Meeting others—supporting situation awareness on the WWW

2001

Abstract World Wide Web (WWW) techniques provide a simple interface, which is accessible almost everywhere. The WWW supports document sharing and information retrieval, but has no tools for direct user interaction, simply because the mechanisms to support user awareness are missing. The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we present general concepts of situation awareness, which concerns the user interaction on the WWW platform, and a theoretical framework, which is used in examining existing awareness support systems. Second, we provide an analysis of PeopleAwarenessEngine, which supports situation awareness and enables user communication and collaboration on the WWW.

A Territorial-driven approach to capture the transformative momentum of the Social Economy especially from the agricultural cooperatives

2021

In the last few lustrums, the literature has searched for more precise methods to assess the socio-economic importance of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE). On that basis, this article offers a new way of assessing the SSE impact, enhancing the understanding of the SSE potential for socio-economic transformation. An evolutionary micro–meso–macro and territorial theoretical framework is developed, utilizing, along with the assistance of a qualitative methodology, studies on the transformation promoted by the SSE on the sugar cane cluster of Veracruz (Mexico). The main results of the article are that the SSE boost beneficiaries, while the protagonists of the transformation c…

Convergence Analysis of Distributed Set-Valued Information Systems

2016

This paper focuses on the convergence of information in distributed systems of agents communicating over a network. The information on which the convergence is sought is not rep- resented by real numbers, as often in the literature, rather by sets. The dynamics of the evolution of information across the net- work is accordingly described by set-valued iterative maps. While the study of convergence of set-valued iterative maps is highly complex in general, this paper focuses on Boolean maps, which are comprised of arbitrary combinations of unions, intersections, and complements of sets. For these important class of systems, we provide tools to study both global and local convergence. A distr…

International audience; Since the 2000s, several researchers from various disciplines recognize and questionthe information structure as the communication processes in territorial approaches.Catalyse method modelled some, whose specifications have been described over thepublications of the INTI network (available on-http://halshs.archivesouvertes.fr/INTI/fr/) or disciplinary (see www.sfsic. org andhttp://rfsic.revues.org/).The structuring of information has seen technological developments described byother colleagues on INTI (JJ. Girardot, S. Damy, B. Hermann, P. Gerardin, G.Devillet...). The communication aspect necessary for this structuration must in turn bemodelled and positioned in the…

Educació Intercultural i TIC: claus pedagògiques de la innovació i el canvi social en el segle XXI

2012

Aquest article planteja la necessitat d'oferir claus pedagògics de la innovació i canvi social a les universitats i institucions de formació del segle XXI. Per tant, el que subratlla és la importància de promoure l'educació intercultural a través de les TIC (tecnologies de la informació i comunicació) com a element d'innovació i projecció positiva de la diversitat cultural. Cooperació en xarxa des d'una perspectiva intercultural i la promoció d'habilitats Interculturals són elements fonamentals per a transformar una societat formació escenaris en permanent canvi social.

A strategic approach for the discounted Shapley values

2014

The family of discounted Shapley values is analyzed for cooperative games in coalitional form. We consider the bargaining protocol of the alternating random proposer introduced in Hart and Mas-Colell (Econometrica 64:357–380, 1996). We demonstrate that the discounted Shapley values arise as the expected payoffs associated with the bargaining equilibria when a time discount factor is considered. In a second model, we replace the time cost with the probability that the game ends without agreements. This model also implements these values in transferable utility games, moreover, the model implements the \(\alpha \)-consistent values in the nontransferable utility setting.

THE STABILITY, RISK AND PERFORMANCE OF COOPERATIVE BANKS

2013

In a market economy, tradition, stability and performance of cooperative banks, namely science and art of leadership, management, organization and their administration become major facets in promoting and improving cooperative banks, at the microeconomic level, to which we provide a coherent set of concepts, principles, methods and management techniques, their knowledge contributing to the viability and practical implementation, modernization and development of cooperative banks to increase their profitability and competitiveness in heightened risk conditions on local, national and even global markets. In the context of major changes in Romanian society, the action of the forces inside the …

Transparencia y nuevas tecnologías en las Cooperativas de crédito

2004

An international reaction was required to the financial scandals of recent years, and some States started to reform corporate governance. Two main systems were used – self-regulation through good governance codes, and legislative measures to achieve transparency in financial markets. The principle of transparency is based on two premises – corporate governance and business information in the framework of new technologies. This study analyses the enforcement of the new Spanish legislation on transparency in credit cooperatives from a dual perspective – that of organisational structure, and members’ rights to information and the use of new technologies.
