Reform and Modernity in Islam

The Philosophical, Cultural and Political Discourses Among Muslim Reformers

By: Safdar Ahmed

The debate over Islam and modernity tends to be approached from a Eurocentric perspective that presents Western norms as a template for progress - against which Islamic societies can be measured. This misses the historical development of Muslim reformist thought that actively engages with the world around it and seeks to reconfigure Islam within the diverse conditions of modernity. Safdar Ahmed paints a complex and nuanced picture that goes beyond the idea that Muslim reformers have either reproduced or reacted against Western ideas. Rather, Ahmed argues, they have reconstructed and appropriated these ideas, and so the thread of Western influence runs through modern Islamic thought on nationalism and sovereignty, femininity and gender. Ahmed uncovers new historiographical perspectives by critically examining the work of prominent intellectuals, such as Muhammad Abduh, Qasim Amin and Abdul A'la Maududi.

Content-Centric Networks

An Overview, Applications and Research Challenges

By: Syed Hassan Ahmed,Safdar Hussain Bouk,Dongkyun Kim

This book introduces Content-Centric Networking (CCN), a networking paradigm that provides a simple and effective solution to the challenging demands of future wired and wireless communications. It provides an overview of the recent developments in the area of future internet technologies, bringing together the advancements that have been made in Information-Centric Networking (ICN) in general, with a focus on CCN. It begins with an introduction to the basics of CCN is followed by an overview of the current internet paradigm and its challenges. Next, an application perspective has been included, where the authors encompass the selected applications for CCN with recent refereed research and developments. These applications include Internet of Things (IoT), Smart Grid, Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs), and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The book is a useful reference source for practising researchers, and can be used as supporting material for undergraduate and graduate level courses in computer science and electrical engineering.

Still Alive

Notes from Australia's Immigration Detention System

By: Safdar Ahmed

In early 2011, Safdar Ahmed visited Sydney's Villawood Immigration Detention Centre for the first time. He brought pencils and sketchbooks into the centre and started drawing with the people detained there. Their stories are told in this book.Interweaving journalism, history and autobiography, Still Alive is an intensely personal indictment of Australia's refugee detention policies and procedures. It is also a searching reflection on the redemptive power of art. And death metal.Safdar Ahmed won a Walkley Award in 2015 for his web comic Villawood: Notes from an immigration detention centre.

Engineering of Additive Manufacturing Features for Data-Driven Solutions

Sources, Techniques, Pipelines, and Applications

By: Mutahar Safdar,Guy Lamouche,Padma Polash Paul,Gentry Wood,Yaoyao Fiona Zhao

This book is a comprehensive guide to the latest developments in data-driven additive manufacturing (AM). From data mining and pre-processing to signal processing, computer vision, and more, the book covers all the essential techniques for preparing AM data. Readers willl explore the key physical and synthetic sources of AM data throughout the life cycle of the process and learn about feature engineering techniques, pipelines, and resulting features, as well as their applications at each life cycle phase. With a focus on featurization efforts from reviewed literature, this book offers tabular summaries for major data sources and analyzes feature spaces at the design, process, and structure phases of AM to uncover trends and insights specific to feature engineering techniques. Finally, the book discusses current challenges and future directions, including AI/ML/DL readiness of AM data. Whether you're an expert or newcomer to the field, this book provides a broader summary of the status and future of data-driven AM technology.

Through that which Separates Us

By: Cushla Donaldson

Conceptualised and developed by contemporary artist Cushla Donaldson with publishers Te Reo Kē and The Physics Room, Through That Which Separates Us is a collection of writing, artworks, and interviews which form a genealogy of deportation in Australasia and the Pacific. Taking as its point of departure Cushla Donaldson's artwork 501s, first staged at the Melbourne Art Fair in 2018, this book seeks both to make transparent the mechanisms of separation and to foster forms of planetary solidarity that might abolish their conditions. Deportation is an organising principle that has begun to impress itself across all areas of social life. Yet discussions of deportation rarely interrogate the origins of the practice as a settler colonial technique, nor the complex relations between migration and indigeneity that these origins bring to light. The collection understands the experiences of the so-called 501s, held in Australian detention centres and often deported on the basis of a 'character test', as a paradigmatic case illustrating the intersection of xenophobia and settler colonial violence. Through That Which Separates Us is a significant new collection that interrogates the epistemological, affective, and aesthetic dimensions of life in a world structured by separation. As Trans-Tasman and Pacific tensions rise, the book serves as urgent reading."--The Physics Room website (accessed 5/07/2021).
