Humans and Autonomous Vehicles - Joseph Giacomin

This book provides an introduction to the Human Centred Design of autonomous vehicles for professionals and students. While rapid progress is being made in the field of autonomous road vehicles the majority of actions and the research address the technical challenges, with little attention to the physical, perceptual, cognitive and emotional needs of humans. This book fills a gap in the knowledge by providing an easily understandable introduction to the needs and desires of people in relation to autonomous vehicles. The book is "human centred design" led, adding an important human perspective to the primarily technology-driven debates about autonomous vehicles. It combines knowledge from fields ranging from linguistics to electrical engineering to provide a holistic, multidisciplinary overview of the issues affecting the interactions between autonomous vehicles and people. It emphasises the constraints and requirements that a human centred perspective necessitates, giving balanced information about the potential conflicts between technical and human factors. The book provides a helpful introduction to the field of design ethics, to enhance the reader’s awareness and understanding of the multiple ethical issues involved in autonomous vehicle design. Written as an accessible guide for design practitioners and students, this will be a key read for those interested ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Úsilie Slovákov o autonómiu (978-80-8128-230-0)

Kniha - autor Róbert Letz, 272 stran, slovensky, pevná bez přebalu lesklá Autonómia - samospráva Slovenska patrí ku kľúčovým pojmom moderných slovenských dejín. Jej predpokladom bola existencia slovenského národa s vlastnými dejinami a kultúrou a vlastné ním obývané územie. Z toho sa odvodzovalo právo na samosprávu slovenského územia. Úsilie o autonómiu Slovenska sa zrodilo ešte v historických a spoločenských podmienkach Uhorska a pokračovalo v období prvej Československej republiky. Odzrkadľuje cestu od Žiadostí slovenského národa cez Memorandum národa slovenského, Memorandum Slovenskej ligy v Amerike, Clevelandskú a Pittsburskú dohodu, návrhy na autonómiu Slovenska z dielne Hlinkovej slovenskej ľudovej strany a Slovenskej národnej strany až k vyhláseniu autonómie Slovenska v roku 1938.

Autonomous - Henry King, Vala Afshar

A compelling roadmap to building an autonomous business, best positioned to win, using digital labor powered by Agentic and physical AIAn autonomous business is designed to be AI-first in its strategies and operations to maximize value and minimize time to value, and when it is done right it will unlock unprecedented speed, scale and shared success. But getting from one-off AI implementations - where most companies are at today - to autonomy will be neither easy nor obvious. Business leaders will need to challenge all the conventions, standard operating procedures and orthodoxies underpinning businesses designed by humans for humans – which is to say just about all of them! They will need to build digital labor to non-linearly scale the health, conditioning and talent of their teams, business and ecosystem, enabling 24x7x365 continuity and responsiveness, removing blockages and waste that trap or reduce value. They will need to manage the relationships between the two types of intelligent resources, digital and human. They will need to design for AI control and teach human leaders to “let go of the steering wheel”. The goal of Autonomous is to further expand the Boundless design principles that have guided the fastest growing companies in ... Unknown localization key: "more"

How to Create Autonomous Learners - Taryn Moir

To achieve their full potential, it is essential that children develop skills to become autonomous learners, yet this skill does not come naturally to many learners. This book is a practical teaching and planning guide to the theory, practice and the implementation of evidence-based approaches to develop essential metacognitive and self-study skills. How to Create Autonomous Learners explains how to get students, parents and partners on board and how to implement these ideas across a class, school, or consortium. Areas covered include:• How to get children and young people ready to learn.• Why it is important to teach learning strategies. • Encouraging children to become more active in the process of learning while also nurturing the development of creativity.• How to harness learner motivation as metacognition and motivation are highly linked.Easily applicable in any classroom, this essential resource supports children’s development of important metacognitive, self-regulatory and self-study skills, and provides teachers and school leaders with evidence-based approaches for implementing these ideas with the support of parents, students and partners.

Dreaming of Autonomous Vehicles - Jaroslav Olša jr.

When American editor Hugo Gernsback began publishing Amazing Stories, the first ever monthly magazine devoted to the emerging genre of science fiction, in April 1926 in New York City, he had no choice but to reprint the earlier works of classics by Jules Verne, H. G. Wells and Edgar Allan Poe in the first nine issues. It was only in the following years that new names appeared in the pages of the magazine. The very first new author to appear in Amazing Stories was Miles J. Breuer, whose short story "The Man with the Odd Head" Gernsback included in the January 1927 issue just after Wells' completion of The First Men in the Moon. But the life story and literary work of the now forgotten Nebraska doctor, who was considered a true star of the genre by American science fiction readers at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s, is much more varied and interesting. He didn't start writing for Amazing Stories; he published his first story that could be classified as science fiction almost two decades earlier, but without readers noticing. Not only that, but many of his literary works, including early short stories (only later published in science ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Radical Friends: Decentralised Autonomous Organisations and the Arts - Penny Rafferty, Ruth Catlow

Decentralised Autonomous Organisations (DAOs) offer unique tools for translocal peers to encode rules, relations and values into their joint ventures using blockchain technology. This new book, edited by Ruth Catlow and Penny Rafferty, who have been at the forefront of investigations into the relationship between DAOs and the arts, constitutes over 5 years of research with essays, interviews, exercises and prototypes from leading thinkers, artists and technologists across this emerging field. In recent years DAOs have been heralded as a powerful stimulus for experimentation to reshape new cultural value systems for interdependence, cooperation, and care. At a time when the mainstream artworld is focused on NFTs, this book refocuses attention toward DAOs as potentially the most radical blockchain technology for the arts, in the long term. Contributors engage with both past and emergent methodologies for building resilient and mutable systems for scale-free mutual aid. Collectively, the book aims to evoke and conjure new imaginative communities, and to share the practices and blueprints for the vehicles to get there. Contributors: Ramon Amaro, Calum Bowden, Jaya Klara Brekke, Mitchell F. Chan, Cade Diehm, eeefff, Carina Erdmann, Primavera De Filippi, Charlotte Frost, Max Hampshire, Lucile Olympe Haute, Sara Heitlinger, Lara Houston, Cadence Kinsey, ...

The Autonomous City - Alexander Vasudevan

The Autonomous City is the first popular history of squatting as practised in Europe and North America. Alex Vasudevan retraces the struggle for housing in Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, Detroit, Hamburg, London, Madrid, Milan, New York, and Vancouver. He looks at the organisation of alternative forms of housing—from Copenhagen’s Freetown Christiana to the squats of the Lower East Side—as well as the official response, including the recent criminalisation of squatting, the brutal eviction of squatters and their widespread vilification.Pictured as a way to reimagine and reclaim the city, squatting offers an alternative to housing insecurity, oppressive property speculation and the negative effects of urban regeneration. We must, more than ever, reanimate and remake the urban environment as a site of radical social transformation.
