Recent advancements in nanotechnology (NT) materials and growth of micro/
nanotechnology have opened the door for potential applications of microelectro-
mechanical systems (MEMS)- and NT-based sensors and devices. Such sensors and
devices are best suited for communications, medical diagnosis, commercial, military,
aerospace, and satellite applications. This book comes at a time when the future and
well-being of Western industrial nations in the twenty-first century’s global eco-
nomy increasingly depend on the quality and depth of the technological innovations
they can commercialize at a rapid pace.

Since the 1990s the EU has been pursuing climate change mitigation targets. Following the
international commitment to the legally binding greenhouse gas reduction under the Kyoto
Protocol, the 2020 policy package consists of a set of binding legislation to ensure that the EU
meets its climate and energy targets for the year 2020. The package sets three key targets: 20%
reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (from 1990 levels), 20% of EU energy from renewables (as
well as a 10% target for renewable fuels) and 20% improvement in energy efficiency. The targets
were set by EU leaders in 2007 and enacted in legislation in 2009 3 . They are also headline targets of
the Europe 2020 strategy for smart, sustainable and inclusive growth.

Over the past few decades there has been an exponential growth in service robots
and smart home technologies, which has led to the development of exciting new
products in our daily lives. Service robots can be used to provide domestic aid for
the elderly and disabled, serving various functions ranging from cleaning to enter-
tainment. Service robots are divided by functions, such as personal robots, field
robots, security robots, healthcare robots, medical robots, rehabilitation robots and
entertainment robots. A smart home appears “intelligent” because its embedded
computers can monitor so many aspects of the daily lives of householders. For
example, the refrigerator may be able to monitor its contents, suggest healthy alter-
natives and order groceries. Also, the smart home system may be able to clean the
house and water the plants.

This chapter surveys the high temperature and oxygen partial pressure
behavior of complex oxide heterostructures as determined by in situ synchrotron
X-ray methods. We consider both growth and post-growth behavior, emphasizing
the observation of structural and interfacial defects relevant to the size-dependent
properties seen in these systems.

Modern power systems involve large amount of investment. An electric power
system comprises of generation, transmission, and distribution of electric energy.
Growth of power systems has led to very complex networks extended across large
areas. In such situations, the proper functioning of a modern power system is
heavily dependent upon the healthy operation of the transmission lines within it.
Transmission lines are used to transmit a huge amount of power over a long
distance. But as these lines are located in the open atmosphere, they are highly
affected by different types of abnormal conditions or faults.

The rapid growth of RFID use in various supply chain operations, which has
arisen from the development of Electronic Product Code (EPC) technology,
has created a need for the consideration of security issues in the adoption of that
technology.

adio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a rapidly developing automatic wireless data-collection
technology with a long history.The first multi-bit functional passive RFID systems,with a range of
several meters, appeared in the early 1970s, and continued to evolve through the 1980s. Recently,
RFID has experienced a tremendous growth,due to developments in integrated circuits and radios,
and due to increased interest from the retail industrial and government.

With the continued growth in the world's population, there is a need to ensure availability of
enough food to feed everyone. Advances in science and technology have helped not only to
increase food production, but also to reduce food wastage. However, the latter has the
potential to be improved to a significant extent through appropriate matching of supply and
demand, and with proper handling during storage and transit. Given the amount of food
wastage that occurs after a food item leaves the “farm” on its way to the “fork,” and the
availability of means to reduce such wastage, there really is no excuse for feigned ignorance.

Modern information technologies and the advent of machines powered by artificial
intelligence (AI) have already strongly influenced the world of work in the 21st century.
Computers, algorithms and software simplify everyday tasks, and it is impossible
to imagine how most of our life could be managed without them. However, is it
also impossible to imagine how most process steps could be managed without
human force? The information economy characterised by exponential growth
replaces the mass production industry based on economy of scales
