Reprogramming the History of Video Games
This paper explores the need and opportunities for historians to recognize the importance of video games to their research in modern American history. While this paper is rooted in examples specific to United States history, the call for historians to examine video games, engage with the rich field of games studies, and explore video games as sources in historical scholarship is a universal one, applicable to all fields of history. In this paper …

Coordinated river infrastructure decisions improve net social-ecological benefits
We explore the social, ecological, economic, and technical dimensions of sustainable river infrastructure development and the potential benefits of coordinating decisions such as dam removal and stream crossing improvement. Dam removal is common practice for restoring river habitat connectivity and ecosystem health. However, stream crossings such as culverts are often 15 times more abundant than dams and may pose similar ecological impacts. Using…
Mudslinging on Twitter During the 2014 Election
Following the work of Evans, Cordova, and Sipole, we examine the way that candidates for congressional seats in 2014 used Twitter during the last 2 months of their campaign. Using a content analysis of every tweet sent by all candidates for both the US House and Senate, we show that particular individual-level and campaign-specific characteristics are related to whether and how often candidates go negative on Twitter. In particular, we show that …

Towards usefully secure email
We have built attribute based, usefully secure email (ABUSE), a system that leverages users by enabling them to build a decentralized, nonhierarchical public key infrastructure (PKI) to express their trust relationships with each other, and then use this PKI to manage their trust in people with whom they correspond via secure email. Our design puts humans into the system - to do things that humans are good at but machines are not - at both the cr…
A Spy in your Pocket'? The Regulation of Mobile Data in the UK
The growth of mobile digital communication devices has seen a corresponding growth in the data created by users in the course of their mobile communications. The ease with which such data - including sensitive time-dependent location information - can be collected and stored raises clear data protection and concerns. The value such data offers to both law enforcement agencies and the private sector has complicated regulatory responses to such dat…
