The U.S. and Iran have been locked in a decades-long standoff, driven by missteps, misunderstandings, and conflicting ambitions. This collection of essays delves into the complex dynamics behind this ongoing conflict, shedding light on why American policies have repeatedly failed to understand the true nature of Iran’s transformations and its role in the Middle East. Drawing on two decades of political analysis, the essays explore the history of U.S. intervention in the region, focusing on the enduring sanctions imposed on Iran and the persistent perception of the Islamic Republic as a major obstacle to American power. Despite the repressive policies of the state, Iran has remained a vibrant society with active intellectual, cultural, and social justice movements. The book examines these internal changes and shifts in Iranian politics, offering crucial insights into why American policies have often been blind to these developments. By challenging the conventional image of Iran as a totalitarian regime, this collection urges readers to appreciate the country’s diverse society and complex political landscape. It calls for a re-evaluation of how the U.S. engages with Iran, advocating for a more informed, nuanced approach to Middle East diplomacy. At a critical moment when U.S. policy is being reshaped, these essays serve as a timely reminder: without acknowledging Iran’s transformations, both nations will continue to face new events—and the same old questions.

Motadan Omid: Addicts of Hope
Behrooz Ghorbanian
Createspace Independent Publishing Platform

This poetical work in Persian language by Behrooz Ghorbanian, is a critical dialogue with the Iranian culture caught on the cross roads of modernity and tradition. A culture that is nostalgically romanticizing its past glories in literature, politics, and religion. All the while, technologically advancing to challenge the West's centuries old domination of the Middle East. The poems dwell and find their content in the pathological space of the resulting schizophrenia thus imposed both from within and from without. Aware of its own problematic immigrant status, the work is highly critical of romantic escapism of the culture to the traditional forms of representations, and its lazy slumber in a deadly nostalgia. The poems are equally suspicious of the Iranian communities outside of Iran, as they exhibit the same dispositions. The work is also derisive of the West's interventions that have been undermining the economic and political developments of the nation for decades.

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
Quality Confirmation Tests for Power Transformer Insulation Systems
Behrooz Vahidi; Ashkan Teymouri
Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2019
sidottu
This book focuses on oil-paper insulation included in power transformers, especially for EHV and UHV transformers. The importance on insulation ever increased due to a growing voltage rating of transformers. Within the last decades, although research on the transformer insulation and diagnosis methods has advanced a lot, the insulation of HV transformers remained more or less unchanged. The book is divided into five chapters; the first and second chapters explain the basics of oil insulation, while the third chapter focuses on paper insulation. The final two chapters deal with the methods and outcome of testing both techniques. The primary target audience for this book is graduate students and power system engineers.

Perfect Secrecy in IoT

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.

Crypto and AI

Springer International Publishing AG
2023
sidottu
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.

Demokratieforschung beschäftigt sich zwar mit den institutionellen Aspekten von „Demokratien“, nicht jedoch mit den sozialpsychologischen Zusammenhängen, aufgrund derer sie gebildet werden oder scheitern können. Behrouz Alikhani zeigt aus einer sozialpsychologischen Perspektive, welche Gesellschafts- und Persönlichkeitsstrukturen zur Aufrechterhaltung einer Demokratie auf institutioneller Ebene erforderlich sind und was geschieht, wenn diese Strukturen keine hinreichende Grundlage bilden.
Product of Random Stochastic Matrices and Distributed Averaging
Behrouz Touri
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH Co. K

sidottu
The thesis deals with averaging dynamics in a multiagent networked system, which is a main mechanism for diffusing the information over such networks. It arises in a wide range of applications in engineered physical networks (such as mobile communication and sensor networks), as well as social and economic networks. The thesis provides in depth study of stability and other phenomena characterizing the limiting behavior of both deterministic and random averaging dynamics. By developing new concepts, and using the tools from dynamic system theory and non-negative matrix theory, several novel fundamental results are rigorously developed. These contribute significantly to our understanding of averaging dynamics as well as to non-negative random matrix theory. The exposition, although highly rigorous and technical, is elegant and insightful, and accompanied with numerous illustrative examples, which makes this thesis work easily accessible to those just entering this field and will also be much appreciated by experts in the field.
