This book is a comprehensive guide to understanding the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in improving business functions, as well as the limitations and challenges that come with its implementation. In this book, readers will learn about the various opportunities that AI presents in business, including how it can automate routine tasks, reduce errors, and increase efficiency. The book covers a range of topics, including how AI can be used in financial reporting, auditing, fraud detection, and tax preparation. However, the book also explores the limitations of AI in business, such...

Resource depletion and ecological risks are more than ever at the heart of societal and economic debates. In the 1970s, the developed countries saw the Fordist growth regime crumble in parallel with the growing awareness of the ecological issue. Since the first industrial revolutions, technological dynamics have been the cause of many environmental problems, and there is a consensus on the diagnosis. Integrated technologies reduce resource use and/or pollution at source by using cleaner production methods. This generally leads to a reduction in the by-products, energy inputs and resources...

This book aims to emphasize the state-of-the-art research in realizing the optimal synthesis of microgrid voltage regulation problems using adaptive multi-agent control theory. The contents of this book are divided into four parts. The book describes the microgrid voltage regulation model construction. Building upon this foundation, the book investigates fault-tolerant and event-triggered control problems under different constraints. The effectiveness and applicability of the design methods are verified by simulation arithmetic and applications.

This book aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between technology and business and its implications for future growth and innovation. In today's rapidly changing world, technology plays a crucial role in shaping the business landscape. Advancements in artificial intelligence, blockchain, data analytics, and automation have revolutionized how organizations operate, compete, and achieve success. Understanding the profound impact of technology on business is vital for entrepreneurs, managers, policymakers, and academics alike.

This book aims to explore the...

This book focuses on the transient performance implementation of Markov jump systems under state/output constraints, using the sliding mode control method. Both finite-time boundedness and input-output finite-time stability under engineering practice have been addressed, with weight placed on control theory and engineering practice. This is achieved by providing an in-depth study on several major topics such as fault-tolerant control, component-wise control, non-fragile control, security control, and hybrid control. The major features of the book include 1) providing a systematic and...

The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on business and society has been significant, with the incorporation of AI technologies such as robots, facial recognition, algorithms, and natural language processing into business leading to both corporate benefits and potential challenges for stakeholders. The question of how to engage in responsible business practices in the era of AI is an important one, and there is a need for more research on the relationship between AI and corporate social responsibility (CSR). As AI becomes more prevalent, there is a growing focus on the ethical...
