Abstract:
There are different ways to store and process large amount of data. Hadoop iswidely used, one of the most popular platforms to store huge amount of dataand process them in parallel. While storing sensitive data, security plays animportant role to keep it safe. Security was not that much considered whenHadoop was initially designed. The initial use of Hadoop was managing largeamount of public web data so confidentiality of the stored data was not anissue. Initially users and services in Hadoop were not authenticated; Hadoop isdesigned to run code on a distributed cluster of machines so without properauthentication anyone could submit code and it would be executed. Differentprojects have started to improve the security of Hadoop. Two of these projectsare called project Rhino and Project Sentry [1].Project Rhino implements splittable crypto codec to provide encryptionfor the data that is stored in Hadoop distributed file system. It also developsthe centralized authentication by implementing Hadoop single sign on whichprevents repeated authentication of the users accessing the same services manytimes. From the authorization point of view Project Rhino provides cell-basedauthorization for Hbase [2].Project Sentry provides fine-grained access control by supporting role-basedauthorization which different services can be bound to it to provide authorizationfor their users [3].It is possible to combine security enhancements which have been done inthe Project Rhino and Project Sentry to further improve the performance andprovide better mechanisms to secure Hadoop.In this thesis, the security of the system in Hadoop version 1 and Hadoopversion 2 is evaluated and different security enhancements are proposed, consideringsecurity improvements made by the two aforementioned projects, ProjectRhino and Project Sentry, in terms of encryption, authentication, and authorization.This thesis suggests some high-level security improvements on theCentralized authentication system (Hadoop Single Sign on) implementationmade by Project Rhino.

Abstract:

For this MFA exhibition, I created an illustrated book, which I had professionally printed and bound. I made thirty-five illustrations for the book, and twenty-five were exhibited in the gallery in addition to a printed book. The book is eight inches by eight inches. My original illustrations are larger, ranging from twelve by twelve inches to twelve by twenty-four inches, which sit across one entire spread in the book.

Banciao is a district in Taipei, Taiwan where I lived for four years during my undergraduate studies. The narrative is based on my experiences living away from home for the first time in an unfamiliar city. After having lived in different areas, I became interested in how people react and adapt to new environments. Our viewpoints change when we experience different cultures. For me, it is one of the most profound things that I have done in my life.

Abstract:

This group of paintings was informed by an investigation of the complex linear matrix of wires within telecommunications networks and data centers. As most of these processes are automated, I took interest in how they continue operating without our knowledge or attention, much like the functions of our own human bodies. I began to regard this wiring as the nervous system of our technologically driven modes of communication. With this as a metaphor, I began to question how the greater system of daily operations played into contemporary life, both physically and psychologically.

Often, it is not until we encounter a glitch or malfunction in these processes, that we even become aware of the system that generated them. I decided to take these faults in the wiring as visual metaphors and departure points to begin the intuitive process of painting. While my work has been instigated by a metaphorical investigation into technology, its core reflects the handmade; intuitive, and off-line. These paintings have evolved from an abstract relationship with technological transmission to an embodied metaphor for technology within human experience.

Abstract:

My work is inspired by modes of production that involve the creation, sampling, and remixing of objects, processes, and ideas that surround us. This methodology is especially prevalent in the creation and consumption of electronic music in recent decades. The fluidity and proliferation through digital processes are fascinating and not many rules of engagement have yet been established. I have created an installation where the viewer is free to engage the space, the process, or the single object. The components used to form the installation were grown, collected, or created using multiple methods of production. Some were printed employing computer numerically controlled fabrication, others were made through analog processes, and some were even grown naturally, were found, bought, or mined for. Concurrently I was working with an active 3D printer in the space, forming more components to the installation as time passed. I invited the viewer to explore the physical space as well as the objects and processes themselves. Together they built a sculptural space.

Gibson, Patrick. "Missa Familiae Sanctae| A project report." Thesis, California State University, Long Beach, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1591630.

Full text
Abstract:

This paper deals with the compositional process of writing my Mass, Missa Familiae Sanctae, and covers the influences I most keenly felt in that process. Two great masterpieces of this form of liturgical music from the Twentieth Century are carefully analyzed: Stravinsky's Mass (1948) and Leonard Bernstein's Mass: A Theatre Piece for Singers, Players and Dancers (1971). This paper draws connections to the techniques used by my illustrious predecessors and my own, and talks about the centrality of the text of the Ordinary of the Mass in all three works.

