Early Findings of Research on Apple and ConnectED Initiative to Improve Learning Through Technology in Low-Income Schools
Many in the education community celebrate the potential of technology to help prepare students for the future. But realizing that potential depends on how educational technology tools are used, an area in which gaps persist on average between high-poverty schools and their better-resourced peers. An important goal is to introduce new technologies in ways that…

Power-grid controller anomaly detection with enhanced temporal deep learning
Controllers of security-critical cyber-physical systems, like the power grid, are a very important class of computer systems. Attacks against the control code of a power-grid system, especially zero-day attacks, can be catastrophic.
