    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[In this work, we study how to optimally manage the freshness of information updates sent from a source node to a destination via a channel. A proper metric for data freshness at the destination is the age-of-information, or simply age, which is defined as how old the freshest received update is since the moment that this update was generated at the source node (e.g., a sensor). A reasonable update policy is the zero-wait policy, i.e., the source node submits a fresh update once the previous update is delivered and the channel becomes free, which achieves the maximum throughput and the minimum delay. Surprisingly, this zero-wait policy does not always minimize the age. This counter-intuitive phenomenon motivates us to study how to optimally control information updates to keep the data fresh and to understand when the zero-wait policy is optimal. We introduce a general age penalty function to characterize the level of dissatisfaction on data staleness and formulate the average age penalty minimization problem as a constrained semi-Markov decision problem (SMDP) with an uncountable state space. We develop efficient algorithms to find the optimal update policy among all causal policies, and establish sufficient and necessary conditions for the optimality of the zero-wait policy. Our investigation shows that the zero-wait policy is far from the optimum if (i) the age penalty function grows quickly with respect to the age, (ii) the packet transmission times over the channel are positively correlated over time, or (iii) the packet transmission times are highly random (e.g., following a heavy-tail distribution).

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Cooperative communication plays a central role in theories of human cognition, language, development, and culture, and is increasingly relevant in human-algorithm and robot interaction. Existing models are algorithmic in nature and do not shed light on the statistical problem solved in cooperation or on constraints imposed by violations of common ground. We present a mathematical theory of cooperative communication that unifies three broad classes of algorithmic models as approximations of Optimal Transport (OT). We derive a statistical interpretation for the problem approximated by existing models in terms of entropy minimization, or likelihood maximizing, plans. We show that some models are provably robust to violations of common ground, even supporting online, approximate recovery from discovered violations, and derive conditions under which other models are provably not robust. We do so using gradient-based methods which introduce novel algorithmic-level perspectives on cooperative communication. Our mathematical approach complements and extends empirical research, providing strong theoretical tools derivation of a priori constraints on models and implications for cooperative communication in theory and practice.

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Reviews of malpractice claims have a morbid attraction that is similar to gazing at crash scenes. Both provide the observer with a vicarious, cathartic experience. These stories of tragedy, defeat, and loss seem almost as popular in general medicine and emergency medicine as tragedy was in Sophocles’s Athens. The reasons for their popularity are the same now as they were then. They support a perception of control that has important psychological, social, and political benefits by making a complex, chaotic, and irreducibly uncertain world appear to be simpler and more linear. Closed-claim reviews typically find fault with the thinking or behavior of individual physicians: they failed to order the right test, failed to do a “complete” physical examination, and so on. These assessments conveniently skirt the identification of other causes that have higher stakes. For example, finding flaws in the design of equipment or processes would lead to expensive and embarrassing shutdowns or retooling. Finding management failures would threaten those in charge. But finding that 1 or more workers had a “cognitive breakdown” preserves the status quo and provides a convenient, default conclusion when no other explanation is immediately apparent (or desired). It also allows follow-up actions to be limited to “. . . soporific injunctions about better training.” In this issue of Annals, Kachalia et al present a closed claim review of ED cases in which problems in diagnosis were thought to play a role in the adverse outcomes. Diagnostic failures have not received much attention in discussions of patient safety. This is strange, considering that they are said to be the second most common cause of adverse events and malpractice claims. Strange but understandable, though, because understanding diagnosis-related failures is difficult and progress in this area has been slow. Two reasons it has been slow are reliance on impoverished problem worlds and unrealistic models of human performance, and ignorance of the effects of hindsight bias. LESS

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[We provide an in-depth study of the knowledge-theoretic aspects of communication in so-called gossip protocols. Pairs of agents communicate by means of calls in order to spread information---so-called secrets---within the group. Depending on the nature of such calls knowledge spreads in different ways within the group. Systematizing existing literature, we identify 18 different types of communication, and model their epistemic effects through corresponding indistinguishability relations. We then provide a classification of these relations and show its usefulness for an epistemic analysis in presence of different communication types. Finally, we explain how to formalise the assumption that the agents have common knowledge of a distributed epistemic gossip protocol.

