This conference encompassed a joint effort among Universiti Sains Malaysia, SEAL NET, and LIPI to address critical issues throughout the South East Asian regions particularly large scale anthropogenic activities that are unsustainable and could impact ecosystem function, biodiversity and the well-being of human populations. This conference was attended by 41 registered participants and served as a platform for researchers, scientists, managers, policymakers and local communities determined to find sustainable solutions to preserve natural resources and biodiversity of this unique region. As a result of diverse research backgrounds, we believe this conference proceeding covers many topics of significance for the reader. Contributions from authors feature findings from fields of ecology, biodiversity, mathematical and ecological modelling, technological and engineering approaches to resource and disaster management, sustainable potential of biocompounds, and human health among others. It is with hope that this proceeding will strengthen the basis for further research, cooperation and collaboration among various scientific disciplines in an effort to enhance the conservation and preservation of our natural resources and ecosystems in the South East Asian region.

Craig","doi":"10.1515/spark.67.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1515/spark.67.1","url":null,"abstract":"Nanomaterial is one of the hottest fields in nanotechnology that studies fabrication, characterization, and analysis of materials with morphological features on the nanoscale in at least one dimension. Recent progress in synthesis and fundamental understanding of properties of nanomaterial has led to significant advancement of nanomaterial-based gas/chemical/biological sensors. The most important aspect of nanomaterial is their special properties associated with nanoscale geometries. The most fundamental characteristic of nanomaterial is the high surface area to volume ratio, which results in a number of unusual physical and chemical properties such as high molecular adsorption, large surface tension force, enhanced chemical and biological activities, large catalytic effects, and extreme mechanical strength, but another unique property of nanomaterial and recently most studied is the quantum size effect that leads to their discrete electronic band structure like those of molecules. This quantum property of nanomaterial can lead to an extraordinary high sensitivity and selectivity of biosensors and can be benefit to the field of diagnostics. In this book, we focus on a wide range of nanomaterials including nanoparticles, quantum dots, carbon nanotubes, molecularly imprinted nanostructures or plastibodies, nanometal, DNA-based structures, smart nanomaterials, nanoprobes, magnetic nanomaterials, organic molecules such as phthalocyanines and porphyrins, and the most amazing novel nanomaterial called graphene, for various gas/chemical/biological sensing applications. Moreover, perspectives of new sensing techniques such as nanoscaled electrochemical detection, functional nanomaterialamplified optical assay, colorimetric fluorescence, and electrochemiluminescence are reviewed and extensively explained. This book includes recent progress of selected nanomaterials over a broad range of gas/chemical/biological sensing applications, and examples of nanomaterials in sensing and diagnostic application are given. The use of biofunctional nanomaterials in signal amplification for ultrasensitive biosensing is extensively discussed. The biofunctional nanomaterials with the abilities of specific recognition and signal triggering can be employed as not only","PeriodicalId":92310,"journal":{"name":"Transactions.

Craig","doi":"10.2307/j.ctvzpv6kq.4","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2307/j.ctvzpv6kq.4","url":null,"abstract":"Networked control systems (NCSs) are control systems where the control loops are closed via communication channels. With the rapid development of networking communication technologies, NCSs have received increasing attention in the past decade. Compared with traditional point-to-point control systems, NCSs have a number of advantages, such as low cost, easy maintenance, and increased system flexibility. More recently, much attention has also been paid to design the suitable communication scheme to save the limited communication resource for NCSs. The study of NCSs can be twofold: designing controller over a preselected network and designing appropriate communication scheme for satisfying the requirement of control. In the first designing controller over a preselected network field, Internet Protocol (IP) networks are commonly preselected in NCSs due to their well-developed infrastructure, wide acceptance, simplicity, and affordability. The IP-based network delays display a nonuniform distribution character with small delays being dominant while large delays being exiguous, which implies that the probability of small delays is bigger than the one of large delays. However, this feature has not been well used in the analysis and synthesis of NCSs. Therefore, how to effectively use nonuniform delay distribution character in NCSs has stimulated the first research line of this monograph. In the second designing appropriate communication scheme field, communication bandwidth is a scarce resource in NCSs. If signal transmission only occurs when the relevant information from the sensor-to-controller needs to be transmitted, then not only all of the transmitted signals from the controller-to-actuator are helpful to ensure the desired performance, but also the redundant information is possibly avoided in the transmission. Therefore, more limited network resources can be released to other communication tasks in need. Notice that time-triggered communication schemes are a common assumption in some existing results, which leads to inefficient utilization of the limited network resources. Therefore, how to design efficient communication schemes to save the limited communication resource while ensuring the desired performance of NCSs has stimulated the second research line of this monograph.","PeriodicalId":92310,"journal":{"name":"Transactions.
