Understanding Media Propaganda in the 21st Century
First published in 1988, Herman and Chomskyâ (TM)s Manufacturing Consent remains the go-to book for those interested in understanding why the mainstream media act as vehicles for power-elite propaganda. The analytical heart of Manufacturing Consent lies in what it calls â ~The Propaganda Model.â (TM) According to this model, there are five filters which all newsworthy stories have to pass through before reaching the public sphere. However, a lot has changed in the subsequent thirty-something years. Consequently, a key question that needs to be addressed is whether Manufacturing Consent is still fit for purpose. The conceit underpinning Understanding Media Propaganda in the 21st Century: M...
Queueing Networks
This handbook aims to highlight fundamental, methodological and computational aspects of networks of queues to provide insights and to unify results that can be applied in a more general manner. The handbook is organized into five parts: Part 1 considers exact analytical results such as of product form type. Topics include characterization of product forms by physical balance concepts and simple traffic flow equations, classes of service and queue disciplines that allow a product form, a unified description of product forms for discrete time queueing networks, insights for insensitivity, and aggregation and decomposition results that allow sub networks to be aggregated into single nodes to r...
Stochastic Processes: Theory and Methods
This volume in the series contains chapters on areas such as pareto processes, branching processes, inference in stochastic processes, Poisson approximation, Levy processes, and iterated random maps and some classes of Markov processes. Other chapters cover random walk and fluctuation theory, a semigroup representation and asymptomatic behavior of certain statistics of the Fisher-Wright-Moran coalescent, continuous-time ARMA processes, record sequence and their applications, stochastic networks with product form equilibrium, and stochastic processes in insurance and finance. Other subjects include renewal theory, stochastic processes in reliability, supports of stochastic processes of multiplicity one, Markov chains, diffusion processes, and Ito's stochastic calculus and its applications. c.

Security Protocols
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Security Protocols held in Cambridge, UK in April 1998. The 15 revised papers presented as position statements are followed by transcripts of the discussions between the authors and the audience. Also included is a report on the final panel discussion on future directions in security protocols research and developments. Thus the volume reflects the lively interaction at the workshop. The papers are devoted to the interrelations between trust and delegation, exploring the implications and effects of these upon such issues as authorization, security policy, and cryptosystems and component design.

Security Protocols XXIII
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 23rd International Workshop on Security Protocols, held in Cambridge, UK, in March/April 2015. After an introduction the volume presents 18 revised papers each followed by a revised transcript of the presentation and ensuing discussion at the event. The theme of this year's workshop is "Information Security in Fiction and in Fact".
Security Protocols XVII
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 17th International Workshop on Security Protocols, SP 2009, held in Cambridge, UK, in April 2009. The 17 revised full papers presented together with edited transcriptions of some of the discussions following the presentations have gone through multiple rounds of reviewing, revision, and selection. The theme of this workshop was "Brief Encounters". In the old days, security protocols were typically run first as preliminaries to, and later to maintain, relatively stable continuing relationships between relatively unchanging individual entities. Pervasive computing, e-bay and second life have shifted the ground: we now frequently desire a secure commitment to a particular community of entities, but relatively transient relationships with individual members of it, and we are often more interested in validating attributes than identity. The papers and discussions in this volume examine the theme from the standpoint of various different applications and adversaries.
Producing Indonesia
The 26 scholars contributing to this volume have helped shape the field of Indonesian studies over the last three decades. They represent a broad geographic background—Indonesia, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Australia, the United States, Canada—and have studied in a wide array of key disciplines—anthropology, history, linguistics and literature, government and politics, art history, and ethnomusicology. Together they reflect on the "arc of our field," the development of Indonesian studies over recent tumultuous decades. They consider what has been achieved and what still needs to be accomplished as they interpret the groundbreaking works of their predecessors and colleagues. Th...
Security Protocols XXV
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 25th International Workshop on Security Protocols, held in Cambridge, UK, in March 2017. The volume consists of 16 thoroughly revised invited papers presented together with the respective transcripts of discussions. The theme of this year's workshop was multi-objective security and the topics covered included security and privacy, formal methods and theory of security, systems security, network security, software and application security, human and societal aspects of security and privacy, security protocols, web protocol security, and mobile and wireless security.
