Generative AI and Algorithmic Art: Disrupting the Framing of Meaning and Rethinking the Subject-Object Dilemma
Full text linkIn the revision of treatments of contemporary art in the 21st century art historians are recognizing 2022 as the dawn of the age of creative artificial intelligence AI The emergence of generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion in late 2022 immediately disrupted the established practices of the art world leading to debates about the validity of AI Art and the emergence of a new market for NFTs However fears regarding the death of the artist are unwarranted when considering the historical adoption of new technologies by artists such as photography The role of the artist will undoubtedly transform and the definition of art will be redefined once again To better understand how AI generative art will impact traditional art- making practices this study will present an AI generative art development pipeline and provide recommendations for future technical and theoretical considerations of the subject-object dilemma in art through a poststructuralist reading of reception theory While the ways in which artists will utilize these new tools are currently uncertain this paper will explore one potential workflow in which content created via text-to-image prompts in Astra ai is exported to Stable Diffusion Through an evaluation of this process and the introduction of new steps for artists using AI generative content recommendations will be provided for both the creation and interpretation of human-AI collaborative and co-creative processes and conten
Use of Design Sprint in PBL Modules– A Longitudinal Case Study Approach
Full text linkProject Based Learning PBL modules have become an inevitable part in SE curriculums Industry relevance of PBL mechanisms have further strengthened this crucial need Design Sprint is well known as a PBL approach which enhances transferable skills in students Design Sprint is also a widely used mechanism in software industry projects Therefore Design Sprint could be used to enhance the outcomes of SE undergraduate PBL projects This study makes use of a longitudinal case study approach to investigate the effectiveness of using Design Sprint approach in a SE undergraduate module which used PBL The study focusses a group of students 111 and academics 12 in SE degree program in a private higher education institute in Sri Lanka Qualitative data gathered from the target audience in two distinctive occasions to investigate the effectiveness of Design Sprint in PBL project
Optimized Round Robin CPU Scheduling for Critical Processes
Full text linkAn operating system serves as a fundamental component of any computer system Scheduling lies at the core of operating system functionality involving the arrangement of processes to execute in a well-defined manner The primary goal of scheduling is to enhance system efficiency and speed Several fundamental scheduling algorithms exist including First Come First Serve FCFS Round Robin Priority-Based Scheduling and Shortest Job First SJF This thesis primarily focuses on the Round Robin Scheduling algorithm and seeks to address certain limitations associated with it One notable drawback of Round Robin Scheduling is the critical choice of the time quantum If the time quantum is excessively large the scheduling behavior closely resembles that of FCFS Conversely a smaller time quantum leads to a higher number of context switches The central objective here is to overcome this limitation inherent to the traditional Round Robin scheduling algorithm thereby maximizing CPU utilization and enhancing system efficiency In this thesis we propose an innovative algorithm that classifies processes into two categories high-priority processes and low-priority processes This novel scheme significantly reduces the average waiting time of high-priority processes regardless of the presence of low-priority processes The overall average waiting time varies based on the specific set of processes under consideration Our analysis demonstrates that the proposed scheme consistently outperforms previously suggested methods resulting in reduced average waiting times for the selected process set
How Trust Influences the Emergence of Collective Intelligence? A Group Dynamic Perspective
Full text linkCollective intelligence CI is critical for groups to solve a variety of problems Such emergent property of the group as a whole is the result of group interaction processes that may inevitably lead to different cognition collaboration and relationship between individuals even conflict within group A key question concerning problem solving is whether and how conflict influences the emergency of collective intelligence Here we used trust and distrust to indicate harmony and conflict state of the group We utilized agent-based modeling to examine the emergent outcomes resulting from trust-based group interaction Our results support the conclusion that CI emerges in moderate task complexity conditions We further showed that the maximum level of CI is predicted by distrust We also found that trust-based positive and negative feedback mechanism worked simultaneously in group problem solving process And these two mechanisms played the role of valve controlling knowledge flow and bridge connecting individuals respectively which can better explain how trust influences the emergence of CI Finally we found that appropriate conflict is beneficial to collective intelligenc
Database Security
Full text linkA database management system is frequently used by users to handle data protection which is at the core of many security systems The security of database management systems is the main topic of this essay which serves as an illustration of how application security may be planned and implemented for certain tasks Due to the fact that databases are more recent than programming languages and operating systems there is currently a lot of interest in DBMS Security Many commercial and governmental organizations depend on databases because they store data in a way that makes retrieving and maintaining it simple and effective Because databases are a favorite target for attackers their structure and contents are regarded as significant company assets that must be carefully protected Similar to other computing systems databases have some fundamental security requirements Access control excluding erroneous data user authentication and reliability are the main issues The problems and dangers to database security are discussed in this pape
A Board Recipe for Minimizing Supply-Chain Cyber Loss
Full text linkAfter attending corporate board meetings for approximately 85 different Fortune 500 organizations and listening to CEOs and CISOs discuss cyber risk in supply chains and after then meeting with many of them personally we came away with three primary takeaways First the main cybersecurity interest of most upper-level managers is primarily in avoiding major negative consequences i e Black Swans to their firms Second over 90 of corporate board members we have met with are either neutral or not confident with their security program s effectiveness But finally and of major concern to us was the observation that CISOs primarily tell their boards anecdotes or stories and they do not present boards with any substantive and specific direction to avoid supply-chain cyber loss We believe this is unfortunate because based on a different set of experiences we have had namely performing several thousand forensic studies including about one thousand for the U S Secret Service-most with about 100 page or more reports we believe corporate boards can take specific reasoned actions and thereby reduce significantly their organization s exposure to and subsequent losses from supply-chain cyber-attack