This paper is composed of two parts. The first part deals with the influence of these two Masses on the composition of Missa Familiae Sanctae. Here, I discuss the features of both my predecessors' Masses that proved most salient to my processes--the most crucial feature being treatment of the text. The second part of this paper is devoted to the methods of composition I employed in the creation of Missa Familiae Sanctae. I will illustrate both connections to past practices in my processes (put in context in the foregoing part of the paper), as well as the features of my Mass I believe to be unique.

An analytical methodology was best suited to a discussion of the compositional practices applied to the pieces discussed here. For the purposes of the composition of Missa Familiae Sanctae, it had the added benefit of aiding in my effort to inform myself of past practices and, thus, enabled me to determine my own methods of composing my Mass. For the purposes of this paper, this focus on analysis was most helpful in describing the musical language of each Mass, and allowed for some meaningful comparisons between my predecessors' Masses and my own. From these analyses, I identify commonalities in harmony, derivation of melodic material, treatment of text and orchestration, as well as investigate differences between Stravinsky and Bernstein's settings of the Mass and my own as a means of explaining my unique voice as a composer.

Abstract:
Since its origin in 2005, The NOLA Project has sought to bring innovative and high caliber works of theater to New Orleans audiences. Accustomed to performing in various venues due to lack of a permanent theatre, this nonprofit theater company has taken steps to plant roots in the community in other ways, including educational outreach for youth and the development of a new membership program. The purpose of this report is to document my internship with The NOLA Project from April 2014 through April 2015 and to analyze the effectiveness of the company’s operations. My analysis is based on experiences and insights gleaned from my time spent within the organization, focusing primarily on development tasks. I will evaluate the state of the company by addressing current strengths and weaknesses, as well as identifying possible opportunities and threats. This analysis will in turn serve as the basis for recommendations pertaining to plans for the company’s growth and success through the next decade of operation.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine the changes that occurred in teachers' thinking and practice as a result of taking part in the Early Numeracy Project (ENP). The study took place in the Junior department of a high decile primary school in the South Island. Data was collected using the following methods: • Three in-depth interviews with four teachers taking part in the ENP . Field notes gathered from cluster workshops and syndicate meetings The four participating teachers in this study agreed that the ENP brought about significant changes in the way they thought about and conducted their mathematics teaching. Their increasing confidence and enthusiasm was fuelled by the commitment and interest of the children in their class. The challenges and demands of the project were balanced by the knowledge that their children were taking an active and imaginative part in learning mathematics. Children were succeeding in an area often problematic for teachers. In what ways did the ENP change what teachers did in the classroom? What were the key factors that brought about these changes? What difficulties were encountered? This study describes the teachers' experiences on the ENP, traces significant parts of their journeys and gives a voice to their thoughts and feelings along the way.

Abstract:
This report, will show by demonstration with Network Penetration, how to reveal security holes by using the same methods as an outside attack and carry out attacks against wired and wireless networks when it comes to sniffing user traffic, abuse VLAN, cracking password, WEP, WPA/WPA2, hacking WPS and analysing traffic. The tests was performed at the Halmstad University with lab equipment and at home with own equipment. Using Backtrack 5 R3 which is compatible with Linux, performance of the tests could be done by making use of various tools that comes with Backtrack.The goal of the project was to demonstrate how to reveal security holes by using the same methods as an outside attack. By testing, demonstrate and report the security of wired and wireless network, the achievement of these goals could be done and a greater insight into network security was gained, which gives more experience and knowledge that can be taken to a future professional life. The results show how simple it can be to abuse a network or sniff a password if there is no attention to the safety and the security configurations that can be implemented.In other words, during this project, both learning and demonstration has been done to show how vulnerable individuals, civilians and entrepreneurs are. It is easier than someone can imagine to obtaining unauthorized information that nobody wants to share out.

