Visible yet unseen: unpacking the (in)visibilities of food-delivery riders in public space

Food-delivery riders embody a constitutive paradox of platform-mediated labour. Although visible and physically exposed in public space, their labour is obscured, their subjectivities unacknowledged, and their presence marginalised. This ar...

Cyberattacks on Miniature Brain Implants to Disrupt Spontaneous Neural Signaling

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) arose as systems that merge computing systems with the human brain to facilitate recording, stimulation, and inhibition of neural activity. Over the years, the development of BCI technologies has shifted towa...

Remodeling of Metabolic and Secretory Organelles During Oncogenic and Oncomodulatory Viral Infections

Persistent oncovirus infections account for 15–20% of the global cancer burden, driving multiple forms of human cancer. To maintain persistent infection and spread, oncoviruses drive alterations in host cell metabolism, immune signaling, an...

Total factor productivity growth and spatial–temporal evolution of China’s health system: a three-stage DEA-Malmquist approach

In recent years, the deepening of healthcare reform in China has raised high demands for the accurate measurement of hospital total factor productivity (TFP), where existing systems often overstate performance by neglecting social welfare. ...

Audience and Algorithm: A Causal Layered Analysis of the Future of “Autonomy”

Extended AbstractPurpose and Research ProblemIn the digital age, the relationship between audiences and algorithms has become a defining arena of cultural negotiation and epistemic transformation. This study explores the futures of autonomy...

The Integrity and Tightness of Underground Hydrogen Storage Systems: A Critical Review of Geological Barriers, Well Sealing, Leakage Risks and Future Perspectives

Underground storage of green hydrogen is a strategic enabler of large-scale renewable deployment, but its feasibility rests on a hard problem: keeping a small, highly mobile molecule confined underground for decades without safety or enviro...

A cautionary tale: children, dark patterns and normative perspectives

This article explores the intersection of dark patterns — deceptive design practices that manipulate user behavior—with children’s digital experiences, examining how universal cognitive vulnerabilities intersect with context-specific suscep...

Research on Network Risk Evaluation Method Based on a Differential Manifold

With the rapid development of networks, network security is a serious problem. To evaluate a network accurately, this paper proposes a network risk evaluation method based on a differential manifold (DM) and research on traditional methods....

Managing Food Quality Risk in Global Supply Chain: A Risk Management Framework

Today, the food sector is one of the sectors most vulnerable to intentional contamination by debilitating agents [ 1 ]. Some cases of contaminated food have indicated that product quality risk is one of the vulnerabilities in the global sup...

In this era of globalization and technological advancements, Malaysia stands out as a vibrant hub for innovations and technology, along with an entrepreneurial spirit. However, it appears that there will be occasions when the creation of ...

An Integral Model to Provide Reactive and Proactive Services in an Academic CSIRT Based on Business Intelligence

Cyber-attacks have increased in severity and complexity. That requires, that the CERT/CSIRT research and develops new security tools. Therefore, our study focuses on the design of an integral model based on Business Intelligence (BI), which...

Data recommendation algorithm of network security event based on knowledge graph

To address the difficulty faced by network security operation and maintenance personnel in timely and accurate identification of required data during network security event analysis, a recommendation algorithm based on a knowledge graph for...

An Improved Blockchain-Based Lightweight Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Handover Authentication Protocol for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks

We conduct a cryptanalysis of the Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) handover authentication protocol newly developed by Son et al., which incorporates blockchain technology for authentication purposes. Although this approach is notably effici...
