  • NATO and the European Union’s Response to Peacebuilding

    Work
    Type:
    Dataset
    Description/Abstract:
    The NATO and the EU Peacebuilding Missions Dataset is created to use fuzzy seta Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) analysis as a method of researching how NATO and the EU missions’ outcomes are influences by organizational assets and decision-making in both organizations. Outcome pertaining to these two sets of missions are intended to measure various aspects of organizational efficacy. There are two groups of variables – condition variables and outcome variables. In the next few sections, we will explain how these two groups of variables were generated, what existing sources and datasets were used and how mission indicators were generated. See attached research note for more detailed information. Condition Sets: Description By and large, conditions sets that have been generated measure organizational assets for these NATO and EU missions, as well as patterns in their decision-making process. Two critical organizational assets used for both sets of missions are their annual operational budget and their annual deployed personnel. The dataset contains two control variables measuring operational legitimacy – number of contributing nations and number of UN resolutions passed in relevance to the situation in the area of deployment for the duration of the EU and NATO Mission. Operational Duration – duration of the operation (in months). For ongoing missions and operations, we have used December 31, 2019 as the end date. All data reflect occurrences no later than December 31, 2019. Type of Operation – based on their mandate, operations are classified as civilian (coded as 0), military (coded as 1) and hybrid (i.e. with military and civilian components, coded as 0.5). Annual Operational Budget – total annual mission budget in USD. Sources include SIPRI yearbook and peace operations database. In cases of missing data from the SIPRI yearbook, mission factsheets and original data from the mission have been used. This latter technique applies for the following missions: AMUK, AVSEC, BAM1, BAM2, CAP1, CAP2, MAM1, NAVF1, NAVF2, TMC1, EUAMI. If data is reported in EUR, average exchange rate for the duration of the mission has been used to convert the cost. Data has been adjusted to reflect operational budget over a 12-month period. Average Annual Mission Personnel – it reflects the average total number of personnel/ staff supporting the NATO or EU peacebuilding mission per annum. Sources have been collected from SIPRI yearbook based on reportings for actual deployments on the ground. In cases when no data has been reported I the SIPRI yearbook/ peace operations dataset, mission factsheets and original data from the mission have been used. The data has been averaged and adjusted for a 12-month period. Days to Launch – describes the number of days needed from the time a decision has been made by the IO top decision-making body (the European Council and NAC) to launch the mission to the time that the mission is officially declared “operational.” If no declaration that the mission is “fully operational” exists, landmark indicators that the mission is fully operational include: ceremony on the ground marking the beginning of the mission, the appointment of mission commander or first recoded operational presence involving activity on the ground. Sources include official EU and NATO documents announcing the decision to create the peacebuilding operation as well as official documents, press releases and reports in reliable media outlets (including New Agencies) documenting an event that would indicate the mission is “fully operational.” Number of Contributing Nations –highest reported number of contributing nations for the duration of the NATO and the EU peacebuilding operation. UN Security Council Resolutions – total number of UN Security Council (UNSG) resolutions relevant for the area of conflict adopted for the duration of the NATO and the EU mission. In cases when UNSC resolutions are relevant for multiple NATO and EU peacebuilding missions those have been reported to all relevant missions. Outcome Sets: Description Outcome sets include various indicators created to measure operational efficacy. They include annual events contributing toward peace, conflict and the mission’s functioning, annual fatalities and annual deaths among mission personnel, as well as annual difference in fatalities. A more detailed description of these indicators is included below: Annual Peace Events – this is an annual indicator based on chronologically recorded events by the SIPRI yearbook that have contributed for the peace process in the conflict area where NATO and EU mission have been deployed. Examples of peace events include steps taken to contribute to the peace process (e.g. creation of buffer zone, cession of hostilities, meeting intended to cease fire or set up the peace process, political events related to or contributing toward the peace process and successful conclusion of a peace agreement. It may also include a decision of an international body (e.g. UN Security Council, UN General Assembly or UN Secretary General, as well as a decision made by the NATO and the EU D-M bodies that contributes toward the peace process in the areas where the mission operates. For ongoing missions is December 31, 2017 the last date when annual peace events are recoded. Annual Conflict Events -- this is an annual indicator based on chronologically recorded events