Abstract:
The purpose of the SCRIT project is to determine size and shape of short-lived and rarely-produced nuclei by elastic electron scattering, which is the best probe for the structure studies, for the first time. In traditional electron scattering, a solid target having an order of 1023 nuclei/cm^2 is normally used, which is not possible for short-lived and rarely-produced nuclei. In this project a Self Containing Radioactive Isotope Target scheme (SCRIT) is going to be employed. This innovative ion-trap method is shown to be a way to make measurements with a very small amount of nuclei, an order of only 106 nuclei. In order to determine the absolute cross section for elastic electron scattering for structure study, the simulates measurement of the bremsstrahlung from the trapped nuclei is required. Since the bremsstrahlung cross section for a nucleus of the atomic number Z is well know, the precise measurement of the bremsstrahlung provides the luminosity. My theme in this SCRIT project was a construction of a bremsstrahlung luminosity monitor. It consists of a position monitor for measuring the spatial distribution of bremsstrahlung and a Pb-glass Cerenkov detector for energy measurement. My efforts have been mainly devoted to the construction of a position monitor system using fiber scintillators. The construction of the position monitor was divided into five parts; detector construction, support construction, trigger detector construction, software programming, software testing and detector tests. The position monitor consists of two sets of fiber scintillation detectors. Each of them uses 16 fibers, Bicron BCF-10 with a cross section of 2x2mm^2, optically coupled to a multi-anode photomultiplier, (Hamamatsu H6568-10). The position monitor can measure the XY distribution of bremsstrahlung. Strictly speaking, the fiber detector detects not bremsstrahlung directly but electrons and/or positrons by pair creation of bremsstrahlung in a materials. The data acquisition system has been programmed in NI LabVIEW. The software is an advanced X/Y-coordinate counting system, which can additionally preform functions as save data to file and 3D-plot to determine the spreading of the bremsstrahlung luminosity. The results can be saved and transferred online to a server so that is possible to access the data from anywhere. The system has been tested using beta rays from 90Sr source. The results of the test shown that the detectors can detect minimum ionizing particle, i.e. electrons and positrons. The detector and software testings shows that the system is ready to use for luminosity measurements at SCRIT experiment. This system I constructed surely provides a new and useful information for the SCRIT experiments.

Abstract:
Since 1995 educational achievement in New Zealand primary schools at year four and year eight has been examined and reported on by the National Education Monitoring Project (NEMP). Prior to this New Zealand students had participated in international educational studies that provided information in some curriculum areas. The aim ofNEMP was to gather information about the educational achievements ofNew Zealand pupils within the context ofNew Zealand education. This study looked specifically at the pupils involved in NEMP who are classified as special care (special needs), having physical or intellectual disabilities. The major questions explored were: 1) How do schools make decisions about which children will participate in NEMP studies? 2) What processes do schools go through in deciding whether to include or exclude students (in particular those defined as special care)? 3) How well does NEMP cater for the inclusion of students with physical and intellectual needs? Data was generated through phone interviews with seven Canterbury schools, all of which had excluded or included (or both) children with special needs in the 2001 NEMP process. The principle findings were that; Schools have clearly established consultative processes that are used in order to decide which children will participate in NEMP; The importance of the random sample is recognised and respected by schools; The support given to schools by NEMP is an important component in ensuring the success of the process.

Abstract:

The purpose of this project was to demonstrate whether a multifaceted quality improvement intervention program would improve hand hygiene compliance of healthcare providers (HCPs) in the Emergency Department (ED). A descriptive design with an observational approach was used with a convenience sample of ED healthcare personnel at a large, 500 bed community hospital. Seven hundred and fifty-eight hand hygiene compliance direct observations were collected during 3 time periods (baseline, pre-intervention and post-intervention observation periods). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze differences in hand hygiene compliance across the observation periods and by HCP job category.

The results indicated a statistically significant increase in hand hygiene compliance among all groups combined after a multifaceted intervention program was implemented. Efforts to change behavior, lifestyle and the environment must be varied and the target audience must be involved to be effective. This model can be applied to HCPs in other healthcare settings to improve compliance with hand hygiene, a fundamental infection prevention practice to prevent healthcare acquired infections.

