Fairness-Aware Secure Integrated Sensing and Communications with Fractional Programming

We propose a novel secure integrated sensing and communications ISAC system designed to serve multiple communication users CUs and targets. To that end, we formulate an optimization problem that maximizes the secrecy rate under constraints balancing both communication and sensing requirements. To...

Immutability Does Not Guarantee Trust: a Formal and Logical Refutation

It is frequently claimed in blockchain discourse that immutability guarantees trust. This paper rigorously refutes that assertion. We define immutability as the cryptographic persistence of historical states in an append-only data structure and contrast it with trust, understood as a rational...
