Data Cooperatives: Towards a Foundation for Decentralized Personal Data Management [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Data cooperatives with fiduciary obligations to members provide a promising direction for the empowerment of individuals through their own personal data. A data cooperative can manage, curate and protect access to the personal data of citizen members. Furthermore, the data cooperative can run internal analytics in order to obtain insights regarding the

Secure Wireless Communications via Cooperative Transmitting [PDF]

, 2013
Information theoretic secrecy is combined with cryptographic secrecy to create a secret-key exchange protocol for wireless networks. A network of transmitters, which already have cryptographically secured channels between them, cooperate to exchange a secret key with a new receiver at a random location, in the presence of passive eavesdroppers at ...

Nano‐Topography Enhanced Topological‐Cell‐Analysis in Radiation‐Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy, a treatment that implies exposition of cells to radiation, offers promise to treat cancer. Here, it is hypothesized that the nanoscale details of a scaffold can amplify the response of cells to radiation, measured through topological variables, providing ways to assess the efficacy of Radiotherapy treatment.

Darwinian Evolution of Cooperation via Punishment in the "Public Goods" Game [PDF]

Proc. 12th Intern. Conf, on Artificial Life, H. Fellerman et al, eds. (MIT Press, 2010) pp. 445-450, 2010
The evolution of cooperation has been a perennial problem for evolutionary biology because cooperation is undermined by selfish cheaters (or "free riders") that profit from cooperators but do not invest any resources themselves. In a purely "selfish" view of evolution, those cheaters should be favored.

User Cooperation for Enhanced Throughput Fairness in Wireless Powered Communication Networks [PDF]

, 2016
This paper studies a novel user cooperation method in a wireless powered communication network (WPCN), where a pair of distributed terminal users first harvest wireless energy broadcasted by one energy node (EN) and then use the harvested energy to transmit information cooperatively to a destination node (DN).

International cooperation on transboundary aquifers in South America and the Guarani Aquifer case

, 2016
International cooperation on groundwater takes many forms. The mobilization of different actors helps to promote cooperation initiatives in South America, where the most well known case is the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS). This article intends to analyze
