Secrecy in Public Relations, Mediation and News Cultures: The Shadow World of the Media Sphere (Routledge Focus on Media and Cultural Studies)
by Anne M. CroninThis book investigates the relationship of secrecy as a social practice to contemporary media, news cultures and public relations. Drawing on Georg Simmel’s theorisation of how secrecy produces a ‘second world’ alongside the ‘obvious world’ and creates and reshapes social relations, Anne Cronin argues for close analysis of the PR industry as a powerful vector of secrecy and an examination of its relationship to news cultures. Using case studies and in-depth interviews, as well as recent research in media and cultural studies, sociology, journalism studies and communication studies, the book analyses how PR practices generate a second, shadow world of the media sphere which has a profound impact on the ‘obvious world’. It interrogates both the PR industry’s and news culture’s role in shaping social relations for a digital media landscape, and those initiatives promoting transparency of data and decision-making processes. An insightful, interdisciplinary approach to debates on media and power, this book will appeal to students of public relations, sociology, media studies, cultural studies and communication studies. It will also be of interest to scholars and practitioners working at the intersections of media, social relations and public trust.
Secrecy, Covertness and Authentication in Wireless Communications: Physical Layer Security Approach (Wireless Networks)
by Xiaohong Jiang Yulong Shen Yuanyu ZhangThis book introduces the fundamentals of physical layer security (PLS) and demonstrates how a variety of PLS techniques can be applied to improve the security of wireless communication systems. In particular, this book covers three security aspects of wireless communications. It includes secrecy, i.e., preventing eavesdroppers from intercepting information from transmitted wireless signals, covertness, i.e., hiding the transmitted signals themselves from malicious wardens and authentication, i.e., authenticating the identities of communicating entities. When discussing the secrecy of wireless communication systems, this book covers physical layer secure communication in multiple-input multiple-out (MIMO) systems based on beamforming and precoding techniques, in relay systems based on link/relay selection and in large-scale random networks based on cooperative jamming. Regarding the covertness of wireless communication systems, this book introduces physical layer covert communication in relaying systems and MIMO systems. Also, when discussing authentication in wireless communication systems, this book introduces the implementation of physical layer authentication in MIMO systems based on channel features and/or radiometric features of transceivers. In addition, this book presents security-aware routing in wireless networks based on physical layer secure communication techniques.This book targets researchers in the fields of physical layer security and wireless communications security. Advanced-level students in electronic engineering or computer science studying these security topics will also want to purchase this book as a secondary textbook.

Secrets of Economics Editors
by Michael Szenberg Lall Ramrattan Robert M. SolowEditors of academic journals are often the top scholars in their fields. They are charged with managing the flow of hundreds of manuscripts each year -- from submission to review to rejection or acceptance -- all while continuing their own scholarly pursuits. Tenure decisions often turn on who has published what in which journals, but editors can accept only a fraction of the papers submitted. In this book, past and present editors of economics journals discuss navigating the world of academic journals. Their contributions offer essential reading for anyone who has ever submitted a paper, served as a referee or associate editor, edited a journal -- or read an article and wondered why it was published. The editors describe their experiences at journals that range from the American Economic Review to the Journal of Sports Economics. The issues they examine include late referee reports, slow resubmission of manuscripts, and plagiarism -- as well as the difficulties of "herding cats" and the benefits of husband-wife editorial partnerships. They consider the role of the editor, as gatekeeper or developer of content; and they advise authors to write more carefully and clearly, to include citations that locate their articles in the context of the existing literature, and to update their work after it has been submitted and rejected elsewhere. The chapters also offer a timely, insider's perspective on the general effectiveness of the system of academic journals in economics. ContributorsRichard V. Adkisson, Richard G. Anderson, William A.

Secrets of Victory
by Michael S. SweeneyDuring World War II, the civilian Office of Censorship supervised a huge and surprisingly successful program of news management: the voluntary self-censorship of the American press. In January 1942, censorship codebooks were distributed to all American newspapers, magazines, and radio stations with the request that journalists adhere to the guidelines within. Remarkably, over the course of the war no print journalist, and only one radio journalist, ever deliberately violated the censorship code after having been made aware of it and understanding its intent.Secrets of Victory examines the World War II censorship program and analyzes the reasons for its success. Using archival sources, including the Office of Censorship's own records, Michael Sweeney traces the development of news media censorship from a pressing necessity after the attack on Pearl Harbor to the centralized yet efficient bureaucracy that persuaded thousands of journalists to censor themselves for the sake of national security. At the heart of this often dramatic story is the Office of Censorship's director Byron Price. A former reporter himself, Price relied on cooperation with--rather than coercion of--American journalists in his fight to safeguard the nation's secrets.

Secure, Low-Power IoT Communication Using Edge-Coded Signaling
by Ibrahim (Abe) Elfadel Shahzad MuzaffarThis book discusses single-channel, device-to-device communication in the Internet of Things (IoT) at the signal encoding level and introduces a new family of encoding techniques that result in significant simplifications of the communication circuitry. These simplifications translate into lower power consumption, smaller form factors, and dynamic data rates that are tolerant to clock discrepancies between transmitter and receiver. Readers will be introduced to signal encoding that uses edge-coded signaling, based on the coding of binary data as counts of transmitted pulses. The authors fully explore the far-reaching implications of these novel signal-encoding techniques and illustrate how their usage can help minimize the need for complex circuitries for either clock and data recovery or duty-cycle correction. They also provide a detailed description of a complete ecosystem of hardware and firmware built around edge-code signaling. The ecosystem comprises an application-specific processor, automatic protocol configuration, power and data rate management, cryptographic primitives, and automatic failure recovery modes. The innovative IoT communication link and its associated ecosystem are fully in line with the standard IoT requirements on power, footprint, security, robustness, and reliability.
