Recent advances in technologies have created a need for solving security problems in a systematic way. With this in mind, network security technologies have been produced in order to ensure the security of software and communication functionalities at basic, enhanced, and architectural levels. Network Security Technologies: Design and Applications presents theoretical frameworks and the latest research findings in network security technologies while analyzing malicious threats which can compromise network integrity. This book is an essential tool for researchers and professionals interested in improving their understanding of the strategic role of trust at different levels of information and knowledge society.

Behavioural type systems in programming languages support the specification and verification of properties of programs beyond the traditional use of type systems to describe data processing. A major example of such a property is correctness of communication in concurrent and distributed systems, motivated by the importance of structured communication in modern software. Behavioural Types: from Theory to Tools presents programming languages and software tools produced by members of COST Action IC1201: Behavioural Types for Reliable Large-Scale Software Systems, a European research network that was funded from October 2012 to October 2016. As a survey of the most recent developments in the application of behavioural type systems, it is a valuable reference for researchers in the field, as well as an introduction to the area for graduate students and software developers.

Thie book describes how the theory of Nash Equilibrium described in the 27-page 1950 doctoral dissertation of John Nash, who spent over 40 years in a schizophrenic fog. Eventually economists discovered his work, and realized that it was a replacement for capitalism, in which lying was not permitted. The internet made this utopian scenario a real possiblity. In 1994, Nash was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics for his work with Nash Equilibrium. The author, an economist who studied at Rice University, describes how Nash Equilibrium could solve difficult problems in the "free market", which can only exist if Nash Equilibrium can be achieved: Topics include health care, crime prevention and rehabilitation, full employment, education, civility, and democracy. The equivalency of the outcomes of Nash Equilibrium and of Artificial Intelligence is examined, demonstrating that this is a technology that has already arrived; it's not science fiction. Using a new Internet protocol - HTTPV (the 'V' is for 'Verify') which essentially fact-checks websites and only displays their content if they survive a fact-checking verification step, each of these difficult problems can be dealt with in such a way as to ensure justice. In particular, ignorant voters will never again be allowed to elect an ignorant fool as President. The free market has failed us, as has democracy. Full disclosure of all relevant information, and using only facts to come to a decision, are the keys to dealing successfully with the most serious problems in our civilization. The author hopes that this book will start a dialog about how to fix our broken world.
