La desinformació multimodal sobre l’alteritat a Internet. Difusió de boles racistes, xenòfobes i islamòfobes el 2020
2021
espanolEste trabajo estudia la construccion de la imagen de la otredad a traves de la desinformacion en Internet. Para ello, aplica una metodologia de analisis de contenido a los 161 bulos de caracter racista, xenofobo o islamofobo desmentidos en 2020 por los cuatro medios espanoles de verificacion de informacion acreditados por la International Fact-Checking Network: Maldita.es, Newtral, Efe Verifica y Verificat. Los resultados evidencian que los formatos mas empleados fueron la imagen y el video, y que las desinformaciones se basaron mayoritariamente en la descontextualizacion y el engano, sin identificar su fuente. Los atributos mas transmitidos asociaron la otredad a la recepcion de ayu…
Email from Nancy Nutsucker
2006
This article addresses the representational conventions and gendered forms of address in online pornography through analysis of 366 unsolicited email (spam) messages advertising porn websites. Combining content description with close reading, it considers the terminology, imagery, narrative elements and points of view employed in advertising commercial heterosexual pornography. The spam advertisements create excessive displays of gender difference. It seems that limited female agency is central, especially in messages advertising reality sites structured by gendered relations of control. Arguing that such displays of control should not be automatically translated as displays of power, this…
DATING SECRETLY The Role of the Internet in Shaping Transnational Couple Formation in the Kurdish Diaspora
2016
Drawing on twenty-one in-depth interviews, this article discusses the Internet’s role in the formation of transnational marriages among migrant Kurds who live in Finland. In contrast to what is presented in the European media, my findings suggest that transnational couple formation among migrants should be seen as highly diverse and more than just practices that maintain and preserve “traditional” marriage customs. Transnational online dating practices make visible how young adult Kurds actively engage in partner formation and spousal selection. Online dating enables individual autonomy by widening the circle of potential partners outside familial circles and offers a private social space i…
DNS Tunneling Detection Techniques – Classification, and Theoretical Comparison in Case of a Real APT Campaign
2017
Domain Name System (DNS) plays an important role as a translation protocol in everyday use of the Internet. The purpose of DNS is to translate domain names into IP addresses and vice versa. However, its simple architecture can easily be misused for malicious activities. One huge security threat concerning DNS is tunneling, which helps attackers bypass the security systems unnoticed. A DNS tunnel can be used for three purposes: as a command and control channel, for data exfiltration or even for tunneling another protocol through it. In this paper, we surveyed different techniques for DNS tunneling detection. We classified those first based on the type of data and then within the categories b…
Quantitative approaches for evaluating the influence of films using the IMDb database
2016
[EN] Why do films certain remain influential throughout film history? The purpose of this paper is to attempt to answer this question. To do so, we adopt some quantitative approaches that facilitate an objective interpretation of the data. The data source we have chosen for this study is the Internet Online Movie Database (IMDb), and in particular, one of its sections called "Connections", which lists references made to a film in subsequent movies and references made in the film itself to previous ones. The extraction and analysis of these networks of citations allows us to draw some conclusions about the most influential movies in film history, identifying their distinguishing features, an…
Attention Check Items and Instructions in Online Surveys: Boon or Bane for Data Quality?
2019
In this paper, we examine rates of careless responding and reactions to detection methods (i.e., attention check items and instructions) in an experimental setting based on two different samples. First, we use a quota sample (with monetary incentive), a central data source for internet-based surveys in sociological and political research. Second, we include a voluntary opt-in panel (without monetary incentive) well suited for conducting survey experiments (e.g., factorial surveys). Respondents’ reactions to the detection items are analyzed by objective, nonreactive indicators (i.e., break-off, item non-response, and measurement quality), and two self-report scales. Our reaction analyses rev…
Industriālo lietiskā interneta servisu teorētiskais un praktiskais salīdzinājums
2018
Lietiskais internets strauji attīstās ceturtās industriālās revolūcijas dēļ. Pieaugot savienoto ierīču skaitam ražošanā, lietiskais internets ir viens no servisiem teju katrā mākoņu platformā. Šobrīd neeksistē universāls kritēriju kopums, lai noteiktu lietiskā interneta servisu atbilstību industriāliem pielietojumiem un veiktu to objektīvu salīdzinājumu. Darbā analizēti četri lietiskā interneta servisi – SAP Leonardo, IBM Watson, Google, AWS – lai noteiktu piemērotāko no tiem industriāliem pielietojumiem. Sākotnēji noteikti septiņi kritēriji, kuri analizēti, tādejādi ievadot darba pētniecisko daļu, kurā testēta lietiskā interneta sistēmu veiktspēja un ātrdarbība. Rezultātā iegūta metode kur…
Spējās izstrādes metodoloģijas pielietojums lietu interneta projektu izstrādē
2020
Lietu interneta projektu izstrāde ar gadiem kļūst aizvien komplicētāka, sarežģītāka un vairāk informācijas ietveroša, tāpēc ir ļoti svarīgi, lai atgriezeniskā saite, par produktu konkrētā izstrādes etapā tiktu gūta pēc iespējas ātrāk, lai gadījumā, ja klients vēlas veikt kādas izmaiņas vai labojumus, nepieciešamās darbības varētu veikt jau projekta sākuma stadijās negaidot līdz brīdim, kamēr projekts ir pabeigts, taču gaidāmais rezultāts nav sasniegts. Pētījumā mērķis ir noskaidrot, kādi ir pozitīvie aspekti un šķēršļi izmantojot spējo izstrādi lietu interneta projektu īstenošanai, kā arī noskaidrot, vai uzņēmumi jau šobrīd izmanto metodoloģiju vai tie dod priekšrocību kādu citu metodoloģij…

Business Constraints Integration in a Search Engine Optimization Fuzzy Decision Support System
2017
The Internet has dramatically changed the way companies can reach their clients. Henceforth, to develop their business online, companies have to drive qualified traffic to their website. For this, their website must be visible in the first pages of search engine results. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) permits the improvement of the position of a website on the search engines results pages. However, the practice of SEO is complex, and results are uncertain, because search engines do not communicate much about their ranking methods. Moreover, this activity takes time, and requires the implementation of modifications that can alter the visual appearance of the webpages. This paper proposes a…
