Abstract:
Survival analysis can sometimes involve individuals who will not experience the event of interest, forming what is known as the cured group. Identifying such individuals is not always possible beforehand, as they provide only right-censored data. Ignoring the presence of the cured group can introduce bias in the final model. This paper presents a method for estimating a semiparametric additive hazards model that accounts for the cured fraction. Unlike regression coefficients in a hazard ratio model, those in an additive hazard model measure hazard differences. The proposed method uses a primal-dual interior point algorithm to obtain constrained maximum penalized likelihood estimates of the model parameters, including the regression coefficients and the baseline hazard, subject to certain non-negativity constraints.

About
Welcome to ARIN
Established in December 1997, the American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) is a nonprofit, member-based organization that supports the operation and growth of the Internet.
ARIN accomplishes this by carrying out its core service, which is the management and distribution of Internet number resources such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). ARIN manages these resources within its service region, which comprises Canada, the United States, and many Caribbean and North Atlantic countries. ARIN also coordinates policy development by the community and advances the Internet through informational outreach. The following video provides an introduction to ARIN.
Organization Structure and Staff
ARIN is structured to operate as a service organization that is responsive to the needs of the public it serves. It is organized and driven by the users in the community and is thus able to keep in step with their requirements. The ARIN Board of Trustees and Advisory Council oversee and direct the President & CEO as well as the ARIN staff. A
full staff list and organizational chart
is available.

At any given time, ICANN is likely to be reviewing a number of different elements of the Internet's system. On top of that, due to the ever-changing nature of the Internet itself, ICANN is frequently changing and reviewing its structure and processes in order to keep it up to speed.
Public Comments
One of the easiest ways to review what is going on at this very moment is to check out what is currently undergoing a public comment period. All substantial policy changes - including drafts of documents - are put out for public comment, where any interested observer can make their views known. These public comments period can all be viewed at one webpage found at
http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment
.
On that page, you will see all open comment forums, those recently closed, upcoming forums and an archive of forums. An explanation of each forum is given, together with relevant links to other resources. All comments sent to ICANN are published and a summary/analysis of the comments carried out at the end of the period.
Supporting Organisations
On either side of the public comment forums are ICANN's supporting organisations and advisory committees, who are responsible for originating ideas and proposals, as well as commenting on others', and ultimately seeing policies through to their conclusion - approval by the ICANN Board. Each constituency has its own website, which details what it is currently reviewing, as well as what is coming up, and what was recently decided upon (the
full structure is here
).
Blog
For timely events and other issues that crop up by which is unlikely to form part of a formal decision-making process, ICANN also has
a blog
. Staff and key individuals in the ICANN community post news, reviews and simply interesting information on the blog, which is open to all and which welcomes comments from across the Internet.
ICANN Board
The ICANN Board is the body ultimately responsible for making decisions. The Board typically meets once a month, with details of upcoming meetings and their agenda (when available) all available on a
single webpage
. That page also provide lengthy minutes of past meetings and transcripts in the case of public Board meetings.
Announcements and Meetings
All formal announcements made by the organisation are put on its own
Announcements webpage
, with a news alert service sending out automated emails every time there is a new piece of news. And finally, there are
ICANN public meetings
, which take place over a week and see the ICANN community come together at locations across the world in order to discuss issues face-to-face.

Domain Name System
Internationalized Domain Name ,IDN,"IDNs are domain names that include characters used in the local representation of languages that are not written with the twenty-six letters of the basic Latin alphabet ""a-z"". An IDN can contain Latin letters with diacritical marks, as required by many European languages, or may consist of characters from non-Latin scripts such as Arabic or Chinese. Many languages also use other types of digits than the European ""0-9"". The basic Latin alphabet together with the European-Arabic digits are, for the purpose of domain names, termed ""ASCII characters"" (ASCII = American Standard Code for Information Interchange). These are also included in the broader range of ""Unicode characters"" that provides the basis for IDNs. The ""hostname rule"" requires that all domain names of the type under consideration here are stored in the DNS using only the ASCII characters listed above, with the one further addition of the hyphen ""-"". The Unicode form of an IDN therefore requires special encoding before it is entered into the DNS. The following terminology is used when distinguishing between these forms: A domain name consists of a series of ""labels"" (separated by ""dots""). The ASCII form of an IDN label is termed an ""A-label"". All operations defined in the DNS protocol use A-labels exclusively. The Unicode form, which a user expects to be displayed, is termed a ""U-label"". The difference may be illustrated with the Hindi word for ""test"" — परीका — appearing here as a U-label would (in the Devanagari script). A special form of ""ASCII compatible encoding"" (abbreviated ACE) is applied to this to produce the corresponding A-label: xn--11b5bs1di. A domain name that only includes ASCII letters, digits, and hyphens is termed an ""LDH label"". Although the definitions of A-labels and LDH-labels overlap, a name consisting exclusively of LDH labels, such as""icann.org"" is not an IDN."

