  • Deceptive & Counter-Deceptive Machines .5
    Deceptive & Counter-Deceptive Machines .5 (Founding) Symposium at IACAP 2013 When & Where: Specific T&P during conference span July 15{17 2013, TBA Kubrick's landmark film 2001 features an at once deceptive and counter-deceptive machine (HAL 9000), and deceptive and (desperately) counter-deceptive humans. Is this volatile mixture our future in a microcosm? Yes, and the mixture is materializing before our very eyes, in no small part because: humans bent on doing great harm can only succeed if they deceive; our best bet for thwarting such humans is probably to enlist the power of counter- deceptive machines; deceptive machines are becoming a crucial part of the Defense arsenal, for PSYOPS and more; and so on. But: Can machines really deceive us? Can they deceive each other? What is deception? Can there be both a science and engineering of machine deception and counter-deception? If so, what would it look like? How can we have a science and engineering of trust in a machine-human space if we don't understand deception and counter-deception? How can we effectively use machines to counter deception perpetrated by machines, and by humans? ::: On these topics, 4 presentations & a follow-on round-table discussion ::: (titles, abstracts, bios follow) A Future for Lying Machines Micah Clark & David Atkinson This talk addresses the present and future potential of autonomous systems that manipulate, mislead, and deceive. As we will show, such \lying machines" already exist, albeit in a nascent state. Lying machines have rather obvious applications in social networking, cyber-security, and state intelligence, as tools for both targeted subversion and broad persuasion campaigns.

  • (Mphil) and Doctor of Philosophy (Phd) 1. Introduction 2
    32. Regulations for the Degrees of Master of Philosophy (MPhil) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) 1. Introduction The purpose of these regulations, and any related policies, guidelines and procedures established by the Open University of Mauritius, is to assure and enhance the quality of education and training of doctoral students, and to create a framework that guides and supports the student and their supervisors. MPhil; MPhil/PhD; and PhD are qualifications that can be obtained as a result of successful research work within a wide range of subjects. These programmes give an opportunity to students to make a significant contribution to knowledge. The MPhil degree is awarded to those having demonstrated the capacity to pursue original research and scholarship after having completed a substantial amount of supervised research based on a thorough literature review and sound research methodology. The degree of Doctor of Philosophy is conferred in recognition of the student’s contribution of an original piece of research revealing high critical ability and powers of imagination and synthesis. The PhD allows students to think independently and critically so that they can pursue research without any supervision. Apart from consulting the vast amount of literature available, students have to follow some courses while working on their research-based thesis. 2. Aim The MPhil/PhD and PhD courses aim at (a) empowering students so that they can significantly add to an existing body of knowledge; (b) providing a thorough grounding in research methodology, methods and techniques; (c) development of vital skills including critical thinking, conducting research independently, writing, synthesising, and analysing, that are necessary to produce an original research-based thesis; (d) empowering students to prepare a substantial and original thesis emanating from an in-depth investigation and analysis; and (e) empowering students to review current research critically, and understand emerging trends from an inter-disciplinary perspective.

This year’s guide features data collected in the 2018–19 survey year (except where otherwise noted). When we published the inaugural Business School Data Guide in 2000, the business education landscape was considerably different. Through the data submitted over time, we have been able to track some of these shifts in quantifiable ways. In 2000, we shared that business schools were just beginning to explore the prospects for distance education. Over the last 20 years, we have seen an ongoing drive for more variety of program formatting, with online options, but also with varied delivery times to cater to non-traditional learners or alternative needs (such as accelerated, evening/weekend, and modular formats). To reflect the importance that these various delivery methods have had for business education, for the first time in the data guide you will find business school degree programs by delivery method.
