Trump said on Friday that he will send national guard troops to Memphis as part of his administration’s expanding military occupation of Democratic-run cities
“I think maybe I’ll be the first to say it right now: we’re going to Memphis,” said Trump while strumming a guitar.
The Memphis mayor, Paul Young, had signaled the intervention was coming.
“Earlier this week I was informed that the government and the president were considering deploying the national guard,”
he sa…

email_company: Manufacturing company email (2010)
A network of emails among employee email addresses at a mid-sized manufacturing company. Each directed edge represents an email sent from address i to address j. Edges are timestamped, and occurred over a 6 month period in an unspecified year.
This network has 167 nodes and 82927 edges.

MALRIS: Malicious Hardware in RIS-Assisted Wireless Communications
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) enhance wireless communication by dynamically shaping the propagation environment, but their integration introduces hardware-level security risks. This paper presents the concept of Malicious RIS (MALRIS), where compromised components behave adversarially, even under passive operation. The focus of this work is on practical threats such as manufacturing time tampering, malicious firmware, and partial element control. Two representative attacks, power-sp…

Manifestations of Empathy in Software Engineering: How, Why, and When It Matters
Empathy plays a crucial role in software engineering (SE), influencing collaboration, communication, and decision-making. While prior research has highlighted the importance of empathy in SE, there is limited understanding of how empathy manifests in SE practice, what motivates SE practitioners to demonstrate empathy, and the factors that influence empathy in SE work. Our study explores these aspects through 22 interviews and a large scale survey with 116 software practitioners. Our findings pr…

Heterogeneously integrated lithium tantalate-on-silicon nitride modulators for high-speed communications
Driven by the prospects of higher bandwidths for optical interconnects, integrated modulators involving materials beyond those available in silicon manufacturing increasingly rely on the Pockels effect. For instance, wafer-scale bonding of lithium niobate films onto ultralow loss silicon nitride photonic integrated circuits provides heterogeneous integrated devices with low modulation voltages operating at higher speeds than silicon photonics. However, in spite of its excellent electro-optic mo…

A Service Architecture for Dataspaces
Dataspaces are designed to support sovereign, trusted and decentralized data exchange between participants forming an ecosystem. They are standardized by initiatives such as the International Data Spaces Association or Gaia-X and have gained adoption in several domains such as mobility, manufacturing, tourism or culture. In dataspaces, participants use connectors to communicate peer-to-peer. The Eclipse Dataspace Components (EDC) Connector is a broadly adopted, open-source implementation that a…

'The digital commons should not be treated as an object ripe for extraction, but as an expression of “commoning” [Dulong de Rosnay and Stalder 2020]; i.e., as a manifestation of the practice of making, maintaining, and protecting shared and open resources.'

Generative AI and the Future of the Digital Commons: Five Open Questions and Knowledge Gaps
The rapid advancement of Generative AI (GenAI) relies heavily on the digital commons, a vast collection of free and open online content that is created, shared, and maintained by communities. However, this relationship is becoming increasingly strained due to financial burdens, decreased contributions, and misalignment between AI models and community norms. As we move deeper into the GenAI era, it is essential to examine the interdependent relationship between GenAI, the long-term sustainabilit…
