Computer and Network Security

In the era of Internet of Things (IoT), and with the explosive worldwide growth of electronic data volume and the associated needs of processing, analyzing, and storing this data, several new challenges have emerged. Particularly, there is a need for novel schemes of secure authentication, integrity protection, encryption, and non-repudiation to protect the privacy of sensitive data and to secure systems. Lightweight symmetric key cryptography and adaptive network security algorithms are in demand for mitigating these challenges. This book presents state-of-the-art research in the fields of cryptography and security in computing and communications. It covers a wide range of topics such as machine learning, intrusion detection, steganography, multi-factor authentication, and more. It is a valuable reference for researchers, engineers, practitioners, and graduate and doctoral students working in the fields of cryptography, network security, IoT, and machine learning.

Gender Trouble Makers

  • Publisher: Routledge

International development efforts aimed at improving girls’ lives and education have been well-intended, somewhat effective, but ultimately short-sighted and incomplete. This is because international development efforts often operate under a reductive understanding of the term 'gender' and how it influences the lives of girls and boys. Gender is more commonly conceived by international efforts as characteristics which are ascribed to girls as norms for behaviour. In particular, the analysis in Gender Trouble Makers focuses on the social constructions of gender and the ways in which gender was reinforced and maintained through a case study in rural Nepal. In developing countries like Nepal, promoting access to and participation in existing formal education programme is clearly necessary, but it is not, in itself, sufficient to transform gender power relations in the broader society. When gender is properly addressed as a process, then all stakeholders involved - researchers, governmental officials, and community members - can begin to understand and devise more effective ways to increase both girl and boy students’ enrollment, participation, and success in school.

Serving Library Users from Asia

Asian populations are among some of the fastest growing cultural groups in the US. While books on serving other target groups in libraries have been published (e.g., disabled, Latino, seniors, etc.), few books on serving library users of Asian heritage have been written. Thus the timely need for this book. Rather than a generalized overview of Asians as a whole, this book has 24 separate chapters—each on 24 specific Asian countries/cultures of East, Southeast, and South Asia—with a wealth of resources for understanding, interacting with, outreaching to, and serving library users of each culture. Resources include cultural guides (both print and online), language helps (with sample librar...
