Computer networks have evolved into an essential component of modern society, facilitating the seamless sharing and dissemination of digital information. This paper explores the fundamental concepts of networking, focusing on the…
This paper summarizes current notes about a new mixed-reality paradigm that we named as "pervasive virtuality". This paradigm has emerged recently in industry and academia through different initiatives. In this paper we intend to explore…
For a century, quantum theorists have been reading the mathematical entrails of quantum mechanics (QM) to divine the nature of quantum reality. But to little avail. In this paper a different approach is taken, namely to identify and explain…
The mathematisation of the socio-economic sphere, where mathematics actively constructs social reality, presents a challenge for studies on ethics in mathematics and its education. While existing scholarship on ethics in mathematics offers…
A short critical review of the concept of decoherence, its consequences, and its possible implications for the interpretation of quantum theory is given.
Data protection regulations give individuals rights to obtain the information that entities have on them. However, providing such information can also reveal aspects of the underlying technical infrastructure and organisational processes.…
The rapid growth of the digital platform economy is transforming labor markets, offering new employment opportunities with promises of flexibility and accessibility. However, these benefits often come at the expense of increased economic…
Speculative thinking about the capabilities and implications of artificial intelligence (AI) influences computer science research, drives AI industry practices, feeds academic studies of existential hazards, and stirs a global political…
As digital technology becomes increasingly embedded in daily life, its impact on social interactions has become a critical area of study, particularly concerning cyberbullying. This meta-analysis investigates the dual role of technology in…
The societal issue of digital hostility has previously attracted a lot of attention. The topic counts an ample body of literature, yet remains prominent and challenging as ever due to its subjective nature. We posit that a better…
The advent of personalized reality has arrived. Rapid development in AR/MR/VR enables users to augment or diminish their perception of the physical world. Robust tooling for digital interface modification enables users to change how their…
We search for a possible mathematical formulation of some of the key ideas of the relational interpretation of quantum mechanics and study their consequences. We also briefly overview some proposals of relational quantum mechanics for an…
The question of what is real is familiar in physics. This paper addresses this question through the notions of reality in the models of of the world (schemata) that are created by the information gathering and utilizing systems (IGUSes) in…
The concept of truth, as a public good is the production of a collective understanding, which emerges from a complex network of social interactions. The recent impact of social networks on shaping the perception of truth in political arena…
Malicious cyber activity is ubiquitous and its harmful effects have dramatic and often irreversible impacts on society. Given the shortage of cybersecurity professionals, the ever-evolving adversary, the massive amounts of data which could…
A growing number of oversight boards and regulatory bodies seek to monitor and govern algorithms that make decisions about people's lives. Prior work has explored how people believe algorithmic decisions should be made, but there is little…
