    Abstract: The field of music production has for many years been regarded as male-dominated. Despite growing acknowledgement of this fact, and some evidence of diversification, it is clear that gender representation on the whole remains quite unbalanced. Gender in Music Production brings together industry leaders, practitioners, and academics to present and analyze the situation of gender within the wider context of music production as well as to propose potential directions for the future of the field. This much-anticipated volume explores a wide range of topics, covering historical and contextual perspectives on women in the industry, interviews, case studies, individual position pieces, as well as informed analysis of current challenges and opportunities for change. Ground-breaking in its synthesis of perspectives, Gender in Music Production offers a broadly considered and thought-provoking resource for professionals, students, and researchers working in the field of music production today.

    Abstract: An authentic brand community is more than just people buying your product or working alongside one another. This book articulates the critical roles of mutual concern, common values, and shared experiences in creating fiercely loyal customer and collaborator relationships. Smart organizations know that creating communities is the key to unlocking unprecedented outcomes. But too many mistakenly rely on superficial transactional relationships as a foundation for community, when really people want something deeper. Carrie Melissa Jones and Charles Vogl argue that in an authentic and enriching community, members have mutual concern for one another, share personal values, and join together in meaningful shared experiences, whether online or off. On the deepest level, brands must help members grow into who they want to be. Jones and Vogl present practices used by global brands like Yelp, Etsy, Twitch, Harley Davidson, Salesforce, Airbnb, Sephora, and others to connect in a meaningful way with the people critical for their success. They articulate how authentic communities can serve organizational goals in seven different areas: innovation, talent recruitment, customer retention, marketing, customer service, building transformational movements, and creating community forums. They also reveal principles to grow a new brand community to critical mass. This is the first comprehensive guide to a crucial differentiator that gives organizations access to untapped enthusiasm and engagement.

    Abstract: Dive into performance tuning by learning how data is structured and accessed in SQL Server. Learn from this video how to use execution plans, IO metrics, and query timing to identify problematic queries and trace latency directly to missing or incorrect indexes. Also learn about cardinality and how it affects execution plans and overall query performance. Understanding how indexes and statistics work provides a solid foundation for writing better queries and architecting more effective database objects. The knowledge from this video helps you to dive further into procedural TSQL and identify why a stored procedure or ad-hoc query can perform unexpectedly badly. This video examines such cases through a discussion of the causes of poor performance in TSQL procedures along with solutions such as parameter sniffing. In addition, the video demonstrates how local variables perform differently from parameters and how plan reuse can benefit performance. When plan reuse harms performance, the correct solutions will be presented, allowing you to permanently solve a performance challenge without the use of hacks or temporary fixes. What You Will Learn Create effective table indexes with confidence Identify queries where poor indexing is the cause of latency Display and use statistical metrics to troubleshoot performance challenges Optimize and speed up queries that make poor use of indexes Find and resolve parameter sniffing problems in procedural TSQL Identify when ad-hoc TSQL or local variables can negatively affect performance Understand when plan reuse can inadvertently harm performance Who This Video Is For Database administrators, developers, and architects who need to write fast and efficient database queries. For database administrators who are asked to troubleshoot slow queries to make them faster. For anyone working against SQL Server who relies upon highly performant queries to perform important tasks.

    Abstract: This book builds on basic Python tutorials to explain various Python language features that aren't routinely covered: from reusable console scripts that play double duty as micro-services by leveraging entry points, to using asyncio efficiently to collate data from a large number of sources. Along the way, it covers type-hint based linting, low-overhead testing and other automated quality checking to demonstrate a robust real-world development process. Some powerful aspects of Python are often documented with contrived examples that explain the feature as a standalone example only. By following the design and build of a real-world application example from prototype to production quality you'll see not only how the various pieces of functionality work but how they integrate as part of the larger system design process. In addition, you'll benefit from the kind of useful asides and library recommendations that are a staple of conference Q&A sessions at Python conferences as well as discussions of modern Python best practice and techniques to better produce clear code that is easily maintainable. Advanced Python Development is intended for developers who can already write simple programs in Python and want to understand when it's appropriate to use new and advanced language features and to do so in a confident manner. It is especially of use to developers looking to progress to a more senior level and to very experienced developers who have thus far used older versions of Python. What You'll Learn Understand asynchronous programming Examine developing plugin architectures Work with type annotations Review testing techniques Explore packaging and dependency management Who This Book Is For Developers at the mid to senior level who already have Python experience.

