Developing a critical caste analysis within information science and technology: A research review: An annual review of information science and technology paper

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Caste—an ascriptive social hierarchy in South Asia and its diaspora—is a globalized phenomenon. Recent caste‐based discrimination, particularly in technology companies and anti‐caste efforts to address it, has compelled academia, policy, and the technology industry to better understand contemporary mechanics of caste.

Beyond a number game: Flat team structures improve inclusion and performance in diverse scientific teams

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The promises and perils about scientific team diversity are still debated in the scholarly literature, partly because the importance of underrepresented groups is not fully recognized or valued. In this paper, we summarize two perspectives on team diversity in science: horizontal differences and vertical disparity. Horizontal differences refer

The role of editorial boards in shaping scholarly communication: A large‐scale mapping of their composition and structure

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Editorial boards play a central role in shaping scholarly communication by influencing what research is published and how disciplinary boundaries are defined. Despite their importance, large‐scale, systematic evidence on their composition and structure remains limited.

Modeling and parameter estimation for fractional large‐scale interconnected Hammerstein systems

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper addresses the challenge of modeling and identifying large‐scale interconnected systems exhibiting memory effects, hereditary properties, and non‐local interactions. We propose a fractional‐order extension of the Hammerstein architecture that incorporates Grünwald–Letnikov operators to capture complex dynamics through multiple ...

Cultural appropriation in Messiaenâs rhythmic language

, 2016
Bruhn (2008) and Griffiths (1978) have referred in passing to Messiaenâs use of non-Western content as an appropriation, but a consideration of its potential moral and aesthetic failings within the scope of modern literature on artistic cultural ...

Performance improvement of discrete‐time linear‐quadratic regulators applied to uncertain linear systems using the Tikhonov regularization method

Asian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract The linear‐quadratic regulator (LQR) problem of optimal control of an uncertain discrete‐time linear system (DTLS) is revisited in this paper from the perspective of Tikhonov regularization. We show that an optimally chosen regularization parameter reduces, compared to the classical LQR, the values of a scalar error function, as well as the ...

Oscillation criteria for impulsive dynamic equations on time scales

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2007
Oscillation criteria for impulsive dynamic equations on time scales are obtained via impulsive inequality. An example is given to show that the impulses play a dominant part in the oscillations of dynamic equations on time scales.

Listening to Hong Kong children's perspectives through pretend play

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) has become an increasing concern in recent years. The issue has been regularly discussed by different stakeholders. However, the rising concern regarding quality in ECEC has not seriously taken into account children's perspectives.

Inequality and Trust Dynamics

, 2019
This chapter takes a close look at the interconnection between social trust and income inequality across countries. It argues that trust is both a consequence and a determinant of income equality. Small income differences create trust and trust feeds back on small income differences through an expansion of the welfare state. Together the two mechanisms,
