LGBT+ pāru tiesiskā regulējuma diskurss Latvijas populārākajos interneta ziņu portālos un intervijās ar to lasītājiem
2022
Maģistra darba mērķis ir noskaidrot LGBT+ pāru tiesiskā regulējuma diskursus populārākajos Latvijas interneta ziņu portālos (“Delfi.lv”, “Tvnet.lv”, “LSM.lv”, “Jauns.lv” un “LA.lv”) un intervijās ar to lasītājiem. Darba teorētiskā daļa ietver diskursa jēdziena un ziņu veidošanos no mediju–auditorijas attiecību aspekta skaidrojumu, minoritāšu jēdziena skaidrojumu. Teorijas izklāstā ir apkopota informācija par LGBT+ kopienu Latvijā. Lai iegūtu pētījuma rezultātus tika izmantota kvantitatīvā kontentanalīze, daļēji strukturēto interviju pieeja, kā arī diskursa vēsturiskā analīze. Populārākajos Latvijas interneta ziņu portālos tika identificēti divi galvenie LGBT+ pāru tiesiskā regulējuma apakšd…
Robotic Process Automation and Consequences for Knowledge Workers; a Mixed-Method Study
2020
Part 2: Fourth Industrial Revolution; International audience; This paper explores an overly optimistic and tenacious claim in the literature that robotic process automation (RPA) will only free knowledge workers from mundane tasks and introduce more interesting work. We explore this claim and other consequences for knowledge workers using data from a sequential quantitative-qualitative, mixed-method study in Norway. 88 RPA users from different sectors and industries where first surveyed to identify differences in utilization and effects from RPA. Then, differences were explored in 24 in-depth interviews in the public and private sectors, including financial industry, manufacturing, and oil …
Leader election and local identifiers for three‐dimensional programmable matter
2020
International audience; In this paper, we present two deterministic leader election algorithms for programmable matter on the face-centered cubic grid. The face-centered cubic grid is a 3-dimensional 12-regular infinite grid that represents an optimal way to pack spheres (i.e., spherical particles or modules in the context of the programmable matter) in the 3-dimensional space. While the first leader election algorithm requires a strong hypothesis about the initial configuration of the particles and no hypothesis on the system configurations that the particles are forming, the second one requires fewer hypothesis about the initial configuration of the particles but does not work for all pos…
Dynamic Ordering of Firewall Rules Using a Novel Swapping Window-based Paradigm
2016
Designing and implementing efficient firewall strategies in the age of the Internet of Things (IoT) is far from trivial. This is because, as time proceeds, an increasing number of devices will be connected, accessed and controlled on the Internet. Additionally, an ever-increasingly amount of sensitive information will be stored on various networks. A good and effi- cient firewall strategy will attempt to secure this information, and to also manage the large amount of inevitable network traffic that these devices create. The goal of this paper is to propose a framework for designing optimized firewalls for the IoT. This paper deals with two fundamental challenges/problems encountered in such…
PARSI
2012
A usual target of automatic assessment in CS education has been a computer program or some other software engineering product. In this paper, we describe the 'PARSI' tool that is used for the automatic assessment of stylistic and technical correctness of office documents and some basic IT skills such as email netiquette and email lists usage. The PARSI tool enables us to run a highly populated course with only one teacher, and investigate how we could make such a course a flexible learning experience where learners take an active role.
A status report
1992
Abstract This article considers the financial and proprietary considerations applicable to computer crime, computer security and personal privacy. The failure to take proper precautions in these areas can lead to major operational problems and substantial loss of assets. Developments in the late 1980s, particulary the discovery by the public press of so-called ‘computer viruses’, indicates the need for counsel representing suppliers and users to understand the basic technology involved and the legal implications. Such a report by Robert Bigelow was first published in CLSR in March 1989. He has now updated and revised the text which will be featured in several parts. In the first parts the l…
La metáfora bélica durante la crisis sanitaria de la gripe A
2011
This article aims to illustrate how became a fundamental communicative resource for the mass media when reporting on the H1N1 virus during the swine flu health crisis. This analogy heightened public fear so much so that many individuals demanded that the government acquire certain drugs and vaccines to protect themselves from the virus. This research is based on the information which appeared in three national dailies –El Pais, El Mundo and ABC– over a six-month period, as well as academic publications, documents and articles available in the media and Internet.
Aproximación al léxico del turismo activo: codificación lexicográfica, formación y variación denominativa
2015
En el presente artículo se describe el léxico que conforma el llamado turismo activo del español europeo y se analiza desde tres puntos de vista: su codificación lexicográfica, contrastando el diccionario de la Real Academia Española con diccionarios descriptivos; la formación de sus unidades, que abarca el fenómeno del préstamo y los distintos mecanismos de creación de palabras; y, en tercer lugar, la variación formal y denominativa que caracteriza este vocabulario. El corpus de voces y de muestras de uso ha sido extraído de Internet, en concreto de determinadas fuentes legislativas disponibles en la red y de diferentes páginas web promocionales. Igualmente, se han tomado como referencia d…
Reflections on the role and design of online dictionaries for specialised translation
2014
Este artículo trata de los diccionarios especializados de traducción. Basado en los principios de la teoría funcional, analiza las diversas fases y subfases del proceso traductivo desde una perspectiva lexicográfica mostrando que un diccionario de traducción, si realmente pretende resolver las complejas necesidades de sus usuarios, debe ser mucho más que un simple diccionario bilingüe. A continuación presenta un concepto global de diccionario de traducción que incluye diversos componentes monolingües y bilingües en ambas direcciones entre las dos lenguas en cuestión. Finalmente, el artículo debate cómo este concepto puede aplicarse en Internet con el fin de desarrollar diccionarios de tradu…
Openings and closings in Spanish email conversations
2011
Abstract Despite the increasing interest scholarly research has shown in the study of computer-mediated communication, there is still a need to investigate the empirical validity of assumed homogeneity of language usage over the net and focus on the social diversity and variation that characterizes any communication. With this in mind, the present paper is an investigation into the stylistic choices that a particular group of email users made when engaged in a specific activity type. More specifically, it explores the variation in the discourse practices employed to open and close emails in conversation alongside the institutional power of participants and the interactional position of each…
