This conference proceedings is a collection of papers accepted for CENet2024 - the 14th International Conference on Computer Engineering and…
Networks, held in Kashi, China, 18-21 October 2024. The topics covered include Internet of Things and Smart Systems, Artificial Intelligence and Applications, Detection, Analysis and Application of Communication Systems, Cloud Computing and Security, and Medical Engineering and Information Systems. Each section of this book can serve as an excellent reference for industry practitioners, university faculty, research fellows, undergraduate and graduate students who wish to build a knowledge base of the latest advances and state-of-the-art practices in the topics covered. Using this knowledge, they will be able to design, implement and manage systems that are both complex and trustworthy. We would like to thank the authors for their hard work and dedication, and the reviewers for their efforts in ensuring that only the highest quality papers were selected. Without their contributions, the proceedings would not have been possible.

This book presents searches for the Higgs boson, Z boson, and W boson decaying into charm quark(s) performed with proton-proton…
collision data at √s = 13TeV collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, CERN, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb−1 and recorded between 2016 and 2018. The searches are carried out using events in which the Higgs/Z/W boson is produced in association with a leptonically-decaying Z or W boson. This thesis also discusses a novel calibration algorithm for charm jet identification that enables maximal use of the available information related to charm jets. The new method is used to correct the entire distribution expected as output when jet flavour identification algorithms are applied to jets of different flavours. The calibrated results improve over traditional efficiency measurements and help enhance the sensitivities of the Higgs, Z, and W searches. This book primarily reports on the so-called resolved-jet topology of the Higgs/Z/W boson searches, where the boson candidates are reconstructed using two separate small-radius (AK4) jets. Upon statistically combining the results of the resolved-jet search with a complementary merged-jet approach, the observed (expected) upper limit on the Higgs decay to charm quarks corresponds to 14 (7.6) times the Standard Model expectation at the 95% CL which is the most stringent direct limit to date. A significance of 5.7σ (5.9σ) over the background-only prediction is observed (expected) in case of the search for charmed Z boson decays. Only the resolved-jet topology is used in the search for charmed W decays and the observed (expected) significance is 5.6σ (5.7σ) over the background-only prediction. These mark the first observations of charmed decays of the Z and W bosons at a hadron collider experiment.

This book provides a comprehensive coverage of the theory of conjugacy in finite classical groups. Given such a classical group…
G, the three fundamental problems considered are the following: to list a representative for each conjugacy class of G; to describe the centralizer of each representative, by giving its group structure and a generating set; and to solve the conjugacy problem in G—namely, given two elements of G, establish whether they are conjugate, and if so, find a conjugating element. The book presents comprehensive theoretical solutions to all three problems, and uses these solutions to formulate practical algorithms. In parallel to the theoretical work, implementations of these algorithms have been developed in Magma. These form a critical component of various general algorithms in computational group theory—for example, computing character tables and solving conjugacy problems in arbitrary finite groups.

This book examines the progress of the development of public policy evaluation in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)…
region from multiple perspectives. It describes both past developments and the current state of evaluation across the region, focusing on how political regimes, administrative traditions and policy advisory systems shape evaluation processes in different contexts. With contributions from a diverse list of international authors, it investigates the historical development of evaluation across the MENA region and analyses the political landscape, highlighting emerging trends and potential challenges that could influence the future of the field. An essential resource for researchers and practitioners in evaluation, public policy and the MENA region, the book also provides students with the practical knowledge and essential skills needed for careers in evaluation and policy analysis.

'Michael Sheridan is one of the best informed and wisest writers on China' - Chris Patten, last governor of Hong…
KongThe Red Emperor presents an eye-opening portrait of Xi Jinping, the man who presides over 1.4 billion people and the second largest economy on earth. Born a 'princeling' to one of Communist China's ruling families, the young Xi was exiled to the countryside during the Cultural Revolution. He fought his way back to the top by stealth, privilege and guile. In 2012, following the spectacular fall of his rival Bo Xilai, Xi Jinping became the leader of China.In a compulsively readable narrative, veteran foreign correspondent Michael Sheridan takes the reader from the poor, isolated country of Xi's youth to the military and economic superpower of today. In Xi's new China, family mafias struggle for power amid murder, corruption and sex scandals as ministers and generals vanish in purges. No one is safe in his techno-security state. Xi is an absolute ruler whose word is law on everything from war and peace to the ruthless campaign against Covid-19. He aims to dominate world trade, to defeat Western democracy and to make China the supreme power in the East. A loner and a risk-taker, he is the most consequential leader of our time.Drawing on intimate stories from the closed world of China's leading families and two decades of first-hand reporting, Michael Sheridan sheds new light on the history and politics of China. The book reveals that behind the façade of the Chinese Communist Party there is a modern dynasty and a new emperor.

"Sweeney's prose is on fire. A blistering book that readers will relish enormously." MICHAEL HARDING"A cracking read ... a championship…
season as redemption song." MICHAEL CLIFFORD"All the tension of a tight knockout encounter ... one of the books of the year." MIKE McCORMACKIn the summer of 2024, sports columnist Eamonn Sweeney set out to follow the All-Ireland championships around the country, retracing footsteps he'd first laid down in his 2004 bestseller The Road to Croker. But there was one big problem. For many years, he had struggled with a crippling travel phobia that left him largely confined to his hometown in West Cork. To fulfil his publishing contract, he had to face his deepest fears.The Last Ditch is a story about mental health, hidden shame and a life-changing moment in a remote train station. It's about a hurling championship which may have been the greatest ever played and a football championship which definitely was not. It's about unlikely triumphs, remarkable renaissances, shocks, cliff-hangers and heartbreaks on the pitch. Off the field, it is the story of one man's embrace of a changing Ireland as he takes back his life. Both an unforgettable sports odyssey and a revelatory personal account, The Last Ditch is a celebration of resilience, the healing power of connection and the unifying spirit of the GAA.
