SAFER-D: A Self-Adaptive Security Framework for Distributed Computing Architectures
The rise of the Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems has introduced new challenges on ensuring secure and robust communication. The growing number of connected devices increases network complexity, leading to higher latency and traffic. Distributed computing architectures (DCAs) have gained prominence to address these issues. This shift has significantly expanded the attack surface, requiring additional security measures to protect all components -- from sensors and actuators to edge n…

Moment-like maps and real algebraic functions with prescribed preimages
We discuss a problem on singularity theory of differentiable (smooth) or real algebraic maps which is different from knowing existence and has been difficult: constructing explcit real algebraic functions. We discuss construction of real algebraic functions with exactly one singular value, the singular points being of definite type, and prescribed preimages of single points. We discuss generalizations of the canonical projection of the unit sphere around the pole and the Morse-Bott functions …

Trash panda update: they're not gone but seem to be starting to learn we don't like them. The super soaker is the weapon of choice - they hate it but it doesn't do any permanent damage.
I had one pop out in broad daylight earlier and pummeled it with the super soaker until it climbed up a tree out of range.
Another one showed up after dark and froze when I walked out the back door, maybe it thought I couldn't see it?
It thought wrong.
EDIT: The one in…

Exploring MAXI J1744-294: IXPE insights into a Newly Discovered X-ray Transient
We present the first IXPE spectro-polarimetric observation of the black hole candidate MAXI J1744$-$294, a transient X-ray source discovered during a bright 2025 outburst in the Galactic center region. During the $\sim$150 ks observation, the source was found in the soft state, and its spectrum was well described by an absorbed multicolor disk with a minor high-energy tail. No significant polarization was detected, and we derived a 3$σ$ upper limit on the polarization degree of $1.3\%$ in the …

Bias Variation Compensation in Perimeter-Gated SPAD TRNGs
Random number generators that utilize arrays of entropy source elements suffer from bias variation (BV). Despite the availability of efficient debiasing algorithms, optimized implementations of hardware friendly options depend on the bit bias in the raw bit streams and cannot accommodate a wide BV. In this work, we present a 64 x 64 array of perimeter gated single photon avalanche diodes (pgSPADs), fabricated in a 0.35 μm standard CMOS technology, as a source of entropy to generate random bina…

zu hause sitze ich auf einem swopper und einem mishu, in meinem büro sitze ich auf einem swopper – für normale schreibtischstühle bin ich verdorben. 🙃 daher habe ich mir für mein zweitbüro in unserer bibliothek im vom-stein-haus jetzt einen ergonomischen hocker von "trendoffice" gegönnt. 😊
[und wenn ich nicht vor ort bin, könnten meine kolleginnen ihn sich gerne ausleihen.]
