​This book examines connections between racism, violence, and social harms, along with the parts played by media actors and institutions in sustaining these phenomena. The chapters present instances of racism from numerous countries in connection with state violence, media coverage of harms and violence against racialised others, including Roma, Palestinians, Indigenous Australians, Maori, African Americans, Mexican Americans, Muslim peoples, Black people in Portugal, Middle-Eastern people in Australia, and asylum seekers. The chapters analyse ideology while paying attention to history and global context, tracing intersectional dynamics including nexuses of racism, class, and gender. They focus on various aspects of violence, including state, colonial and imperialist violence and ideological violence. The book is necessarily interdisciplinary, but explicitly anti-racist and attentive to resistances. It traverses criminology, sociology, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, mediastudies, history, and cognate fields.

In recent years, interest in Wireless Body Area Networks(WBANs) has increased significantly due to advancement in wireless communications. In wireless communication, all the nodes that monitor the human body¿s vital function information associated with WBANs transfer to the central sink node, which is directly connected to cognitive radio enabled controller called CRC. To transfer this information from CRC to e-health server, it requires long range available wireless networks like UMTS, LTE, WiMAX, WiFi and Satellite Internet provider etc.Now, it becomes a challenge for CRC to select the best networks for different WBANs data traffics such as EM (emergency mandatory), DS (delay sensitive) and GM (general monitoring), etc. This book investigates the schemes for best network selection from the available networks depending upon different QoS requirement for different WBAN applications. The different multiple attribute decision-making algorithms are used in the proposed schemes. Numerical results and discussion reveal that the proposed scheme is effective for a good network in the situation of conflict for different QoS requirement for different WBAN applications.