    <title>[1502.01188] What Can Wireless Cellular Technologies Do about the Upcoming Smart Metering Traffic?</title>
    <dc:date>2015-11-01T10:47:54+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>http://arxiv.org/abs/1502.01188</link>
    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The introduction of smart electricity meters with cellular radio interface puts an additional load on the wireless cellular networks. Currently, these meters are designed for low duty cycle billing and occasional system check, which generates a low-rate sporadic traffic. As the number of distributed energy resources increases, the household power will become more variable and thus unpredictable from the viewpoint of the Distribution System Operator (DSO). It is therefore expected, in the near future, to have an increased number of Wide Area Measurement System (WAMS) devices with Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU)-like capabilities in the distribution grid, thus allowing the utilities to monitor the low voltage grid quality while providing information required for tighter grid control. From a communication standpoint, the traffic profile will change drastically towards higher data volumes and higher rates per device. In this paper, we characterize the current traffic generated by smart electricity meters and supplement it with the potential traffic requirements brought by introducing enhanced Smart Meters, i.e., meters with PMU-like capabilities. Our study shows how GSM/GPRS and LTE cellular system performance behaves with the current and next generation smart meters traffic, where it is clearly seen that the PMU data will seriously challenge these wireless systems. We conclude by highlighting the possible solutions for upgrading the cellular standards, in order to cope with the upcoming smart metering traffic.

    <dc:date>2015-09-18T22:22:06+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>http://arxiv.org/abs/1502.01602</link>
    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Research on information diffusion generally assumes complete knowledge of the underlying network. However, in the presence of factors such as increasing privacy awareness, restrictions on application programming interfaces (APIs) and sampling strategies, this assumption rarely holds in the real world which in turn leads to an underestimation of the size of information cascades. In this work we study the effect of hidden network structure on information diffusion processes. We characterise information cascades through activation paths traversing visible and hidden parts of the network. We quantify diffusion estimation error while varying the amount of hidden structure in five empirical and synthetic network datasets and demonstrate the effect of topological properties on this error. Finally, we suggest practical recommendations for practitioners and propose a model to predict the cascade size with minimal information regarding the underlying network.

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The beep model is a very weak communications model in which devices in a network can communicate only via beeps and silence. As a result of its weak assumptions, it has a very broad applicability to many different implementations of communications networks. This comes at the cost of a restrictive environment for algorithm design. 
Despite being only recently introduced, the beep model has received considerable attention, in part due to its relationship with other communication models such as that of ad-hoc radio networks. However, there has been no definitive published result for several fundamental tasks in the model. We aim to rectify this with our paper. 
We present algorithms for the tasks of broadcast, multi-broadcast and gossiping, and also, as intermediary results, means of diameter estimation and depth-first search. Our O(D+m)-time algorithm for broadcasting an m-length message is a simple formalization of a concept known as beep waves, and is asymptotically optimal. We give an algorithms taking several different approaches towards k-multi-broadcast, yielding an overall running time of O(DlogL+M+min(kDlogLlogD,kM,kD+k2logL)). This, in general, takes more time than k single broadcasts because we must agree on an order in which to perform them, so as to avoid interference. Finally, we present an O(nlogL+M)-time gossiping algorithm. This algorithm is optimal in all cases where messages are large enough to contain node labels. In these running-time expressions, D represents network diameter, L represents range of node labels, and M is the total sum of message lengths (in bits).

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The three-node multiterminal lossy source coding problem is investigated. We derive an inner bound to the general rate-distortion region of this problem which is a natural extension of the seminal work by Kaspi'85 on the interactive two-terminal source coding problem. It is shown that this (rather involved) inner bound contains several rate-distortion regions of some relevant source coding settings. In this way, besides the non-trivial extension of the interactive two terminal problem, our results can be seen as a generalization and hence unification of several previous works in the field. Specializing to particular cases we obtain novel rate-distortion regions for several lossy source coding problems. We finish by describing some of the open problems and challenges. However, the general three-node multiterminal lossy source coding problem seems to offer a formidable mathematical complexity.

