The ongoing debate in the EU and the US over the shape of the Internet
focuses mainly on the technological and economical aspects of the issue. This paper
is meant to be an introduction to the debate on the impact of the network neutrality
on free speech and the right to information in the field of political science. The author
tries to identify potential threats from the economic, technological and political perspective, as they are strongly interconnected.
Fundamental human rights can benefit from enforcing network neutrality regulations; however, a much more important issue is related to the question of what would
happen to the freedom of speech and the right of information if the regulations were
gone.
Net Neutrality: how its elimination might impact patients & healthcareKR_Barker
Net Neutrality is the principle that all Internet service providers should enable equal access to all content found on the web, regardless of its source. As the government considers whether to do away with net neutrality, it’s important to think about how the elimination of this principle might impact patients and healthcare, in areas including: telemedicine; remote monitoring; access to cloud-based EHRs; addressing health disparities; encouraging digitally-based healthcare innovation; and patient access to online health content such as articles and videos.

Sachpazis:Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Estimation in simple terms with Calculati...Dr.Costas Sachpazis
Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure. The Calculation HTML Code included.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Final project report on grocery store management system..pdfKamal Acharya
In today’s fast-changing business environment, it’s extremely important to be able to respond to client needs in the most effective and timely manner. If your customers wish to see your business online and have instant access to your products or services.
Online Grocery Store is an e-commerce website, which retails various grocery products. This project allows viewing various products available enables registered users to purchase desired products instantly using Paytm, UPI payment processor (Instant Pay) and also can place order by using Cash on Delivery (Pay Later) option. This project provides an easy access to Administrators and Managers to view orders placed using Pay Later and Instant Pay options.
In order to develop an e-commerce website, a number of Technologies must be studied and understood. These include multi-tiered architecture, server and client-side scripting techniques, implementation technologies, programming language (such as PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and MySQL relational databases. This is a project with the objective to develop a basic website where a consumer is provided with a shopping cart website and also to know about the technologies used to develop such a website.
This document will discuss each of the underlying technologies to create and implement an e- commerce website.

New Possibility in Computing
1. New Possibility in Computing
Dr. Varun Kumar
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 1 / 9
2. Outlines
1 Introduction to New Possibility in Computing
2 Computer Usage in Social Context
3 Moral and Legal Issues
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 2 / 9
3. Introduction to New Possibility in Computing
⇒ New technologies bring with them new possibilities for both good and
bad applications.
Activity 1
⇒ Day to day activity of a person.
⇒ Focus on those tasks which are non-computing related.
Are they any ethical guidelines for doing your job or activity?
How these ethical guidelines were developed over time, and are how
often changes are made to them.
What are the trigger of these changes if any?
⇒ Computers introduced new possibilities to many activities that we do.
⇒ In some cases, they allow people to do things that they have been
doing for years, but now in a different way.
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 3 / 9
4. Continued–
Usage of computer or computing device:
Data mining X
Consumers are able to buy goods on and offline using computers.
Computers allows for individual to be track without their knowledge.
Computers eliminates human contact, for better or for worse.
Computers give wide access to data and information.
DNA synthesis
Bio-informatics, space exploration and many more
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 4 / 9
5. Features of computer
⇒ Speed: Computers are able to do things at exponentially faster rate
than ever before.
Data mining was only possible (or rather made economically viable) by
the advent of computer.
⇒ Storage and accessibility of data: Vast amount of data can be
stored and easily accessible for processing.
⇒ Concept of a program: How should one treat a computer program.
Is it property or an idea.
Is it something to be copyrighted or patented. X
⇒ Breadth of Distribution: Information technologies have present
consumers with a new channel of distribution that is faster and as yet
not as regulated internationally as traditional channels.
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 5 / 9
6. Activity 2
⇒ Why IT environment different to a more traditional non-computing
medium?
⇒ As new technologies are introduced new factors are arising every day.
⇒ Think about relatively new technologies such as cellular
communication or satellite tracking devices?
⇒ Have they cause new ethical questions?
⇒ Try to work out what it is about the technology that cause those
ethical questions.
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 6 / 9
7. Computers Used in Social context
⇒ Emerging area of computer usage is in the social context.
⇒ This includes the use of a large database for governmental agency
such as home affairs to keep
Birth
Death
Address
Police
Judiciary for criminal record and fine
⇒ These agencies have always kept records in paper form long before
computers came along.
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 7 / 9
8. Activity-3
1 What is the implication of keeping large databases by government
agencies, ethical or otherwise?
2 Does introduction of these database affect Free Speech? If so how?
3 Each individual has right and duty, which has been given by
constitution.
4 Should they be given rights of access to their own data or the ability
to change incorrect data? Also consider the impact of incorrect data
even if they are changed but not propagated in a timely fashion.
Moral and legal issues:
⇒ Ethics is a very thin line between good and bad.
⇒ Difficult job for policymaker over the time.
⇒ Sometime there arise a policy vacuum, when ethical framework and
law are lagging behind the innovation.
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 8 / 9
9. Continued–
⇒ A policy vacuum is most effectively filled by introduction of
appropriate laws, but this takes time.
⇒ Company, personal or social policies be the betterment of all.
⇒ At the same time provide a starting point to framework creation and
eventually laws.
Dr. Varun Kumar (IIIT Surat) Lecture-4 9 / 9
