Cross-Disciplinary Synthesis Papers
Cross-Disciplinary Synthesis Papers: Integrating Cognitive Science, Design Ethics, and Systems Engineering to Reframe AI Safety and Reliability The rapid integration of AI into socio-technical systems reveals a fundamental truth: traditional safety fr ...
Immersive Ethics by Design for Virtual Environments
As extended reality (XR) technologies - including virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) - become ubiquitous, a new imperative emerges: ethics must no longer be an external afterthought or separate educational module. The fu ...
Energy-Harvesting Ubiquitous Sensors
In a hyper connected future where billions of sensors permeate every environment - from smart cities and agricultural fields to human habitats and industrial complexes - the bottleneck is no longer connectivity or sensing modalities but power. Batteries, ...
Context-Aware Privacy-Preserving Protocols for IoT Ecosystems
The Internet of Things (IoT) is evolving toward omnipresent, autonomous systems embedded in daily environments. However, the pervasive nature of IoT computing raises pressing privacy and security concerns, especially on resource-constrained edge devices. ...
Real-Time In Situ Biomarker Discovery with Microlab-on-a-Chip
In a world increasingly shaped by sudden health crises, climate-induced disease shifts, and highly mobile populations, the traditional model of centralized laboratory diagnostics is approaching obsolescence. What if every front-line medic, field scientis ...
Robotic Telepresence with Tactile Augmentation
In a world where human presence is not always feasible - whether beneath ocean trenches, centuries-old archaeological ruins, or the unstable remains of disaster zones - robotic telepresence has opened new frontiers. Yet current systems are limited: they ...
Responsible Compute Markets
Dynamic Pricing and Policy Mechanisms for Sharing Scarce Compute Resources with Guaranteed Privacy and Safety In an era where advanced AI workloads increasingly strain global compute infrastructure, current allocation strategies - static pricing, prio ...
Circular Economy Platforms Using IoT:
As the world pivots toward a more sustainable future, the concept of the Circular Economy (CE) has emerged as a critical framework to minimize waste, optimize resource use, and ensure that products and materials circulate in the economy for as long as po ...
Additive Manufacturing Meets Time: The Next Frontier of 4D Printing
Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, revolutionized how we build physical objects—layer by layer, on demand, with astonishing design freedom. Yet most of what we print today remains static: once formed, the geometry is fixed (unless mechanically ...
AI-Driven Financial Regulation: How Predictive Analytics and Algorithmic Agents are Redefining Compliance and Fraud Detection
In today’s era of digital transformation, the regulatory landscape for financial services is undergoing one of its most profound shifts in decades. We are entering a phase where compliance is no longer just a back-office checklist; it is becoming a dynam ...
