Run following Matlab commands to make sure the installation worked correctly.
Unlike query function, filterdb does not load all waveforms to memory but returns filtered database object. This is useful when the resulting set of the query is too big to fit in memory. Consequent calls to read function can be made to read content of this filtered database object.
Quake 3 s MD3 Viewer (july 13, 2007), loads and displays a player and a weapon.
Supports lighting, texture mapping and animation.
Includes a sample player model with weapon. See README for how to use it.
Note (1): it uses the POSIX opendir/readdir functions, which are not implemented in all compilers under Windows (MinGW supports them).
Note (2): This demo works on little endian architectures only.
Libraries: OpenGL, GLU, GLUT, boost, libjpeg.

Smart Grids provide many benefits for society. Reliability, observability across the
energy distribution system and the exchange of information between devices are just
some of the features that make Smart Grids so attractive. One of the main products of
a Smart Grid is to data. The amount of data available nowadays increases fast and carries
several kinds of information. Smart metres allow engineers to perform multiple
measurements and analyse such data. For example, information about consumption,
power quality and digital protection, among others, can be extracted. However, the main
challenge in extracting information from data arises from the data quality. In fact, many
sectors of the society can benefit from such data. Hence, this information needs to be
properly stored and readily available. In this chapter, we will address the main concepts
involving Technology Information, Data Mining, Big Data and clustering for deploying
information on Smart Grids.

With billions of ‘people and things’ becoming increasingly connected, the need to combine the potential
of unlicensed and licensed wireless services has become an imperative for the operators, cities, high
density venues and players focused on key market opportunities such as IoT, big data and 5G. The WBA
has developed Vision 2020 to harness its experience of creating seamlessly interconnected wireless
services in new and emerging areas.
The Internet of Things is considered to be the next big opportunity, and challenge, for the
Internet engineering community, users of technology, companies and society as a whole. It
involves connecting embedded devices such as sensors, home appliances, weather stations
and even toys to Internet Protocol (IP) based networks. The number of IP-enabled embedded
devices is increasing rapidly, and although hard to estimate, will surely outnumber the
number of personal computers (PCs) and servers in the future. With the advances made over
the past decade in microcontroller,low-power radio, battery and microelectronic technology,
the trend in the industry is for smart embedded devices (called smart objects) to become
IP-enabled, and an integral part of the latest services on the Internet. These services are no
longer cyber, just including data created by humans, but are to become very connected to the
physical world around us by including sensor data, the monitoring and control of machines,
and other kinds of physical context. We call this latest frontier of the Internet, consisting of
wireless low-power embedded devices, the Wireless Embedded Internet. Applications that
this new frontier of the Internet enable are critical to the sustainability, efficiency and safety
of society and include home and building automation, healthcare, energy efficiency, smart
grids and environmental monitoring to name just a few.
The third generation (3G) mobile communication system is the next big thing
in the world of mobile telecommunications. The first generation included
analog mobile phones [e.g., Total Access Communications Systems
(TACS), Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT), and Advanced Mobile Phone
Service (AMPS)], and the second generation (2G) included digital mobile
phones [e.g., global system for mobile communications (GSM), personal
digital cellular (PDC), and digital AMPS (D-AMPS)]. The 3G will bring
digital multimedia handsets with high data transmission rates, capable of
providing much more than basic voice calls.
The first practical examples of mobile communications were used in many countries like
the USA, the UK and Germany in military services, and played a significant role in the
First World War to transfer important information from the front to headquarters to take
further actions. Good and secure wireless communications were an important need for all
military services – army, navy and air force. In this respect, the Second World War was a big
experimental battlefield for the development and evolution of mobile radio. It was in the
interests of governments that after the Second World War the military investment should
be paid back by civilian use, and all western European countries started their so-called first
generation of mobile communication networks.
This is a practical book, to be sure, but it is also a book about hope and posi-
tive change. I am quite sincere. The delivery of electricity is deeply rooted
in the principle of universal access; when clean, reliable energy is available it
contributes to poverty alleviation, improved social conditions, and enhanced
economic development. In the developed world, we know this to be true. The
digital fabric of our lives is a testimony to the importance of energy security.
Across the globe, we have seen the vital contributions that electrification has
brought to the development of economies and an enhanced quality of life.
Nonetheless, this supreme engineering achievement has languished, and we are
deeply challenged.
