14 Rules for Admissions Screening in Higher Ed: An Antidote to Bias

14 Rules for Admissions Screening in Higher Ed: An Antidote to Bias

Behrouz Moemeni

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
Is it possible to create an admissions screening process that allows any educational institution to select top-performing applicants and simultaneously promote diversity? Is it possible to choose applicants genuinely motivated in the pursuit of a profession rather than those primarily focused on acquiring wealth or status? Is it possible to achieve all of the above, being fair to all applicants and reducing the time and cost of the admissions screening process? Dr. Behrouz Moemeni, one of the most sought-after admissions expert and an outspoken advocate for fair and scientific admissions screening, believes the answer to all of the above questions is a resounding "YES". In this thought-provoking book, he explains how using first principles in psychology, immunology, sociology, evolutionary biology, statistics, physics, and chemistry can help universities select applicants passionate about their future professions. After convincing the readers about the flaws of current admissions screening practices - such as the use of situational judgment tests, standardized tests, and traditional interviews - he explains a step-by-step action plan described in 14 "rules" designed for any educational institution seeking to construct a fair and scientific admissions screening process. The book is filled with blunt reasoning debunking common myths and lighthearted humor about what to do instead suitable for admissions professionals, researchers and anyone interested in applicant screening in higher education. Here's what you are going to learn in this book: The fundamental problems with current admissions screening practices that lead to profound bias against minority groups and lower income applicantsHow to streamline the entire admissions process into one single step The Big Three(TM) The only 3 qualities that matter in admissions screeningHow to select applicants based on The Big Three characteristicsHow to design questions that seek the truth from each applicantHow to separate highly suitable applicants from the rest without any guess work or "gut feeling"How to design questions that promote diversity while being fair to applicantsHow to increase the reliability and validity of any admissions screening practice or toolHow to democratize the admissions process and educational institutions Sample questions and answers for admissions teamsAnd much more

ISE C++ Programming: An Object-Oriented Approach

ISE C++ Programming: An Object-Oriented Approach

Behrouz A. Forouzan; Richard Gilberg

McGraw-Hill Education
2019
nidottu
C++ Programming: An Object-Oriented Approach has two primary objectives: Teach the basic principles of programming as outlined in the ACM curriculum for a CS1 class and teach the basic constructs of the C++ language. While C++ is a complex and professional language, experience shows that beginning students can easily understand and use C++.C++ Programming: An Object-Oriented Approach uses a combination of thorough, well-ordered explanations and a strong visual framework to make programming concepts accessible to students. The authors stress incremental program development, wherein program analysis is followed by building a structure chart, constructing UML flow diagrams, writing algorithms, undertaking program design, and finally testing. This foundation, combined with a focus on the benefits of a consistent and well-documented programming style, prepares students to tackle the academic and professional programming challenges they will encounter down the road with confidence.

"Our government jailed his body, but his soul remained that of a free man." -- From the Foreword by Man Booker Prize-winning author Richard FlanaganIn 2013, Kurdish-Iranian journalist Behrouz Boochani was illegally detained on Manus Island, a refugee detention centre off the coast of Australia.He has been there ever since.This book is the result. Laboriously tapped out on a mobile phone and translated from the Farsi.It is a voice of witness, an act of survival. A lyric first-hand account. A cry of resistance. A vivid portrait of five years of incarceration and exile. Winner of the Victorian Premier's Prize for Literature, Australia's richest literary prize, No Friend But the Mountains is an extraordinary account -- one that is disturbingly representative of the experience of the many stateless and imprisoned refugees and migrants around the world.

Post-Earthquake Fire Analysis in Urban Structures

Post-Earthquake Fire Analysis in Urban Structures

Behrouz Behnam

Productivity Press
2016
sidottu
Post-earthquake fire is one of the most complicated problems resulting from earthquakes and presents a serious risk to urban structures. Most standards and codes ignore the possibility of post-earthquake fire; thus it is not factored in when determining the ability of buildings to withstand load. This book describes the effects of post-earthquake fire on partially damaged buildings located in seismic urban regions. The book quantifies the level of associated post-earthquake fire effects, and discusses methods for mitigating the risk at both the macro scale and micro scale. The macro scale strategies address urban regions while the micro scale strategies address building structures, covering both existing buildings and those that are yet to be designed.

