Описание: Disruptive innovation can be defined as the introduction of new technologies and products -such as generated by cellular biotechnology- that unexpectedly displaces an established technology and often "disrupts" the status quo. By 2050, the global population is predicted to reach 9.8 billion of which more than 8 billion will live in the developing world of today. The expected increase in income per capita will confer increased competition for resources and, subsequently, there will be great need to "produce more and using less." Population growth, climate change, ecosystem degradation, as well as scarcity of energy, water and land are making today's food production increasingly unsustainable. Land, water and energy are three major but limited resources needed to increasing future food production, which may particularly challenge resource-intensive livestock industry. Extensive production systems tend to increase environmental impacts, especially when considering that sustainability is the balance of responsibility, economic viability and social acceptability. Especially for the growing population in developing countries, the availability of animal protein sources i.e. meat, dairy and eggs should not be underestimated. Consumption of these foods, which are deeply embedded in social culture and are signs of wellbeing and prosperity, will continue to increase.

Описание: Social demonstrations that take place on university campuses have profound effects on students as well as the environments in which those students live and learn. These demonstrations, in recent years, have taken on traditional forms such as spontaneous protests, organized marches, and organized rallies, but they have also been affected by technologically mediated strategies that can bring larger sets of students together to support shared beliefs.Exploring the Technological, Societal, and Institutional Dimensions of College Student Activism provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of social demonstrations on university campuses and responses from administrative professionals. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as advocacy, student activism, and free speech, this book is ideally designed for university administrators, policymakers, government officials, academic leaders, researchers, and institutions seeking current research on student engagement in social demonstrations on the campuses of colleges and universities.

Описание: Social robots not only work with humans in collaborative workspaces – we meet them in shopping malls and even more personal settings like health and care. Does this imply they should become more human, able to interpret and adequately respond to human emotions? Do we want them to help elderly people? Do we want them to support us when we are old ourselves? Do we want them to just clean and keep things orderly – or would we accept them helping us to go to the toilet, or even feed us if we suffer from Parkinson’s disease?The answers to these questions differ from person to person. They depend on cultural background, personal experiences – but probably most of all on the robot in question. This book covers the phenomenon of social robots from the historic roots to today’s best practices and future perspectives. To achieve this, we used a hands-on, interdisciplinary approach, incorporating findings from computer scientists, engineers, designers, psychologists, doctors, nurses, historians and many more. The book also covers a vast spectrum of applications, from collaborative industrial work over education to sales. Especially for developments with a high societal impact like robots in health and care settings, the authors discuss not only technology, design and usage but also ethical aspects. Thus this book creates both a compendium and a guideline, helping to navigate the design space for future developments in social robotics.
