Guiding Principles For Teaching About Genocide And Other Difficult Pasts, Kerry E. Whigham

Genocide Studies and Prevention: An International Journal

This article outlines guiding principles for teaching “difficult pasts”—episodes of large-scale, identity-based violence such as genocide, crimes against humanity, colonialism, and enslavement—in ways that promote peace, human rights, and the prevention of future atrocities. Drawing from the fields of Holocaust and Genocide Education (HGE), Global Citizenship Education (GCED), Peace Education (PE), and Human Rights Education (HRE), it argues that instruction should move beyond the memorization of historical facts toward developing students’ socio-emotional and behavioral capacities to recognize and resist processes of othering, discrimination, and violence. The brief presents three main areas of guidance: curricular content, emphasizing conceptual understanding over rote …

Development Of A High-Doppler Shift Optical Simulator To Test Femtosecond-Level Optical Time-Frequency Transfer, Matthew S. Bigelow, Kyle W. Martin, Nolan Matthews, Benjamin K. Stuhl, Richard Gonzales, Alexandre De Pinho E Braga, John Elgin, Kimberly A. Frey

Space Dynamics Laboratory Publications

We have developed an optical simulator to test real-time optical two-way time–frequency transfer at the femtosecond level capable of simulating relative motion between two linked optical clock nodes up to Mach 1.8 with no moving parts. The technique is enabled by artificially Doppler shifting femtosecond pulses from auxiliary stabilized optical frequency combs. These pulses are exchanged between the nodes to simulate the Doppler shifts observed from a changing optical path length. We can continuously scan the simulated velocity from 14 to 620 m s⁻¹ while simultaneously measuring velocity-dependent clock shifts at much higher velocities than previously recorded. This system …

Barriers To Digital Payment Adoption In Saudi Arabia: A Plithogenic Indetermhypersoft Complex Refined Modelling Approach, Mohanned H. Alharbi

Sustainable Machine Intelligence Journal

Digital payments are central to Saudi Arabia's financial modernization under Vision 2030. While infrastructure and regulations have advanced rapidly, adoption is still hindered by barriers such as security concerns, unclear costs, usability issues, and religious ambiguity. Standard analytical models often struggle to evaluate these barriers because user feedback is frequently incomplete, conflicting, or vague. To address this uncertainty, this paper proposes a new decision-making framework: the Plithogenic IndetermHyperSoft Complex Refined Neutrosophic model (PIHCRN-DPA). This model integrates advanced mathematical concepts to handle complexity. It uses refined neutrosophic sets to process degrees of truth and indeterminacy, while complex sets account for contextual …

The M-Clean Graph Of A Finite Commutative Ring, Susan F. El-Deken, Harald Fripertinger, Aya Gamal

Sustainable Machine Intelligence Journal

We study m-clean graphs of finite commutative rings R, which are a generalization of clean graphs. Their vertices are pairs of m-potent elements and units of R. These graphs can be described as Cartesian sums or co-normal products of two graphs. In particular we explore under which conditions the subgraph involving only non-zero m-potent elements is connected and we determine the degrees of its vertices. Moreover, we characterize under which conditions on two rings the corresponding m-clean graphs are isomorphic.

In this study, we present a comprehensive evaluation of 6G cybersecurity in relation to agentic AI. We evaluate current research, point out …

Batf2 Is A Glutamine-Responsive Tumour Suppressor Required For Type-I Interferon-Dependent Anti-Tumour Immunity, Wang Gong, Hülya F Taner, Yuesong Wu, Yumin He, Xingwu Zhou, Zaiye Li, Xin Hu, Charisse Ursin, Kala Chand Debnath, Kohei Okuyama, Qiang Hu, Christopher R Donnelly, Felipe Nör, Chamila D Perera, Emily Bellile, Arash Yunesi, Zhiqian Zhai, Mei Zhao, Wanqing Cheng, Zackary R Fitzsimonds, Luke Broses, Jiaqian Li, Shadmehr Demehri, Deepak Nagrath, Gregory T Wolf, Andrew G Sikora, Yanbao Yu, Haitao Wen, Lei Wei, Steven B Chinn, Jeffrey N Myers, Shizuo Akira, Yuying Xie, James J Moon, Yu Leo Lei

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Recent evidence highlights the significance of a new type of tumour suppressors, which are not frequently mutated but inhibited by metabolic cues in cancers. Here, we identify BATF2 as a tumour suppressor whose expression is epigenetically silenced by glutamine in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinomas (HNSCC). BATF2 correlates with type-I interferon and Th1 signatures in human HNSCC, with correlation coefficients even stronger than those of the positive control, STING. The phosphorylation of BATF2 at serine 227 promotes the oligomerization of STING. BATF2 deficiency or high glutamine levels result in higher oxygen consumption rates and metabolic profiles unfavorable for …

