Blockchain is a decentralized digital ledger consisting of blocks that are chained together via cryptographic hash functions. A new study by TSYS School professor Yesem Kurt Peker and colleagues from TOBB University in Turkey proposes a blockchain-based architecture that uses smart contracts and homomorphic encryption to allow statistical computations on confidential data by third parties. As they explain in the study, which appears in the Journal of Millimeterwave Communication, Optimization and Modelling, the use of blockchain provides the much-desired security properties of integrity and fault tolerance while homomorphic encryption preserves the privacy of the data. Results discussed by the researchers show that a blockchain-based data sharing mechanism with homomorphic calculations via a smart contract is feasible and provides improvements in protecting the data from unauthorized users. "Even though our work focused on linear regression, the architecture can be used for other statistical analysis and machine learning algorithms," Peker explained.
The Turner College's new marketing intern Lizzy Grant , a senior marketing major from Newnan who previously attended Gordon State College, where she played varsity soccer, and is scheduled to graduate from the Turner College in May of 2024, has hit the ground running in her new position. She recently played a large role in the creation of a video tour of the Synovus Center, the main campus home of the Turner College. The video helps to guide new students on where to go in the building and who they can talk to if they help. The video showcases the Student Services Center, the main lobby, and more. The video is played as part of a loop on video screens placed throughout the Synovus Center. Lizzy's list of activities at CSU is impressive. She is the Treasurer of the Turner College's Marketing Club, the President of Marketing for the Turner College's chapter of the Financial Management Association, and an Ambassador for the Turner College. She is also the Treasurer of her s
