Show moreCourse catalog for evening classes in art and design at Abraham Lincoln School (30 West Washington Street, Chicago, Illinois). Class topics were layout and typography, basic design, home planning, and photography, and the classes were taught, at least in part, by students from the Institute of Design, including Mary Henry, Morton Goldsholl, and Jack Waldheim. This catalog is Mary Henry's personal copy, and her inscription on the rear cover reads "While I was a student at the Institute of Design I taught one semester at the Abraham Lincoln School - no salary involved! This is my only copy. M.H." Date of leaflet is unknown, date range indicated is inferred from Mary Henry's dates of attendance at the Institute of Design.

Show moreVolume 2 of Integral, the 1899 yearbook for the Armour Institute of Technology. The Armour Institute of Technology yearbooks was known by three different titles: Integral (1898-1910), Senior Class Book (1911-1912), and The Cycle (1913-1940). A 1902 volume of Integral is not a part of Galvin Library collections; it is uncertain of a yearbook was published that year. Publication of the Armour Institute ceased in 1941, when the Armour Institute of Technology merged with the Lewis Institute to form Illinois Institute of Technology.

The meeting was opened with an unidentified person (possibly George Danforth, chairman of Architecture or Dr. Antonis Tritsis) reading the statement by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (as director of the Armour Institute of Technology department of architecture) published in the 1939-1940 AIT Bulletin (academic catalog) identifying the philosophy and content of the 5-year architecture course. The IIT architecture curriculum is discussed before meeting begins.

Show moreOur subject is how the experience of Americans with a certain funding criterion, “broader impacts” (and some similar criteria) may help in efforts to turn the European concept of Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) into a useful guide to funding Europe’s scientific and technical research. We believe this comparison may also be as enlightening for Americans concerned with revising research policy. We have organized our report around René Von Schomberg’s definition of RRI, since it seems both to cover what the European research group to which we belong is interested in and to be the only widely accepted definition of RRI. According to Von Schomberg, RRI: “… is a transparent, interactive process by which societal actors and innovators become mutually responsive to each other with a view to the (ethical) acceptability, sustainability and societal desirability of the innovation process and its marketable products (in order to allow a proper embedding of scientific and technological advances in our society).” While RRI seeks fundamental changes in the way research is conducted, Broader Impacts is more concerned with more peripheral aspects of research: widening participation of disadvantaged groups, recruiting the next generation of scientists, increasing the speed with which results are used, and so on. Nevertheless, an examination of the broadening of funding criteria over the last four decades suggests that National Science Foundation has been moving in the direction of RRI.

Show moreAn RF measurement system with high time resolution is implemented to determine the statistical characteristics of various channels in the Land Mobile Radio bands. The applicability of simple statistical models to the observed data is investigated, as well as their validity over short and long periods of time. The results show that the statistics of the idle and holding times of communication on these channels vary significantly over time and demonstrate daily periodicity, requiring non-stationary models to accurately represent them. Over short durations of time however, conventional distributions such as the exponential and lognormal may adequately characterize the properties of these quantities, allowing convenient and compact representations of the data. Results based on empirical data are presented to quantify the probability of stationarity for voice traffic within a time span of given length. The findings are useful for network planning or streamlining, network simulation and modeling, and investigation of dynamic spectrum access.

Show moreThis article describes China’s century-long concern with the professional ethics of engineers, especially a succession of codes of engineering ethics going back at least to 1933. This description is the result both of our own archival research and of “philosophical history”, the application of concepts from the philosophy of professions to the facts historians (or we) have discovered. Engineers, historians, social scientists, and philosophers of technology, as well as students of professional ethics, should find this description interesting. It certainly provides a reason to wonder whether those who write about codes of professional ethics as if they were an Anglo-American export unlikely to put down roots elsewhere might have overlooked many early codes outside English-speaking countries. While code writers in China plainly learned from Western codes, the Chinese codes were not mere copies of their Western counterparts. Indeed, the Chinese codes sometimes differed inventively from Western codes in form (for example, being wholly positive) or content (for example, protecting local culture).

The application of a new theme harmonized the repository's look with that of the university and library web sites, added more fluid and natural mobile responsiveness, and brought the repository up to contemporary standards in terms of style and functionality. This poster highlights some of the new features of the new theme, and identify some of the challenges that arose when modifying this theme for use at IIT.

Show moreAnalyzing free-form natural language expressions “in the network”—that is, on programmable switches and smart NICs—would enable packet-handling decisions that are based on the textual content of flows. This analysis would support richer, latency-critical data services that depend on language analysis—such as emergency response, misinformation classification, customer support, and query-answering applications. But packet forwarding and processing decisions usually rely on simple analyses based on table look-ups that are keyed on well-defined (and usually fixed size) header fields. P4 is the state of the art domain-specific language for programming network equipment, but, to the best of our knowledge, analyzing free-form text using P4 has not yet been investigated. Although there is an increasing variety of P4-programmable commodity network hardware available, using P4 presents considerable technical challenges for text analysis since the language lacks loops and fractional datatypes. This paper presents the first Bayesian spam classifier written in P4 and evaluates it using a standard dataset. The paper contributes techniques for the tokenization, analysis, and classification of free-form text using P4, and investigates trade-offs between classification accuracy and resource usage. It shows how classification accuracy can be tuned between 69.1% and 90.4%, and how resource usage can be reduced to 6% by trading-off accuracy. It uses the spam filtering use-case to motivate the need for more research into in network text analysis to enable future “semantic analysis” applications in programmable networks.
