Are you interested in having a learning experience guided by a Smithsonian mentor with specific expertise? Are you interested in maintaining a scholarly affiliation with the Smithsonian on a subject that is a particular area of your expertise? If so, this could be the book for you. For over fifty years, in various iterations, the Smithsonian Opportunities for Study and Research (SORS) guide has been a resource for connecting prospective fellows, interns, and research associates with the Smithsonian. If you are applying to an existing Smithsonian program (fellowship, internship, etc), you can use this book to identify a potential advisor/mentor and reach out to them to discuss whether they might be in a position to host you. Alternatively, if there isn’t an existing program in the area of your interest, but you would like to explore the possibility of doing an internship or fellowship with a particular SI expert on your own – this book can be used for that too. If you approach a would-be Smithsonian advisor or mentor with a question or proposal, be specific as possible, and do some research ahead of time to verify that the person you are approaching is doing work in a field that matches your idea or question. Smithsonian research and program staff often have many competing commitments. If you reach out and don’t hear back, it may that the person you reach out to just isn’t in a position to host you. On the other hand, broadening access is a priority for the Smithsonian; if the person you contact can offer a response, they will. SMITHSONIAN OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESEARCH AND STUDY 2017 | 1 I honor you for your commitment to increasing your knowledge and diffusing it to others. Thank you for your interest in the Smithsonian! Eric Woodard Director of Fellowships and Internships Smithsonian Institution August 2016 SMITHSONIAN OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESEARCH AND STUDY 2017 | 2 Anacostia Community Museum (ACM) Lori Yarrish, Acting Director The mission of the Anacostia Community Museum is focused on the examination of contemporary urban issues and community life, and on community-focused approaches to research, documentation, and educational and cultural programming. The geographic scope of museum work incorporates the Washington, D.C. Metro area as well as urban communities in other parts of the United States. Core to the work of the museum is the belief that active citizen participation in the recovery and preservation of community historical assets, in cultural and arts activities, and in community advocacy are important and powerful instruments in creating and maintaining a sense of community and civic ownership. The permanent collection supports the museum’s investigation of contemporary community life, and of issues and themes that shape and resonate within urban communities. An important goal of museum collections is the development of strategies to engage public audiences with the artifacts and other materials in the museum’s collections. Smithsonian interns and fellows assist the museum in bringing scholarship and formal research-to- research programs. In addition to the range of scholarship within the humanities and social sciences, the museum is also interested in students and researchers in the fields of social and human geography, community studies, cultural studies, and urban ecology. The museum has a strong focus on community- based documentation and research efforts—including oral history interviewing, community survey and mapping projects, and community-based collecting. Museum research centers on four main areas of inquiry: URBAN ARTS: the wide range of creative activities that take

    Art Institute of Chicago

    Art Institute of Chicago The Art Institute Of Chicago has over 300,000 works of art An internationally renowned institution, the Art Institute of Chicago is a museum that houses art collections from around the world. Its origins can be traced to the Chicago Academy of Design, which was established by local artists in 1866 and was restored as the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts in 1879 . The Art Institute took its present name in 1882 and was moved to its current building in 1893, covering an entire city block between Jackson and Monroe streets. The museum contains over 300,000 works of art and is noted for its collections of 19th century French paintings and 20th century paintings and sculpture. The extensive collection keeps visitors occupied for many hours. Children too can learn and have an enjoyable time at the Kraft Education Center. A new large wing had been added to the museum in 2009 and the works of famous artists such as Kandinsky began to be seen in the modern extension designed by renowned architect Renzo Piano. Edward Kemeys’ lions at the entrance of the institute are one of the most beloved and recognizable sculptures in the city. New amenities as well as an interior garden have also been added during the expansion. Art Institute Of Chicago Map Art Institute Of Chicago Facts A particularly well-known painting in the museum is La Grande Jatte by Seurat. Increased commitment to exhibit challenging contemporary work was first indicated by the innovative gallery owner Katherine Kuh. Chicago Tribune once reported that Kemeys said the lions at the entrance of the building are meant to guard it.

    Practical Homomorphic Encryption and Cryptanalysis Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Naturwissenschaften (Dr. rer. nat.) an der Fakult¨atf¨urMathematik der Ruhr-Universit¨atBochum vorgelegt von Dipl. Ing. Matthias Minihold unter der Betreuung von Prof. Dr. Alexander May Bochum April 2019 First reviewer: Prof. Dr. Alexander May Second reviewer: Prof. Dr. Gregor Leander Date of oral examination (Defense): 3rd May 2019 Author's declaration The work presented in this thesis is the result of original research carried out by the candidate, partly in collaboration with others, whilst enrolled in and carried out in accordance with the requirements of the Department of Mathematics at Ruhr-University Bochum as a candidate for the degree of doctor rerum naturalium (Dr. rer. nat.). Except where indicated by reference in the text, the work is the candidates own work and has not been submitted for any other degree or award in any other university or educational establishment. Views expressed in this dissertation are those of the author. Place, Date Signature Chapter 1 Abstract My thesis on Practical Homomorphic Encryption and Cryptanalysis, is dedicated to efficient homomor- phic constructions, underlying primitives, and their practical security vetted by cryptanalytic methods. The wide-spread RSA cryptosystem serves as an early (partially) homomorphic example of a public- key encryption scheme, whose security reduction leads to problems believed to be have lower solution- complexity on average than nowadays fully homomorphic encryption schemes are based on. The reader goes on a journey towards designing a practical fully homomorphic encryption scheme, and one exemplary application of growing importance: privacy-preserving use of machine learning.

Geographically, the essays collected here index the The Archaeology of different aspects of animal use by the indigenous populations of the entire area between the northern borders of Mexico and the southern borders of lower Central America.

The book’s chapters, written by experts in the field of Mesoamerican Mesoamerican Animals of Mesoamerican zooarchaeology, provide important general background on the domestic and ritual use of animals in early and classic Mesoamerica and Central America, but deal also with special aspects of human–animal relationships such as early domestication and symbolism of animals, and important yet edited by Christopher M.
