Facilitation of goal-setting and follow-up in an internet intervention for health and wellness
2010
Chronic work-related stress and insufficient recovery from workload can gradually lead to problems with mental and physical health. Resources in healthcare are limited especially for preventive treatment, but low-cost support can be provided by Internet-based behavior change interventions. This paper describes the design of an Internet intervention which supports working-age people in managing and preventing stress-related health and wellness problems. The intervention is designed for early prevention and aims to motivate individuals to take responsibility for their own well-being. It allows them to choose the approach to take to address personally significant issues, while guiding them thr…
Yhteiskunnan digimurros
2021
“The biggest part of our digital transformation is changing the way we think.” — Simeon Preston, CEO of International Markets unit in Bupa. Yhteiskunnan digimurros on laaja termi, joka kuvaa kokonaisvaltaista muutostilaa. Digimurros koskettaa lähes kaikkia elämän osa-alueita tämän päivän länsimaisessa kehittyneessä valtiossa. Digimurroksesta on puhuttu paljon muun muassa talouden ja teollisuuden konteksteissa, mutta on perusteltua sanoa, että kyseessä on yhteiskunnan kannalta paljon laajamittaisempi termi. Puhumme myös usein digitalisoituneesta yhteiskunnasta, mutta tämäkään ei itsessään ole riittävä termi ottamaan huomioon digitalisaation luomia muutoksia. Digimurros on enemmän kuin kokoel…
El derecho al olvido en el Big data: nuevos retos para la protección de la privacidad
2018
Esta tesis doctoral es un estudio sobre el desarrollo del derecho al olvido digital como un derecho fundamental. Con este fin, se ha presentado un enfoque doctrinal y jurisprudencial de este derecho de nueva generación, con el objetivo de desarrollar una caracterización, tanto en términos formales como materiales, que permita describir el derecho al olvido digital como un derecho fundamental. La realización de este estudio surge de dos premisas: en primer lugar, la importancia de Big Data como un proceso integrador de la revolución digital, un fenómeno de cambio transversal que ha venido a redefinir los códigos, usos y formas de interacción social típicos de la posmodernidad. En segundo lug…

Cine documental y movimientos sociales en la era de Internet: discursos sobre control y prácticas de resistencia durante el G8 de Génova
2020
La presente investigación tiene como punto de partida el análisis de la representación fílmica y de los «documentales militantes» como textos capaces de generar nuevos sentidos y nuevas memorias colectivas. Esta tesis se basa en el análisis de seis películas documentales realizadas en relación con el G8 de Génova de 2001, con la finalidad de investigar cómo se representan, construyen y reproducen realidades y memorias relacionadas con acontecimientos que, desde el principio del siglo XXI y en el contexto occidental de la globalización capitalista, han visto el desarrollo de nuevas soberanías y políticas institucionales que privilegian la violencia, el miedo y la tortura como tecnologías bio…
Blockchain Disrupting Fintech and the Banking System
2021
Nowadays society is profoundly changed by technology, velocity and productivity. While individuals are not yet prepared for holographic connection with banks or financial institutions, other innovative technologies have been adopted. Lately, a new world has been launched, personalized and adapted to reality. It has emerged and started to govern almost all daily activities due to the five key elements that are foundations of the technology: machine to machine (M2M), internet of things (IoT), big data, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI). Competitive innovations are now on the market, helping with the connection between investors and borrowers—notably crowdfunding and peer-to-pe…
UML Artefacts for a Blockchain-enabled Platform for Fairtrade
2021
Fairtrade-certified products have successfully entered the mainstream distribution channels mostly in developed countries, and these products are now sold in famous supermarket chains. Nonetheless, the packaging and labeling of products as “Fairtrade” commands premium pricing in the marketplace. How much of this, however, is valid and justified? Despite the reputable certification mechanisms for quality assurance, mass media reports suggest that much of the “surplus value” goes to the accreditation agencies themselves instead of the producers. This article proposes an agenda to set this right with a blockchain platform that provides “trust-free” assurances of verifiable labeling. Using an A…
An Efficient and Privacy-Preserving Blockchain-Based Authentication Scheme for Low Earth Orbit Satellite Assisted Internet of Things
2022
Recently, integrating satellite networks (e.g. Low-earth-orbit satellite constellation) into the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem has emerged as a potential paradigm to provide more reliable, ubiquitous and seamless network services. The LEO satellite networks serves as a key enabler to transform the connectivity across industries and geographical border. Despite the convenience brought from the LEO satellite networks, it arises security concerns, in which the essential one is to secure the communication between the IoT devices and the LEO satellite network. However, some challenges inheriting from the LEO satellite networks need to be considered : 1) the dynamic topology; 2) the resource…
