Free Download Eric R. Force, "Impact of Tectonic Activity on Ancient Civilizations: Recurrent Shakeups, Tenacity, Resilience, and Change"
English | ISBN: 1498514278 | 2015 | 212 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Impact of Tectonic Activity on Ancient Civilizations: Recurrent Shakeups, Tenacity, Resilience, and Change observes a remarkable spatial correspondence of zones of active tectonism (i.e. plate boundaries in the earth’s crust) with the most complex cultures of antiquity ("great ancient civilizations"), and continues to explore the meaning of this relationship from a number of independent angles. Due to resulting site damage, this distribution is counter-intuitive. Nevertheless, systematic differences between "tectonic" and "quiescent" cultures show that tectonic activity corresponded in antiquity with more cultural dynamism. Data of several independent types support direct cultural influence of tectonism, including vignettes of the impact of tectonism in specific ancient cultures. An expectation of change seems to be a feature such tectonic cultures shared, and led to an acceleration of development. These dynamics continue though much obscured in the present day.

Free Download Lara Honos-webb, "The Gift of ADHD Activity Book: 101 Ways to Turn Your Child’s Problems into Strengths"
English | 2008 | pages: 158 | ISBN: 1572245158 | EPUB | 0,4 mb
So much depends on how you look at things: Are you a glass-half-empty person, or do you discover advantages where other people find only weaknesses? When it comes to raising healthy, happy kids, positive encouragement and support can work miracles where attempts to change and control create frustration and resentment. In her first book, The Gift of ADHD, psychologist Lara Honos-Webb offers a positive, strengths-affirming new way to look at kids who present behaviors associated with attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Instead of struggling to "tame" your easily distracted child, she shows you how to appreciate your child’s creativity, sensitivity, and passion for living. In this book, she develops the ideas from The Gift of ADHD into 101 simple and engaging activities you can use to develop your child’s unique strengths.

Free Download System of Human Activity Systems: A Novel Way to Visualize Invisible Risks
English | 2023 | ISBN: 981995133X | 277 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 18 MB
This book has unique features that set it apart from conventional books on the prevention of system failures in that it provides a method that views human activities from a meta-methodological perspective based upon an inter-disciplinary understanding of human activities. With these characteristics, the book also proposes a common methodological basis to apply to various problems surrounding society today such as an aging social infrastructure; the safety of food, medicine, and public transportation; and the creation of sustainable electricity and cybersecurity. Furthermore, since the failure of human activities is expressed in a three-dimensional space and the topological metrics are implemented, the failure trajectories can be quantitatively monitored in time series to take effective preventive measures. Considering the implementation of the topological metrics, the causes of each failure are classified into two dimensions of the degree of coupling between system elements and the interaction between the target system and the external environment. Owing to the nature of the introduction of topological metrics, all individual and diverse systems can share general topological metrics. Consequently, understanding various failures over cross-industries is possible with the use of common meta-systemic language and mutual learning between different industries, and the solution of social problems can be effectively achieved. A system of system failures (SOSF) proposed and confirmed the effectiveness of this meta-methodology for information and communication technologies (ICT) systems and the SOSF is extended to human activity systems (SOHAS: system of human activity systems) as a whole. Therefore, the SOHAS becomes an academic foundation for theoretical research on meta-methodology, and it has an impact on practitioners to prevent system failures by accumulating knowledge of failures and learning from other industries.

Free Download Software Development Activity Cycles: Collaborative Development, Continuous Testing and User Acceptance by Robert F. Rose
English | July 22, 2022 | ISBN: 1484282388 | 311 pages | MOBI | 5.54 Mb
Written from the perspective of a Technical Project Manager, this study presents a scenario for a complete "shift left" software development effort. It brings considerations for Test and Support as early as the Inception Stage. Based on an innovative model – Development Process Activity Cycles (DPAC) – this representation allows visualization of progress including recursive activities. The model is based on an interpretation of the Deming quality cycle of Plan Do, Check Act (PDCA). Periodic Management reports are generated using configuration management data generated during the Act phase of each iteration. There is no Test stage in the DPAC model; Test is represented in the back swing Check Phase of each iteration.This approach allows the user or Subject Mater Expert (SME) to contemplate the face of the system through several iterations of design and development, using the triad principle ("Power of Three") matching a programmer, tester and member of the user community This approach incrementally reveals the best fit to the intent of the vision statement and iteratively uncovers the needs of the user while maintaining conceptual integrity.