    Series Statement: Independent Evaluation Group Studies
    Abstract: The World Bank Group's success rests on its ability to help its client countries achieve the development outcomes they desire. This demands a strong outcome orientation at the country-level, defined as the Bank Group's ability to generate feedback on what works, what does not, and why, use this feedback to adapt country programs, and boost contribution to development outcomes. This learning-focused evaluation provides a new vision of how to strengthen the Bank Group's outcome orientation in countries. IEG finds that the model of how the Bank Group aims for outcomes in its client countries is sound. However, the results system does not capture the Bank Group's contribution to country outcomes well, as its reliance on metrics, attribution, and short time-boundedness does not suit the nature of country programs. While country teams practice adaptive management, the country-level results system does not effectively support them in doing so. The report makes concrete proposals on how to rethink the country-level results systems, its tool kit; the accountability principles that underlies the system; and the incentives for staff to learn from experience and prioritize development results

    Series Statement: Independent Evaluation Group Studies
    Abstract: This evaluation provides lessons that could inform IFC's approach to the deployment of the blended finance instrument. Blended finance is a risk mitigation tool for investments that find it difficult to attract commercial funding. Blended finance refers to the combination of concessional and commercial funding in private sector-led projects. Its rationale is to support projects with potentially high social benefits, but that would not attract funding on strictly commercial terms due to their high risks. This note synthesizes evaluation findings from two sources: (i) IFC's early experience with blended finance as reflected in 14 project evaluations of projects approved over 2010-2014; and (ii) a cluster of five Project Performance Assessment Reports (PPARs) of recent projects, approved over 2012-2016. The emphasis is on findings from the more recent projects

    Series Statement: Systematic Country Diagnostics
    Abstract: One of three kingdoms in Africa, the Kingdom of Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) is a small, homogeneous, and landlocked country that is quasi-enclaved within South Africa. Eswatini is one of the world's most trade-dependent economies, with South Africa as its most important trading partner. The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to worsen Eswatini's growth outlook in the near to medium term, which will exacerbate the triple problems of high unemployment, poverty, and inequality. Eswatini has high levels of poverty and income inequality, which are not commensurate with its middle-income status. This Systematic Country Diagnostic views addressing inequality of opportunity, manifested in people's unequal access to assets, markets, services, and rights, as central to accelerating poverty reduction and shared prosperity in Eswatini. To this end, it identifies five interconnected, broad priority policy areas that could potentially make the greatest contribution to eliminating extreme poverty and boosting shared prosperity. These are: (a) strengthening macroeconomic management; (b) diversifying the economy and creating jobs; (c) strengthening human capital and the inclusive delivery of public services; (d) improving resilience to natural disasters and economic shocks; and across these four areas, (e) demonstrating credible commitment to transparent and effective policy implementation

    Abstract: In September 2017, Hurricane Irma devastated housing on the island of Sint Maarten. Between January and March of 2019, a World Bank team carried out this Rapid Housing Sector Diagnostic. The Diagnostic is based on information gathered during a one-week mission to Sint Maarten, desktop research, and analysis of drone- and street-view imagery gathered by the World Bank's Global Program for Resilient Housing. In the field, the team met with representatives of the government departments responsible for housing, as well as private sector players (developers, builders, engineers, banks, union representatives). The team also visited several social housing developments and informal settlements. Because this is the first assessment undertaken in Sint Maarten since the hurricane, housing data remains scarce. The Diagnostic's findings are therefore more qualitative than quantitative. They do, however, present a broad picture of the current state of the island's housing sector, which should be viewed as the start of a dialogue on housing with the Sint Maarten government, and as a foundation for the Bank to develop a longer-term engagement in the sector

    Abstract: Rapid digital transformation has been re-shaping the global economy, changing fundamental patterns of socioeconomic activities and accelerating further in the wake of the global Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. In this context, relying on the Digital Economy for Africa (DE4A) methodology, the report conducts a timely diagnostic of the state of digital economy in Togo. Togo is bordered by Ghana, Benin, and Burkina Faso, and has a coastline that runs along the Gulf of Guinea. The government of Togo (GoT) is cognizant of the importance of the transformation towards a digital economy. As the government of Togo launches into the development of a new strategy for digital transformation "Togo Digital 2025" the current diagnostic would provide useful information to use as a basis for such strategic document. This report aims to highlight opportunities to further develop Togo's digital economy with a special focus on policies that can bridge the digital divide and help Togo achieve the DE4A targets. This report aims to provide practical and actionable recommendations that inform decision makers on priority areas for development