by the SIPRI yearbook that have increased the conflict and the conflict potential in the area where NATO and EU mission have been deployed. Instances include resumption of hostilities among warring parties, occurrence of attacks, clashes, eruption of violence, the killing of civilians, military and peacemaking personnel and other violence-related events that contribute toward instability in the mission’s area. For ongoing missions is December 31, 2017 the last date when annual conflict events are recoded. Annual Mission-related Events -- this is an annual indicator based on chronologically recorded events by the SIPRI yearbook that measures events related to functioning of the mission – the decision to launch, the actual launch, implementation, transfer of authority and/ or mandate, transformation and termination of the mission. It also includes events that reflect decisions made by the contributing nations or sponsoring IOs intended to impact mission’s performances (e.g. decisions related to funding, control and command, transformation of mission mandate and rules and other similar events). For ongoing missions is December 31, 2017 the last date when annual mission-related events are recoded. Average Annual Fatalities – this indicator reports how many average annual civilian deaths have been recorded for the duration of the mission. The data is drawn from the Armed Conflict Dataset (ACD) managed by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies ( https://acd.iiss.org/member/datatools.aspx). Average Annual Mission Casualties – average annual number of deaths among peacebuilding personnel as reported in SIPRI yearbook/ peace operations database for the duration of the mission. Authors have used discretion to determine the accuracy in cases when there is discrepancy of reported data. Fatalities Annual Difference – an indicator of differenced annual data of civilian casualties on the ground for the duration of the mission. The indicator is calculated as follows: Differenced Fatalities = Ʃ (CasualtiesY1-Y2 … Casualties Yn-Y(n-1))/ Duration of the mission (in years). It is intended to capture improvement of situation on the ground as a result of presence of the peacebuilding effort. Condition Sets: Calibration and Rationale Annual Operational Budget – mission budget reflects resources USD 5 million or less indicate fully out while USD 100 million or more would indicate fully in. A budget of USD 30 should be the watershed borderline of “nether in, not out.” [5-100 million] Average Annual Mission Personnel – this indicator draws distinction between larger well-resourced missions and smaller missions with limited assets. By and large, missions with 20 personnel or less are fully out, while those with 20,000 or more are fully in. The borderline (net hither in, not out) is 130 people. Days to Launch – the speed with which the decision is taken indicates how decision-making operated in the case of this mission. D-M that took 5 days or less should be fully out (in, change direction) while D-M 150 days or more should be fully in (out, change direction). 30 days (1 month) should be the neither in, nor out border. Number of Contributing Nations –control indicator that demotes how high number of contributing nations contribute toward greater legitimacy (30 or more countries marks fully in), while 5 or fewer nations marks fully out. The “nether fully in, nor fully out” is at 15 nations. UN Security Council Resolutions – total number of UNSC resolutions can vary, fully out is at 0 resolutions while fully in at 50 or more. Since moist of the missions are shorter, Nether fully in, not fully out would be at 8 UNSC resolutions. [Inductive] Operational Duration – 1 year (12 months) denotes fully out (i.e. short-term mission) while 10 year 120 months denotes fully in; nether in not out would be for missions lasting 5 years (60 months). In other words, a decade is too long, a year is to short, five years is in the middle. Outcome Variables: Calibration and Rationale Annual Peace Events – this variable measures the occurrence of peace-related events – 0 events per annum is fully out; 3 events per annum is fully in. 0.8 event is nether in not out. Annual Conflict Events -- this variable measures the occurrence of conflict-related events – 0 events per annum is fully out; 4 events per annum is fully in. 1 event is nether in not out. Annual Mission-related Events -- this variable measures the occurrence of peace-related events – 0 events per annum is fully out; 1 events per annum is fully in. 0.3 event is nether in not out. Average Annual Fatalities – this set measures average number of annual fatalities for the duration of the mission. Cases with 0 fatalities are fully out; cases with 10,000 fatalities are fully in. 1,000 fatalities represent “nether in, not out” value. Fatalities Annual Difference – this is an indicator that measures the average year-to-year difference in number of fatalities for the duration of the conflict. -50 casualties is fully out (i.e. average growth of casualties by 50 per annum) as this indicator reflects low mission efficacy. 500 is fully in. This number indicates high efficacy; it denotes an average annual decline of casualties by 500 people. If the average number of casualties remains unchanged, then 0 denotes nether in, nor out. Average Annual Mission Casualties – this indicator measures average number of annual casualties for the duration of the mission. 0 casualties is fully out; 500 casualties is fully in. 0.5 is nether in, nor out.

