Footprints on the Sand is a book of poetic expressions. The poets views of the everyday aspects of life are written about in poetic form. Love, marriage, aspirations, friendship, courage, etc., are some of the issues touched in happiness.
Elixir of life is the fourth book of my written poems. The poems are a reflection of life, hence the title. They show both sides of life the negative or the positive. My view of life comes from the wisdom I have gained as a keen observer of life. The nuances of life, the experiences, the struggles all of these tell a story. I tried to portray them in my poems. Human nature is very unpredictable. Human sufferings teach us a different view of life. I observe and marvel at the resilience people show in the face of adversity. The truth of their realisation touches me too. In repose at night, several thoughts crowd my mind. I try to write them down in my poems. I hope and pray that readers will like my poems and the reflection of life they portray.
In the quarter century since its emergence from military rule and integration into the global economy, Bangladesh's economy has achieved high growth, reduced aid dependence and made remarkable improvement in social indicators while at the same time it continues to suffer from increasing inequality. This book analyses these successes and failures.
AN INTRODUCTION TO Wavelet Modulated Inverters An authoritative guide to designing and constructing wavelet functions that accurately model complex circuits for better performance This is the first book to provide details, analysis, development, implementation, and performances of wavelet modulated (WM) inverters, a novel technique that keeps power systems stable and minimizes energy waste while enhancing power quality and efficiency. Written by experts in the power electronics field, it provides step-by-step procedures to implement the WM technique for single- and three-phase inverters. Also presented are key sample performance results for the new WM power inverters for different load types, which demonstrate the inverters’ simplicity, efficacy, and robustness. Beginning with the fundamentals of inverter technology, the book then describes wavelet basis functions and sampling theory with particular reference to the switching model of inverters. From there, comprehensive chapters explain: The connection between the non-uniform sampling theorem and wavelet functions to develop an ideal sampling-reconstruction process to operate an inverter The development of scale-based linearly combined basis functions in order to successfully operate single-phase WM inverters Performances of single-phase WM inverters for static, dynamic, and non-linear loads The simulation and experimental performances of three-phase wavelet modulated voltage source inverters for different loads at various operating conditions The book establishes, for the first time, a direct utilization of different concepts of the sampling theorem and signal processing in accurate modeling of the operation of single- and three-phase inverters. Figures are provided to help develop the basis of utilizing concepts of the sampling, signal processing, and wavelet theories in developing a new tool and technology for inverters. Also included are easy-to-follow mathematical derivations, as well as procedures and flowcharts to facilitate the implementation of the WM inverters. These items make this unique reference of great interest to academic researchers, industry-based researchers, and practicing engineers. It is ideally suited for senior undergraduate and graduate-level students in electrical engineering, computer engineering, applied signal processing, and power electronics courses.

This book is intended for students, researchers, and professionals eager to harness the combined power of biostatistics, data science, and the R programming language while gathering vital statistical knowledge needed for cutting-edge scientists in all fields. It is useful for those seeking to understand the basics of data science and statistical analysis, or looking to enhance their skills in handling any simple or complex data including biological, health, medical, and industry data. Key Features: Presents contemporary concepts of data science and biostatistics with real-life data analysis examples Promotes the evolution of fundamental and advanced methods applying to real-life problem-solving cases Explores computational statistical data science techniques from initial conception to recent developments of biostatistics Provides all R codes and real-world datasets to practice and competently apply into reader’s own domains Written in an exclusive state-of-the-art deductive approach without any theoretical hitches to support all contemporary readers
The poems in The Essence of Life are didactic. Most are written about proverbs and aphorisms, and provide a realistic view of life. They take a look at the world with keen observations based on the author’s experience and understanding of various issues. Proverbs and aphorisms are compact descriptions of experience. As such, the poems elaborate these compact descriptions, asking the reader to go beyond the proverbs and clichés to understand life as we live it. Readers will find interesting explanations and advice on numerous topics. Expectations from the poems are met with theoretical rhetoric. Those wanting to know full details of the proverbs are shown the sayings as explanations of life. This incisive book of poetry looks at life from all perspectives and accomplishes it quite wisely.

This book provides a literature review of various wireless MAC protocols and techniques for achieving real-time and reliable communications in the context of cyber-physical systems (CPS). The evaluation analysis of IEEE 802.15.4 for CPS therein will give insights into configuration and optimization of critical design parameters of MAC protocols. In addition, this book also presents the design and evaluation of an adaptive MAC protocol for medical CPS, which exemplifies how to facilitate real-time and reliable communications in CPS by exploiting IEEE 802.15.4 based MAC protocols. This book will be of interest to researchers, practitioners, and students to better understand the QoS requirements of CPS, especially for healthcare applications.

Since the birth of Bangladesh in December 1971, successive governments have adopted the orthodox economic policies advocated by aid donors and international agencies. But, this book shows that poverty and inequality have increased, largely because governments lacked stability and authority.
