This applied research project provides the Security, Suitability, and Credentialing (SSC) Performance Accountability Council Program Management Office (PAC PMO) with an examination of how U.S. government vetting processes and procedures could be enhanced by application of mobile technologies and platforms. The research team identified key mobile platform and security factors to consider when communicating with and screening candidates within the SSC process. This report also describes relevant private-sector practices on talent acquisition, applicant tracking systems, screening methods, and communication strategies with candidates prior to the onboarding process. The RAND research team performed the following tasks for the PAC PMO: (1) categorize emerging mobile technology platforms according to SSC process relevance and ability to assist government vetting of personnel; (2) illustrate relevant practices and lessons learned for integrating security applications with mobile platforms; and (3) provide recommendations on how best to incorporate potentially useful private-sector screening practices to create efficiency within initial stages of the SSC process.

"Das Corona-Protokoll" ist ein bunter Mix aus bewegenden, skurrilen und atemberaubenden Ereignissen, die unser Leben seit Ende 2019 völlig auf den Kopf gestellt haben.Immer wissenschaftlich fundiert, zugleich aber auch an der einen oder anderen passenden Stelle humorvoll kommentiert. Denn seien wir mal ehrlich: Kraftraubend und nervig ist COVID-19 ohnehin schon genug gewesen.Zeitzeugen aus Ländern wie den USA, Indien oder Brasilien - die besonders stark vom Virus heimgesucht wurden -, berichten von "Knallhart-Lockdowns", "Stockhieben auf Passanten" und "dramatischen Ausnahmesituationen". Aber auch Menschen aus Nationen wie Bangladesch und Kasachstan, die bisher eher unter dem Radar flogen, erzählen ihre ganz persönliche Corona-Geschichte.Außerdem erklären zwei Intensivmediziner, darunter der Oberarzt der Level-1-Intensivstation der Charité, wie sie mit dem täglichen Tod leben müssen. Es sind 1111 Tage mit dem Virus, die sich anfühlen wie in einem Science-Fiction-Film. Mit der großen Hoffnung auf das Happy End.

Filtering and smoothing methods are used to produce an accurate estimate of the state of a time-varying system based on multiple observational inputs (data). Interest in these methods has exploded in recent years, with numerous applications emerging in fields such as navigation, aerospace engineering, telecommunications and medicine. This compact, informal introduction for graduate students and advanced undergraduates presents the current state-of-the-art filtering and smoothing methods in a unified Bayesian framework. Readers learn what non-linear Kalman filters and particle filters are, how they are related, and their relative advantages and disadvantages. They also discover how state-of-the-art Bayesian parameter estimation methods can be combined with state-of-the-art filtering and smoothing algorithms. The book's practical and algorithmic approach assumes only modest mathematical prerequisites. Examples include Matlab computations, and the numerous end-of-chapter exercises include computational assignments. Matlab code is available for download at www.cambridge.org/sarkka, promoting hands-on work with the methods.

Am Körper tragbare Sensoren, so genannte Wearables, werden im Sportbereich immer populärer. Wearables bieten Nutzern die Möglichkeit, Rückmeldung über Technik und sportliche Leistung in Echtzeit zu erhalten, während sie Wissenschaftlern Einblicke in die Biomechanik und Physiologie von Sportlern außerhalb des Labors ermöglichen. Eine der ersten Sportarten, in welcher viele Athleten Wearables nutzten, war der Ausdauerlauf. Seit der Einführung von Smartphones und Smartwatches haben viele Läufer begonnen, sich selbst zu tracken und ein digitales Trainingstagebuch zu führen. Durch die große Anzahl an Nutzern weltweit, die ihre Daten an Fitness Plattformen übertragen haben, entstanden große Datenbanken, die nun Big Data Analysen \mbox{ermöglichen. Diese} Art von Analysen bieten Wissenschaftlern die Möglichkeit, generische Schlussfolgerungen aus longitudinalen Studien basierend auf einer größeren Anzahl an Nutzern zu ziehen als jemals zuvor.Die in dieser Dissertation präsentierten Studien zeigen zum einen, wie Rohdaten von am Körper tragbaren inertialen Messeinheiten im Ausdauerlaufen zu interpretierbaren Laufparametern verarbeitet werden und zum anderen, wie Big Data von Fitness Plattformen genutzt werden kann, um Erkenntnisse im Marathon Training zu erlangen.

Former Wall Street Journal technology reporter Yukari Iwatani Kane delves deep inside Apple in the two years since Steve Jobs's death, revealing the tensions and challenges CEO Tim Cook and his team face as they try to sustain Jobs's vision and keep the company moving forward.Steve Jobs's death raised one of the most pressing questions in the tech and business worlds: Could Apple stay great without its iconic leader? Many inside the company were eager to prove that Apple could be just as innovative as it had been under Jobs. Others were painfully aware of the immense challenge ahead. As its business has become more complex and global, Apple has been subject to intense scrutiny, much of it critical. Maintaining market leadership is crucial as it tries to conquer new frontiers and satisfy the public's insatiable appetite for "insanely great" products.Based on more than two hundred interviews with current and former executives, business partners, Apple watchers, and others, Haunted Empire is an illuminating portrait of Apple today that offers clues to its future. With nuanced insights and colorful details that only a seasoned journalist could glean, Kane goes beyond the myths and headlines. She explores Tim Cook's leadership and its impact on Jobs's loyal lieutenants, new product development, and Apple's relationships with Wall Street, the government, tech rivals, suppliers, the media, and consumers. Hard-hitting yet fair, Haunted Empire reveals the perils and opportunities an iconic company faces when it loses its visionary leader.
