Routing in Data Networks

We have frequently referred to the routing algorithm as the network layer protocol that guides packets through the communication subnet to their correct destination. The times at which routing decisions are made depend on whether the network uses datagrams or virtual circuits. In a datagram network, two successive packets of the same user pair may travel along different routes, and a routing de…

ORAL LITERATURE IN AFRICA

When I first became interested in research into one particular form of African oral literature in 1961, I found to my surprise that there was no easily accessible work to which I could turn to give me some idea of what was known in this field, the various publications available, or the controversies and problems that demanded further investigation. In fact, I gradually discovered, there was an …

Information Revelation and Privacy in Online Social Networks

Participation in social networking sites has dramatically in- creased in recent years. Services such as Friendster, Tribe, or the Facebook allow millions of individuals to create online profiles and share personal information with vast networks of friends - and, often, unknown numbers of strangers. In this paper we study patterns of information revelation in online social networks and their pr…

Social networking sites and our lives

Questions have been raised about the social impact of widespread use of social networking sites (SNS) like Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, and Twitter. Do these technologies isolate people and truncate their relationships? Or are there benefits associated with being connected to others in this way? The Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project decided to examine SNS in a survey that…

Criminal Law, Procedure, and Evidence

The American sense of liberty and individual rights springs from the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These documents provide the guidelines for all federal, state, and local laws; they guarantee that the United States will remain a nation governed by the rule of law. They also balance society’s need to achieve social control, order, and safety against the individual’s right to l…

Random Graphs and Complex Networks

In this book, we study random graphs as models for real-world networks. Since 1999, many real-world networks have been investigated. These networks turned out to have rather different properties than classical random graph models, for example in the number of connections the elements in the network make. As a result, a wealth of new models was invented to capture these properties. This book su…

Human Rights Protection in Global Politics

The 2005 World Summit recognized the responsibility to protect. In one sense, this might be considered a normative revolution: a sign that the international human rights regime has reached a middle stage in a ‘lifecycle’ that has the potential to end in states’ internalization of the obligations of human rights protection (Finnemore and Sikkink 1998). In another sense, however, this was…

Uncommon Goods

It has been a productive challenge to write an introductory book on contemporary readymade practices that would appeal to a broad and critical audience. Despite its accruing history and heavily validated art historical pedigree, the readymade can still be mystifying to art viewers. I wanted to write a book that would address this—not by simply rehashing its history with new little twists, but…