For example : “Your brain-IQ correlation is r=0.40, so if you square it, that only amounts to a tiny 16% (r²=0.40*0.40=0.16) of variance explained which is not impressive”. Or something in this vein. R² use and abuse caused enough damage. It is more than time to put an end to this utter fallacy.

The technique is based upon the use of two types of notched boxplots (the usual one, and one which is tuned for the skewness of the data), the violin plot, the histogram and a nonparametric estimate of the density. The data is assumed to lie on the same line, so the plots are compatible. We show that a good deal of information can be extracted from the inspection of this tool; in particular, we apply the technique to analyze data from synthetic aperture radar images. We provide the implementation in R.

    <dc:date>2014-11-09T12:53:09+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>http://arxiv.org/abs/1408.4812</link>
    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Probabilistic forecasts are becoming more and more available. How should they be used and communicated? What are the obstacles to their use in practice? I review experience with five problems where probabilistic forecasting played an important role. This leads me to identify five types of potential users: Low Stakes Users, who don't need probabilistic forecasts; General Assessors, who need an overall idea of the uncertainty in the forecast; Change Assessors, who need to know if a change is out of line with expectatations; Risk Avoiders, who wish to limit the risk of an adverse outcome; and Decision Theorists, who quantify their loss function and perform the decision-theoretic calculations. This suggests that it is important to interact with users and to consider their goals. The cognitive research tells us that calibration is important for trust in probability forecasts, and that it is important to match the verbal expression with the task. The cognitive load should be minimized, reducing the probabilistic forecast to a single percentile if appropriate. Probabilities of adverse events and percentiles of the predictive distribution of quantities of interest seem often to be the best way to summarize probabilistic forecasts. Formal decision theory has an important role, but in a limited range of applications.

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[In molecular communication, information is conveyed through chemical messages. With much advancement in the field of nanotechnology, bioengineering and synthetic biology over the past decade, micro- and nano-scales devices are becoming a reality. Yet the problem of engineering a reliable communication system between tiny devices is still an open problem. At the same time, despite the prevalence of radio communication, there are still areas where traditional electromagnetic waves find it difficult or expensive to reach. Points of interest in industry, cities, medical, and military applications often lie in embedded and entrenched areas, accessible only by ventricles at scales too small for conventional radio- and micro-waves, or they are located in such a way that directional high frequency systems are ineffective. Molecular communication is a biologically inspired communication scheme that could be employed for solving these problems. Although biologists have studied molecular communication, it is poorly understood from a telecommunication perspective. In this paper, we highlight the recent advancements in the field of molecular communication engineering.

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[We present an integer programming framework to build accurate and interpretable discrete linear classification models. Unlike existing approaches, our framework is designed to provide practitioners with the control and flexibility they need to tailor accurate and interpretable models for a domain of choice. To this end, our framework can produce models that are fully optimized for accuracy, by minimizing the 0--1 classification loss, and that address multiple aspects of interpretability, by incorporating a range of discrete constraints and penalty functions. We use our framework to produce models that are difficult to create with existing methods, such as scoring systems and M-of-N rule tables. In addition, we propose specially designed optimization methods to improve the scalability of our framework through decomposition and data reduction. We show that discrete linear classifiers can attain the training accuracy of any other linear classifier, and provide an Occam's Razor type argument as to why the use of small discrete coefficients can provide better generalization. We demonstrate the performance and flexibility of our framework through numerical experiments and a case study in which we construct a highly tailored clinical tool for sleep apnea diagnosis.

Compared with existing methods, our approach is naturally parallelizable and allows for incorporating different cost functionals with only minor adjustments. We apply our method to classical challenging instances and observe that its computational requirements scale well with p for several cost functionals. We also show that a specialization of our algorithm can be used for {\em local} motion planning by solving the problem of joint optimization in velocity space.