The NLW database illustrates the extensive and eclectic literature regarding NLWs which covers the last few decades. It currently contains over 250 entries. It is important to have access not only to the more recent material, but also to earlier sources since many of the general debates and controversies have already been rehearsed, and lessons learnt from them are still relevant today. Yet, it is also vital to follow new developments of NLWs closely because rapidly changing technology is producing weapons whose implications for integration into military and civil police forces have yet to be clearly defined and understood. Of particular interest are not only NLW applications for war fighting, but opportunities for deployment in peace enforcement and peace keeping missions. These technologies span many bases including: psycho-chemicals; unmanned weapons platforms and delivery systems; biogenetics; acoustic and microwave weapons; biological and chemical weapons; laser systems; kinetic energy ballistics; dual purpose (lethal/non-lethal) weapons; and, sprays and foams which inhibit movement. The database will keep up to date on these developments and future reports will highlight new issues and debates surrounding them. With these rapid technological advances come a series of associated dangers and concerns including: the ethics of use; implications for weapons control and disarmament treaties; military doctrine; public accountability and guidelines; dangers of misuse and proliferation; and, research and development strategies. Using the database, and drawing from military and non-military sources, this report will select the main current issues and debates within the non-lethal community. Bearing in mind that many operations undertaken by military forces are now more akin to policing actions (such as peace support operations) there are lessons to be learnt by military units from civil police experience. There still remains a tension between perceived benign and malign intent both in NLW operational use and non-lethal research and development.

This third report from the Bradford NLW Project aims to give the reader a brief update of developments and debates within the NLWs field over the last few months. We hope that it will be of interest not only to NLW `specialists', but also to those with a general interest in this area. Interest in non-lethal weapons, which have been defined as being `explicitly designed and primarily employed to incapacitate personnel or material while minimising fatalities, permanent injury to personnel, and undesired damage to property and the environment', has increased dramatically over the last five years as a result of non-lethal technology progress and increasing calls from military forces (especially those engaged in peacekeeping) and civil police for more sophisticated non-lethal responses to violent incidents¿whilst there are evident advantages linked with non-lethal weapons, there are also key areas of concern associated with the development and deployment of such weapons. These include threats to existing weapons control treaties and conventions, their use in human rights violations (such as torture), harmful biomedical effects, and what some predict as a dangerous potential for use in social manipulation and social punishment within the context of a technology of political control.

The second report from the Project-Group ESRF-Beamline of the Forschungszentrum Rossendorf covers the period from July 1999 until December 2000. The ROssendorf BeamLine (ROBL) at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France performed quite well during this time. In the beamtime used by the FZR and collaborating institutes 44 scheduled experiments were performed, while in the ESRF scheduled beamtime 12 experiments. Additionally, a distinct amount of beamtime was devoted to in-house research of the FZR and methodical experiments. Since February 2000 ROBL is part of the European Commission's programme "Access to Research Infrastructure" which supports user groups from member and associated states of the EU during experiments at ROBL. In the year 2000 ROBL hosted 6 groups for experiments. The report is organised in three main parts. The first part contains extended contributions on results obtained at ROBL. The second part gives an overview about the scheduled experiments, publications, guests having visited ROBL with support of the EC, and some other information. Finally, the third part collects the experimental reports of the user groups received.

EMBA Project Report
At the request of the Commander, Submarine Forces Atlantic (CSL) Director of Operations (N3), Hero Solutions Group undertook a study of the manning of the 1120 LTs detailed to CSL, to determine how they could be most effectively utilized. For a variety of reason, CSL is experiencing a shortfall in manning of Submarine Watch Officers (SWOs), making it difficult to support a round-the-clock watch rotation while maintaining safety and effectiveness of the SWO. Specifically, we determined the optimum manning rotation to meet the requirement that the watch floor be fully manned, while performing the necessary functions of the eight _day-staff_ 1120 LT billets. To determine this optimum rotation, we interviewed several personnel throughout the staff, including the LTs, their supervisors and the department directors (N-heads). We simulated various possible rotations to determine their effects on SWO manning and day-staff coverage. We also researched safety guidelines regarding fatigue and shift work safety from various sources to determine an acceptable work load. These are our recommendations: _ All 1120 LTs should report to N3 and remain on the SWO watch bill for an eight month period. _ All 1120 LTs not billets as a SWO will transfer to the next available day-staff billet once their initial eight month SWO rotation is complete. _ LTs billets as a SWO will be assigned to the N34 day-staff billet in the last several months of their tours. _ All 1120 LTs who are in a staff billet will stand weekday, day SWO proficiency watches twice per month. _ All 1120 LTs are required to attend mandatory SWO classroom training once per week. _ The unfunded N321A billet will no longer be manned by 1120 LTs. By implementing these recommendations, the CSL staff will be able to man the watch bill at a level such that all 1120 LT have a manageable workload that does not contribute to excess fatigue or diminish job effectiveness. Also, all LTs will gain valuable experience as a watchstander.

