This chapter continues with CBM Elements and the design factors related to the anthropology of culture. Cultural communications is covered in its entirety. Cultural communications is the exchange or transmission of information. This exchange can be between human beings, other species or entities. Cultural communications serves a purpose; these purposes maybe to report, inform, persuade, warn, direct, or induce a response. However the ultimate goal is to convey meaning from the information source to destination or sender to receiver (Meadow, 2002). Cultural communications can be applied to cultures, target audiences, and other species. In terms of societies and cultures, cultural communications looks at the forms of communications or communication systems that exist. Cultural communications in relation to a target audience looks at language (nonverbal, verbal); writing; spatial, temporal, and visual cues; and semiotics (signs & symbols).

The simulation program by the Monte Carlo method of pulse reactions of bistatic atmospheric aerosol-gas channels of optical-electronic communication systems (OECS) is created on the basis of the modified double local estimation algorithm. It is used in a series of numerical experiments in order to evaluate statistically the transfer characteristics of these channels depending on the optical characteristics of an atmosphere plane-parallel model for wavelengths λ = 0.3, 0.5, and 0.9 μm at a meteorological visibility range SM = 10 and 50 km. The results are obtained for a set of basic distances between the light source and the light receiver up to 50 km and for the angular orientations of the optical axes of a laser radiation beam and of the receiving system in a wide range of their values. The dependences of the pulse reactions maximum values over-the-horizon channels of the OECS on the variations of these parameters are established.

Pseudorandom number generators are used in many areas of contemporary technology such as modern communication systems and engineering applications. In recent years a new approach to secure transmission of information based on the application of the theory of chaotic dynamical systems has been developed. In this paper we present a method of generating pseudorandom numbers applying discrete chaotic dynamical systems. The idea of construction of chaotic pseudorandom number generators (CPRNG) intrinsically exploits the property of extreme sensitivity of trajectories to small changes of initial conditions, since the generated bits are associated with trajectories in an appropriate way. To ensure good statistical properties of the CPRBG (which determine its quality) we assume that the dynamical systems used are also ergodic or preferably mixing. Finally, since chaotic systems often appear in realistic physical situations, we suggest a physical model of CPRNG.

Optic Communication

From time immemorial communication is an essential need for human beings. Communication happens through the channel. Among many channels for communication, Fiber is a vital wired channel that has infinite bandwidth and high noise immunity against electromagnetic interference. The phenomenon of dispersion is the major problem for high bit rate and long-haul optical communication systems. An easy solution to this problem is optical Solitons - Pulses that preserve their shape over long distances. Soliton based optical communication systems establish over distances of several thousands of kilometers with considerable information carrying capacity by using optical amplifiers.

Globalized World

There is no single and universal definition for ICT (information and communication technology). The term is normally adopted to all devices, networking components, applications, and systems that allow combined people, companies, and organizations (i.e., businesses, nonprofit agencies, governments, and enterprises) to interact in the digital world, the modern era. In this digitally globalized world, we deal with a huge set of data all the time. Data refers to facts, events, actions, activities, and transactions which have been and can be recorded (i.e., the raw material from which information is produced), nurturing the infrastructure and components that enable modern computing. Based on this, the present study aims to implement a discrete events-based model with advanced modulation format DQPSK in a simulation environment, the Simulink of MATLAB software, aiming to improve the transmission of information in communication systems. The results show better computational performance related to memory utilization related to compression of the information, showing an improvement of up to 92.6%.

New Research

Condemned as degenerate art during the Third Reich, German Zeitopern and their artistic treatment of technological infiltration during die Weimar Republic have sparked a variety of new research projects, world-wide musical performances and CD releases from Decca/London in a continuing series entitled ‘Entartete Kunst.’ Manifestos were written in response to the penetration of technology into nearly every aspect of human life, envisaging a future where human beings would interact organically with their new urban environments. Expressionism, Americanism and the concept of Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) symbolized fresh driving forces that emerged most visibly in opera. In contrast to pre-war Romanticism and Wagnerian mythology, the ‘New Objectivity’ demonstrated a radical commitment to the modern environment, focusing on visible, objective reality rather dian on the emotions of the artist. Particularly in Zeitopern, composers like Max Brand, Paul Hindemith, and Ernst Krenek embraced contemporary ideas of progress, new technological inventions, modern electronic communication systems and means of transportation as props, story topics and artistic vehicles to introduce new sound-effects. In several instances modern technology appeared as simply anodier stage-prop in die long history of opera stage design. In die context of European conceptions of Americanism, technology was pardy understood as a threat to the establishment's reverence for Romantic high culture. And yet in many instances it was also a welcome tool in the project of redirecting all the arts from their stagnant, inflexible pasts to modern, progressive forms of contemporary entertainment. Such diverse attitudes to the potent symbolism of the machine indicate a conflict inherent in aesthetic practice at the time and raise fundamental questions. Do composers successfully represent human beings as creative and autonomous individuals while simultaneously introducing technological images of dominance and depersonalization? If there are contradictory aspects in the representation of technology, how do they relate to the various aesthetic views of the 1920s? Max Brand's central work and acclaimed prototype of Zeitopern, Maschinist Hopkins (1928), brings the world of technology and its sophisticated artifacts to the musical stage. A close analysis reveals basic contradictions, symptomatic of the era, in the composer's embrace of modern technology.

