Security solutions have .focused on filtering out malicious payloads and weblinksfrom email; the potential dangers of email go past these boundaries: harmless-looking emails can carry dangerous, hidden botnet content. In this paper, we evaluate the suitability ofemail communicationf...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are attracting attention from the research community. One of the key issues is to provide them with privacy protection. In recent years, a huge amount of contributions has been focused on this area. Surveys and literature reviews have also been produced to give a systematic view of the different approaches taken. However, no previous work has focused on privacy m...

Transportation network companies provide an increasingly significant share of mobility, which has prompted interest in curbing greenhouse gas emissions the ride-hailing sector. Vehicle electrification offers possibility vast reductions, but a number factors are thought to constrain this transition. We investigate two such – battery electric vehicle (BEV) range and total cost ownership from 2019...

Biological invasions and land-use changes are two major causes of the global modifications of biodiversity. Habitat suitability models are the tools of choice to predict potential distributions of invasive species. Although land-use is a key driver of alien species invasions, it is often assumed that land-use is constant in time. Here we combine historical and present day information, to evalua...

There are three main objectives of this monograph: (i) to provide an introduction to geographical information technology along with an historical perspective on the evolving role of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in planning, (ii) to overview relevant methods and techniques for GISbased land-use suitability mapping and modeling, and (iii) to identify the trends, challenges and prospects o...
