Technology-Mediated Crisis Response in Language Studies
The COVID-19 crisis was unplanned, unprecedented, and highly unpredictable, leading educators to rethink their pedagogies, policies, practices, technologies, strategies and more.In the months and years following, educational institutions were forced to adjust to new ways of doing their work, refinements with long-term implications for language learning and teaching.Much of the early research in language education which came about as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic focused on its negative effects, such as the lack of infrastructure and preparedness (Tao & Gao, 2022), (in)equitable access for educators and learners (Back, Zavala, & Franco, 2022), perceived lowered outcomes (Moser, Wei & Brenner, 2021), and emotional burdens (MacIntyre, Gregersen, & Mercer, 2020).In this volume, we capture some of the lessons learned during and as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in order to move forward as a field with intention and purpose, and to take advantage of any crisis-prompted innovation.The volume aims to provide implications for other current and future challenges and crises that require our attention in language teaching and technology.Contributions will bring additional depth to the pandemic discussion in each of the four parts: (1) Emergency Response, (2) Problem Solving, (3) Outcomes, and (4) By-Products.

Building Urban Resilience : Singapore’s Policy Response to Covid-19
This is one of the first few books to discuss the Covid-19 crisis as an urban phenomenon and illustrates this through the case of Singapore and its pandemic response efforts. The book describes the implications and impacts of the pandemic on Singapore’s urban landscape, economy, and society.It also assesses the urban interventions that have emerged in response to the pandemic.It examines the spatial implications and challenges of delineating safe distancing in various public and commercial spaces and evaluates the effectiveness of these interventions.The book also explains how Singapore’s smart city capabilities help with its Covid-19 response. This book will be of great interest to urban planners, healthcare professionals, and policymakers across the world, particularly those who are hoping to learn from the success and limitations of Singapore’s Covid-19 responses.

What does it mean that no response is also a response?
When no response is given, it can still convey a message or signal a lack of interest or agreement. It may indicate disapproval, indifference, or a desire to avoid confrontation. In some cases, choosing not to respond can be a deliberate strategy to communicate a message indirectly. Therefore, it is important to consider the context and relationship dynamics when interpreting the meaning of no response.

What is the transfer function for the ramp response and the impulse response?
The transfer function for the ramp response is given by H(s) = 1/s^2, where s is the Laplace variable. This transfer function represents a second-order system with a pole at the origin. On the other hand, the transfer function for the impulse response is H(s) = 1, which represents a first-order system with no poles. The ramp response is used to analyze the steady-state behavior of a system, while the impulse response is used to analyze the transient behavior.

Why are response time and response rate no longer visible on eBay Kleinanzeigen?
Response time and response rate are no longer visible on eBay Kleinanzeigen because the platform has shifted its focus towards promoting a more user-friendly experience for both buyers and sellers. By removing these metrics, eBay Kleinanzeigen aims to reduce the pressure on users to respond quickly and instead encourages more meaningful interactions. This change also aligns with the platform's goal of fostering a sense of community and trust among its users, rather than solely focusing on transactional aspects.

What is the difference between non-specific immune response and specific immune response?
The non-specific immune response, also known as innate immunity, is the body's first line of defense against pathogens. It includes physical barriers like the skin, as well as cellular and chemical defenses such as inflammation and phagocytosis. This response is not targeted to a specific pathogen and does not provide long-term immunity. On the other hand, the specific immune response, also known as adaptive immunity, is a targeted response to a specific pathogen. It involves the activation of T and B lymphocytes, which produce antibodies and memory cells that provide long-term immunity against a particular pathogen. This response is highly specific and has memory, allowing the body to mount a faster and more effective response upon subsequent exposure to the same pathogen.

Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters : Preparedness, Response, and Recovery
POWER GRID RESILIENCE AGAINST NATURAL DISASTERS How to protect our power grids in the face of extreme weather events The field of structural and operational resilience of power systems, particularly against natural disasters, is of obvious importance in light of climate change and the accompanying increase in hurricanes, wildfires, tornados, frigid temperatures, and more.Addressing these vulnerabilities in service is a matter of increasing diligence for the electric power industry, and as such, targeted studies and advanced technologies are being developed to help address these issues generally—whether they be from the threat of cyber-attacks or of natural disasters.Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters provides, for the first time, a comprehensive and systematic introduction to resilience-enhancing planning and operation strategies of power grids against extreme events.It addresses, in detail, the three necessary steps to ensure power grid success: the preparedness prior to natural disasters, the response as natural disasters unfold, and the recovery after the event.Crucially, the authors put forward state-of-the-art methods towards improving today’s practices in managing these three arenas.Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters readers will also find: Data, tables, and illustrations to supplement and clarify the points put forward in each chapter Case studies on realistic power systems and industry standards and practices related to the topics covered Potential to be a supplementary text in advanced level power engineering courses Power Grid Resilience against Natural Disasters will be of interest to specialists and engineers, as well as planners and operators from industry.It can also be a useful resource for senior undergraduate students, postgraduate students, researchers, and research libraries.More, it will appeal to all readers with a strong background in power system analysis, operation and control, optimization methods, the Markov decision process, and probability and statistics.

What is a response delay?
A response delay refers to the time it takes for a system or individual to react or respond to a stimulus or input. This delay can be caused by various factors such as processing time, network latency, or physical limitations. In some cases, a response delay can impact the effectiveness or efficiency of a system or communication process. Reducing response delays is important in ensuring smooth and timely interactions in various contexts.

What is heightened startle response?
Heightened startle response is an exaggerated reaction to a sudden or unexpected stimulus, such as a loud noise or a sudden movement. People with a heightened startle response may react more intensely and quickly than others, often experiencing increased heart rate, sweating, and feelings of fear or anxiety. This heightened reaction can be a symptom of various mental health conditions, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or anxiety disorders. Treatment for heightened startle response may involve therapy, medication, and relaxation techniques to help manage the exaggerated response.
