Cities worldwide are at a crossroads, facing the pressing need to adapt to a rapidly changing environment. The impacts of climate change, economic shifts, and population growth are undeniable, demanding a paradigm shift in urban development. The conventional approaches fall short in creating spaces that endure and flourish in the face of adversity. The challenge is to reimagine cities as more than concrete jungles, integrating green spaces, flexibility, and community well-being into their DNA. Insights on Resiliency and Urban Development charts the course for a resilient urban future. In its pages, government leaders, architects, urban planners, and citizens unite to forge a comprehensive guide for developing urban 'sanctuaries.' This book seamlessly weaves together disciplines like architecture, urban design, planning, sustainability, and community development, offering not just theoretical groundwork but practical strategies illustrated with vibrant case studies. It empowers individuals with the knowledge to build cities that not only withstand the challenges of our time but actively thrive amidst them.

Grid Computing requires the use of software that can divide and farm out pieces of a program to as many as several thousand computers. This book explores processes and techniques needed to create a successful Grid infrastructure. Leading researchers in Europe and the US look at the development of specialist tools and environments which will encourage the convergence of the parallel programming, distributed computing and data management communities. Specific topics covered include: An overview of structural and behavioural properties of Computer Grid applications Discussion of alternative programming techniques Case studies displaying the potential of Computer Grids in solving real problems This book is unique in its outline of the needs of Computational Grids both in integration of high-end resources using OGSA/Globus, and the loose integration of Peer-2-Peer/Entropia/United Devices. Readers will gain an insight on the limitations of existing approaches as well as the standardisation activities currently taking place.
