Urban Computing and Artificial Intelligence: A Data-Driven Tool for Urban Heat Mitigation is the first full synthesis of modern scientific and applied research on climate change, urban warming, and the future of resilient cities. The book helps city governments better understand how to plan for the effects of climate change and impending natural disasters. It compiles the concepts, strategies, and technologies associated with resilient cities, and provides an outline of what constitutes climate change and its behavior relating to urban systems. Finally, the book develops a comprehensive concept for the future resiliency of cities related to hydro-climatology and extreme events.Next, it explains the physical principles governing the formation of distinct hydro-climatology and resilient cities, and then illustrates how this knowledge can be applied to moderate the undesirable consequences of swift and haphazard urban development (energy, peak electricity demand, health, comfort, economy, and environment) and help to create more sustainable and resilient cities for the future. With urban climate science now a fully-fledged growing field, this timely book fulfils the need to bring together the disparate parts of urban climate research in global cities into a coherent framework. It is an ideal resource for students, researchers, and policymakers in the fields of urban climate, urban architecture and planning, environmental engineering, urban design, and redevelopment.

Computational Modeling Applications for Climate Crisis provides readers with innovative research on the applications of computational modeling to moderate climate change. The book begins with an overview and history of climate change, followed by several chapters covering the concepts of computational modeling and simulation, including parameters of climate change, modeling the effects of human activities, visualization tools, and data fusion for advanced modeling applications. It then proceeds to cover decision support systems, modeling of technological solutions for climate change, modeling of greenhouse gas emissions, tracking of climate factors, and modeling of earth resources. In the final chapters of the book, the authors cover nation-based outcomes, big data, and optimization solutions with real-world data and case studies. Climate change is one of the most pressing existential issues for humans and the planet, and this book covers leading-edge applications of computational modeling to the vast array of interdisciplinary factors and challenges posed by climate change. As life itself is a mixture of occurrences that can be mathematically modelled, it is important to work with specific parameters, which are critical for monitoring and controlling the dynamics of the earth, natural resources, technological factors, and human activities.

Synthetic Media, Deepfakes, and Cyber Deception: Attacks, Analysis, and Defenses introduces the only analytical Synthetic Media Analysis Framework (SMAF) to help describe cyber threats and help security professionals anticipate and analyze attacks. This framework encompasses seven dimensions: Credibility, Control, Medium, Interactivity, Familiarity, Intended Target, and Evocation. Synthetic media is a broad term that encompasses the artificial manipulation, modification, and production of information, covering a spectrum from audio-video deepfakes to text-based chatbots. Synthetic media provides cyber attackers and scammers with a game-changing advantage over traditional ROSE attacks because they have the potential to convincingly impersonate close associates through text, imagery, voice, and video.This burgeoning threat has yet to be meaningfully addressed through any written treatment on the topic. The book is co-authored by three cyber influence and deception experts who have gained deep knowledge and experience on the topic through diverse, true operational pathways and backgrounds. The diversity and perspectives of the author team makes the content in the book the broadest and deepest treatment of synthetic media attacks available to readers.
