[Marshall] has been one of the long term leaders in the development of the framework for dynamic spectrum access networks and cognitive radio technology, giving him a historic as well as current perspective on the challenges. The insights in this book should be of enormous value to students, active researchers, wireless systems developers, and regulatory and policy leaders.' Dennis A. Roberson, Illinois Institute of Technology\u003cbr\u003e'… highly original and brilliantly insightful. Preston Marshall has examined cognitive technologies under three essential key headings - scalability, density and decision-making. In doing this he unlocks the power of cognitive technologies and builds a realisable and compelling vision for communication networks of the future. Every section … is full of new ideas and insights that could only be written by someone who has been a leader in this field and has a handle on the bigger picture as well as a deep understanding of the technical details. This book is so far removed from the myriad of books that simple relate information to the reader.

We will then look at how their implementation differs between in each of the Power Platform applications compared with traditional environments like .NET (Windows Forms and ASP.NET) and JavaScript. For Power Apps, we will see how you can set the properties of other objects directly but instead need to make the value of what you want to change (such as the text of a button) a variable and then change the value of that variable elsewhere in the application. We will also explore its Visual Basic-like syntax. In Power Automate, we will look at the different types of actions (variables, loop, parallel branches, conditions, etc.). Finally, in Power BI we will look at the Power Query M formula language.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 2.

We then read these lists from PowerApps to create a status display that we display in a tab in Teams. Finally, we create a Power Automate flow so that each time the status changes, we automatically post that to our Teams channel.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 15.

We also explore creating custom columns and filtering by Content Type.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 18. Joining SharePoint\/Excel Tables in Power BI\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  This chapter shows two different examples on how to join data in Power BI to make effective visualizations. The first example shows how to access lookup columns in SharePoint lists by doing a join on the lists once you bring them into Power BI. The second one is an extended example on how to verify data between two Excel spreadsheets that share a common value. We first show how to accomplish the task with Microsoft Access with a join query and a set of custom columns that reflect whether columns between the two spreadsheets actually match. We then show how it is easier and more reproducible with later data to do the same thing with Power BI using a merge query.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 19. Copying Microsoft Forms Answers to SharePoint using Power Automate and then Showing the Most Current Submission in Power BI\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn this chapter, we take a simple Microsoft Form, copy each entry to SharePoint with Power Automate, and then visualize the data in Power BI. The main insight on the Power BI side is to show only the most recent form submission by grouping within Power BI, creating a \u003ci\u003eMaxDate\u003c\/i\u003e column, and then filtering.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 20.

Ordinarily, humans have relied on economics and finance theories to make sense of, and predict concepts such as comparative advantage, long run economic growth, lack or distortion of information and failures, role of labour as a factor of production and the decision making process for the purpose of allocating resources among other theories. Of interest though is that literature has not attempted to utilize these advances in technology in order to modernize economic and finance theories that are fundamental in the decision making process for the purpose of allocating scarce resources among other things. With the simulated intelligence in machines, which allows machines to act like humans and to some extent even anticipate events better than humans, thanks to their ability to handle massive data sets, this book will use artificial intelligence to explain what these economic and finance theories mean in the context of the agent wanting to make a decision.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe main feature of finance and economic theories is that they try to eliminate the effects of uncertainties by attempting to bring the future to the present. The fundamentals of this statement is deeply rooted in risk and risk management. In behavioural sciences, economics as a discipline has always provided a well-established foundation for understanding uncertainties and what this means for decision making. Finance and economics have done this through different models which attempt to predict the future. On its part, risk management attempts to hedge or mitigate these uncertainties in order for “the planner” to reach the favourable outcome. This book focuses on how AI is to redefine certain important economic and financial theories that are specifically used for the purpose of eliminating uncertainties so as to allow agents to make informed decisions. In effect, certain aspects of finance and economic theories cannot be understood in their entirety without the incorporation of AI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction to Artificial Intelligence in Economics and Finance Theories.- The Growth Model.- Comparative Advantage.- The Dual-Sector Model.- Dynamic Inconsistency Theory.- The Philipps Curve.- The Laffer Curve.- Adverse Selection.- Moral Hazard.- Creative Destruction.- The Agency Theory.- The Legitimacy Theory and the Legitimacy Gap.-\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003eSynopsis: Artificial Intelligence in Finance and Economics Theories.- Index \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49415620493655,"sku":"9783030429645","price":123.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783030429645.jpg?v=1730527542"},{"product_id":"data-driven-mining-learning-and-analytics-for-secured-smart-cities-trends-and-advances-9783030721411","title":"Data-Driven Mining, Learning and Analytics for","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book provides information on data-driven infrastructure design, analytical approaches, and technological solutions with case studies for smart cities.
