An Introduction to Quantum Optics

This book is a selected collection of my lecture notes on quantum optics for my PhD thesis students and for an introductory-level graduate course at the University of Maryland. My students and colleagues encouraged me to publish these lecture notes as a textbook or reference book that might be helpful in understanding the quantum theory of light from a relatively elementary, introductory lev…

Advances in Biometrics for Secure Human Authentication and Recognition

The uniqueness of the physiological and behavioral characteristics of human beings is used to facilitate the identification or verification process, and it always results in correct classification. However, the distinctive evidence obtained from an individual does not guarantee a 100% matching be performed to the biometric characteristics corresponding another subject, even after considering al…

A First Course in Loop Quantum Gravity

In our current understanding, there exist four fundamental interactions in nature: electromagnetism, weak interactions, strong interactions, and gravity. Everyone is familiar with electromagnetism. Weak interactions are involved in the decay of nuclei. Strong interactions keep nuclei together. The rules of quantum mechanics have been applied to elec- tromagnetism, the weak and strong interactio…

Practical Hadoop Security

Last year, I was designing security for a client who was looking for a reference book that talked about security implementations in the Hadoop arena, simply so he could avoid known issues and pitfalls. To my chagrin, I couldn’t locate a single book for him that covered the security aspect of Hadoop in detail or provided options for people who were planning to secure their clusters holding sen…

Mac at Work

Why Mac at Work? Because everyone needs an advantage. A few years ago, I spoke at the American Bar Association’s technology conference about how I use my Mac to run circles around other lawyers. This conference happens once a year and is ground zero for cutting-edge legal technology. When I started talking to these Mac lawyers, however, their ugly secret was revealed: although they were usi…

Total Lion Superguide

The last time Apple updated the Mac operating system—2009’s Snow Leopard release—the most noteworthy changes happened under the hood. That’s not the case with Lion, the next major version of Mac OS X. Apple has gradually pulled back the curtain on a pretty significant shift for the Mac OS, influenced in large part by Apple’s mobile operating system, iOS. Lion’s big changes naturall…

Information Storage and Management

Information storage is a central pillar of information technology. A large quantity of digital information is being created every moment by individual and corporate consumers of IT. This information needs to be stored, protected, optimized, and managed. Not long ago, information storage was seen as only a bunch of disks or tapes attached to the back of the computer to store data. Even today, o…

Balanced Automation Systems

The concept. Manufacturing industries worldwide are facing tough challenges as a consequence of the globalization of economy and the openness of the markets. Progress of the economic blocks such as the European Union, NAFTA, and MERCOSUR, and the global agreements such as GATT, in addition to their obvious economic and social consequences, provoke strong paradigm shifts in the way that the manu…

Quantitative easing as a highway to hyperinflation

In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, the European crisis and the recessions associated with these crises, one tends to think that the risk of deflation is greater than the risk of inflation as things stand at the end of 2012. This is a valid argument insofar as demand-pull factors and cost-push factors are associated with economic booms, when there is unutilized capacity in the econ…