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[In a previous essay, I argued that European schools of thought on memory and memorization were critical in enabling widespread adoption of the scientific method. Here, as a way of understanding the peculiar relationship the memory arts had to 17th century philosophy and intellectual culture, I propose a historical thought experiment, and examine whether these developments might have occurred several thousand years earlier when the adoption of written language accelerated. I suggest that strong cultural norms discouraging the use of written language may have precipitated a scientific revolution at a much earlier stage in human history. I close by arguing for the value of counter-factual scientific histories in attempting to separate scientific principles from the particular historical circumstances in which they arose.

These electronic traces indicate that the interactions occur in temporal bursts. Here, we study the inter-call durations of the 100,000 most-active cellphone users of a Chinese mobile phone operator. We confirm that the inter-call durations follow a power-law distribution with an exponential cutoff at the population level but find differences when focusing on individual users. We apply statistical tests at the individual level and find that the inter-call durations follow a power-law distribution for only 3460 individuals (3.46%). The inter-call durations for the majority (73.34%) follow a Weibull distribution. We quantify individual users using three measures: out-degree, percentage of outgoing calls, and communication diversity. We find that the cellphone users with a power-law duration distribution fall into three anomalous clusters: robot-based callers, telecom frauds, and telephone sales. This information is of interest to both academics and practitioners, mobile telecom operator in particular. In contrast, the individual users with a Weibull duration distribution form the fourth cluster of ordinary cellphone users. We also discover more information about the calling patterns of these four clusters, e.g., the probability that a user will call the $c_r$-th most contact and the probability distribution of burst sizes. Our findings may enable a more detailed analysis of the huge body of data contained in the logs of massive users.]]></description>

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[I present a critique of the methods used in a typical paper. This leads to three broad conclusions about the conventional use of statistical methods. First, results are often reported in an unnecessarily obscure manner. Second, the null hypothesis testing paradigm is deeply flawed: estimating the size of effects and citing confidence intervals or levels is usually better. Third, there are several issues, independent of the particular statistical concepts employed, which limit the value of any statistical approach: e.g. difficulties of generalizing to different contexts, and the weakness of some research in terms of the size of the effects found. The first two of these are easily remedied: I illustrate some of the possibilities by re-analyzing the data from the case study article. The third means that in some contexts a statistical approach may not be worthwhile. My case study is a management paper, but similar problems arise in other social sciences. Keywords: Confidence, Hypothesis testing, Null hypothesis significance tests, Philosophy of statistics, Statistical methods, User-friendliness.]]></description>

Distributed coordination of multiple vehicles, including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs), has been a very active research subject studied extensively by the systems and control community. The recent results in this area are categorized into several directions, such as consensus, formation control, optimization, distributed task assignment, and estimation. After the review, a short discussion section is included to summarize the existing research and to propose several promising research directions along with some open problems that are deemed important therefore deserving further investigations."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["It is universal to see people obtain knowledge on micro-blog services by asking others decision making questions. In this paper, we study the Jury Selection Problem(JSP) by utilizing crowdsourcing for decision making tasks on micro-blog services. Specifically, the problem is to enroll a subset of crowd under a limited budget, whose aggregated wisdom via Majority Voting scheme has the lowest probability of drawing a wrong answer(Jury Error Rate-JER). Due to various individual error-rates of the crowd, the calculation of JER is non-trivial. Firstly, we explicitly state that JER is the probability when the number of wrong jurors is larger than half of the size of a jury. To avoid the exponentially increasing calculation of JER, we propose two efficient algorithms and an effective bounding technique. Furthermore, we study the Jury Selection Problem on two crowdsourcing models, one is for altruistic users(AltrM) and the other is for incentive-requiring users(PayM) who require extra payment when enrolled into a task. For the AltrM model, we prove the monotonicity of JER on individual error rate and propose an efficient exact algorithm for JSP. For the PayM model, we prove the NP-hardness of JSP on PayM and propose an efficient greedy-based heuristic algorithm. Finally, we conduct a series of experiments to investigate the traits of JSP, and validate the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed algorithms on both synthetic and real micro-blog data."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Network coding is studied when an adversary controls a subset of nodes in the network of limited quantity but unknown location. This problem is shown to be more difficult than when the adversary controls a given number of edges in the network, in that linear codes are insufficient. To solve the node problem, the class of Polytope Codes is introduced. Polytope Codes are constant composition codes operating over bounded polytopes in integer vector fields. The polytope structure creates additional complexity, but it induces properties on marginal distributions of code vectors so that validities of codewords can be checked by internal nodes of the network. It is shown that Polytope Codes achieve a cut-set bound for a class of planar networks. It is also shown that this cut-set bound is not always tight, and a tighter bound is given for an example network."]]></description>