    Abstract: Connecting African universities to affordable, high speed broadband internet is essential for attaining the goals of the digital economy for Africa moonshot, which aims to ensure that all African individuals, businesses, and governments are digitally enabled by 2030. Access to the Internet promotes economic growth, improvements to education and knowledge dissemination, and overall human development. The advanced digital skills of high quality, that are needed to adapt and exploit digital technologies, will need to be produced through reformed university programs and rapid skills development programs. Intermediate level digital skills that are needed on a broad scale for the diffusion of technologies will be produced on a large scale when all African tertiary level students (not just those in science and engineering courses) acquire adequate levels of digital competence. African universities need broadband in order to expand coverage, through blended and online learning; improve the quality of higher education; encourage the use of technology in higher education; and provide access to the enormous wealth of digital education resources available in the world and enable Africans to contribute their own digital content. Connecting Africa's universities will also have spillover effects on the broader education system, especially secondary schools and technical-vocational institutions, where teachers and students need to acquire intermediate and basic digital skills

    Abstract: The Indonesian economy is slowly recovering following the partial reopening of the domestic and global economies. But the pace of recovery is uneven across sectors. Several labor market indicators are significantly weaker than before the crisis. The monetary response to the crisis has been strong but involves macro-financial risks that need to be managed. The fiscal response to save lives and livelihoods and stimulate the recovery has been decisive. Albeit relatively low compared to peer countries, public debt is rising, and the fiscal space risks tightening in the absence of reforms. Notwithstanding the policy response, the current pace of recovery indicates that Indonesia will finish this year in recession, the first time in two decades

    Abstract: The Management Action Record (MAR) is a key element of the World Bank Group's accountability framework. The MAR supports accountability in the follow-up of Independent Evaluation Group (IEG) evaluation recommendations by enabling meaningful tracking, dialogue, and self-assessment of World Bank Group management's implementation of IEG recommendations. This document: (i) describes a reform of the MAR which aims to address shortcomings in the previous MAR system through more focus on the outcomes sought by IEG recommendations. (ii) validates a self-evaluation done by Bank Group management of their implementation of past IEG recommendations, and (iii) served as IEG's input to a discussion by the World Bank Group Boards' Committee on Development Effectiveness. The Committee on Development Effectiveness endorsed the MAR reform at its meeting on September 25, 2020. Following the meeting's decisions, two evaluations for which IEG and management had not reached agreement will continue to be tracked under the MAR

    Abstract: Kenya has made great strides in increasing access to electricity to its population. The Multi-Tier Framework (MTF) survey has found about two-thirds of the population of Kenya having access to electricity (either from a grid or an off-grid connection) as of early 2016. Given the high pace of grid and off-grid electrification in the recent years, the MTF provided an updated estimate using extrapolation techniques, which found three-fourths of the population having access to electricity through grid and off-grid options by early 2018. Kenya is well on its way to achieve universal access to electricity much earlier than the Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) goal of universal access by 2030. The Kenya National Electrification Strategy (KNES) launched in December 2018 provides a roadmap to achieving the universal electricity access goal by 2022. This initiative includes concerted efforts to increase access to electricity in the fourteen under-served counties through grid, mini-grid, and off-grid options. The present report provides data on energy access from a household perspective that confirm the strategic directions taken by the government in KNES. In addition, it provides additional disaggregated data that can inform implementation of KNES

    Abstract: Digital skills constitute one of the five foundational pillars of the Digital Economy for Africa (DE4A) initiative, launched by the World Bank, and are needed to mobilize digital innovations to transform economies, societies and governments in Africa. The other foundational pillars are digital infrastructure, digital platforms, digital financial services and digital entrepreneurship. African economies require both a digitally competent workforce as well as digitally literate citizens who could reap the benefits that the digital society brings. This paper presents a framework for digital skills, based on a review of international frameworks. It discusses the demand and supply of digital skills as well as a mapping with formal education programs at different levels of the system that could produce these skills. It also gives examples of programs outside of formal education programs that could be used for imparting skills training. Finally, it suggests indicators that could be used to better measure progress towards the objectives of the DE4A initiative

