EL CONCEPTO DE pensamiento sistémico es muy simple. Consiste en tratar los sistemas como un todo distinto de sus partes. Es difícil encontrar a alguien que niegue la esencia sistémica de casi todo en la naturaleza. Que un ecosistema es un sistema en equilibrio se aprende a edades muy tempranas. Y que una acción, aparentemente inocua, sobre una de sus partes, puede romper el equilibrio del ecosistema, alterándolo por completo, es algo que hemos aprendido a la fuerza, y es también algo de cultura general.

Desde que Henry Ford revolucionó el mundo de la manufactura con su segmentación del trabajo, la especificidad en las tareas ha ido en aumento. Existe una alta especialización en todos los sectores y se ha instaurado la máxima de que, para ser eficiente, el trabajo tiene que ser autónomo, desarrollarse en paralelo y funcionar de manera simultánea. Sin duda, la segmentación del trabajo permitió optimizar infinidad de procesos en el pasado. Pero hoy, en un mundo interconectado y dinámico, se hace difícil mantener esas lógicas estancas. Cada vez es más necesario entender los procesos productivos de una manera global y sistémica. Y plantearlos, en lugar de como una suma de partes, como un conglomerado entrelazado, donde los vínculos y las sinergias entre actores se erigen como más relevantes que los propios actores. En este libro, Matías Birrell actualiza la teoría de sistemas, planteada desde el MIT durante las últimas décadas del siglo pasado, y la integra con la teoría de las restricciones (TOC) de Goldratt, para aplicar sus conclusiones en el siglo XXI. Su propuesta se opone al axioma de que hay que segmentar una empresa para poder gobernarla y nos anima a entender que una mirada global permite un grado de sincronización que no persigue optimizar procesos concretos, sino fomentar una cultura colaborativa y sinérgica que constituye los pilares de un modelo empresarial cibernético; donde todo está interconectado y aceptemos, de una vez por todas, que las partes son inevitablemente interdependientes del sistema. Solo de esa manera podremos dejar de estar anclados en el pasado para imaginar las empresas del futuro.

Phosphorus in Environmental Technology: Principles and Applications, provides a definitive and detailed presentation of state-of-the-art knowledge on the environmental behaviour of phosphorus and its applications to the treatment of waters and soils. Special attention is given to phosphorus removal for recovery technologies, a concept that has emerged over the past 5-6 years. The book features an all-encompassing approach: the fundamental science of phosphorus (chemistry, geochemistry, mineralogy, biology), key aspects of its environmental behaviour and mobility, industrial applications (treatment, removal, recovery) and the principles behind such applications, novel biotechnologies and, importantly, it also addresses socio-economic issues which often influence implementation and the ultimate success of any new technology. A detailed subject index helps the reader to find their way through the different scientific and technological aspects covered, making it an invaluable reference work for students, professionals and consultants dealing with phosphorus-related environmental technologies. State-of-the-art knowledge on the behaviour of phosphorus and its applications to environmental science and technology. Covers all aspects of phosphorus in the environment, engineered and biological systems; an interdisciplinary text.

On a mountainside in sunny Tuscany, in October 1989, 96 people from 23 countries on five continents gathered to learn and teach about the problems of managing contemporary science. The diversity of economic and political systems represented in the group was matched by our occupations, which stretched from science policy practitioners, through research scientists and engineers, through academic observers of science and science policy. It was this diversity, along with the opportunities for infonnal discussion provided by long meals and remote location, that made the conference a special learning experience. Except at lecture time, it was impossible to distinguish the "students" at this event from the "teachers," and even the most senior members of the teaching staff went away with a sense that they had learned more from this group than from many a standard conference on science policy they had attended. The flavor of the conference experience cannot be captured adequately in a proceedings volume, and so we have not tried to create a historical record in this book. Instead, we have attempted to illustrate the core problems the panicipants at the conference shared, discussed, and debated, using both lectures delivered by the fonnal teaching staff and summaries of panel discussions, which extended to other panicipants and therefore increased the range of experiences reponed.

Serverless computing is radically changing the way we build and deploy applications. With cloud providers running servers and managing machine resources, companies now can focus solely on the application’s business logic and functionality. This hands-on book shows experienced programmers how to build and deploy scalable machine learning and deep learning models using serverless architectures with Microsoft Azure. You’ll learn step-by-step how to code machine learning into your projects using Python and pretrained models that include tools such as image recognition, speech recognition, and classification. You’ll also examine issues around deployment and continuous delivery, including scaling, security, and monitoring. This book is divided into three parts with application examples woven throughout: Cloud-based development: Learn the basics of serverless computing with machine learning, Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS), and the use of APIs Adding intelligence: Create serverless applications using Azure Functions; learn how to use prebuilt machine learning and deep learning models Deployment and continuous delivery: Get up to speed with Azure Kubernetes Service, Azure Security Center, and Azure Monitoring
