Operationalizing Supply-Chain Hygiene In Graduate Is Education: A Hands-On Module For Secure Software And Ai/Ml Pipelines, Dominic A. Wilson Jun 2026

Operationalizing Supply-Chain Hygiene In Graduate Is Education: A Hands-On Module For Secure Software And Ai/Ml Pipelines, Dominic A. Wilson

Journal of Cybersecurity Education, Research and Practice

Supply-chain attacks (including typosquatting, dependency confusion, compromised builds, dataset poisoning, and backdoored models) pose growing threats to analytics platforms central to Information Systems (IS). While frameworks like the Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF) and Supply-chain Levels for Software Artifacts (SLSA) offer guidance, IS curricula often lack accessible, infrastructure-light modules that build practical skills for mitigating these risks. This experience report presents a two-week module embedded in a graduate Secure Coding course required for a Master’s in Applied Security and Analytics degree. The module operationalizes secure development habits across both traditional software and machine learning (ML) pipelines. The module addresses a …

Parametric Modular Answer Set Programs Made Declarative, Jorge Fandinno, Yuliya Lierler, Torsten Schaub Jun 2026

Parametric Modular Answer Set Programs Made Declarative, Jorge Fandinno, Yuliya Lierler, Torsten Schaub

Computer Science Faculty Publications

In this paper, we explore the concept of modularity in first-order answer set programming (ASP). We introduce a new formalism called parametric modular logic programs, which allows defining subprograms with parameters and intensionality statements. We demonstrate how this formalism can capture the semantics of clingo-programs with collective control , a feature that enables structuring and instantiating subprograms. We provide theoretical foundations for modular ASP, illustrate its usefulness, and connect to traditional non-modular ASP.

Li+/Na+ Hybrid Ion Conduction Mechanism In The Superionic Conductor Li3–XNaXZr2Si2Po12, Yi-Hong Wu, Xia Xie, Lei Zhu, Mu-Ran Yu, Guo-Tai Zhang, Jun-Chao Chen, Shu-Ying Sun, You-Wei Wang, Wei-Ping Tang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Hybrid ion conductors that transport multiple ionic conductive species provide a useful platform for understanding how mixed-ion transport governs ionic conductivity within a single phase. However, the controlled introduction of multiple mobile ions into solid-state electrolytes and a mechanistic understanding of their migration within the framework remain challenging. Herein, a skeleton-retained Li+↔Na+ cationic exchange was used to simultaneously induce Li+ and Na+ cations into the NASICON-type framework of Li3–xNaxZr2Si2PO12 (0 < x < 3). We show that the interpenetration of NaO6 and NaO8 coordination polyhedra significantly influences the ionic conductivity of hybrid ion conductors. Computational …

Journal of Electrochemistry

Molecular catalysts serve as ideal platforms for studying electrocatalytic reaction mechanisms. While current research mainly focuses on modulating central metals or surrounding ligands, the influence of molecular spatial configuration remains largely unexplored. Herein, we synthesized two cobalt complexes with similar ligand environments but distinct spatial geometries, a planar cobalt hexaazamacrocyclic complex (CoHAM) and a non-planar acyclic Co(phen)2Cl2, and evaluated their performance in CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR). The planar CoHAM exhibited dramatically superior CO2RR performance compared to the non-planar Co(phen)2Cl2. Through a series of combined analyses using in-situ …

Distribution And Transport Of Lithium Ions At Interfaces Between Graphite And Carboxymethyl Celluloses, Zi-Jun Huang, Zhen-Ying Zheng, Hua-Wei Cao, Jian Wang, Qing-Feng Zhang, Sheng-Li Chen Jun 2026

Distribution And Transport Of Lithium Ions At Interfaces Between Graphite And Carboxymethyl Celluloses, Zi-Jun Huang, Zhen-Ying Zheng, Hua-Wei Cao, Jian Wang, Qing-Feng Zhang, Sheng-Li Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a water-processable binder widely used for graphite anodes. However, a microscopic understanding of why the identity of CMC counterions (Li+/Na+/K+) strongly affects electrode performance remains limited. Here, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to track Li+ transport accessibility across electrolyte/CMC/graphite three-phase interfaces, comparing pure CMC-Li, CMC-Na, CMC-K, and mixed-counterion CMC binders. We find that CMC-Li sustains a continuous Li+ transport pathway from the electrolyte through the binder phase toward graphite. In contrast, in CMC-Na and CMC-K, Na+/K+ ions preferentially enrich at the graphite/binder interface, forming …