  • Machines and Gardens (Cincinnati Modern)

    8p58pf525?file=thumbnail
    Type:
    Article
    Description/Abstract:
    Leo Marx, in his famous 1964 book, “The Machine in the Garden,” proposed that a central conflict in the American psyche resulted from the industrialization of the unspoiled, Eden-like landscapes of the new world. Wright’s Organic Modernism perhaps allowed 20th-century Americans to unconsciously feel that they could “resolve" that conflict by living in harmony with nature, while International Style Modernism and its machine-like buildings perhaps pointed too directly to the tragedy of industrial capitalism’s despoiling of the environment.

    Type:
    Dataset
    Description/Abstract:
    This CSV file contains the topic distribution of each EIN as uncovered using six parallel Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) Topic Models. Each row depicts a topic and topic-score associated with an Ohio NPO (identified by Employer Identification Number) generated from one model run. The sum of topic scores possible for every row associated with an EIN therefore will not exceed 6.0 (6 models x 100%) Topic scores below .01 (1%) are not included. Each topic from the models is further identified as Essential/Non-Essential by subject matter expert, Dr. Michael Jones, guided by the official IRS definition. The topic models are generated on unstructured text language from the mission statement and activities language taken from the 2019 tax forms of Ohio non-profit organizations.

    Type:
    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    Insiders pose a real threat to the security of data centers. The Chock-o-Lock is an auxiliary security system that uses facial recognition to authenticate users. The system will require the user to authenticate first at the door to the server room and then again to gain access to each individual server rack. The system will log all attempts to access the data center and server racks, along with other important security information. Security teams will be able to easily control who can enter the data center and regulate the number of people in the data center at one time, restrict the access of each user only to the specific server racks they need to work on, audit the logs recording all data center accesses, and gain a clear picture of data center usage.

    Description/Abstract:
    My Neutral News is a web application that is a hub for media regarding popular social justice issues. Its focus is on easily sharable articles and those respective articles having their political leanings identified by a red-to-blue color gradient. To identify media by their political leaning, the more vibrant and redder the article is highlighted on My Neutral News, the more right leaning the source is. On the other end, the bluer an article, the more left leaning an article is. This will make an easy user experience when it comes to trying to find unbiased media, as well as work to disrupt echo chambers present in social media currently. My Neutral News is created using C# on Visual Studio, hosted in an Azure Dev Ops app service, and visitable via myneutralnews.org. The App Service in Azure is based off ASP .Net Core framework and data is held in a SQL server database.

    Description/Abstract:
    The Astrum Network Scanner provides small business IT administrators the ability to keep their endpoints secure while saving time and money. According to CenturyLink in 2019, the average cost for network monitoring tools for a business of 100 devices could end up being a pricey $2,656 a year (CenturyLink)†. We have worked towards making an inexpensive and unique solution available. The scanner utilizes Linux-based scripting to scan endpoints and report on any common vulnerabilities as recommended by NIST. This allows IT administrators to automate a large portion of their security auditing. All this scanning capability is achieved through a one-time deployment of the Astrum solution. Astrum is inexpensive, open-source, and perfect for small businesses on a budget.

    Description/Abstract:
    Omnigistics is a scalable inventory management system that offers an intuitive approach to optimizing logistics operations for small to medium-sized companies. Small businesses either do not track inventory or use a manual method that can contribute to disorganization, resulting in costly inventory mistakes and accidental redundancy. Existing solutions offer inventory management modules as a smaller feature within an overcomplicated product. Omnigistics enables organizations to mass control item prices, combine goods and services, and track transactions. The application also improves customers' overall logistical process resulting in higher marginal profits and lower execution time.

We believe that by partnering our app with UC Student Government, we hope to provide meaningful improvements across the campus. The University of Cincinnati’s current system does not provide nearly enough visibility into how the student body as a whole feels about a topic. Our application will provide a forum-like outlet for students to voice concerns and suggest improvements by making posts, reviewing current issues, and engaging in discussions related to current topics or issues via reading posts from peers and Student Government.

