This book contains practical experiences, knowledge, and insights in the evolution, formulation, and implementation of strategies and models for flexibility, innovation, and sustainable business. The book discussed the increasing significance of a flexible approach by businesses as much as possible in every area of their work—from employment policies to supply chain management (SCM). It further links this flexible approach to a sustainability strategy, which is necessary to be competitive today and in the future. This business approach is necessary to create long-term value by considering how a given organization operates in the ecological, social, and economic environment. This is linked to the next theme of the book—innovation—which is fundamental for a business to improve its processes, develop new and improved products and services for the market, increase its efficiency, and, most importantly, get better profitability. The book also delves into another buzz word in business—analytics. Companies have widely embraced the use of analytics to streamline operations and improve processes. The book explores all these critical emerging areas through the chapters in its five sections and is invaluable for management students and researchers, practicing business managers, consultants, professional institutions, and government and corporate organizations.

The demand for mobile broadband will continue to increase in upcoming years, largely driven by the need to deliver ultra-high definition video. 5G is not only evolutionary, it also provides higher bandwidth and lower latency than the current-generation technology. More importantly, 5G is revolutionary in that it is expected to enable fundamentally new applications with much more stringent requirements in latency and bandwidth. 5G should help solve the last-mile/last-kilometer problem and provide broadband access to the next billion users on earth at a much lower cost because of its use of new spectrum and its improvements in spectral efficiency. 5G wireless access networks will need to combine several innovative aspects of decentralized and centralized allocation looking to maximize performance and minimize signaling load. Research is currently conducted to understand the inspirations, requirements, and the promising technical options to boost and enrich activities in 5G. Design Methodologies and Tools for 5G Network Development and Application presents the enhancement methods of 5G communication, explores the methods for faster communication, and provides a promising alternative solution that equips designers with the capability to produce high performance, scalable, and adoptable communication protocol. This book provides complete design methodologies, supporting tools for 5G communication, and innovative works. The design and evaluation of different proposed 5G structures signal integrity, reliability, low-power techniques, application mapping, testing, and future trends. This book is ideal for researchers who are working in communication, networks, design and implementations, industry personnel, engineers, practitioners, academicians, and students who are interested in the evolution, importance, usage, and technology adoption for 5G applications.

The experiences of racial minorities in the United States education system remains a pivotal point of academic discourse. Academicians and researchers are concerned with the lived experiences of minority faculty of African, Latino, Asian, and Native American origins, particularly in predominantly White colleges and universities (PWCUs). Using critical race theory (CRT) and postcolonial studies, researchers may understand minority experiences through the backdrop of a history of slavery and European colonialism, and the enduring white hegemonic academic superstructure. Minority Voices From the Academic Superstructure explores the current state of minority experiences in academia while offering effective coping strategies through the lens of CRT principles and postcolonial theory. It calls for improved academic diversity and inclusion by pointing out educational underrepresentation. This book covers topics such as minorities in education, systemic racism, and educational administration and learning, and is a useful resource for academicians, education professionals, administrators, sociologists, historians, economists, researchers, and business owners.