    Abstract: This brief summarizes the findings of the first round of a nationally representative high-frequency phone survey (HFPS) of households. The HFPS sample is drawn from the nationally representative living standard measurement study plus (LSMS+) implemented October to December 2019 by the National Institute of Statistics (NIS) with technical and financial support from the World Bank. The HFPS followed up with 1,364 households in LSMS+ with a phone number. The phone survey was successfully completed for 700 households for a response rate of 51 percent. Sampling weights were adjusted to ensure that the sample remains representative at the national and subnational level (urban and rural areas). The same households will be tracked over 10 months, with selected respondents - typically the household head - completing interviews every 8 weeks. Monitoring the well-being of households over time will improve understanding of the effects of, and household responses to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in near-real time

    Abstract: The Hydropower Sustainability Tools (HSTs) are a suite of assessment tools and guidance documents developed by a multi-stakeholder forum, aimed at driving continuous improvement in hydropower development and operations. They are useful beyond their original purpose as audit tools and can be used in World Bank Group (WBG) client countries to build capacity for sustainable hydropower. The environmental, social, and governance topics addressed by the HSTs are deliberately aligned with WBG frameworks, which provides opportunities for the tools to be used as complements to World Bank Group standards, including to help clients meet WBG requirements and support WBG staff in their due diligence and supervision. It is, however, important that WBG staff should give careful thought to selecting the tool that is most appropriate, given the nature and status of a project, and in a way that is consistent with policy requirements. The tools can also be used voluntarily by WBG client countries in the absence of WBG financing. The HSTs are widely regarded as useful reference tools and recognized as the best currently available measuring stick for principles of sustainable hydropower

    Abstract: Economic growth does not contribute enough to job creation. As shown in Merotto, weber and Aterido (2018), a bit more than half of growth episodes contributed to reducing unemployment. A significant part of this relationship between growth and jobs is centered around firms. Firms are more likely to hire when growing. For that reason, any discussion on how to get more jobs needs to respond to questions about firm performance. This review discusses the barriers to firm growth and performance, namely limited access to finance, frictions on the labor market, lack of know-how, limited access to technology and the role of markets. It synthesizes the main lessons on firm growth from firm-level experiments that address these constraints and when possible, focuses on the impacts of these interventions on jobs. The objective is to provide evidence that can guide practitioners who seek to promote jobs in the context of private sector development programming

    Abstract: Women comprise half of the world's adult population, and therefore potentially half of its labor force. Removing barriers that restrict women from entering the labor market is crucial for achieving equality, as well as to untap economic growth. The focus of this review is on female labor force participation (FLFP) instead of employment. Labor force participation captures the decision to actively engage with the labor market, while employment represents an equilibrium outcome. The distinction is often under-emphasized, but it is not trivial, as these indicators move separately. Indeed, the global rate of female employment has remained high at around 94 percent, while the rate of FLFP has not yet surpassed 50 percent. This review identifies constraints around three key drivers of FLFP. First, the authors examine how constraints in endowments such as time, education, financial and social capital limit women's participation. Second, authors review evidence on the role of internal factors such as choices, preferences, norms and beliefs on FLFP. Third, authors discuss how external constraints such as income shocks and demand-side factors inhibit active engagement in the labor market. Finally, the paper concludes with some lesson learned from policies to improve FLFP and draws up an agenda for future research