Messages are sent by media and by agents themselves. Messages from media shape the public opinion. They are unbiased, i.e. positive and negative opinions on a given issue appear with equal frequencies. In our previous work, the only criterion to receive a message by an agent is if the distance between this message and the ones received earlier does not exceed the given value of the tolerance parameter. Here we introduce a possibility to address a message to a given neighbour. We show that this option reduces the unanimity effect, what improves the collective performance.

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Distributed data aggregation has been an active field of research in the last decade, and a huge diverse amount of techniques can be found in the literature. For this reasons, this survey intends to be an important time saving instrument, for those that desire to get a quick and comprehensive overview of the state of the art on distributed data aggregation. Moreover, by carefully highlighting the strength and limitations of the more pertinent approaches, this study can provide a useful assistance to help readers choose which technique to apply in specific settings.

Currently, there is no ideal general solution to the distributed computation of an aggregation function, all existing techniques have its pitfalls (some more than others). Therefore, more research in this field will be expected in the next few years. In particular, due to the added value of computing complex aggregates, new algorithms might arise to estimate the statistical distribution of values, as the few existing approaches exhibit some limitations in terms of accuracy and resource consumption. Additional research efforts should be made to improve the support to churn, message loss, and continuous estimation of mutable input values."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[We get mistaken for graduate students: I had to field questions along the lines of “so who do you work with?” for at least 10 years after Ph.D. We get interrupted, talked over or ignored in conversation. When we disagree with our male colleagues, especially on administrative matters, we’re presumed to be mistaken until proved otherwise. In collaborations, we’re assumed to be the lesser participants far more often than we’re assumed to be the leaders. In situations that require a compromise, the “reasonable” expectation is for us to meet the other party about 4/5 of the way, if not farther.

    <dc:date>2010-08-20T12:22:54+00:00</dc:date>
    <link>http://arxiv.org/abs/1008.0938</link>
    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Zipf's law seems to be ubiquitous in human languages and appears to be a universal property of complex communicating systems. Following an early proposal made by Zipf concerning the presence of a tension between the efforts of speaker and hearer in a communication system, we introduce evolution by means of a variational approach to the problem based on Kullback's Minimum Discrimination of Information Principle. Using a formalism fully embedded in the framework of information theory, we demonstrate that Zipf's law is the only expected outcome of an evolving, communicative system under a rigorous definition of the communicative tension described by Zipf."

    <link>http://arxiv.org/abs/1006.3128</link>
    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["Recovery of the sparsity pattern (or support) of a sparse vector from a small number of noisy linear samples is a common problem that arises in signal processing and statistics. In the high dimensional setting, it is known that recovery with a vanishing fraction of errors is impossible if the sampling rate and per-sample signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are finite constants independent of the length of the vector. In this paper, it is shown that recovery with an arbitrarily small but constant fraction of errors is, however, possible, and that in some cases a computationally simple thresholding estimator is near-optimal.…"

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["To our knowledge, the two most prominent aspects of our setting, the presence of asymmetric information and the stationarity requirement (stemming from unknown start times) have not been considered in the literature. For example, the Anderson-Weber strategy for the telephone problem is not stationary — it has a period of n − 1. It would be interesting to see what can be said about the optimal stationary strategies for this and other rendezvous problems. The interested reader is referred to [2,3] and the references therein for more information on rendezvous search games."