    Description/Abstract:
    In the beginning of 2020, America was forced to go into lockdown due to COVID-19. With the lockdown, everyone was forced to cook and bake for themselves and their families. Many people do not know how to cook or bake, so they resorted to online solutions such as YouTube videos. However, just following tutorials does not give the person the fundamentals on how to cook or bake. Our proposed solution, Make IT Simple, is a web application that gives people the concrete foundation of cooking and baking while having a safe and secure experience. Any visitor can view the web application content. Users can choose to have a more interactive and customized experience by creating an account with minimal personal identifiable information. Make IT Simple’s goal is to inspire more people to get into the kitchen and have more confidence in their ability to cook and bake.

    Description/Abstract:
    Tens of millions of people use smart devices in their homes providing convenience by using virtual assistants like the Google Assistant, Amazon’s Alexa, and Apple’s Siri. These assistants are always on and listening for commands to provide the power to turn on your TV, open a recipe, play your favorite music, or start a video chat. However, that functionality to always be on has a security downside in that these devices are listening to everything that happens in the home. Bloomberg reports that Amazon has this private voice data and with the lack of security in most home networks, hackers could too. The Home Office System provides an easy way to turn off all of your smart device microphones at the hardware level in an easy to configure and foolproof way. By giving people the power to easily control their virtual assistants, we can have truly secure, smart homes.

    Many college graduates struggle to find a job after graduation. One reason for this is that it is a daunting task to find like-minded people interested in working on a variety of projects. Even if students are looking for a simple real-world side project to develop their skills, there are few places they can turn to in their search. "Mission Source" is a platform that is aimed at solving this problem. Users are able to go on this platform to find people to collaborate with, seek help with a side project, look for a hackathon group, and other similar activities. The platform is open to all colleges and majors that attend the same university. Having access to such a platform allows students to gain experience, develop new skills, and expand their networking group.

    TutorialHeaven is an online learning solution to provide users a more personalized learning experience over the industry’s leading online asynchronous platforms. With the combination of an asynchronous approach, a feedback loop that points the learner to their weakest subject material, the ability for course creators to make their course along with assessments in one platform, TutorialHeaven can greatly improve the experience both for the learner and instructor. The one-size-fits-all approach of asynchronous learning content neglects student’s performance and ignores the effectiveness of conventional teaching practices, which leads to difficulties in knowledge retention and skill acquisition. These issues will be addressed by providing learners automatic feedback on their assessments, along with real communication channels for instructors and their course participants to engage with each other.

    Description/Abstract:
    Research shows that just over half of the country’s law enforcement academies received comprehensive training on cybercrime cases and investigations. Law Enforcement Information Portal is a website that bridges that gap. The home page is a dashboard showing up-to-date statistics of crime in the local area, as well as an interactive map of the local area. Working with a database on the backend, one of the features is a search for information on popular Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that, upon search submission, will detail contact information, a link to the ISP’s law enforcement guide, and information on data retention, where to send subpoenas, and more. Other features include an extensive phone directory of local law enforcement and services contacts, a directory of links to each of the 50 states’ sex offender registry pages, and a guide full of helpful tips on preserving digital evidence. Law Enforcement Information Portal intends to aid law enforcement in the office or out in the field during investigations.

    Description/Abstract:
    Hotel Helper is an automated Housekeeping management system created using Node.JS and Angular to alleviate hotel staff of tedious and manual administrative tasks. The importance of minimizing labor costs is a generally a priority of hotel owners, but the impact COVID-19 has made on the hospitality industry makes it even more crucial for hotel owners to save money where they can. Housekeeping management software on the market is expensive and contains many unnecessary features for most hotels. As a result, many hotels prefer to use a manual pen and paper process, but this process is very inefficient. Hotel Helper serves as a cost friendly, simple web application alternative that allows managers and housekeeping staff to communicate in a two-way manner with updates on room cleaning progress, late checkouts, along with any other room related requests. Hotel Helper increases hotel staff efficiency, minimizes owner expenses, and streamlines the housekeeping process through the modernization of an outdated pen and paper procedure to an easy to use web application.