    Abstract: The forest tenure assessment tool (FTAT) and user guide consists of an integrated set of methodologies and guidelines for assessing both why it is important to secure community-based forest tenure in a specific national or sub-national context, and what needs to be done to strengthen forest tenure in that context. It is a companion piece to the analytical framework (AF), developed during phase one of the securing forest tenure rights for rural development initiative. The AF highlights the relevance of secure community-based forest tenure to sustainable development goals (SDG), and presents a set of key elements derived from evidence and best practice in securing community forest tenure. Community-based forest tenure is important because tenure security is key in achieving a range of SDGs. One part of the assessment methodology presented asks, why forest tenure reform? It focuses on consolidating country-specific evidence of the linkages between community-based forest tenure security and several, particularly relevant SDG. The methodology involves exploring opportunities to achieve development goals by strengthening tenure security, as well as risks to the achievement of development outcomes where tenure is insecure. This part of the methodology is aimed at developing policy rationales for dialogue with high-level decision-makers in governments and the World Bank. A second part of the methodology presented here examines how to secure collective forest tenure and focuses on assessing the current status of community tenure security in forest areas. The objective is to enable participatory diagnostic assessments of the strengths and weaknesses of current land and forest tenure frameworks, capacities, and implementation processes. This assessment tool is designed for anyone interested in understanding and strengthening community-based tenure security in forest landscapes in any country or region. The following sections provide an overview of the two part assessment methodology for understanding the why and how dimensions of community-based forest tenure in section two; step-by-step process guidelines for conducting assessments in section three; a final section that identifies five broad categories of Bank products and services that can benefit from the FTAT and a range of modalities of implementation that vary in cost and duration in section four

    Abstract: The fallout of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has hit the economy more than the crises in 2008 and 2015. The pandemic is projected to shrink by 2.5 percent this year. The economy is expected to grow modesty by 2.5 percent next year, based on an improved global economic outlook. This report estimates Kazakhstan's poverty rate will increase to 12-14 percent in 2020 from a baseline of 6 percent Nevertheless, there are significant risks because of uneven economic recovery across countries due to the protracted pandemic and higher debt-related risks to the global financial market. The domestic financial sector is also exposed to a higher risk of growing non-performing loans if support measures are withdrawn

    Series Statement: Economic Updates and Modeling
    Abstract: The Iranian economy entered a third consecutive year of recession following the triple-shock of sanctions, oil market collapse and Coronavirus (COVID-19). High inflation placed additional economic stress on lower income households following a sharp depreciation of the currency. As Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases surged, stricter measures were enforced in Fall 2020 and new social transfers were announced. This Iran Economic Monitor (IEM) provides an update on key economic developments and policies.

    Series Statement: Economic Updates and Modeling
    Abstract: Tunisia is expecting a sharper decline in growth than most of its regional peers, having entered the COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis whilst already experiencing slow growth and rising debt levels. After an expected 9.2 percent contraction in 2020, growth is temporarily expected to accelerate to 5.8 percent in 2021 as the pandemic's effects begin to abate, before returning to a more subdued growth trajectory at around 2 percent by 2022, reflecting pre-existing structural weaknesses. With this, some of the past gains in job creation and poverty reduction will be lost as unemployment edges up and the share of the population vulnerable to falling into poverty increases. In this difficult context, restoring the credibility of the macroeconomic framework is a critical next step for Tunisia to successfully navigate its way through this crisis and lay the foundation for a more durable recovery in growth. The special focus in this edition of the Tunisia Economic Monitor draws on the recently published enterprise survey for Tunisia to discuss the latest evidence on firm performance and present priorities for a growing and more productive private sector

    Abstract: Endowed with rich forest resources, Paraguay has lost a large portion of its native forest cover in recent decades, primarily owing to the rapid expansion of the agricultural frontier and, to a lesser extent, the extraction of fuelwood, which underpins the country's energy security. A forest plantation subsector is emerging, in part to address the annual deficit of sustainably sourced biomass of around 9 million cubic meters

    Abstract: Trade is widely recognized to be an engine of growth that creates jobs, reduces poverty, and increases economic opportunity. Trade facilitation measures are non-discriminatory and apply to all traders in their design; however, these measures may not necessarily impact or benefit all traders in similar ways. There is a global lack of data on how trade facilitation interventions impact traders by gender at the firm level. There is also a global vacuum of knowledge of the exact proportion of cross-border traders that are women. Few countries, if any, can easily confirm the number of women that undertake cross-border trade in their respective countries. Designing interventions that are inclusive, benefiting women as well as men, is difficult without accurate data on the gender of those who participate actively in cross-border trade. Without this knowledge and that of the exact challenges faced by both genders, it is also hard to tell how much any subset of the economy would be impacted by any intervention. This lack of data may also reinforce the bias against women in trade policy making. This note presents findings of the survey work in Vanuatu. Vanuatu is an archipelago of 83 islands and relies on its interisland shipping services to connect the outer islands to the main ports of Port Villa and Luganville as well as to support international trade

