June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. FREQUENCY MODULATION
Frequency modulation (FM) is a method of impressing data onto an alternating-current (AC)
wave by varying the instantaneous frequency of the wave. This scheme can be used with analog or
digital data
.
In analog FM, the frequency of the AC signal wave, also called the carrier, varies in a continuous
manner. Thus, there are infinitely many possible carrier frequencies. In narrowband FM, commonly used
in two-way wireless communications, the instantaneous carrier frequency varies by up to 5 kilohertz
(kHz, where 1 kHz = 1000 hertz or alternating cycles per second) above and below the frequency of the
carrier with no modulation. In wideband FM, used in wireless broadcasting, the instantaneous frequency
varies by up to several megahertz (MHz, where 1 MHz = 1,000,000 Hz). When the instantaneous input
wave has positive polarity, the carrier frequency shifts in one direction; when the instantaneous input
wave has negative polarity, the carrier frequency shifts in the opposite direction. At every instant in
time, the extent of carrier-frequency shift (the deviation) is directly proportional to the extent to which
the signal amplitude is positive or negative.
In digital FM, the carrier frequency shifts abruptly, rather than varying continuously. The
number of possible carrier frequency states is usually a power of 2. If there are only two possible
frequency states, the mode is called frequency-shift keying (FSK). In more complex modes, there can be
four, eight, or more different frequency states. Each specific carrier frequency represents a specific
digital input data state.
Frequency modulation is similar in practice to phase modulation (PM). When the instantaneous
frequency of a carrier is varied, the instantaneous phase changes as well. The converse also holds: When
the instantaneous phase is varied, the instantaneous frequency changes. But FM and PM are not exactly
equivalent, especially in analog applications. When an FM receiver is used to demodulate a PM signal, or
when an FM signal is intercepted by a receiver designed for PM, the audio is distorted. This is because
the relationship between frequency and phase variations is not linear; that is, frequency and phase do
not vary in direct proportion.
3. TYPES OF FREQUENCY MODULATION
The bandwidth of an FM signal depends on the deviation Kff(t). When the deviation is high, the
bandwidth will be large, and vice-versa. From the equation Δω = Kf f(t) it is clear that deviation is
controlled by Kff (t) (where Δω = frequency deviation). Thus, for a given f (t), the deviation, and hence,
bandwidth will depend on frequency sensitivity Kf. If Kf is too small then the bandwidth will be narrow
and vice-versa. Thus depending on the value of Kf, FM can be divided into two categories.
(1) Narrow band FM: - When Kf is small, the bandwidth of FM is narrow.
(2) Wide band FM: - When Kf has an appreciable value, then the FM signal has a wide
bandwidth. Ideally it is infinite.
Narrow Band Frequency Modulation
The general expression for FM in the phasor form is given by ΦFM(t) = A ej*ωct +Kfg(t)]
For a narrow band FM, Kf g(t) <<1 for all value of t. Hence ejKfg(t) ≈ 1 + j Kfg(t)
And FM phasor expression becomes ΦFM(t) ≈ A *1 + jKfg(t)] ejωct
The FM signal is the real part of its phasor representation, ΦFM(t) ≈ Re* ΦFM(t)+ = A cosωct - A
Kfg(t) sinωct
The above expression of narrow band FM is very much similar to the expression of the AM
(Amplitude modulation) signal, with only a slight modification. In AM all the three components i.e.,
carrier and two sidebands are in phase, but in narrow band FM, the lower sideband is 180 degree out of
the phase with respect to carrier as well as upper sideband. Thus the bandwidth of a narrow band FM is
same as that of the AM.
Generation of Narrowband FM:
Above equation suggest methods for generating the narrow band FM. The sideband terms are
obtained by a balanced modulator, as in Double sideband suppressed carrier amplitude modulation
(DSB-SC) systems and then the carrier term is added t sideband terms. The method for generating
narrow band FM is shown in the figure drawn below. The block diagrams satisfy the corresponding
expression for FM.
Carrier generator generates the carrier signal, and then 90 degree phase-shifter provides the
shift in the carrier signal. After that, this signal is fed to balance modulator in which another signal g (t) is
also fed which is the output of integrator, whereas f(t) is the input to the integrator. After balance
modulator the signal goes to adder where signal is added with unmodified carrier signal. The output of
the adder is required signal i.e., FM signal.
Wide Band Frequency Modulation :
When Kf has larger value, then the signal has a wide bandwidth, ideally infinite and the signal is
called wideband signal. The general equation of wideband FM is given by
4. ΦFm (t) = AJ0(mf)cosωct + AJ1(mf)*cos(ωc+ωm)t - cos(ωc-ωm)t] +AJ2(mf)*cos(ωc + 2ωm)t + cos(ωc - 2ωmt)] +
AJ3(mf) *cos(ωc + 3ωm)t - cos(ωc - 3ωm)t] + ...
Wide Band Frequency Modulation : Frequency Components
The FM signal has the following frequency components:
Carrier term cosωct with magnitude AJ0 (mf), i.e. the magnitude of the carrier term is reduced by
a factor J0 (mf) here, J0 is the Bessel function coefficient and mf is known as modulation index of the FM
wave. It is defined as the “ratio of frequency deviation to the modulating frequency. The modulation
index mf decides whether an FM wave is a narrowband or a wideband because it is directly proportional
to the frequency deviation. Normally mf = 0.5 is the transition point between a narrowband and a
wideband FM. If mf<0.5, then FM is a narrowband, otherwise it is a wideband. As discussed, when m f is
large, the FM produces a large number of sidebands and the bandwidth of FM is quite large. Such
systems are called wideband FM.
Theoretically infinite numbers of sidebands are produced, and the amplitude of each sideband is
decided by the corresponding Bessel function Jn (mf). The presence of infinite number of sidebands
makes the ideal bandwidth of the FM signal is infinite. However, the sidebands with small amplitudes
are ignored. The sidebands having considerable amplitudes are known as significant sidebands. They are
finite in numbers.
Power content in FM signal: Since the amplitude of FM remains unchanged, the power of the
FM signal is same as that of unmodulated carrier. (i.e.` A^2/2` ) where A is amplitude of signal.
5. MODULATION INDEX
As with other modulation indices, this quantity indicates by how much the modulated variable varies
around its unmodulated level. It relates to the variations in the frequency of the carrier signal:
where is the highest frequency component present in the modulating signal xm(t), and is
the Peak frequency-deviation, i.e. the maximum deviation of the instantaneous frequency from the
carrier frequency. If , the modulation is called narrowband FM, and its bandwidth is
approximately .
If , the modulation is called wideband FM and its bandwidth is approximately . While
wideband FM uses more bandwidth, it can improve signal-to-noise ratio significantly. For example,
doubling the value of while keeping fm constant, results in an eight-fold improvement in the signal
to noise ratio.[1] Compare with Chirp spread spectrum, which uses extremely wide frequency deviations
to achieve processing gains comparable to more traditional, better-known spread spectrum modes.
With a tone-modulated FM wave, if the modulation frequency is held constant and the modulation
index is increased, the (non-negligible) bandwidth of the FM signal increases, but the spacing between
spectra stays the same; some spectral components decrease in strength as others increase. If the
frequency deviation is held constant and the modulation frequency increased, the spacing between
spectra increases.
Frequency modulation can be classified as narrow band if the change in the carrier frequency is about
the same as the signal frequency, or as wide-band if the change in the carrier frequency is much higher
(modulation index >1) than the signal frequency. [2] For example, narrowband FM is used for two way
radio systems such as Family Radio Service where the carrier is allowed to deviate only 2.5 kHz above
and below the center frequency, carrying speech signals of no more than 3.5 kHz bandwidth. Wide-band
FM is used for FM broadcasting where music and speech is transmitted with up to 75 kHz deviation from
the center frequency, carrying audio with up to 20 kHz bandwidth.

