    Here is a link to a recent CSU source publication on our exploits at the 1st Cyber Truck Challenge, Warren, Michigan: https://source.colostate.edu/cybertruck-challenge-students-hack-truck-steal-show/.Here is a link to our project website: http://www.cs.colostate.edu/dbsec/HeavyVehicle/.Here is a link to my personal website which lists some of my works in detail: http://www.cs.colostate.edu/~subhomuk/.Inside today's vehicles, embedded electronic control units (ECUs) manage different operations by communicating via the serial CAN bus. It has been shown that the CAN bus can be accessed by remote attackers to disrupt/manipulate normal vehicular operations. Heavy-duty vehicles, unlike their lighter counterparts, follow a common set of communication standards (SAE J1939) and are often used for transporting critical goods, thereby increasing their asset value. This work deals with the internal communication security of heavy-duty vehicles and is aimed at detecting /preventing malicious activities that can adversely affect human lives and company fortunes reliant on such modes of transportation.CSU Ventures Drivers of Innovation - Platinum award

    Review: The Gene: An Intimate History. By Siddartha Mukherjee

    No full text
    Dr. Siddhartha Mukherjee, author of the highly regarded and Pulitzer Prize winning The Emperor of All Maladies, has undertaken what he terms as an “intimate history” of the gene. Mukherjee’s medical credentials are impressive, yet they are also atypical for research and writing on the history of science. The Gene is impeccably written and expands our understanding of a well-known history through his unique viewpoint. In fact, Mukherjee’s work is reminiscent of another Pulitzer Prize winner, Jared Diamond. Originally a physiologist, Diamond, is best known for applying his scientific viewpoint to the Spanish Conquest in his 1997 Pulitzer Prize winning Gun’s Germs, and Steel. ~article excerpt

    Colonial Institutions and Civil War Indirect Rule and Maoist Insurgency in India

    No full text
    What explains the peculiar spatial variation of Maoist insurgency in India? Mukherjee develops a novel typology of colonial indirect rule and land tenure in India, showing how they can lead to land inequality, weak state and Maoist insurgency. Using a multi-method research design that combines qualitative analysis of archival data on Chhattisgarh and Andhra Pradesh states, Mukherjee demonstrates path dependence of land/ethnic inequality leading to Maoist insurgency. This is nested within a quantitative analysis of a district level dataset which uses an instrumental variable analysis to address potential selection bias in colonial choice of princely states. The author also analyses various Maoist documents, and interviews with key human rights activists, police officers, and bureaucrats, providing rich contextual understanding of the motivations of agents. Furthermore, he demonstrates the generalizability of his theory to cases of colonial frontier indirect rule causing ethnic secessionist insurgency in Burma, and the Taliban insurgency in Pakistan

    A universal explicit electron correlation correction applied to Mukherjee's multi-reference perturbation theory

    No full text
    We present a universally applicable explicit electron correlation (F12) correction and apply it to Mukherjee's multi-reference perturbation theory (Mk-MRPT2). Two different F12 corrections are proposed: one is a universal F12 correction which is added to the conventional orbital correction, which is referred to as Mk-MRPT2+F12. In the second type of F12 correction the individual F12 contributions are added to each matrix element of the effective Hamiltonian. Subsequent diagonalization yields the Mk-MRPT2-F12 correction. Thereby, we achieve for both F12 corrections the accuracy of a quadruple-zeta basis set calculation when a triple-zeta basis set is employed and the F12 correction is added. Both F12 corrections reduce to MP2-F12/1A (fixed) in the single-reference limit. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

    FEMALE EXPERIENCES AS INDIANWIVES IN THE NOVELWIFE BY BHARATI MUKHERJEE

    No full text
    According to Shilpi Pradhan, Mukherjee is included as one of American India woman author with literary career that was acclaimed started from 1971. Mukherjee's works focus on the phenomenon of migration, the status of new immigrants, and the feeling of alienation that often experienced by expatriates as well as on Indian women and their struggle. Actually Mukherjee as an immigrant makes her own struggle with identity first as an exile from India, then as an Indian expatriate in Canada, and finally as an immigrant in the United States has led to her current contentment of being an immigrant in a country of immigrant. (1998) From that viewpoint, the writer concludes that Bharati’s works might provide several evidences through her personal issues. Her novel Wife is actually the shape of women experience. The story of Wife tells about two women named Dimple Dasgupta and Ina Mullick. Dimple who have been suppressed by such men and attempts to be the ideal Indian wives, but out of fear and personal instability, Dimple kills her husband and eventually commits suicide. On the other hand, Ina Mullick tries harder to reach her dream; she wants to be different from traditional Indian wives. This novel indicates the dilemma of the Indian women whose social role arranged by tradition. From those theoretical and historical reasons, the writer is interested to propose the study about feminist view of Dimple Dasgupta and Ina Mullick as the main character in Wife novel by Bharati Mukherjee in a research entitled “Female Experiences as Indian wives in the novelWIFE by BharatiMukherjee