    Abstract: Real GDP growth exceeded 6 percent during the two years before COVID-19 (coronavirus) struck, supported by rebounding confidence, investment, low interest rates, and growing tourism. Investment accounted for over 22 percent of GDP in 2019, three-fifths of which was private. The tourism market had weathered the collapse of Thomas Cook UK and expanded into new markets. Industry was the fastest-growing sector in 2019, partly due to the issuance of oil-prospecting licenses, but also due to strong investment in construction fueled by remittances from the diaspora. On the other hand, agriculture had contracted, affected by erratic rainfall and the late supply of inputs. Tourism arrivals had started the year in line with 2019 but collapsed by 50 percent in March and are expected to fall by 63 percent in 2020. However, official remittances grew at record pace in the second quarter, perhaps due to travel restrictions closing informal channels. Favorable rainfall, good access to inputs, and few pest outbreaks bode well for agriculture. It registered the lowest fiscal deficit since 2009 and a primary surplus after 2009. This came despite increased expenditure, as revenues rose due to increased excises and levies and improved revenue administration capacity. Both budget and project grants also increased. The Government continues to make large transfers to state-owned enterprises (SOEs), however, the fiscal burden of which is estimated to be around 6 percent of 2019 GDP. Pressures from COVID-19 saw the deficit rise in the first half of 2020 although the tax authorities still managed to exceed their revised collection targets. Tax exemptions, although declining, continue to be sizeable-without discretionary exemptions, the deficit in the first half of 2020 would have been reduced by 0.7 percent of GDP. Non-tax revenue has been boosted by one-off items such as the sale of assets, which partly compensated for the tax decline. The Government initially responded to pandemic-related spending pressures through budgetary reallocation. In July, the National Assembly passed a supplementary bill aimed at providing further relief and stimulating recovery

    Abstract: This report: (i) explains economic and legal implications of current job restrictions to women for Azerbaijan, (ii) provides compelling arguments to move away from a job-title centric form of restricting and protecting women to an exposure focused rationale, and provides other country examples that follow an exposure-focused risk approach, (iii) describes the methodology used to assess OH hazards/risks attributed to each job restricted to women, critically reviews restricted jobs and provides resultant conclusions, and (iv) recommends changes to reform Labor Code and subsidiary legislation to align them with other national legislation, international conventions and good international practice. Importantly, the report provides suggestions on how to address the ramifications resulting from these changes. It is of note that this assessment is first of its kind for Azerbaijan to systematically and methodologically review job restrictions to women from a perspective of occupational health hazards and risks using available evidence

    Abstract: Over the past several decades, robust economic growth and sustained poverty reduction have made the Dominican Republic (DR) a regional success story, yet the country's adolescent pregnancy rate remains far above the average for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) and is closer to the levels observed in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Adolescent pregnancy poses severe risks to girls and young women, including elevated rates of maternal1 and child mortality, and is strongly correlated with sexual abuse and domestic violence. This report analyzes the DR's persistently high rate of adolescent pregnancy, identifies its main determinants and consequences, and evaluates the effectiveness of policies and programs designed to help reduce adolescent pregnancy and mitigate its adverse personal and social impacts. This report presents a set of stylized facts on adolescent pregnancy in the DR and uses an econometric model to estimate the statistical significance of risk factors for adolescent pregnancy and its negative effects at the individual and household levels. Finally, an assessment of early adolescent versus late adolescent pregnancy reveals important differences in their causes and implications

    Abstract: Air pollution is a major cause of death and disease. 'Ambient air pollution' refers to contamination of outdoor air; 'household air pollution' refers to contamination of indoor air. Ambient (or outdoor) air pollution is the world's leading environmental risk to health and the cause of morbidity and mortality from diseases such as ischemic heart disease, lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, stroke, and pneumonia. Most deaths related to air pollution are caused by human exposure to fine inhalable particles or fine particulate matter, also known as PM2.5. An estimated 4.1 million people died prematurely worldwide in 2016 due to exposure to outdoor PM2.5. About 90 percent of those deaths occurred in low- and middle-income countries. This report provides an estimate of the global, regional, and national costs of health damage-that is, premature mortality and morbidity-from exposure to ambient PM2.5 air pollution in 2016. Using the estimates of mortality and morbidity from ambient PM2.5 published in the Global Burden of Disease 2016 study, this report estimates the global cost of premature mortality and morbidity from exposure to ambient PM2.5 air pollution to be USD 5.7 trillion in 2016, equivalent to 4.8 percent of global gross domestic product in the same year. Global health crises further highlight the need for continued action in addressing a global and cross-cutting challenge such as air pollution. The current global COVID-19 pandemic underscores the importance of reducing air pollution through preventive and abatement measures. People who contract COVID-19 and have underlying medical problems such as heart disease, lung disease, and cancer, which are also associated with air pollution, are at a higher risk of developing serious illnesses that could lead to death

