A “Tech First” Approach to Foreign Policy? The Three Meanings of Tech Diplomacy
Global Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Scholars have recently argued that international politics is plagued by instability as the world rapidly transitions from one crisis to another. This state of “Permacrisis,” or permanent crises between states, is driven by technological innovations which create new kinds of crises and drive competitions between adversarial states.

Exact and efficient simulation of concordant computation
New Journal of Physics, 2015 Concordant computation is a circuit-based model of quantum computation for mixed states, that assumes that all correlations within the register are discord-free (i.e. the correlations are essentially classical) at every step of the computation.
