This book presents algorithms and tools that are designed to model and extract information from personal contact networks, which represent which individuals in a population are physically in contact with one another. The authors developed these tools based on research they conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the goal of improving responses to epidemics in the future. The book provides methods for modelling the transmission of infection across a population. The authors explain how an epidemic model can be used to strategically distribute vaccines and minimize the spread of a virus. The book shows how evolutionary computation, graph compression, and network induction can be utilized to manage issues that arise from an epidemic.

Find out not only which position will take the strain off your body, but also whether your mattress and pillow are helping or hindering your recovery. It tells you the worst possible position for you to sleep in, wherever your pain is centered.

About the BookHaving been motivated by the movie short, Billy was anxious to show his friend Wayne how he was capable of running the mile in times near that shown on the screen.They biked to the track. Billy took off his shirt and did some stretches and short warm up runs. When he was ready, he told Wayne to start him.Wayne looked at his watch and gave him the go signal and Billy was off. He ran the first lap (400 meters) and looked strong. By the middle of the second lap, he started to slow down. The slowdown continued into the third lap. By the fourth lap, he was barely running and halfway through the lap he was just walking."If you finish in the next 20 seconds you will have done six minutes and 30 seconds," Wayne yelled, laughing."Kiss my ass. You were right; it does take a different kind of conditioning," Billy responded while gasping for air. "But six minutes and 30 seconds for the mile is a starting point for me, I guess.""Guess again, my future track star. You ran only 1,600 meters, you need to add another nine meters to make a mile. There are 1609 meters in a mile," Wayne offered, laughing.About the AuthorAs a change from his usual genre in previous stories James Hughes wanted to write a feel-good story of friendship and life as it unfolds. Calling on old memories and some history, he tells the story of friendship between two young men who had come from significantly different lifestyles. The story tells how they were able to overcome their differences not by changing each other, but by understanding and appreciating their differences. Their humor was always a significant part of their relationship. They were able to hold on to their friendship even when separated by time and distance.

Bibliolatry: An Essay (1862) is a work by James Hughes that explores the concept of bibliolatry, or the worship of books. In this essay, Hughes argues that the excessive veneration of the Bible, or any other book, can be detrimental to one's spiritual growth and understanding of religion. He examines the historical and cultural roots of bibliolatry, as well as its impact on religious practices and beliefs. Hughes also offers a critique of the literal interpretation of scripture and advocates for a more nuanced and contextual approach to religious texts. This book is a thought-provoking exploration of the role of books in religion and the potential dangers of their worship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

TwistedBy: James HughesPutting on a hoodie and grabbing her purse and the briefcase, Alina (one of her names) went into the hall and to the exit stairs. She waited listening before proceeding down. Were they going to take the stairs or the elevator? Hearing no sound in the stairway, she went down one level and listened, still no sound. She proceeded all the way to the basement. Exiting the stairway, she found a door that led to a trash loading zone in the rear. Exiting slowly, she looked for the car in front. It was still there. A short walk parallel to the street led to an alley back to the main street. If she could get to the all-night drug store on the corner, she would call a taxi. The taxi ride would take her to a destination fraught with complications, but it seemed the only alternative.About the AuthorWhile professional authors write for a living and to gain recognition, the author, James Hughes, writes for his personal enjoyment. It is a form of mental gymnastics that fills a need to express himself in the guise of a story. When the kernel of an idea surfaces in his mind he ponders the idea for some time, writing it first in his mind. If it gets traction cerebrally, then he begins to think of story structure and how it should begin. The imagined ending that prompted the story initially now requires him to proceed in order to achieve the desired ending. The beginning of the story initiates the path he will follow, always with an eye on reaching the destination. A chance online meeting prompted this story.

Misguided RetributionBy: James HughesOn the third date, Marlene and the seemingly charming Sheldon Wilson go back to her home for coffee after dinner. Marlene finishes making coffee when he grabs Marlene, kisses her, and says they belong together. When Marlene says it's much too early to commit to a lasting relationship, he is quick to anger and accuses Marlene of leading him on. Finally, Marlene convinces him to leave, telling him she needed time to think, but really, she just needed to get him to leave.Was Sheldon Wilson in his car or still prowling around outside looking for a way to get in? He had pounded first on her front door begging to come in and talk. All they needed to do was talk. He could explain his actions the previous night was his plea. Next he pounded on the back kitchen door and Marleen hurried to make sure it was locked. The same pleading when she refused to open the door had become a threat. "I will make you sorry for this." She called the police.Bill Sayers and Mary Ellen Withers would be fascinated by Marleen Hilton's night of terror and the strange set of events that follow in Misguided Retribution.About the AuthorAs a retired engineer, James Hughes had been limited in his work writing technical papers and analyses. Unnecessary filler or texture was discouraged in those writings. Now free to expand his writing, he could add as much descriptive material as he felt necessary to advance the story. He always strives to limit narrative that was not relative, just tell the story. He particularly enjoyed writing dialogue, creating the back and forth between individuals. If the characters were properly described, then the dialog that flowed between them would proceed logically. As a fan of O'Henrys writing, he liked to interject twists or surprises in a story and always attempted to do so.