    Abstract: Sneak Peek The Sneak Peek program provides early access to Pearson video products and is exclusively available to Safari subscribers. Content for titles in this program is made available throughout the development cycle, so products may not be complete, edited, or finalized, including video post-production editing. 16+ Hours of Video Instruction Parallel Functional Programming in Java LiveLessons describes by example how to apply Java functional programming features and frameworks to alleviate the complexity of developing software that can run efficiently and scalably on multi-core and distributed-core processors. In this course, learn how to develop programs using powerful object-oriented and functional programming language features and frameworks supported by Java. This course first provides an introduction to Java's foundational functional programming features, including lambda expressions, method references, and functional interfaces. These core features provide the foundation for the next topic in this course: the Java's Streams framework, which supports functional-style sequential and parallel operations on streams of elements, such as map-reduce transformations on Java collections. This course also shows by example how to develop efficient reactive programs that run scalably on multi-core processors using powerful object-oriented and functional programming language features and parallelism frameworks supported by Java. This portion of the course describes how Java leverages its functional programming features to create the completable futures framework. This framework defines a powerful reactive programming model that allows programmers to run multiple asynchronous operations concurrently in one or more pools of threads and process their results asynchronously with respect to other operations in a program. Skill Level Intermediate Learn How To Develop efficient parallel and reactive programs using powerful modern Java object-oriented and functional programming language features and frameworks Recognize the inherent and accidental complexities involved with developing parallel and reactive software for modern Java clients and servers Understand how common software patterns and modern Java parallel and reactive programming mechanisms can and cannot help to alleviate this complexity Know where to find additional sources of information on how to successfully develop robust parallel and reactive programs in modern Java Who Should Take This C...

    Abstract: Families share how they have maintained and grown their wealth from generation to generation. While creating wealth is a wonderful achievement, business families are also concerned with how their wealth is used to support their values, the lives of their children and the well-being of the community. Over several generations, families who are successful in growing their wealth have been able to reinvent themselves and their business in the face of significant environmental transformations and internal differences cause by family dynamics. Borrowed from my Grandchildren is a fascinating look at how large, long-lasting business families succeed across generations. Author Dennis T. Jaffe, one of the leading architects of the field of family enterprise consulting, has interviewed members of successful, well known, 100-year family enterprises from 20 countries, who serve as role models for those wishing to see their wealth positively impact their children, employees, and communities. Half continue to own their legacy business and others have gone on to become family offices with a portfolio of shared assets, but all these families have sustained their values and identity as a family over more than three generations. Offering the collected wisdom of nearly 100 global business families, this insightful book shares the real-life stories of partners in business and wealth management over three of more generations. Families that generate rather than reduce their wealth across generations, known as Generative Families, focus on engaging across generations and develop collaborative governance for both family and business to ensure responsible stewardship from one generation to the next. This unique resource: Presents real-life stories of families sustaining wealth over generations Explores both the successes and failures of retaining family wealth Includes rare private insights from members of prominent wealthy families Examines the nature of global family enterprises and their evolution over generations Discusses the financial, human, and social dimensions of wealth Borrowed from my Grandchildren: The Evolution of Stewardship in 100-Year Families is an essential read for family members, non-family executives, family offices, estate planning lawyers, family business consultants, trust officers, philanthropic and foundation advisors, financial advisors, financial planners, CPAs, and other finance professionals.

    Abstract: Listed as one of the 30 Best Business Books of 2002 by Executive Book Summaries. Proactive Risk Management's unique approach provides a model of risk that is scalable to any size project or program and easily deployable into any product development or project management life cycle. It offers methods for identifying drivers (causes) of risks so you can manage root causes rather than the symptoms of risks. Providing you with an appropriate quantification of the key factors of a risk allows you to prioritize those risks without introducing errors that render the numbers meaningless. This book stands apart from much of the literature on project risk management in its practical, easy-to-use, fact-based approach to managing all of the risks associated with a project. The depth of actual how-to information and techniques provided here is not available anywhere else.