Abstract:

Delay of health care negatively impacts patient satisfaction and contributes to an inefficient healthcare system by increasing the use of the emergency room for non-urgent conditions. Policymakers argue that long waits will result in delays in diagnosis and treatment, and these delays negatively affect individual health.

California is a diverse state and comprises of people from various ethnic backgrounds. Consequently, there are cultural, linguistic and various other underlying reasons which contribute towards the delay in health care.

Apart from this, California has a wide range of people, which varies in socioeconomic status and there is a large segment which delays health care due to lack of health insurance. This study focuses on analyzing the reasons behind the delay in health care among California residents and proposes remedies which can help mitigate the problem.

A Joint Effort by The John F. Long Foundation and The University of Arizona / March 1989 / Submitted To: John F. Long Foundation, Inc.
Introduction: The nanofilter is a relatively new water treatment option that has been commercially available since 1986. The name nanofilter is used here as a generic name rather than a specific product name. There are at least five companies that make filter elements that can be classified as nanofilters (City of Ft. Myers, 1987). The nanofilter operates on a molecular scale and is related to reverse osmosis. Simply stated, this process treats water by forcing it through a porous membrane. The water molecules are able to pass through the membrane, as well as some of the smaller organic and inorganic molecules in the water. The larger organic and inorganic molecules are removed. The nanofilter will remove most of the dissolved solids (salinity) and hardness plus a large percentage of the dissolved organic matter including trihalomethanes (THM) precursors and essentially all of the bacteria and viruses. THM and TOX precursors are naturally occurring organics (humic and fluvic acids) that will produce THMs and organic halogens (TOX) (both are suspected carcinogens) when disinfectants such as chlorine or chloramines are added to the water. Nanofiltration has a built in safety feature in that the membrane compresses slightly as it ages which produces even better quality of water over time. In contrast activated charcoal has to be continously monitored to make sure its absorption capacity has not been used up, the quality of water deteriates over time. Nanofiltration, sometimes called membrane softening, is designed to be used for water containing 300-1200 ppm salinity. Muncipal effluent in Arizona generally has 600 to 1200 ppm salinity so this process should work well. It is particularly effective in removing dissolved organics, virus, bacteria and parasitic protozoans. The nanofilter is being used in several Florida locations. The City of Fort Myers in Florida is presently constructing the largest of these facilities, a 20 million gallon per day plant (City of Ft Myers, 1987).

Non-lethal weapons (NLWs) are explicitly designed and primarily employed to incapacitate personnel or material whilst minimising collateral damage to property and the environment. Existing NLWs include rubber and plastic bullets, entangling nets, chemical sprays such as OC and CS gas, and electrical stunning devices such as the `Taser¿ gun. New NLWs are on the way, which will include acoustic and microwave weapons, non-lethal landmines, malodorants, and sophisticated weapons developed through rapid advances in neuroscience and the genomics revolution. Most analysts would agree that there is a `legitimate¿ role for non-lethal weapons, both for civil and military applications. However there is considerable disagreement as to the operational effectiveness of NLWs, and the threat such weapons pose to arms conventions and international law. As usual, a balance has to be achieved where the benign advantages of developing and deploying non-lethal weapons are not outweighed by their more malign effects. In particular, emerging non-lethal technologies offer an increasing opportunity for the suppression of civil dissent and control of populations ¿ these are sometimes referred to as the `technologies of political control¿. There is a continuing need for sustained and informed commentary to such developments which highlights the impact and threats that these technologies pose to civil liberties and human rights. Because the last BNLWP Report was produced in August 2001, this edition is somewhat longer than usual so that key developments since then can be highlighted and summarised. Future BNLWRP reports will be published three times a year, and we welcome material to be considered for inclusion.

