Adoption of a COVID-19 Contact Tracing App Among Older Internet Users in Finland
2022
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic created an unequal need for limiting physical contacts and tracing possible exposures to a novel coronavirus. Smartphone-based contact tracing applications (CTAs) were presented as a vehicle for stopping virus transmission chains and supporting the work of contact tracing teams. In this study, older adults’ adoption of a CTA was studied using socioeconomic background factors, satisfaction with health, and the measure of digital activity as predictors. The data were drawn from a larger questionnaire survey targeted at older internet users. A subsample of older Finnish internet users (N = 723) was analyzed using a logistic regression model. Results showed…
CellMinerHCC: a microarray-based expression database for hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines.
2012
Background & Aims Therapeutic options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) still remain limited. Development of gene targeted therapies is a promising option. A better understanding of the underlying molecular biology is gained in in vitro experiments. However, even with targeted manipulation of gene expression varying treatment responses were observed in diverse HCC cell lines. Therefore, information on gene expression profiles of various HCC cell lines may be crucial to experimental designs. To generate a publicly available database containing microarray expression profiles of diverse HCC cell lines. Methods Microarray data were analyzed using an individually scripted R program package. Dat…
Consideraciones gráficas y lingüísticas del lenguaje cibernético: el chat y el Messenger.
2009
Este trabajo pretende estudiar el comportamiento lingüístico de intercambios comunicativos en plataformas cibernéticas como el chat o el Messenger. Así mismo, el planteamiento inicial es investigar si el lenguaje cibernético constituye un código particular, diferenciado del código del lenguaje habitual. This work tries to study linguistic behavior of communicative exchanges in cybernetic platforms like chat or Messenger. Likewise, the initial approach is to investigate if the cybernetic language constitutes a particular code, separated from common language code. Adrian.Cabedo@uv.es
Características y difusión de las revistas científico-técnicas españolas de ciencias de la actividad física y el deporte
2007
El objetivo de este artículo es presentar la situación actual de las revistas españolas de Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte (CCAFD). Para ello se actualiza el inventario de publicaciones periódicas vigentes y se analizan varias de sus características editoriales básicas como la antigüedad, periodicidad, lugar de edición, institución editora, tipo de soporte y tipo de formato editorial. También se estudia la circulación de dichas publicaciones en las bases de datos nacionales e internacionales selectivas y la difusión que tienen por internet a través de la accesibilidad, el contenido y los servicios añadidos que ofrecen. Se concluye que las CCAFD es un campo joven y poco consolid…
AI-IoT Platform for Blind Estimation of Room Acoustic Parameters Based on Deep Neural Networks
2023
Room acoustical parameters have been widely used to describe sound perception in indoor environments, such as concert halls, conference rooms, etc. Many of them have been standardized and often have a high computational demand. With the increasing presence of deep learning approaches in automatic monitoring systems, wireless acoustic sensor networks (WASNs) offer great potential to facilitate the estimation of such parameters. In this scenario, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) offer significant reductions in the computational requirements for in-node parameter predictions, enabling the so-called Artificial Intelligence-Internet of Things (AI-IoT). In this paper, we describe the design a…
Pornografía infantil: cambios en las formas de obtención y distribución
2017
RESUMEN: El objetivo de este estudio es sintetizar el conocimiento científico sobre los principales mecanismos empleados para la obtención y distribución de pornografía infantil a lo largo de la historia. Para ello, se ha realizado una búsqueda exhaustiva de los trabajos publicados hasta 2016, siendo seleccionados un total de 37. Los resultados obtenidos permiten diferenciar cuatro grandes etapas del tráfico de pornografía infantil (comercial, informatizada, Internet, oculta), en las que los consumidores han migrado hacia tecnologías que les resultan más atractivas y adecuadas para sus fines (Deep Web y redes p2p sin filtro). Sin embargo, un sistema descentralizado como Internet impide la a…
Digital Health Communications.
2021
International audience; There are many controversies with respect to health crisis management: the search for information on symptoms, misinformation on emerging treatments, massive use of collaborative tools by healthcare professionals, deployment of applications for tracking infected patients. The Covid-19 crisis is a relevant example about the need for research in digital communications in order to understand current health info-communication.After an overview of the challenges of digital healthcare, this book offers a critical look at the organizational and professional limits of ICT uses for patients, their caregivers and healthcare professionals. It analyzes the links between ICT and …
Protecting Human Subjects in Internet Research
2005
The growth of the Internet as a research venue has led to practical, legal, and ethical problems regarding the protection of human subjects. Among these are difficulty in verifying subjects’ identities, gaining informed consent, and assuring ethically- correct research. The authors summarize the current standards pertaining to the protection of human subjects in online research and present a set of guidelines for dealing ethically, legally, and practically with the issues of privacy and confidentiality, intellectual property, informed consent, and protection from harm. As computer-mediated communications merge and evolve, as the Internet becomes more and more a part of everyday life, and as…
Experimental Analysis of IoT Networks Based on LoRa/LoRaWAN under Indoor and Outdoor EnvirMedusonments: Performance and Limitations
2021
Nowadays, Internet of Things (IoT) has multiple applications in different fields. This concept allows physical devices to connect to the internet in order to establish a strong infrastructure that facilitates many device control and monitoring tasks. Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) communication protocols become widely used for IoT networks because of their low power consumption and the broad range communication. LPWA enables devices to transmit small amounts of data in a long distance. Among LPWA protocols, LoRa technology gained a lot of interest recently from the research community and many companies. LoRa is a long range and low power wireless communication technology regulated by the LoRaWA…
