Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface-Enabled Integrated Sensing and Communication in 6G (Wireless Networks)
by Xiaoling Hu Chenxi Liu Mugen Peng Caijun ZhongAs the main trend and key enabling technology for next-generation wireless networks (i.e., 6G), integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) can effectively improve spectrum efficiency, hardware efficiency, and information processing efficiency. However, it faces several deficiencies, including limited coverage due to high-frequency signals and limited communication-sensing performance due to uncontrollable wireless environments. Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) provides novel dimensions to address these deficiencies by intelligently manipulating the wireless propagation environment in an energy- and hardware-efficient manner. RIS-enabled ISAC is expected to comprehensively promote the multi-dimensional performance of 6G, such as communication capacity, sensing accuracy, and coverage. Nevertheless, to fully realize its potential, one needs to figure out the impacts of RIS on joint communication and sensing performance and tackle new technical challenges in beamforming design and signal processing. The goal of this book, therefore, is to deliver a thorough understanding of RIS-enabled ISAC from three perspectives: performance analysis, beamforming design, and signal processing. Specifically, the authors provide a brief introduction to RIS-enabled ISAC, including basic concepts, motivations, potential application scenarios, and an overview of the state-of-the-art research on RIS-enabled ISAC. The theoretical performance analytical frameworks of RIS-enabled ISAC and their corresponding results are also discussed. Based on this, several critical issues are identified and elaborated on, including signal processing technologies such as angle and Delay-Doppler information acquisition, and air interface technologies such as beamforming designs. Finally, the book concludes with future trends and open issues for further research.The book would be beneficial for researchers, graduate students, and industry professionals who wish to gain a comprehensive understanding of the latest developments and challenges in RIS-enabled ISAC. By providing insights into the potential of RIS-enabled ISAC and the technical challenges that need to be addressed, the book can aid in the development of practical solutions for next-generation wireless networks and contribute to the advancement of the field of wireless communications.

Regulierung, Governance und Medienethik in der digitalen Gesellschaft (Mediensymposium)
by Marlis Prinzing Josef Seethaler Mark Eisenegger Patrik EttingerUnsere stark von netzbasierten und global verflochtenen Machtstrukturen geprägten Gesellschaften offenbaren angesichts globaler Herausforderungen und Krisen (u.a. menschengemachter Klimawandel; Corona-Pandemie; Big Data und Überwachung) ungelöste Fragen zu Ethik und Regulierung der öffentlichen Kommunikation, zu deren Klärung die Kommunikations- und Medienwissenschaft einiges beitragen kann. Die Pandemie beispielsweise ist unter anderem eine kommunikative Herausforderung, an der sich die prägende Bedeutung eines ethischen Kompasses für die Orientierung und Qualität von Journalismus erweist. Für demokratische Gesellschaften bleibt der öffentliche Diskurs zwar konstitutiv, aber zugleich gewinnt die Fähigkeit, mit Dissonanz und Streit umzugehen, immer mehr an Bedeutung. Die Beiträge des Bands befassen sich mit Theoriebildung und Normsetzung, Regulierungs- und Governancestrukturen, Regulierungsinhalten und Regulierungsherausforderungen, sowie mit Überlegungen zu einer Neujustierung der Kommunikations- und Medienethik.
The Review Response Genre: Structures, Language, and Functions
by Victor HoExpanding the scope of the metadiscourse construct, Ho offers a comprehensive analysis of the online review response genre using hotel managers' responses to negative reviews posted by dissatisfied customers on TripAdvisor. He adopts a robust research methodology that involves both quantitative and qualitative analyses of three different types of data: managerial responses to negative comments, questionnaire responses from dissatisfied customers who wrote the reviews, and interview responses from hotel managers who wrote the responses. By drawing upon the genre theory and the construct of rapport and metadiscourse, the analysis shows that hotel management’s attempts at service recovery can be materialized through the move structures of the managerial responses, and the strategies used in managing rapport with dissatisfied customers and in persuading both existing and potential customers to purchase accommodation services from the hotels. An essential reading for students and researchers of pragmatics and professional communication, along with anyone interested in the role of language in persuading customers, neutralizing criticisms, and managing interpersonal relationships, particularly in the context of open forums online.

Rewriting, Manipulation and Translator Subjectivity: Translating Chinese Literature in a Global Context (Palgrave Studies in Translating and Interpreting)
by Hu LiuThis book presents an in-depth analysis of Howard Goldblatt’s translation of Mo Yan’s Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out (L&D). It explores how Goldblatt translates the original novel under the influence of three major manipulative powers: poetics, ideology and patronage, as well as his own subjectivity (translator subjectivity), to achieve his objectives as a literary translator. The author analyses both the translation and its paratext to gain a more complete understanding of Goldblatt’s accomplishments, and examines how Goldblatt rewrites the original text under the influence of various patronage factors, such as the original author, publisher, editor, market expectancy, literary collaborator, and the target reader. This book provides a comprehensive picture of the production, reception and dissemination of Goldblatt’s translation, exposing the motivations behind his translation in full measure, and it will be of interest to students and scholars of Translation Studies, Comparative Literature and Literary Studies, and Chinese Culture and Literature.
Roman Liturgy and Frankish Creativity: The Early Medieval Manuscripts of the Ordines Romani (Cambridge Studies in Palaeography and Codicology)
by null Arthur WestwellThis incisive, in-depth study unearths the significance of a neglected group of early medieval manuscripts, those which transmit the Ordines Romani. These texts present detailed scripts for Christian ceremonies that narrate the gestures, motions, actions and settings of ritual performance, with particular orientation to the Roman church. While they are usually understood as liturgical, and thus lacking any particular creative flair, Arthur Westwell here foregrounds their manuscript permutations in order to reveal their extraordinary dynamism. He reflects on how the Carolingian Church undertook to improve liturgical practice and understanding, questioning the accepted idea of a “reform” aimed at uniformity led by the monarch. Through these manuscripts, Westwell reveals a diversity of motivations in the recording of Roman liturgy and demonstrates the remarkable sophistication of Carolingian manuscript compilers.

The Routledge Handbook of Cultural Legal Studies
by Karen Crawley Thomas Giddens Timothy D PetersThis handbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the cutting-edge field of cultural legal studies.Cultural legal studies is at the forefront of the legal discipline, questioning not only doctrine or social context, but how the concerns of legality are distributed and encountered through a range of material forms. Growing out of the interdisciplinary turn in critical legal studies and jurisprudence that took place in the latter quarter of the 20th century, cultural legal studies exists at the intersection of a range of traditional disciplinary areas: legal studies, cultural studies, literary studies, jurisprudence, media studies, critical theory, history, and philosophy. It is an area of study that is characterised by an expanded or open-ended conception of what ‘counts’ as a legal source, and that is concerned with questions of authority, legitimacy, and interpretation across a wide range of cultural artefacts. Including a mixture of established and new authors in the area, this handbook brings together a complex set of perspectives that are representative of the current field, but which also address its methods, assumptions, limitations, and possible futures.Establishing the significance of the cultural for understanding law, as well as its importance as a potential site for justice, community, and sociality in the world today, this handbook is a key reference point both for those working in the cultural legal context – in legal theory, law and literature, law and film/television, law and aesthetics, cultural studies, and the humanities generally – as well as others interested in the interactions between authority, culture, and meaning.