Two recent detailed reports, by the U.K Northern Ireland Office (NIO) - January 2004 1 and the U.S. Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) - February 2004 2, provide further insights into current policy and technology developments in the U.K. and U.S. The NIO report is the 4th and final report of a U.K wide Steering Group set up by the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland in Summer 2000, with the objective: To establish whether a less potentially lethal alternative to baton rounds is available; and to review the public order equipment which is presently available, or could be developed, in order to expand the range of tactical options available to operational commanders. 3 In her foreword to the report Jane Kennedy, Minister of State for Northern Ireland notes that: Despite a protracted and international search for a commercially available product, we have been unable to find anything that meets the criteria of an acceptable, potentially less lethal alternative to the baton round currently in service which provides an effective capability that does not expose officers and the public to greater risk in violent public disorder.4 The NIO Report has sections looking at the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL) programme on the development of less lethal technologies (particularly the Attenuating Energy Projectile and the Discriminating Irritant Projectile); commercial off the shelf product evaluations and update (12 Gauge Sock Round Assessment); Water Cannon; the U.K. use of less lethal technologies (with a focus on L21A1 baton rounds, CS sprays and the Taser). The report also contains a section entitled `The Management of Conflict¿ which discusses the dynamics of crowd behaviour. For a critical response to the NIO report see that from Dr. Brian Rappert.5 The CFR report provides a strong endorsement for non-lethal weapons. A key finding states: Wider integration of nonlethal weapons into the U.S. Army and Marine Corps could have reduced damage, saved lives, and helped to limit the widespread looting and sabotage that occurred after the cessation of major conflict in Iraq. Incorporating NLW capabilities into the equipment, training and doctrine of the armed services could substantially improve U.S. effectiveness in conflict, post-conflict, and homeland defense. 6 Interestingly, in describing the nonlethal capability sets (NLCS) which have been deployed in Kosovo and Iraq, and which help to provide a continuum of force between ¿don¿t shoot¿ and ¿shoot¿ 7, the CFR seems to distinguish between NLWs (rubber balls [grenades and shotgun munitions], bean bags, riot shields, Tasers, net entanglers, and caltrops), and equipment such as flash-bang grenades, laser dazzlers, and bullhorns of which it states ¿It is important to note that these are not weapons but non-lethal capabilities¿ 8 The CFR recommends expanded deployment of NLWs in the armed services, longer ranges for non-lethal payloads using precision delivery and fusing systems, and further development of millimetre-wave area-denial system (HPM weapons such as VMADS) and the advanced tactical laser (ATL). The report also argues for the need to have a bigger Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate (JNLWD) or a new Non-lethal Joint Program Office (NLJPO) and for Bradford Non-Lethal Weapons Research Project (BNLWRP) ¿ Research Report 5 (May 2004) 2 closer links with the Joint Forces Command (JFCOM). In the opinion of the authors the JNLWD should also have more access into classified programmes throughout all branches of the armed services so as not to duplicate non-lethal development initiatives. To stimulate incorporation of NLWs throughout the U.S. Armed Services the CFR advocates two approaches: (1) top-down planning in the Defense department and (2) creation of demand for these [NLWs] weapons from the field as personnel gain experience with prototype equipment. 9 They argue there is a need for the top-level military and civilian leadership to be educated about NLW capabilities, not only for warfighting and peacekeeping, but also in `homeland defence in isolating a hot zone in the aftermath of a biological attack' 10. We will be referring again to both the NIO and CFR publications in other sections of this report.