The development of da'wah demands a diverse approach in line with the passage of time and the state of society today. The delivery of preaching is no longer tied to lectures or traditional approaches but is even necessary to contemporary approaches that meet the demands of the target audience. Realizing that art has the values of beauty and can give charm to human beings, then the use of art in da'wah is quite significant. In addition to contributing to the demands of nature, art that meets Shari'a boundaries and contains educational elements also has the potential to influence thinking and lifestyle more positively. As such, art is seen as one of the effective mediums for propagating Islam to its target audience through the use of communication technology and social media applications. Therefore, the study by document analysis as well as the results of research in the form of books, journals, and papers discuss the concept of da'wah and art, art according to Islamic perspective and art as a contemporary da'wah approach. Perkembangan dakwah pada masa kini menuntut kepada pendekatan yang pelbagai selari dengan peredaran zaman dan keadaan masyarakat pada masa kini. Penyampaian dakwah tidak lagi terikat dengan cara berceramah atau pendekatan secara tradisi semata-mata bahkan perlu kepada pendekatan kontemporari yang dapat memenuhi keinginan sasaran dakwah. Menyedari kesenian yang mempunyai nilai-nilai keindahan dan berupaya memberi daya tarikan kepada manusia, maka pemanfaatan kesenian dalam dakwah adalah suatu yang cukup signifikan. Di samping berperanan memenuhi tuntutan fitrah, kesenian yang menepati batasan syariat serta mengandungi elemen-elemen mendidik turut berpotensi besar dalam mempengaruhi pemikiran dan gaya hidup ke arah yang lebih positif. Justeru, kesenian dilihat sebagai salah satu medium dakwah yang berkesan dalam menyebarluaskan Islam kepada sasaran khalayak melalui penggunaan aplikasi teknologi komunikasi dan media sosial. Oleh yang demikian, kajian secara analisis dokumen serta hasil kajian dalam bentuk buku, jurnal dan kertas kerja ini membincangkan tentang konsep dakwah dan kesenian, kesenian menurut perspektif Islam dan kesenian sebagai pendekatan dakwah kontemporari.

This chapter continues with CBM Elements and the design factors related to the anthropology of culture. Cultural demographics and Cultural environment are covered in their entirety. Cultural demographics provide the characteristics of a population for a geographic area. Geographic areas are identified by levels such as nation, state, city, county, tracks, blocks, province, and so forth (U.S. Census Bureau [USCB], 2005). This information is usually statistical. Demographic data provide mostly a quantitative picture of a population and aid in predicting economic or market trends. Through the use of demographic data, predictions about populations can be made in reference to increases in the demand for food, clothing, educational achievement, entertainment, housing, insurance, investments, health services, and so forth. Examples of Westernized demographic trends include: baby boom years, single parent families, two income families, and nuclear families. Demographic data are also culture-specific and can not be generalized to other populations. A culture-specific example is data from Japan’s 2000 census that calculated the total population of males at 62,110,764 males to 64,815,079 females. The number of females outnumbers males by 2,704,315 (Statistics Bureau of Japan, 2000). The collection of demographic data is unique to each society or culture. What works for one culture may not work for another. Or the collection of such data may not be operational due to other social, political, or economic factors. The characteristics of a population might include data based on the following: age, assets, birth, death, density, disease, educational achievement, ethnicity, family, growth, housing, incarceration, income, language, marital status, migration, mobility, occupation, race, sex, and size (USCB, 2005). All of these characteristics are described in this chapter. The collection of demographic data could begin with an examination of characteristics in a population such as “age” and multiple characteristics of a population, such as sex, income, household, geographic areas, disease, marriage, and so forth. Therefore, the data collection might look at age and its relation to sex, or age and income, or age and household. The guiding questions, in this section, focus on human beings; however they can be adapted to other species and entities.
