary applications The main objective of this book is to provide scientific and engineering research on technologies in the fields of AI and data science and how they can be related through interdisciplinary applications and similar technologies This book covers various important domains, such as healthcare, the stock market, natural language processing (NLP), real estate, data security, cloud computing, edge computing, data visualisation using cloud platforms, event management systems, IoT, the telecom sector, federated learning, and network performance optimisation. Each chapter focuses on the corresponding subject outline to offer readers a thorough grasp of the concepts and technologies connected to AI and data analytics, and their emerging applications




Gun Violence and Prevention - Connections, Cultures, and Consequences


Book Description

People are dying or suffering all over the world from the plague of gun violence, and countries and entire regions are reeling from the damage, instability, and insecurity that gun violence causes. Taking a global perspective on the problem, and identifying correlates such as drug trafficking, gun trafficking, state failure, ethnic and political conflict, terrorism and war, and the consequent rise of personal fear and insecurity leading to more citizens arming themselves or hiring armed security forces, the chapters in this volume look far beyond the United States, which monopolizes public and scholarly attention, to include India, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Africa. The chapters explore and compare histories of, causes of, correlates of, and responses to gun violence across this broad region, predominantly in the Global South, identifying commonalities and differences in the character, incidence, and attempted prevention of gun violence. The volume aims to inform readers about gun violence in these often-overlooked places and to encourage intensified quantitative and qualitative research into the geographical and historical diversity of such violence and the steps taken by various countries to curb it. Only with a cross-cultural and transhistorical perspective can we hope to lower the personal and social cost that gun violence inflicts on populations around the globe.
