SDR-Based All-Optical MIMO Wireless Hybrid IoT Sensor Networks

IEEE Access
In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate and analyze the performance of a software-defined radio (SDR)-based all-optical multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless hybrid communication link for indoor Internet of Things (IoT) sensor networks.

SMART CITY CONTROL ROOMS: The Rewiring of Local Governance Landscapes in India

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Smart city control rooms are prominent components of the smart city discourse. They embody a long‐standing dream to visualize and manage multiple urban processes in real time through the collation of data flows. Previous research has produced important insights into the design, construction and operation of these facilities.

CONSULTANCY STATE: Government as (a) Service and the Anti‐politics of Technological Expertise in Indian Cities

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article analyses ideas of ‘good governance through technology’ in India that first emerged from the software industry, symbolizing state support for the ‘new middle‐class’ values of liberalized private enterprise. We suggest that the contemporary prominence of consulting firms in government represents a second transformation that embeds ...

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...

Millimeter-precision positioning for wide-angle indoor area enabled by metalens-integrated camera

Nanophotonics
Due to signal shielding caused by building structures, conventional mature positioning technologies such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) are only suitable for outdoor navigation and detection.

Decentralized propaganda in the era of digital media: The massive presence of the Chinese state on Douyin

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The rise of social media in the digital era poses unprecedented challenges to authoritarian regimes that aim to influence public attitudes and behaviors. To address these challenges, we argue that authoritarian regimes have adopted a decentralized approach to produce and disseminate propaganda on social media.

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of

Integrative Computational and Experimental Approaches Reveal the Protective Role of Moderate Caffeine Intake Against Apical Periodontitis Induced Bone Loss

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate whether moderate systemic caffeine intake modulates the progression of apical periodontitis (AP) and associated alveolar bone loss, combining in vivo rat experiments with in silico molecular docking to explore potential mechanisms. Methodology Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to four groups (n = 8 per group): control,

Revisiting PSF models: Unifying framework and high‐performance implementation

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Localisation microscopy often relies on detailed models of point‐spread functions. For applications such as deconvolution or PSF engineering, accurate models for light propagation in imaging systems with a high numerical aperture are required. Different models have been proposed based on 2D Fourier transforms or 1D Bessel integrals.
