Shell scripts are everywhere, especially those written in bash-compatible syntax. But these scripts can be complex and obscure. Complexity is the enemy of security, but it's also the enemy of readability and understanding. With this practical book, you'll learn how to decipher old bash code and write new code that's as clear and readable as possible.
Authors Carl Albing and JP Vossen show you how to use the power and flexibility of the shell to your advantage. You may know enough bash to get by, but this book will take your skills from manageable to magnificent. Whether you use Linux, Unix, Windows, or a Mac, you'll learn how to read and write scripts like an expert. Your future you will thank you.

Flexible Batterieshighlights the key advances in flexible batteries, a booming new direction in the energy storage field.
The authors first introduce lithium-ion batteries, which are currently the most widely used batteries. Flexible aqueous batteries such as aqueous lithium-ion, sodium-ion, and zinc-ion batteries are discussed subsequently due to the safety concerns in organic electrolytes. Since flexible metal-air batteries are recognized as primary choices for the next generation, the authors take lithium-air and aluminum-air batteries as examples to explore their applications in flexible battery construction. They further summarize flexible batteries under the most challenging working conditions such as stretching and integrating flexible batteries with flexible energy harvesting devices, sensors, and supercapacitors.

Heejung Chung, "The Flexibility Paradox: Why Flexible Working Leads to (Self-)Exploitation "
English | ISBN: 144735477X | 2022 | 270 pages | PDF | 16 MB
Does flexible working really provide a better work-life balance? Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, flexible working has become the norm for many workers. This volume offers an original examination of flexible working using data from 30 European countries and drawing on studies conducted in Australia, the US and India. Rather than providing a better work-life balance, the book reveals how flexible working can lead to exploitation, which manifests differently for women and men, such as more care responsibilities or increased working hours. Taking a critical stance, this book investigates the potential risks and benefits of flexible working and provides crucial policy recommendations for overcoming the negative consequences.

In the 5G era, edge computing and new ecosystems of mobile microservices enable new business models, strategies, and competitive advantage. Focusing on microservices, this book introduces the essential concepts, technologies, and trade-offs in the edge computing architectural stack, providing for widespread adoption and dissemination. The book elucidates the concepts, architectures, well-defined building blocks, and prototypes for mobile microservice platforms and pervasive application development, as well as the implementation and configuration of service middleware and AI-based microservices. A goal-oriented service composition model is then proposed by the author, allowing for an economic assessment of connected, smart mobile services. Based on this model, costs can be minimized through statistical workload aggregation effects or backhaul data transport reduction, and customer experience and safety can be enhanced through reduced response times. This title will be a useful guide for students and IT professionals to get started with microservices and when studying the use of microservices in pervasive applications. It will also appeal to researchers and students studying software architecture and service-oriented computing, and especially those interested in edge computing, pervasive computing, the Internet of Things, and mobile microservices.