The Award-winning International Bestselling Story of One Man's Six Year Detention in Australia ‘A powerfully vivid account of the experiences of a refugee: desperation, brutality, suffering, and all observed with an eye that seems to see everything and told in a voice that’s equal to the task.' - Phillip PullmanIn 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani sought asylum in Australia but was instead illegally imprisoned in the country’s most notorious detention centre on Manus Island. This book is the result.Boochani spent nearly five years typing passages of this book one text at a time from a secret mobile phone in prison. Compiled and translated from Farsi, they form an incredible story of how escaping political persecution in Iran, he ended up trapped as a stateless person. This vivid, gripping portrait of his years of incarceration and exile shines devastating light on the fates of so many people, as borders close around the world.No Friend but the Mountains is both a brave act of witness and a moving testament to the humanity of all people, in the most extreme of circumstances.'A brilliant book. No Friend but the Mountains can rightly take its place on the shelf of world prison literature . . . It is a profound victory for a young poet who showed us all how much words can still matter.' - Richard Flanagan, Booker Prize winning author of The Narrow Road to the Deep North

Once upon a time under the blue dome, there was no one but you And then, Fall is coming With a chariot of gloomy men and women crawling up to the waist in fur. There is no trace of those playful devil girls with their hair blown away, nor of women who intentionally showing their stimulating curves in front of pedestrians' eyes. Even the centre of gravity of our attention turned from the delicate point of the navel on the abdomen and fell on the radiance of the eyes, which sometimes take meaninglessly a trace of a leaf, from a branch to fall on the rainy cold ground Just like the rotation of the gravity centre of the globe under our feet, as you call it the autumnal equinox There is no moderation in Fall Whatever it is, it's unbalanced From the fall of a yellow leaf to the glare of an anxious look. A look that turns and does not find There is no moderation nor balance. In the Fall, there is an imaginary anxiety which must be related to the important point of the umbilicus on the abdomen of women, even with the disconnection between the eager eyes and the naked umbilicus Fall is coming And this is just a prelude Behrooz Mayelzadeh

Perfect Secrecy in IoT

Perfect Secrecy in IoT

Behrouz Zolfaghari; Khodakhast Bibak

Springer International Publishing AG

sidottu
Perfectly-secure cryptography is a branch of information-theoretic cryptography. A perfectly-secure cryptosystem guarantees that the malicious third party cannot guess anything regarding the plain text or the key, even in the case of full access to the cipher text. Despite this advantage, there are only a few real-world implementations of perfect secrecy due to some well-known limitations. Any simple, straightforward modeling can pave the way for further advancements in the implementation, especially in environments with time and resource constraints such as IoT. This book takes one step towards this goal via presenting a hybrid combinatorial-Boolean model for perfectly-secure cryptography in IoT. In this book, we first present an introduction to information-theoretic cryptography as well as perfect secrecy and its real-world implementations. Then we take a systematic approach to highlight information-theoretic cryptography as a convergence point for existing trends in research on cryptography in IoT. Then we investigate combinatorial and Boolean cryptography and show how they are seen almost everywhere in the ecosystem and the life cycle of information-theoretic IoT cryptography. We finally model perfect secrecy in IoT using Boolean functions, and map the Boolean functions to simple, well-studied combinatorial designs like Latin squares. This book is organized in two parts. The first part studie s information-theoretic cryptography and the promise it holds for cryptography in IoT. The second part separately discusses combinatorial and Boolean cryptography, and then presents the hybrid combinatorial-Boolean model for perfect secrecy in IoT.

This book studies the intersection between cryptography and AI, highlighting the significant cross-impact and potential between the two technologies. The authors first study the individual ecosystems of cryptography and AI to show the omnipresence of each technology in the ecosystem of the other one. Next, they show how these technologies have come together in collaborative or adversarial ways. In the next section, the authors highlight the coevolution being formed between cryptography and AI. Throughout the book, the authors use evidence from state-of-the-art research to look ahead at the future of the crypto-AI dichotomy. The authors explain how they anticipate that quantum computing will join the dichotomy in near future, augmenting it to a trichotomy. They verify this through two case studies highlighting another scenario wherein crypto, AI and quantum converge. The authors study current trends in chaotic image encryption as well as information-theoretic cryptography and show how these trends lean towards quantum-inspired artificial intelligence (QiAI). After concluding the discussions, the authors suggest future research for interested researchers.
