Blockchain and artificial intelligence are perhaps the two most significant disruptive technologies this century and both will significantly rewire the world of global financial markets and the world in which we live. While blockchain offers a number of significant advantages over traditional forms of finance including lower cost and massive increases in operational efficiencies of traded markets, property records and a whole host of transaction processes, artificial intelligence is moving fast from basic structured machine learning doing menial yet important big data tasks like credit card fraud detection to predictive analysis and real-time real-world risk management and investment decision making. There is still a lot of confusion in the market about cryptocurrencies, bitcoin and the underlying blockchain technology. Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence highlights the underlying technologies of blockchain and the differences between cryptocurrencies and blockchain financial applications. It explores the current AI offerings and gives a vision of the fast-moving developments in this area including the many solutions that are expected to revolutionize the way financial and commodity markets will operate in the future.

Energy Decarbonized discusses the technologies that are helping to reduce Green House emissions and the energy sources of the future. It examines the future of regulatory structures and incentives that will help move the world toward a low carbon and eventually zero carbon economy. Financial and business professionals in the energy industry and those in project finance banks, investors, traders and economists as well as energy market regulators and policy makers will benefit from the in-depth discussions on GHG pricing and market mechanisms; the future of fossil fuels, oil, and LNG; and the potential of space-based power systems as a renewable energy alternative. Author Tom James has served as Senior Energy Advisor to the United States Department of Defense (TFBSO) and currently sits on the Financing Advisory Resources panel for Enterprise Singapore.

Žirafa chystá překvapení a zvířátka jí s chutí pomáhají. Pomůžeš i ty? Zatoč si veselým kolečkem.
