Processing privacy information and decision-making for smartphone apps among young German smartphone users
2018
While privacy behaviour is generally equated with self-disclosure, other forms of behaviour that potentially infringe an individual’s privacy, such as downloading an app, are being neglected by research. We seek to fill this gap by modelling app decision-making within a dual-process model of the attitude–behaviour relationship and the role of privacy attitudes in two kinds of information processing: (1) spontaneous, heuristic processes that rely on automated attitude activation and (2) elaborate, cognitive processes that rely on behavioural intentions to guide behaviour. We used a quasi-experimental design to investigate app decision-making processes for N = 89 participants in N = 254 decis…
View Planning Approach for Automatic 3D Digitization of Unknown Objects
2012
International audience; This paper addresses the view planning problem for the digitization of 3D objects without prior knowledge on their shape and presents a novel surface approach for the Next Best View (NBV) computation. The proposed method uses the concept of Mass Vector Chains (MVC) to define the global orientation of the scanned part. All of the viewpoints satisfying an orientation constraint are clustered using the Mean Shift technique to construct a first set of candidates for the NBV. Then, a weight is assigned to each mode according to the elementary orientations of its different descriptors. The NBV is chosen among the modes with the highest weights and which comply with the rob…
Using crowdsourcing for a safer society: When the crowd rules
2020
Neighbours sharing information about robberies in their district through social networking platforms, citizens and volunteers posting about the irregularities of political elections on the Internet, and internauts trying to identify a suspect of a crime: in all these situations, people who share different degrees of relationship collaborate through the Internet and other technologies to try to help with or solve an offence. The crowd, which is sometimes seen as a threat, in these cases becomes an invaluable resource that can complement law enforcement through collective intelligence. Owing to the increasing growth of such initiatives, this article conducts a systematic review of the litera…
An empirical study of performance using Clone & Own and Software Product Lines in an industrial context
2021
Abstract Context: Clone and Own (CaO) is a widespread approach to generate new software products from existing software products by adding small changes. The Software Product Line (SPL) approach addresses the development of families of products with similar features, moving away from the production of isolated products. Despite the popularity of both approaches, no experiment has yet compared them directly. Objective: The goal of this paper is to know the different performances of software engineers in the software products development process using two different approaches (SPL and CaO). Method: We conducted an experiment in the induction hobs software environment with software engineers. …
Key drivers of internet banking services use
2009
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse the determinants of internet banking use, paying special attention to the role of product involvement, perceived risk and trust.Design/methodology/approachThe impact of trust, perceived risks, product involvement and TAM beliefs (ease of use and usefulness) on internet banking adoption is tested through structural equation modelling techniques. The sample consists of 511 Spanish internet banking services users and the data are collected through an internet survey. Risk is measured as a formative construct.FindingsData analysis shows that TAM beliefs and perceived risks (security, privacy, performance and social) have a direct influence on e‐ban…
RDF-Based Web Information Integration System: A Travel System Use Case
2018
Enterprises are continually faced with the challenge of integrating heterogeneous systems with incompatible interfaces, data structures (Source structured relational databases, semi-structured sources, XML, or unstructured documents: texts), access mode and technologies. When companies adopt SOA (Service Oriented Architecture), that provides an alternative to traditional design of applications by allowing a designer to assemble and compose existing services that implement the functions of a given application domain, they realize that there is a significant risk that Web services only do not solve the problem of compatibility in the data. Our paper gives a solution to these issues by setting…

Event‐brand transfer in an entertainment service: experiential marketing
2013
PurposeOne of the channels a brand can use to create experiences is events. The brand promoting the event and its sponsors can obtain various benefits in the form of brand image, personality and notoriety.

EQS was used to test the proposed model.Finding…
The value of B2B relationships
2009
PurposeThe purpose of the paper is to contribute to the knowledge of how relationship value, trust, commitment, satisfaction and loyalty intentions are defined and relate to each other. It explores these relationships in the business‐to‐business (B2B) context by analysing manufacturing companies regarding to their main supplier.Design/methodology/approachAfter the literature review and several in‐depth interviews, a method of empirical analysis consisting of quantitative intervention with an ad hoc survey using a structured questionnaire has been developed. Structural equations modeling is used to contrast the hypotheses on the links between the constructs analysed.FindingsConfirmatory fact…
The influence of belonging to virtual brand communities on consumers' affective commitment, satisfaction and word‐of‐mouth advertising
2011
PurposeThis paper aims to explore some of the effects of belonging to a virtual brand community on consumer behaviour. It also proposes the concept of belonging as a three‐dimensional construct.Design/methodology/approachThe paper proposes that belonging to a virtual community has positive effects on consumer satisfaction, affective commitment and word‐of‐mouth behaviour. After validation of the measurement scales the hypotheses are contrasted through modelling.FindingsThe data show that belonging to a virtual community may enhance consumer satisfaction, affective commitment and word‐of‐mouth advertising towards the brand around which the community is developed. In addition, the paper intro…
