Algorithmic Rights and Protections for Children

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2023-06-27

  • Publisher: MIT Press

Essays on the challenges and risks of designing algorithms and platforms for children, with an emphasis on algorithmic justice, learning, and equity. One in three Internet users worldwide is a child, and what children see and experience online is increasingly shaped by algorithms. Though children’s rights and protections are at the center of debates on digital privacy, safety, and Internet governance, the dominant online platforms have not been constructed with the needs and interests of children in mind. The editors of this volume, Mizuko Ito, Remy Cross, Karthik Dinakar, and Candice Odgers, focus on understanding diverse children’s evolving relationships with algorithms, digital data, ...

Disability Interactions

Disability interactions (DIX) is a new approach to combining cross-disciplinary methods and theories from Human Computer Interaction (HCI), disability studies, assistive technology, and social development to co-create new technologies, experiences, and ways of working with disabled people. DIX focuses on the interactions people have with their technologies and the interactions which result because of technology use. A central theme of the approach is to tackle complex issues where disability problems are part of a system that does not have a simple solution. Therefore, DIX pushes researchers and practitioners to take a challenge-based approach, which enables both applied and basic research t...

  • Publisher: CRC Press

Traditional remedial technologies can be cost-prohibitive and sometimes contribute to environmental contamination themselves. In order to better manage the issues of global pollution, phytoremediation, a plant-based cleanup method, has gained attention as an efficient, affordable, and environmentally sustainable alternative to traditional remedial technologies for the cleanup of a variety of hazardous pollutants. The demand for advanced technologies having potential to sustainably manage waste and pollutants in the environment will help to continue the quest for more novel treatment methods. Sustainable Management of Environmental Pollutants through Phytoremediation discusses all the aspects of sustainable environmental management through phytoremediation, making it a valuable resource for both academics and researchers in developing and developed countries. Examines technology advancements made toward the recycling and management of waste. Designed in a way to cover scientific principles, modeling and methods, designs, and reference data. Discusses the utilization of waste for renewable energy for economic growth and further social benefits.

A guide to understanding the inner workings and outer limits of technology and why we should never assume that computers always get it right. In Artificial Unintelligence, Meredith Broussard argues that our collective enthusiasm for applying computer technology to every aspect of life has resulted in a tremendous amount of poorly designed systems. We are so eager to do everything digitally—hiring, driving, paying bills, even choosing romantic partners—that we have stopped demanding that our technology actually work. Broussard, a software developer and journalist, reminds us that there are fundamental limits to what we can (and should) do with technology. With this book, she offers a guid...

Pandemic Ethics

The COVID-19 pandemic is a defining event of the 21st century. It has taken over eighteen million lives, closed national borders, put whole populations into quarantine and devastated economies. Yet while COVID-19 is catastrophic, it is not unique. Children who have been home-schooled during COVID-19 will almost certainly face another pandemic in their lifetime - one at least as bad-and potentially much worse-than this one. The WHO has referred to such a future (currently unknown) pathogen as “Disease X”. The defining feature of a pandemic is its scale-the simultaneous threat to millions or even billions of lives. That scale leads to unavoidable ethical dilemmas since the lives and liveli...

19th International Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security

These proceedings represent the work of contributors to the 19th International Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security (ICCWS 2024), hosted University of Johannesburg, South Africa on 26-27 March 2024. The Conference Chair was Dr. Jaco du Toit, University of Johannesburg, South Africa, and the Program Chair was Prof Brett van Niekerk, from Durban University of Technology. South Africa. ICCWS is a well-established event on the academic research calendar and now in its 19th year, the key aim remains the opportunity for participants to share ideas and meet the people who hold them. The scope of papers will ensure an interesting two days. The subjects covered this year illustrate the wide range of topics that fall into this important and ever-growing area of research.
