Latvijas jauniešu stratēģijas sociālo tīklu satura veidošanā
2019
Bakalaura darba mērķis ir saprast, kādas ir Latvijas jauniešu stratēģijas sociālo tīklu satura veidošanā. Darba izvirzītās hipotēzes ir: 1) publicējot saturu sociālajos tīklos, jaunieši ir vairāk tendēti veidot savu tēlu citādāk, nekā tas ir reālajā dzīvē, 2) sievietes biežāk aizdomājas par iespaida atstāšanu, publicējot saturu sociālajos tīklos, nekā vīrieši, 3) sievietes biežāk aizdomājas par privātuma un datu drošības jautājumiem, publicējot saturu sociālajos tīklos, nekā vīrieši. Bakalaura darba teorētiskajā daļa autore veica analīzi par interneta telpu un sociālajiem tīkliem. Tāpat izpētīja jauniešu sevis izrādīšanu sociālajos tīklos Ērvinga Gofmaņa dramaturģiskās pieejas kontekstā, kā…
Pašnāvību atspoguļojums un atbildīga ziņošana par tām Latvijas interneta ziņu portālos
2022
Bakalaura darbā analizēts pašnāvību atspoguļojums un atbildīga ziņošana par pašnāvībām Latvijas interneta ziņu portālos “delfi.lv”, “tvnet.lv”, “jauns.lv”, “lsm.lv” un “la.lv” laika posmā no 2018. gada līdz 2021. gadam. Darba mērķis ir izpētīt un analizēt interneta ziņu portālu “delfi.lv”, “tvnet.lv”, “jauns.lv”, “lsm.lv” un “la.lv” publikāciju saturu laika posmā no 2018. gada līdz 2021. gadam, noskaidrojot, kā tajā atspoguļotas pašnāvības un vai publikācijās ievēroti atbildīgas ziņošanas par pašnāvībām principi. Galvenie darbā izmantotie teorētiskie ietvari ir Emīla Dirkema “Pašnāvība”, simboliskais interakcionisms un Ērvinga Gofmaņa rāmējuma teorija, kā arī Vertera un Papageno efekta, pēt…
‘I’m still the master of the machine.’ Internet users’ awareness of algorithmic decision-making and their perception of its effect on their autonomy
2020
Algorithms are an integral part of our everyday lives and shape the selection and presentation of information and communication on the internet. At the same time, media users are faced with a lack of control and transparency when interacting with these systems because algorithms largely remain black boxes to end users. Relying on the notion that algorithms are socio-technical systems that comprise both technical and human components, this paper examines internet users’ awareness of algorithms in different areas of internet use and inquires into users’ perceptions of the impact of algorithms on their autonomy when interacting online. Empirically, we rely on qualitative interviews with 30 Ger…
Performance evaluation of fuzzy-neural HTTP request distribution for Web clusters
2006
In this paper we present the performance evaluation of our fuzzy-neural HTTP request distribution algorithm called FNRD, which assigns each incoming request to the server in the Web cluster with the quickest expected response time. The fuzzy mechanism is used to estimate the expected response times. A neural-based feedback loop is used for real-time tuning of response time estimates. To evaluate the system, we have developed a detailed simulation and workload model using CSIM19 package. Our simulations show that FNRD can be more effective than its competitors.
Leveraging technology for healthcare and retaining access to personal health data to enhance personal health and well-being
2021
Abstract Health data are a sensitive category of personal data. They can result in a high risk to individuals and health information-handling rights and opportunities unless there is a sufficient defense. Reasonable security standards are needed to protect electronic health records (EHRs). All personal data handling needs adequate explanation. Maintaining access to medical data, even in the developing world, would favor health and well-being across the world. Unfortunately, there are still countries that hinder the portability of medical records. Numerous occurrences have shown that it still takes weeks for medical data to be ported from one general physician to another. Cross-border portab…
Applying Patterns for Improving Subcontracting Management
2005
This paper studies inter-organizational communication of strategic design information. The focus is on global software subcontracting, where communication problems are common. Software patterns, which have been recognized as a valuable tool in software development, are proposed to be means to facilitate the communication of design information in subcontracting relationship. The position of patterns in subcontracting related processes are studied and the implications of introducing patterns to software subcontracting relationship are analyzed. As a result an evaluation of software patterns’ suitability as means for efficient, systematic and explicit communication in managing the subcontracti…
New novel idea for Cloud Computing: How can we use Kalman filter in security of Cloud Computing
2012
Cloud is a virtual image about some amount of undefined powers, that is widespread and had unknown power and inexact amount of hardware and software configurations, and because of we have not any information about clouds location and time dimensions and also the amounts of its sources we tell that Cloud Computing. This technology presents lots of abilities and opportunities such as processing power, storage and accessing it from everywhere, supporting, working - team group - with the latest versions of software and etc., by the means of internet. On the other hand, in such a large scale networks we should consider the reliability and powerfulness of such networks in facing with events such …
Too many passwords? How understanding our memory can increase password memorability
2018
Abstract Passwords are the most common authentication mechanism, that are only increasing with time. Previous research suggests that users cannot remember multiple passwords. Therefore, users adopt insecure password practices, such as password reuse in response to their perceived memory limitations. The critical question not currently examined is whether users’ memory capabilities for password recall are actually related to having a poor memory. This issue is imperative: if insecure password practices result from having a poor memory, then future password research and practice should focus on increasing the memorability of passwords. If, on the other hand, the problem is not solely related …
Latviešu imigranti Somijā
2015
Bakalaura darbs "Latviešu imigranti Somijā" ir par imigrantiem Somijā, kas nākuši no Latvija, kurus oficiālajos statistikas datos var identificēt pēc sekojošajiem parametriem: Latvijas pilsonība, Latvija kā dzimšanas vieta vai latviešu valoda kā dzimtā valoda. Šo imigrantu izpētei tika izmantota kvantitatīvā datu iegūšanas un apstrādes metode, un tika lietoti gan primārie dati, kas šajā bakalaura darbā tika iegūti ar interneta aptaujas anketas palīdzību, gan sekundāri dati, kas tika iegūti no Tilastokeskus (Somijas statistikas pārvalde). Šo datu interpretēšanas palīdzībā tika izmantotas dažādas starptautiskās migrācijas teorijas. Bakalaura darba secinājumi par galveno tēmu, latviešu migrant…
5G IoT System for Real-Time Psycho-Acoustic Soundscape Monitoring in Smart Cities With Dynamic Computational Offloading to the Edge
2021
Environmental noise monitoring for smart cities need to be as much efficient as possible in order to mitigate its significant impact in the health of their inhabitants. 5G Internet of Things (IoT) systems offer a big opportunity to offload the computation from the sensor nodes, since it provides a series of new concepts for dynamic computing that the previous technologies did not offer. In this article, a complete 5G IoT system for psycho-acoustic monitoring has been designed and implemented using different options for offloading computation to different parts of the system. This offloading has been done by developing different functional splittings of the psycho-acoustic metrics algorithms…
