Design is an activity that is central and pervasive in our lives. It is an activity we must understand and one we must be able to do well! This is made difficult by the fact that (1) how we view design changes with the way we view our world, (2) there is no common understanding of the term design, and (3) while design researchers and design practitioners both have much to contribute, they are s...

Abstract This History of Education Society Presidential Address comes at the society's sixtieth anniversary and provides a new conceptual framework that foregrounds recognizing “racist-blind,” not color-blind, ideology in intentional unequal design our educational past present. It highlights systemic racism brought on by dual pandemic moments COVID-19 global racial unrest, with call to action f...

In this paper, we give a provably secure design for blind signatures, the most important ingredient for anonymity in off-line electronic cash systems. Previous examples of blind signature schemes were constructed from traditional signature schemes with only the additional proof of blindness. The design of some of the underlying signature schemes can be validated by a proof in the so-called rand...

Abstract The idea of employing deep autoencoders (AEs) has been recently proposed to capture the end-to-end performance in physical layer communication systems. However, most current methods for applying AEs are developed based on assumption that there exists an explicit channel model training matches actual online transmission. variation indeed imposes a major limitation AE-based In this paper...
