Instead of steering children… Computational Knightian Uncertainty: Undecidability and the Limits of Cyber Risk Quantification in Software-Intensive Firms https://minh.systems/papers/cku.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z The paper argues that software creates a residual class of uncertainty that does not collapse neatly into ordinary probabilistic risk. Because many… Reference-Class Failure in Mortality Prediction: A Synthetic Study of Irreducible Uncertainty in End-of-Life Prognostic Models https://minh.systems/papers/mortality-reference-class.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Defines reference-class failure in mortality prediction: an end-of-life case can sit outside the development population’s transportable conditional… ShieldLink: Retry-Aware Authenticated Encryption for Secure and Reliable Chiplet Interconnects https://minh.systems/papers/shieldlink.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Chiplet die-to-die links such as UCIe/CXL handle reliability with link-layer retries while confidentiality lives in higher-layer authenticated encryption.… A Quantum Walk-Inspired Algorithm for Dynamic Resource Allocation in Cloud Computing: Implications for Sustainable Business Practices https://minh.systems/papers/quantum-walk.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Develops a quantum walk-inspired heuristic for dynamic resource allocation in cloud computing. The spreading behavior of quantum walks is used as a template… Computational Complexity of Organizational Decision Hierarchies https://minh.systems/papers/org-circuits.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Models organizational decision hierarchies as bounded-span monotone threshold circuits, making the tradeoffs between decision latency, accuracy, and… Dual-Polarity Preons II: Parameter-Space Constraints and Viable Regimes for an Emergent Acoustic Metric https://minh.systems/papers/preons-2.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z The follow-up to the dual-polarity preon toy model asks the harder question: in which regions of parameter space can the framework live at all? The paper… Dual-Polarity Preons: A Toy Model for Composite Neutral Pairs and Emergent Gravity https://minh.systems/papers/preons-1.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Proposes a toy model in which opposite-charge “dyads” bind into neutral pairs acting as composite bosonic excitations: a hidden U(1) interaction mediates… Federated Learning-Based Intrusion Detection System for IoT Networks in Resource-Constrained Environments https://minh.systems/papers/fl-ids.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z A lightweight federated-learning intrusion detection system for resource-constrained IoT deployments. Training stays decentralized, which removes the… Quadralzahlen: A Rotation-Invariant Numeral System That Reduces Upside-Down Misreads in Real-World Displays https://minh.systems/papers/quadralzahlen.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Introduces Quadralzahlen (QZ), a rotation-invariant numeral system for identifiers and state codes built to eliminate 180° misreads in rotation-rich… Simulated Minds, Artificial Consciousness, and the Theory-Relative Simulation Hypothesis https://minh.systems/papers/simulated-minds.html 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z Examines the simulation hypothesis and claims about artificial consciousness through one observation: any verdict about whether a simulated mind is…