WSIS+20 Outreach Network
The World Summit on the Information Society: 20-year review (WSIS+20) Outreach Network brings together like-minded stakeholders to facilitate coordinated efforts leading up to the WSIS+20 negotiations in 2025.
The WSIS+20 Outreach Network aims to provide rationale to the U.N. Member States, all stakeholders, and the general public for why the WSIS+20 Review Process should result in (among other goals) preserving the current multistakeholder model of Internet governance and extending the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) mandate.
Goals
The WSIS+20 Outreach Network will inform its members, as well as all relevant stakeholders, about latest developments in Internet governance and will:
Engage in discussions on how to preserve and continue to evolve the multistakeholder model of Internet governance for the good of all Internet users.
Provide space for stakeholders to share information on what they are doing to keep the Internet open, secure, and interoperable.
Promote the IGF as a platform for all stakeholders – governments, technical community, civil society, businesses, academia, individual users, and others – to come together on equal footing to discuss issues related to the Internet.
Bring together the collective voices of its members to safeguard the distinctive role of the technical community.
Why Now?
Fostering meaningful connections is more crucial than ever. Explore our outreach network to understand why now is the time to engage, collaborate, and leverage the collective expertise of members dedicated to making a positive impact globally.

Background
The U.N. General Assembly Resolution 56/183 (21 December 2001) endorsed the holding of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) in two phases. The first phase took place in Geneva from 10 to 12 December 2003 and the second phase took place in Tunis, from 16 to 18 November 2005.
The objective of the first phase was to develop and foster a clear statement of political will and take concrete steps to establish the foundations for an Information Society for all, reflecting all the different interests at stake. This phase ended with the acceptance of
The Geneva Declaration of Principles and Geneva Plan of Action
.
The objective of the second phase was to put Geneva's Plan of Action into motion as well as to find solutions and reach agreements in the fields of Internet governance, financing mechanisms, and follow-up and implementation of the Geneva and Tunis documents. It ended with the
Tunis Commitment and Tunis Agenda for the Information Society
.
In 2015 at the United Nations there was a review of the WSIS, called WSIS+10 Review which resulted in the publication of the WSIS+10 Outcome Document.
The technical community participated in the discussions at the WSIS in both phases, and provided diplomats at the U.N. with technical information about the functioning of the Internet through seminars and briefings, organized by ICANN in 2014 and 2015. It is expected that the WSIS+20 Review will again discuss issues that touch on ICANN’s mission in particular, and more generally - on issues related to the technical functioning of the Internet.
Role of the WSIS+20 Outreach Network Members
The WSIS+20 Outreach Network aims to support facilitating and leveraging the power of collective collaboration to effectively address challenges to the multistakeholder model of Internet governance.
Members can actively participate by sharing news and information about events of interest, how to participate, key messages, etc.
During the Geopolitical session at ICANN79, ICANN’s Government and Intergovernmental Organizations Team provided a
slide presentation
on the WSIS+20 Outreach Network; among the topics covered was an explanation of what the network is not: It is not a new structure within ICANN, or a new working group, and it will not produce common statements or positions.
Critical for the successful outcome of the WSIS+20 effort will be showcasing the positive outcomes of the multistakeholder model of Internet governance and actively engaging with all governments that will be negotiating the WSIS+20 outcome document.

Internet Governance
Internet governance is the complementary development and application by governments, the private sector, civil society and the technical community, in their respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures, and activities that shape the evolution and use of the Internet. For UNESCO, Internet Governance is a central issue because of Internet’s potential to foster sustainable human development and the building of inclusive knowledge societies, and enhancing the free flow of information and ideas throughout the world.
The Organization therefore advocates an open, transparent and inclusive approach to Internet Governance based on the principle of openness, encompassing the
freedom of expression
, respect for human rights and privacy, universal access and technical interoperability. Ethics and also the respect for cultural and linguistic diversity in cyberspace are other key concerns of the Organisation. All of these elements are essential for UNESCO to fulfill its mandate and mission entrusted to it by Member States.
The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) held in 2003 and 2005, resulted in the creation of the multistakeholder Internet Governance Forum – an annual forum in which international agencies, governments, Internet professionals, business and civil society organizations can explore, on equal footing, the development on the Internet and its interaction with other area of public policy.
All the information regarding the mandate of the IGF, the IGF Multistakeholder Advisory Group members, and the meetings are available on
