CSCL for NGO's Cross cultural Virtual Teams in Africa: An Ethiopian Children Advocacy Case Study against Exclusion and toward Facilitation of Express…
2005
This exploratory pilot study shows that NGO's involved in Children Advocacy through Arts in Africa are willing to use a groupware, meaning a computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environment. Innovative ideas and best practices among NGOs would be shared easily worldwide. Little scientific information is available to help them make a sound choice. This study suggests that some NGOs based in Ethiopia/Africa have specific needs which should translate in specific context analysis and interface development: 1) an intercultural approach to creativity, arts and innovation, and 2) emphasis should be placed on tools to facilitate asynchronous systematic conception and sharing of intra an…
Experimental evaluation of privacy-preserving aggregation schemes on planetlab
2015
New pervasive technologies often reveal many sen- sitive information about users’ habits, seriously compromising the privacy and sometimes even the personal security of people. To cope with this problem, researchers have developed the idea of privacy-preserving data mining which refers to the possibility of releasing aggregate information about the data provided by multiple users, without any information leakage about individual data. These techniques have different privacy levels and communication costs, but all of them can suffer when some users’ data becomes inaccessible during the operation of the privacy preserving protocols. It is thus interesting to validate the applicability of such…
MSS: A Multi-Level Data Placement Scheme for Data Survival in Wireless Sensor Networks
2009
In recently popularized unattended wireless sensor networks, sensed data are stored locally or some designated nodes for a long term and retrieved sometime by collectors on demand. Such data may be delete or modified as sensor nodes are always exposed to risks such as random failure and mobile adversary. To maximize the data survival, we propose a secure and efficient scheme - MSS. MSS makes use of hopbounded computational secret sharing to achieve fault tolerance and compromise resilience, and takes advantages of multi-level secret sharing to mitigate communication overhead and improve overall security. MSS has the most advantages in terms of security and efficiency among presented schemes…
The Integration and Sharing of Resources for a New Quality of Living
2014
In questo capitolo, il tema della condivisione è trattato anche dal punto di vista giuridico attraverso una discussione caratterizzante il dibattito rilevante. Sono quindi approfondite le questioni inerenti le funzioni e la forma urbana. L’IT infatti può interagire con problemi operativi della città e con l’uso delle risorse ambientali (energia, suolo, acqua…), parametro indicativo su cui devono essere sviluppate le trasformazioni urbane. Come condividere gli spazi e le funzioni urbane costituisce la nuova frontiera nel campo dell’innovazione urbana. In this chapter, the issues of sharing of information and of information technologies use are dealt with from the juridical point of view, thr…
Learning Research Methods and Processes via Sharing Experience in a BLOG
2006
The goal is to increase knowledge about different research methods that have been employed in the information technology field by supporting the information exchange, collaboration, and cooperation between researchers. Well-designed, well-told stories can help others learn from past situations to respond more effectively in future situation. A blog is presented where PhD students and researchers are invited to collaborate by providing their stories, reading and commenting existing stories. This infrastructure allows researchers and PhD students to write the contents posing questions and finding answers on the relationship between research process and research results.
CoCoDat: a database system for organizing and selecting quantitative data on single neurons and neuronal microcircuitry.
2004
We present a novel database system for organizing and selecting quantitative experimental data on single neurons and neuronal microcircuitry that has proven useful for reference-keeping, experimental planning and computational modelling. Building on our previous experience with large neuroscientific databases, the system takes into account the diversity and method-dependence of single cell and microcircuitry data and provides tools for entering and retrieving published data without a priori interpretation or summarizing. Data representation is based on the framework suggested by biophysical theory and enables flexible combinations of data on membrane conductances, ionic and synaptic current…
Sharing Economy and Employment: What’s Next?
2018
The sharing economy is growing 20 times faster than was predicted. Travel, transportation, finance, are just few examples of sectors involved in collaborative economy. Labor market and employment have to face the challenges of sharing economy and for many years from now we will have to deal with the impact of this new trends. Innovative business models like Uber and AirBnb will change the landscape of job creation and will determine a demand for new skills.
플랫폼경제에서의 약자 보호
2021
Known by many names – platform, sharing, peer-to-peer (p2p), collaborative economy, and so on-entirely new business models have emerged in recent years, whereby online platforms use digital technologies to connect distinct groups of users in order to facilitate transactions for the exchange of assets and services. This dramatic shift in business organisation and market structure has opened an intense debate on the persisting need for those regulatory measures that typically protect the weaker party in bilateral business-to-consumer transactions. Widespread calls for a more " levelled playing field " makes a strong argument for reconsidering the scope of regulation and delegating regulatory …
COLLABORATIVE ECONOMY AS AN INDICATION OF SUSTAINABLE CONSUMPTION IN RESULTS OF EXAMINED PEOPLE
2017
Sustainable consumption takes inspiration from the newest trends in economics which is a collaborative economy. This type of economy changes the model of organization and distribution based on sharing, using and creating together. The basic aim of this study is pointing out a purpose of a collaborating economy in the accomplishment of sustained consumption rules and in a conscious and self-motivated limit of personal consumption to the purpose of co-sharing. This task is going to be achieved with empirical verification of consumers behavior based on answers to a questionnaire. Research has confirmed the suggested hypothesis. People want to attend in collaborative consumption, which is posit…
Future Development of an Energy-Efficient Electric Scooter Sharing System Based on a Stakeholder Analysis Method
2023
E-scooters as a new form of mobility are gaining more and more popularity. This popularity results from the flexibility of this mode of transport, but above all from the positive impact on the natural environment through the much higher energy efficiency of an e-scooter compared to a motor vehicle (according to the literature the rate is 2 km per kWh equivalent for a motor vehicle and the range is 90–100 km per kWh in the case of an e-scooter). This paper introduces a discussion on the future development of an energy-efficient electric scooter sharing system based on stakeholder analysis methods. The implementation of the e-scooter sharing system involves linking several areas of human acti…