Identifying Research Priorities For Post-Collision Care In The United Kingdom: Protocol For A Road Injury Priority Setting Partnership, Tim Nutbeam, Caroline Leech, Claire E Baker, Elizabeth Box, Lauren R Rodgers, Kerry Dungay, Louise Johnson, Brian Lee, Marilyn Macqueen, Rob Fenwick, Ian Marritt, Ian Dunbar, Ed B.G. Barnard

Peninsula Medical School

Background: Road traffic injury remains a significant global health challenge, causing over 1.2 million deaths and tens of millions of non-fatal injuries each year. In the United Kingdom (UK), more than 1,600 people died and nearly 30,000 sustained serious injuries on the roads in 2024. While improvements in vehicle design, road infrastructure, emergency response, and road user behaviour have contributed to a sustained reduction in road deaths over recent decades, outcomes for those injured remain variable, and post-collision care has received comparatively less research attention. The Road Injury Chain of Survival framework identifies five interdependent stages where timely, coordinated interventions …

Decolonizing Knowledge As Epistemic Justice: Key Conceptual Tendencies From The Global South, Richard Sambaiga

Tanzania Journal of Sociology

The project of decolonising knowledge has gained renewed prominence as scholars confront enduring epistemic injustices and structural inequalities embedded in global systems of knowledge production. Situated within long-standing anticolonial and postcolonial intellectual struggles, this article interrogates key conceptual dilemmas that continue to shape contemporary debates on decoloniality. Adopting a commentary orientation, it examines what it means to decolonise knowledge by engaging the historical foundations of decolonial thought alongside contemporary critiques that expose the persistence of epistemic hierarchies within modern academic institutions. The article argues that, without conceptual clarity, the decolonial project risks becoming analytically misguided and politically misdirected, potentially reproducing …

Theorizing ‘Magwangala’ As An Unorthodox Livelihood In Geita, Tanzania, Albert Tibaijuka

Tanzania Journal of Sociology

The increasing contestation of Magwangala as a livelihood in Geita, Tanzania, invokes a scholarly desire to further the constitution of the term beyond its traditional constructs. Following the present framing of magwangala as a disruptive, hazardous, contentious, and risky engagement; including the sanctions against it and the disparaging remarks upsurging the oppression of its actors, an attempt to advance its comprehension is of paramount importance. Given the nature of Magwangala business and the evident ramifications, its contestation is inevitable and unlikely to yield a uniform understanding. This paper, therefore, draws from the grueling life experiences endured by magwangala dealers in …

Empirical Analysis Of Machine Learning Models For Predicting Equipment Failures Using Iot Sensor Data, Yusuf Shodiyevich Avazov

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

This article examines the problem of detecting and predicting industrial equipment faults using IoT sensor data through machine learning techniques. Sensor readings such as temperature, vibration, pressure, voltage, and current, as well as FFT-based features, were statistically analyzed. Class imbalance and low signal informativeness were identified as key factors limiting model accuracy. Results obtained from Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and XGBoost models were comparatively evaluated, showing that when ROC-AUC values remain around 0.5, distinguishing fault and non-fault states becomes challenging. Correlation and feature-importance analyses confirmed the absence of strong dominant indicators. The findings highlight the need to improve sensor architecture …

Chemical Technology, Control and Management

In modern digital systems, efficient and reliable information exchange is essential for the stability of corporate systems. Traditional data management models struggle to detect and eliminate invalid, incomplete data at early stages, resulting in reduced accuracy and system inefficiency. This article proposes an advanced framework for controlling information exchange processes through the development of a Verification and Filtering algorithm. The algorithm operates within a multi-layered conceptual model that includes data input, control, validation, optimization, and decision layers. Acting as the core component, the Verification and Filtering algorithm distinguishes valid from invalid records in real time, ensuring data integrity before storage. …

Mechanical Improvements And Control Implementation On A Biomimetic Quadruped Model, Matthew Jack Lutz

Dissertations and Theses

Robotic development started billions of years after earth first began biological prototyping. While the evolutionary process in animals is quite different from robotic prototyping, it still remains no surprise that animals remain more agile, more efficient, and more adaptable than even the most advanced engineered robots to date, simply due to the sheer length of their improvement process. While bridging this improvement gap between deficits in robots and the abilities of animals is difficult, a specific subfield of robotics engineering has attempted to do so using biomimetic robotics. At Portland State, the Agile and Adaptive Robotics Lab (AARL) studies these …