    Abstract: Gain a gentle introduction to the world of Ring programming with clarity as a first concern using a lot of practical examples. The first part lays the foundations of the language and its basic features (data types, control structures, functions, and classes). The unique way to rigorously structure Ring programs is also explained. Then, in the second part you'll discover Ring inputs, outputs, and what is in between. You'll use the basic constructs of computer logic (sequence, selection, and iteration) to build simple and complex logic flows. You'll go over the common mistakes that lead to code complexity, by example, and cover several strategies to solve them (refactoring, code cleansing, and good variable naming). Then, you'll see a visual illustration of how Ring deals with scopes at the local, object, and global levels. In part three, you'll play with two artifacts vital to Ring programming: functions and objects. You'll learn how they can be composed to solve a problem and how advanced programming paradigms, such as declarative and natural, are beautifully implemented on top of them. As part of the discussion, you'll also work on game programming. You'll learn how you design your game declaratively, in Ring code, just as if you were designing it in visual software. Finally, the author lays out how programming can be understood in a gamified context. You will be told the truth about how gaming can be a better metaphor to achieve mastery of Ring programming. This book is for those who are passionate about writing beautiful, expressive, and learnable code. It has been designed so you can enjoy a beginner-friendly set of knowledge about Ring, and benefit from a one-stop collection of lessons learned from real-world, customer-facing programming projects. What You Will Learn Get started with Ring and master its data types, I/O, functions, and classes Carry out structural, object-oriented, functional, declarative, natural, and meta programming in Ring Use the full power of Ring to refactor program code and develop clean program architectures Quickly design professional-grade video games on top of the Ring game engine Who This Book Is For Beginners looking for a consistent and hackable programming environment with a strong flavor of learnability and expressiveness.

    Abstract: Learn the architecture and implementation of Microsoft's latest SQL Server capability - Big Data Clusters. Combine SQL Server for data, PolyBase for data virtualization, Data Pools for scale-out data processing, and Spark with HDFS for scalable non-relational data processing and analysis. You'll begin this video with a quick overview of the big data space, along with an easy-to-understand introduction to containers, Kubernetes, Spark, and HDFS. You'll put those pieces together by planning and deploying your own cluster. Then it's on to operationalizing the cluster through problem-solving with Transact-SQL, PolyBase, data processing at scale, and working with Spark and HDFS. What You Will Learn Understand big data technologies such as Spark and HDFS Deploy a Big Data Cluster on a Kubernetes environment in Azure Implement PolyBase queries to bring in data from external sources Run Transact-SQL statements and process relational data at scale Execute Spark jobs and machine learning from within SQL Server 2019 Implement basic security protocols to protect your data from theft Who This Video Is For Database professionals who are curious about SQL Server 2019's flagship feature. For those who want to get started in querying and analyzing massive amounts of data using Spark and HDFS clusters while taking advantage of their SQL Server investment.

    Abstract: Create good data from the start, rather than fixing it after it is collected. By following the guidelines in this book, you will be able to conduct more effective analyses and produce timely presentations of research data. Data analysts are often presented with datasets for exploration and study that are poorly designed, leading to difficulties in interpretation and to delays in producing meaningful results. Much data analytics training focuses on how to clean and transform datasets before serious analyses can even be started. Inappropriate or confusing representations, unit of measurement choices, coding errors, missing values, outliers, etc., can be avoided by using good dataset design and by understanding how data types determine the kinds of analyses which can be performed. This book discusses the principles and best practices of dataset creation, and covers basic data types and their related appropriate statistics and visualizations. A key focus of the book is why certain data types are chosen for representing concepts and measurements, in contrast to the typical discussions of how to analyze a specific data type once it has been selected. What You Will Learn Be aware of the principles of creating and collecting data Know the basic data types and representations Select data types, anticipating analysis goals Understand dataset structures and practices for analyzing and sharing Be guided by examples and use cases (good and bad) Use cleaning tools and methods to create good data Who This Book Is For Researchers who design studies and collect data and subsequently conduct and report the results of their analyses can use the best practices in this book to produce better descriptions and interpretations of their work. In addition, data analysts who explore and explain data of other researchers will be able to create better datasets.