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["So it probably would not take much for politicians to be persuaded that the press is essential to democracy, and that its survival ... depends on government support. Advertising revenue would be replaced by government subsidies, raising predictable questions about the impact on content.
The alternative is to focus on what communication technology cannot do: create rather than transmit a good story or a good policy. There will always be a market for quality. The disruption caused by emerging communications technologies consists in the fact that the best pens may not be on the staffs of newspapers, and that policies need not be formulated only in the corridors of government."

And now that authority is eroding. I will try to explain why.
It’s easily the most useful diagram I’ve found for understanding the practice of journalism in the United States, and the hidden politics of that practice. You can draw it by hand right now. Take a sheet of paper and make a big circle in the middle. In the center of that circle draw a smaller one to create a doughnut shape. Label the doughnut hole “sphere of consensus.” Call the middle region “sphere of legitimate debate,” and the outer region “sphere of deviance.”"

But it will take more than technical advances to provoke scientists into taking full advantage of the web. We need pressure, and perhaps compulsion, from journals and funders to raise publishing standards to the new level made possible by such tools. Google Wave may not be, indeed is probably not, the whole answer. But it points the way to tools that build records and reproducibility into every step. And that has to be good for science."

To do this, we need to uncouple our idea of progress from speed, separate the idea of speed from effi ciency, pause and step back enough to realize that efficiency may be good for business and governments but does not always lead to mindfulness and sustainable, rewarding relationships. We are here for a short time on this planet, and reacting to demands on our time by simply speeding up has canceled out many of the benefits of the Internet, which is one of the most fabulous technological inventions ever conceived. We are connected, yes, but we were before, only by gossamer threads that worked more slowly. Slow communication will preserve these threads and our ability to sensibly choose to use faster modes when necessary…."

I'm especially interested in learning that takes place when people work together. I aim to contribute new ways of thinking about distributed work, learning in collaboration, and the roles of social computing in both. "

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["The art of conversation, with its counterpart the dialogue as a literary form for presenting ideas, has also declined since the days of Galileo, while the art of advertising has advanced. Advertising is easily recognized as the literary form that most completely responds to the technique of the printing press, because it demands, above all else, a numerous and receptive "public" of readers. A great number of improvements in the graphic arts have been adaptations to the needs of advertisers. Yet, in its development of "direct mail" methods and circular letters, advertising seems to be more emancipated than literature from the printing press. One of the most curious recent developments in the graphic arts is the effort of the advertisers to make printed matter look like typescript, while the authors of books that are not in sufficient demand to warrant publication are seeking a typescript that will look like print."

The activities are simple operations within your analysis. All these operations have a certain number of inputs and outputs.  In the case of fetching a DNA sequence, an input may be an identifier of the sequence, whilst the output is a string representing the nucleotide sequence represented by this identifier.
The triggering of activities by other activities are where an operation feeds data into a subsequent operation. For example, the ‘fetch sequence’ operation may feed its output (the string containing sequence ‘ACTG’) into a ‘transcribe’ operation. This would subsequently change the DNA sequence into an RNA sequence. We would then have a simple workflow with one operation, and a link, which looks something like the following:..."

    <dc:creator>Vaguery</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["The Mechanics’ Institute sprang up in 19th century England for the ostensible purpose of imparting upon the working class mechanic knowledge of the sciences, literature, and arts. In actuality, a myriad of purposes shrouded the creation of these institutes, which were ultimately appropriated by the middle class when it became apparent that the working class was not as receptive as had been anticipated. ... As the middle class began to move in, the working class retreated to the Institute’s libraries and reading rooms, where they were free to discuss topics that interested them. One of the unintended consequences of the failed Mechanics’ Institutes was the aiding in the creation of a democratic infrastructure for working class access to printed materials.... In short, despite being borne from a desire to regulate, they were an important precursor to the establishment of public libraries and a liberated mass reading public."

That seems simple, but it is not. He elaborates: 

When I first laid out these principles explicitly, I noticed something striking: this is practically a recipe for generating a contemptuous initial reaction. Though simple solutions are better, they don't seem as impressive as complex ones.
