Fractals and Real Dynamical Systems
This book contains the English version of a one-semester undergraduate course through the medium of Irish.I have given this course in Maynooth each year since 2006.The class is typically quite mixed, and the book aims to challenge students familiar with rigorous arguments while simultaneously providing comfort to other students that prefer procedural mathematics---not an easy balancing act!For instance, some exercises are targeted at one or other of these two groups of students and, while some material is done in the context of metric spaces, guidance is given to the reader who prefers to stick to the real line.This second edition of the book has no major new topics, but it is about twice as long as the first.Some topics are explored in greater depth (e.g. conjugacy and semiconjugacy, bifurcation) and some proofs have been added (notably for Sharkovsky's and Singer's theorems).Additional exercises have been given, and the most challenging ones are marked appropriately.

Systems and Systems Thinking
The purpose of this book is to augment a basic reference to define and evaluate the phenomena and events in the world and to perceive them with a system perspective.Nurturing this reference point with the extend of different scientific disciplines would support its explanation and identification ability. In this book, we tried to substantiate this argument by ligurating different disciplines that make up the system view.In the first part of the book, we tried to define the formation of systems thinking within philosophy and logic.In the following parts, we have defined the forms of system thinking, the basic tools and the usage areas of these tools.We worked on practical applications possible in the departments and an exemplary place for these applications. The target audience of this book is people who are curious about understanding the world from all areas.We hope that the book will help the reader perceive the world as a system and help view complex systems vitally.The information provided by the authors with all kinds of selection experience and academic background has been carefully selected to bring the reader to this goal. Good readings...

Heterogeneous Cyber Physical Systems of Systems
Cyber-physical systems are the natural extension of the so-called “Internet of Things”.They are “systems of collaborating computational elements controlling physical entities”.Cyber Physical Systems of Systems (CPSoS) are considered “The Next Computing Revolution” after Mainframe computing (60’s-70’s), Desktop computing & Internet (80’s-90’s) and Ubiquitous computing (00’s); because all aspects of daily life are rapidly evolving towards humans interacting amongst themselves as well as their environment via computational devices (often mobile), and because in most cases systems will employ their computational capabilities to interact amongst themselves.CPSoS enable the physical world to merge with the cyber one.Using sensors, the embedded systems monitor and collect data from physical processes, such as the steering of a vehicle, energy consumption or human health functions.The systems are networked making the data globally available.CPSoS make it possible for software applications to directly interact with events in the physical world, for example to measure and react to changes in blood pressure or peaks in energy consumption.Embedded hardware and software systems crucially expand the functionality and competitiveness of vehicles, aircraft, medical equipment, production plants and household appliances.Connecting these systems to a virtual environment of globally networked services and information systems opens completely new areas of innovation and novel business platforms. Future CPSoS will have many sophisticated, interconnected parts that must instantaneously exchange, parse, and act on detailed data in a highly coordinated manner.Continued advances in science and engineering will be necessary to enable advances in design and development of these complex systems.Multi- scale, multi-layer, multi-domain, and multi-system integrated infrastructures will require new foundations in system science and engineering.Scientists and engineers with an understanding of otherwise physical systems will need to work in tandem with computer and information scientists to achieve effective, workable designs.In this tutorial, basic and advanced issues on the design of the future heterogeneous CPSoS are presented including relevant Blockchain technologies, reconfigurable systems, advanced sensor interfaces and human-centered design processes.Certain advanced tools for the design and implementation of the cyber parts of the CPSoS (i.e.FPGA design tools from Xilinx) are also covered.

Are stereo systems or 5.1 systems better?
It ultimately depends on the individual's preferences and needs. Stereo systems are great for simple, two-channel audio playback and can provide high-quality sound for music and movies. On the other hand, 5.1 systems offer a more immersive experience with surround sound, making them ideal for home theater setups and gaming. If you prioritize a more immersive and spatial audio experience, a 5.1 system may be better for you. However, if you value simplicity and high-quality audio, a stereo system may be the better choice.

Why are photovoltaic systems called photovoltaic systems?
Photovoltaic systems are called photovoltaic systems because they directly convert light (photo) into electricity (voltaic). The term "photo" comes from the Greek word for light, and "voltaic" is derived from the name of the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta, who is known for his work in electricity. Therefore, the term "photovoltaic" accurately describes the process by which these systems generate electricity from sunlight.

Why are Android systems supported less than Apple iOS systems?
Android systems are supported less than Apple iOS systems for a few reasons. First, the Android ecosystem is more fragmented, with a wide variety of devices and versions of the operating system in use, making it more challenging for developers to create and maintain consistent support. Additionally, Apple has a more controlled and centralized approach to its hardware and software, allowing for more seamless updates and support. Finally, Apple has a reputation for prioritizing user experience and security, which may lead to more consistent and timely support for iOS systems compared to Android.

How do you solve real-life situations using systems of equations?
Systems of equations can be used to solve real-life situations by representing different unknown quantities with variables and then setting up equations to describe the relationships between these quantities. For example, if you are trying to determine the cost of buying multiple items of different prices, you can use a system of equations to represent the total cost and the quantity of each item. By solving the system of equations, you can find the values of the variables that satisfy all the given conditions. This allows you to find the solution to the real-life problem, such as the total cost of the items. Overall, systems of equations provide a powerful tool for modeling and solving complex real-life situations involving multiple unknowns and relationships.
