Dictionaries Denied: Information Poverty In Michigan Prison Libraries, Nicholas Norton, Meghan Mcgowan

Journal of Civil Rights and Economic Development

(Excerpt)

In June of 2022, the Michigan Department of Corrections (“MDOC”) made national news when NPR reported that non-English language dictionaries were banned in state prisons. The rationale for this policy was specious—with an MDOC spokesperson stating: “If certain prisoners all decided to learn a very obscure language, they would be able to then speak freely in front of staff and others about introducing contraband or assaulting staff or assaulting another prisoner.” For instance, Spanish and Swahili dictionaries were restricted or banned based on safety, even though both languages are spoken by millions of people. Dictionaries and other reference materials …

Equalizing Disproportionate Death And Punishment In Black And Brown Communities: An Emergency Shutdown On Death, Inequality, And Deliberate Indifference, Angela Dixon

Journal of Civil Rights and Economic Development

(Excerpt)

According to an old saying, “death is the great equalizer.” But is it? It may be in the sense that absent a contravening force, it is an appointment that all must keep. Yet data indicates that all do not die equally. Socioeconomic status (“SES”), which includes levels of occupation, education, income, and wealth, all delay or advance mortality. People of a higher SES outlive, generally, people of a lower SES; moreover, such disparities continue to widen as trends of income inequality intensify.

Perhaps predictably, race, just like class, exacerbates inequities. Black Americans in the United States remain the pivotal …

Ramat Razim, Near Ẓefat: A Middle Bronze Age Rural Site In The Tel Ḥaẓor Polity, Karen Covello-Paran, Anat Cohen-Weinberger, Barak Tzin, Shlomit Bechar

'Atiqot

An archaeological excavation carried out at Ramat Razim, near Ẓefat, exposed a Middle Bronze Age rural settlement, dated by the ceramic assemblage within Middle Bronze Age II–III. Spatial analysis identified communal workspaces and possible domestic cult practices in specific rooms, and the distribution of the ground stone tools and ceramic storage vessels reflected food-processing activities and a decentralized grain-storage approach. In addition to agriculture, pastoralism—specifically sheep rearing—played a significant role in the settlement’s economy, probably engendering economic exchanges under the influence of Ḥaẓor, the major city in the region. Petrographic analysis linking the pithoi to the Ḥula Valley raised questions …

Rural Complexity In The Intermediate Bronze Age: Settlement Patterns And Intra-Site Spatial Organization In Lower Galilee, Karen Covello-Paran

'Atiqot

This study explores the settlement patterns in Intermediate Bronze Age Lower Galilee, focusing on the Ḥorbat Qishron sites and their socio-economic organization.

Operational Risk, Capital Regulation, And Model Risk, Robert T. Stewart

Business: Faculty Presentations

Operational risk capital regulation is moving from internal to standardized models - from the advanced measurement approach (AMA) to the standardized measurement approach (SMA). All know the results of these changes: politically connected banks will further decrease their equity financing making bank failures and taxpayer-backed bailouts more likely. Yet the goal of operational risk modeling must be to create useful models that capture relevant aspects of reality and improve decision-making. Therefore, operational risk modeling should assimilate seven fundamental properties into an operational risk managerial framework: well-aligned incentives, inaccuracies in the data, accounting for empirical realities, acknowledging unknown unknowns, communicating uncertainty, …

Well Presence, Well Performance: The Effect Of Online Presence On Indonesian Remote Employees’ Performance Through Workplace Well-Being, Iqbal Maesa Febriawan

Psychological Research on Urban Society

Accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic and driven by technological advances as well as changing attitudes toward traditional office environments, the workplace landscape has experienced a rapid shift toward remote work. Regardless of urban employees’ interest in remote work, studies have yet to explore the impact of online presence on employee performance as mediated by workplace well-being. A total of 132 private and government employees completed three questionnaires. The results supported the hypothesis that workplace well-being mediates the effect of online presence on performance. The findings also suggest that employees with stronger online presence tend to have better workplace well-being, which …

Side-Channel Analysis Platform For A Hardware Implementation Of Fips 203 (Crystals-Kyber), Mohamed Mossad

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In 2024, NIST selected the Post-Quantum Cryptography algorithm CRYSTALS-Kyber for standardization as a public-key encryption, key establishment scheme. CRYSTALS-Kyber was standardized under the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS), specifically FIPS 203. FIPS standards represent a set of guidelines, developed by NIST, for secure data handling in federal information systems, mandating cryptographic algorithms that protect sensitive information. This highlights the importance of identifying potential vulnerabilities in the algorithm and assessing how CRYSTALS-Kyber implementations react to hardware side channel attacks. Previous research identified several vulnerabilities in implementations of CRYSTALS-Kyber in software, which were addressed in subsequent releases. This thesis focuses on expanding …
