Immersion revisited:A review of existing definitions of immersion and their relation to different theories of presence
2016
The term immersion continues to be applied inconsistently within and across different fields of research connected with the study of virtual reality and interactive media. Moreover, immersion is oftentimes used interchangeably with the terms presence and engagement. This article details a review of existing definitions of immersion originating within the study of video games, virtual environments, and literary works of fiction. Based on this review, a three-dimensional taxonomy of the various conceptualizations of immersion is proposed. That is, the existing definitions of immersion may be broadly divided into three categories, each representing a dimension of the taxonomy: immersion as a p…
A Knowledge Interface System for Information and Cyber Security Using Semantic Wiki
2018
Resilience against information and cyber security threats has become an essential ability for organizations to maintain business continuity. As bulletproof security is an unattainable goal, organizations need to concentrate to select optimal countermeasures against information and cyber security threats. Implementation of cyber risk management actions require special knowledge and resources, which especially small and medium-size enterprises often lack. Information and cyber security risk management establish knowledge intensive business processes, which can be assisted with a proper knowledge management system. This paper analyzes how Semantic MediaWiki could be used as a platform to assis…

Information Systems Architecture and Technology: Proceedings of 38th International Conference on Information Systems Architecture and Technology – IS…
2018
This three-volume set of books presents advances in the development of concepts and techniques in the area of new technologies and contemporary information system architectures. It guides readers through solving specific research and analytical problems to obtain useful knowledge and business value from the data. Each chapter provides an analysis of a specific technical problem, followed by the numerical analysis, simulation and implementation of the solution to the problem. The books constitute the refereed proceedings of the 2017 38th International Conference “Information Systems Architecture and Technology,” or ISAT 2017, held on September 17–19, 2017 in Szklarska Poręba, Poland. The con…

The Role of Information in Art Museum Communication Process
2013
Abstract The way that nowadays world is constantly changing influences both individuals and organizations. They have to act in an innovative, fast environment, pursuing their goals. The amount of information increases and it becomes difficult to filtrate and transform it. This is a conceptual paper, which aims at analysing art museums in nowadays society from a communication perspective. It starts out by describing how the museum institution managed to adapt during time and the way it modified under the action of innovation. It describes the needs and functions that such an institution has in society and corroborates them with the information sending process, offering scenario in which an e…
Evaluación del impacto del uso de dispositivos de radio definida por software como herramienta docente en la materia de comunicaciones digitales
2020
La innovación educativa es un proceso que se extiende más allá de un año académico. En su desarrollo se distinguen las etapas de planificación, implementación, evaluación y retroalimentación para identificar los aspectos susceptibles de mejora. En esta contribución, presentamos un procedimiento para evaluar el impacto del uso de dispositivos de radio definidos por software en los laboratorios de comunicaciones digitales. Este procedimiento evalúa el compromiso de los estudiantes, además se implementan sesiones de laboratorio más realistas que se acercan a los sistemas de comunicaciones actuales y se alejan de las prácticas de simulación estándar. Se cuantifica el compromiso de los estudiant…
Hypervisor-assisted Atomic Memory Acquisition in Modern Systems
2019
Reliable memory acquisition is essential to forensic analysis of a cyber-crime. Various methods of memory acquisition have been proposed, ranging from tools based on a dedicated hardware to software only solutions. Recently, a hypervisor-based method for memory acquisition was proposed (Qi et al., 2017; Martignoni et al., 2010). This method obtains a reliable (atomic) memory image of a running system. The method achieves this by making all memory pages non-writable until they are copied to the memory image, thus preventing uncontrolled modification of these pages. Unfortunately, the proposed method has two deficiencies: (1) the method does not support multiprocessing and (2) the method does…
An Efficient Implementation of Parallel Parametric HRTF Models for Binaural Sound Synthesis in Mobile Multimedia
2020
The extended use of mobile multimedia devices in applications like gaming, 3D video and audio reproduction, immersive teleconferencing, or virtual and augmented reality, is demanding efficient algorithms and methodologies. All these applications require real-time spatial audio engines with the capability of dealing with intensive signal processing operations while facing a number of constraints related to computational cost, latency and energy consumption. Most mobile multimedia devices include a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) that is primarily used to accelerate video processing tasks, providing high computational capabilities due to its inherent parallel architecture. This paper describes…
Analysis and description of an open source janitor project
2006
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2006 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad The objective of this study is to describe the inside and impact of the Linux Kernel Janitor Project. To describe and discuss how such janitor activity can be useful for others is also an objective. The Linux Kernel Janitor Project is a project defined to perform maintenance of the Linux kernel source, often taking on tasks that nobody else will be doing. The patches produced by the janitors have been analysed and some of the effects and properties of the work the project has carried out are described. Analysis show that janitor activity reduces the amount of code while still keeping the same functio…