Hence, the total power in the infinite spectrum is

By this method we would need to carry out an infinite number of calculations to find PT. But, considering
the waveform, the peak value is Vc, which is constant.

Since we know that the RMS value of a sine wave is

and power = (VRMS) then we may deduce that PT

Hence, if we know Vc for the FM signal, we can find the total power PT for the infinite spectrum with a
simple calculation.
Now consider – if we generate an FM signal, it will contain an infinite number of sidebands. However, if
we wish to transfer this signal, e.g. over a radio or cable, this implies that we require an infinite
bandwidth channel. Even if there was an infinite channel bandwidth it would not all be allocated to one
user. Only a limited bandwidth is available for any particular signal. Thus we have to make the signal
spectrum fit into the available channel bandwidth. We can think of the signal spectrum as a ‘train’ and
the channel bandwidth as a tunnel – obviously we make the train slightly less wider than the tunnel if
we can.
However, many signals (e.g. FM, square waves, digital signals) contain an infinite number of
components. If we transfer such a signal via a limited channel bandwidth, we will lose some of the
components and the output signal will be distorted. If we put an infinitely wide train through a tunnel,
the train would come out distorted, the question is how much distortion can be tolerated? Generally
speaking, spectral components decrease in amplitude as we move away
from the spectrum ‘centre’.

With reference to FM the minimum channel bandwidth required would be just wide enough to pass the
spectrum of significant components. For a bandlimited FM spectrum, let a = the number of sideband
pairs, e.g. for = 5, a = 8 pairs (16 components). Hence, power in the bandlimited spectrum PBL is