New non-lethal technologies (weapons and delivery systems) continue to make the news, both for their civil and military applications. Technologies which were considered to be in the realm of science fiction a few years ago, are now beginning to undergo field trials or, in some cases, are being deployed with police and soldiers on active service. As this, and our previous reports have highlighted, the development of acoustic weapons (Long Range Acoustic Device) and microwave weapons (Active Denial System) have proceeded rapidly as have advances in robotic, unmanned vehicles for the delivery of both lethal and non-lethal weapons. We repeat our concern that there is a danger of these new non-lethal technologies being `rushed¿ into service (1) without thorough testing for harmful health effects, (2) without a deeper consideration of civil and human rights, (3) without full discussion of their impact on arms control treaties and conventions, and (4) without further study of their social and cultural impact. Since many such weapons will have a rheostatic capacity along the non-lethal to lethal continuum, it is important that weapons developers and manufacturers, and those charged with the responsibility of using them, are held clearly accountable and have transparent rules of engagement. Of particular concern are a new generation of biological and chemical weapons. With respect to the health impact, NATO has a panel working on NLW human effects, the Human Factors and Medicine (HFM) Panel 073, which is due to report later this year (2004) on the Human Effects of Non-Lethal Technologies.1

The length of this Bradford Non-Lethal Weapons Research Project Report No.7 again reflects the interest related to non-lethal weapons from academics, research institutes, policy makers, the police and the military. A number of reports, particularly concerning the Taser electro-shock weapon, have been published from these sectors since our last BNLWRP Report No.6 in October 2004. Some, such as the Amnesty International (U.S. and Canada) have again raised, and stressed, the concerns about the safety of the weapon and the number of deaths associated with its use. Others, such as the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Human Effects Center of Excellence (HECOE), Human Effectiveness and Risk Characterization of the Electromuscular Incapacitation Device ¿ A Limited Analysis of the TASER. (March 2005) concluded that the Taser was relatively safe, but that further research was needed into potential bio-effects, and for continual development into a safer weapon. Reaction to these reports was mixed. Some US legislators called for limitations on the use of Tasers, more accountability, and the detailed recording of incidents in which they were used.1 Others called for a ban on their use until more testing was carried out regarding their potentially harmful effects. A number of US police forces stopped the use of Taser, slowed down the deployment and ordering of the weapons, reviewed their rules of engagement and reporting, and revisited their operational guidelines. The International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) published the Electro- Muscular Disruption Technology (EMDT). A Nine-Step Strategy For Effective Deployment. (April 2005) as a response to these growing concerns. Certain elements of the media, especially The Arizona Republic2 and others, took a hostile view of what they considered the scandal of the number of deaths and associated serious injuries caused by the Taser. Taser International challenged allegations that their weapon was directly responsible for these deaths and quoted reports, such as the Madison Police Department report (February 2005), the study by McDaniel, W & Stratbucker, R & Nerheim, M & Brewer, J. Cardiac Safety of Neuromuscular Incapacitating Defensive Devices (January 2005), and the U.K. DOMILL Statement (March 2005) to support their view. The controversy continues. Other than Tasers, there are still few reports of the newer non-lethal technologies actually being deployed in operations. The exception to this is the Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD), which is now in widespread use in Iraq. Little additional information has appeared regarding the `active denial¿ weapon we have described in previous reports.

In the UK at present Taser electrical stun weapons can only be used by trained firearms officers in situations where the use of firearms is also authorised. But the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) is asking for these `non-lethal¿ weapons to be made more widely available to other police officers. If this is agreed there will be significant implications for the use of force by police in the UK. In July 2005 the Home Office Minister, Hazel Blears, had stated that the Taser was a dangerous weapon and not appropriate for wider use. The rationale behind the deployment of `non-lethal¿ or `less-lethal¿ weapons, such as the Taser, is to provide police officers with an alternative to lethal force for dangerous and lifethreatening situations they face. Wider availability of such weapons should, it is argued, further limit the need to resort to lethal firearms and thereby reduce incidence of serious injury and death. Over the past few months senior police officers have issued public statements that the Taser weapon should be made available to all officers on the beat. They argue that because police are facing dangerous individuals on an everyday basis, the Taser is required to protect their officers and deal with violent offenders without having to call in a firearms unit in certain situations. A crucial point about this proposal is that it would represent a scaling up in the `visible¿ arming of police officers in the UK. It is claimed by opponents that such an extended use of Taser would actually result in an increase in the level of force used by police in the UK, a concern also echoed by the Independent Police Complaints Committee (IPCC) in the minute of their 27 April 2005 `Casework and Investigations Committee¿ meeting.