  • Risk Assessment v4.0

    Type:
    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    Prisoner recidivism is a growing problem in the United States. Offenders often find themselves rearrested and returned to the system after a few short years. The IT Solution Center’s Risk Assessment System was developed as a web based solution to risk assessment and offers a variety of tools to better manage offenders, conduct risk assessments, and facilitate the reduction of offender recidivism. Since that original development process, more states have adopted use of the Risk Assessment System, and that original mold doesn’t always fit the needs of the new users. The Risk Assessment System v4.0 includes a complete front-end framework migration and improves upon the original v3.0 approach by adding some highly requested features. Notable highlights are enhancements to data reporting via the Research Portal, merging/unmerging of offender records, role/permission management, and a chronological offender timeline. This project also focused on creating a more robust database infrastructure through the use of logical replication to an external-server replica. Lastly, a .csv file upload application was developed to take the place of API integrations in the case that clients are unable to build a data upload solution of their own. These features were completed and iterated with a heavy focus on user satisfaction and configurability. Bulletproof functionality, ease of use, and user interface simplicity were all driving factors in achieving positive user acceptance results.

    Type:
    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    Political Tap is a web and mobile tool designed to help American voters make informed decisions about representatives and candidates during elections. According to a 2018 poll, approximately 29% of surveyed citizens claimed that they were not well-informed about their candidates, with only 14% being registered voters. In another 2018 survey, roughly 45% of participants reported having very little to no trust in television news. American voters do not feel as if they have the proper outlets of information on candidates' values while also not being aware of who is on the ballot. Our solution to these problems relies on developing an application which provides a list of candidates to users based on location and highlights their positions on major political issues through aggregated social media posts. This helps increase voter awareness and allows for easier comparison among candidates, making citizens feel more comfortable, confident, and knowledgeable at the polls.

    Description/Abstract:
    Lightning Carryout is a solution for small restaurants looking to expand their online customer base. While apps like Uber Eats send partners an iPad to run a separate point of sale system, the Mobile Ordering App utilizes the Square API integrating directly with the restaurant’s existing point of sale system. Furthermore, food delivery apps like Door Dash charge restaurants exorbitant fees. Large chain restaurants like McDonald’s and Chipotle have proprietary apps that allow for online ordering, but many small restaurants do not have the customer base or funds to have their own app developed. Lightning Carryout provides users the ability to select small businesses from a list or map, view menu items, and order from within the app. Our team’s app allows users to not only support small businesses but ensure that more of their bill goes to the owners and employees, rather than large corporations.

    LinkTailor is a virtual “wardrobe” where instead of arranging clothes, one can arrange links (to applications, files, and websites), treating them as garments that can be styled, tagged, and organized into outfits for any occasion. Current link-management solutions lack grid layouts, mass-opening of links, and user customization. So LinkTailor was developed to give users flexibility for their own workflow. LinkTailor can be installed on both Windows and Mac, being coded within Electron and thus with web languages and utilizes the Vue.js framework. LinkTailor even sports integration with the Windows context menu. The final product allows users to save links in grid-based layouts, re-arrange with drag-and-drop, and assign custom tags. Development is continuing as the LinkTailor team continues to add additional conveniences.

    Accessible Wayfinding: McMapping Edition is route-finding web application, compliant with guidelines laid out in the Americans with Disabilities Act Standards for Accessible Design, that provides users with accessible routes within the Arts and Sciences building, formally known as McMicken Hall. The University of Cincinnati's recent accessibility initiative uncovered significant deficits in the campus’ overall accessibility. While this initiative has improved many elements of the university campus, it has yet to address needed improvements for those navigating inside UC’s buildings. The McMapping wayfinding web application is designed to provide students, faculty, staff, and visitors with mobility concerns the means to navigate through the Arts and Sciences building with peace of mind. By utilizing Phaser, the application will feature visual route guidance as an individual can first, select a starting location and a target destination within the establishment. The program provides the most accessible route to that spot. In addition to accessible route guidance, authenticated users can use saved routes and notification features to quickly identify previously used routes and to help other users navigate their way to success!

    Description/Abstract:
    Omniscient File Assistant is a file management platform created for easy monitoring of file systems of remote end-user workstations. With the number of employees working from home now eclipsing 66%, the likelihood of insider misuse is at an all-time high as employees may struggle to balance their new work life (Herhold). Through its monitoring and analysis features, OFA allows an organization to mitigate improper device usage and data storage before serious security incidents arise. Capabilities include regular metadata collection, centralized data storage and reporting, file matching via hashing and other criteria, file content scanning, server backups, and a robust searching tool. By utilizing Omniscient File Assistant, an organization can lessen their chances of having end-user issues by preventing long-term storage of personal files, storage of restricted materials, and unauthorized modifications. Omniscient File Assistant provides a one stop interface for administrators to log, flag, track and remove files at their discretion.
