Post-Quantum Cryptography, and the Quantum Future of Cybersecurity

April 9, 2024
Author(s)
Yi-Kai Liu, Dustin Moody
We review the current status of efforts to develop and deploy post-quantum cryptography on the Internet. Then we suggest specific ways in which quantum technologies might be used to enhance cybersecurity in the near future and beyond. We focus on two goals

Precision Calcination Mechanism of CaCO 3 to High-Porosity Nanoscale CaO CO 2 Sorbent Revealed by Direct In Situ Observations

April 5, 2024
Author(s)
Jenny Martinez, Jenna Wardini, Xueli Zheng, Lauren Moghimi, Jason Rakowsky, Jonathan Means, Huiming Guo, Ivan Kuzmenko, Jan Ilavsky, Fan Zhang, Pratik Dholabhai, Leora Dresselhaus-Marais, William Bowman
Deploying energy storage and carbon capture at scale is hindered by the substantial endothermic penalty of decomposing CaCO3 to CaO and CO2, and the rapid loss of CO2 absorption capacity by CaO sorbent particles due to sintering at the high requisite

Online Measurement for Parameter Discovery in Fused Filament Fabrication

April 3, 2024
Author(s)
Jake Read, Jonathan Seppala, Filippos Tourlomousis, James Warren, Nicole Bakker, Neil Gershenfeld
Abstract To describe a new method for the automatic generation of process parameters for fused filament fabrication (FFF) across varying machines and materials. We use an instrumented extruder to fit a function that maps nozzle pressures across varying

Ultrasensitive sequencing of STR markers utilizing unique molecular identifiers and the SiMSen-Seq method

April 3, 2024
Author(s)
Maja Sidstedt, Arvid Gynna, Kevin Kiesler, Linda Jansson, Becky Steffen, Joakim Hakansson, Gustav Johansson, Yalda Bogestal, Andreas Tillmar, Peter Radstrom, Anders Stahlberg, Peter Vallone, Johannes Hedman
Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) is increasingly applied in forensic short tandem repeat (STR) analysis. The presence of stutter artefacts and other PCR or sequencing errors in the MPS-STR data partly limits the detection of low DNA amounts, e.g., in

A Data Collection Platform for Network Management

April 2, 2024
Author(s)
Amar Abane, Abdella Battou, Abderrahim Amlou, Tao Zhang
Network management relies on extensive monitoring of network state to analyze network behavior, design optimizations, plan upgrades, and conduct troubleshooting. Network monitoring collects various data from network devices through different protocols and

Automated Network Programmability Using OpenConfig YANG Models and NETCONF Protocol

April 2, 2024
Author(s)
Abderrahim Amlou, Amar Abane, Mheni Merzouki, Lydia Ait Oucheggou, Zineb Maasaoui, Abdella Battou
This paper introduces a microservice-based architecture designed to enable automation of network programmability and management. Amid the complexity of today's networks and the diversity of equipment, achieving efficient and reliable network

Indirect Cooling of Weakly Coupled Trapped-Ion Mechanical Oscillators

April 2, 2024
Author(s)
Panyu Hou, Jenny Wu, Stephen Erickson, Giorgio Zarantonello, Adam Brandt, Daniel Cole, Andrew C. Wilson, Daniel Slichter, Dietrich Leibfried
Cooling the motion of trapped ions to near the quantum ground state is crucial for many ap- plications in quantum information processing and quantum metrology. However, some motional modes of trapped ions are difficult to cool because they only interact

2024 NIST Generative AI (GenAI): Data Creation Specification for Text-to-Text (T2T) Generators

April 1, 2024
Author(s)
Yooyoung Lee, George Awad, Asad Butt, Lukas Diduch, Kay Peterson, Seungmin Seo, Ian Soboroff, Hariharan Iyer
Generator (G) teams will be tested on their system ability to generate content that is indistinguishable from human-generated content. For the pilot study, the evaluation will help determine strengths and weaknesses in their approaches including insights

Exploiting the Digital Economy for Product Realization in Manufacturing

April 1, 2024
Author(s)
Paul Witherell, Soundar Kumara
In this paper we briefly discuss the evolving concepts of digital economy, digital threads, and product realization (manufacturing) in the digital economy enabled futuristic world. We posit that if we need to become self-sufficient, it is imperative that

Mechanism of Action, Potency and Efficacy: Considerations for Cell and Gene Therapies

April 1, 2024
Author(s)
Carl Simon Jr., Anne L. Plant, Catherine Zander, Erich Bozenhardt, Christina Celluzzi, David Dobnik, Melanie Grant, John Hughes, Uma Lakshmipathy, Kok-Seong Lim, Laura Montgomery, Hesham Nawar, Thiana Nebel, Linda Peltier, James Sherley, Rouzbeh Taghizadeh, Eddie Tan, Sandrine Vessillier
One of the most challenging aspects of cell and gene therapy products (CGTPs) is defining mechanism of action (MOA), potency and efficacy of the product. This perspective examines these concepts and presents helpful ways to think about them through the

Quantitative and Standardized Pseudovirus Neutralization Assay for COVID-19

April 1, 2024
