Abstract:
The development of the World Wide Web in the 1990s has brought about various technological advancements in Information and Communication Technology (ICT), which provides fast-growing web solutions (Gough, 2010). One of these web innovations is the emergence and growth of Web 2.0 technology. Web 2.0 Technology with different web sites allows users to create, generate, and share information online. However, its application has been tagged as a critical disruptive technology in education with electronic learning or e-learning. The emergence of Web 2.0 technology is the start of the more complicated innovation in the teaching-learning process. It is the second generation of the World Wide Web. Hence, the paper describes the level of awareness and extent of utilization of Web 2.0 technology of young teachers in Catholic Schools in Antique during the school year 2019-2020 in terms of sex and ICT training. Likewise, it explores the relationship existing between the teachers' demographics and their awareness and extent of utilization. Also, it determines the correlation among awareness and utilization of Web 2.0 technology of young teachers.

Abstract:
Common specification of data promotes data exchange among many and unspecified individuals and organizations. However, standardization itself tends to discourage innovation that can create new uses of data. To overcome this dilemma of innovation and standardization, this paper analyzes and proposes hypotheses regarding the process through which the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has realized innovations such as web applications by updating the standard. I hypothesize the following changes in standardization process management at the W3C as key factors supporting innovation through standardization among stakeholders with conflicting interests: (1) defining the scope of the specifications to be developed according to functions instead of technical structures; (2) design of a development management policy based on feedback from implementations, referred to as an “implementation-oriented policy”; (3) inclusion of diversified stakeholders in open standardization processes that facilitate consensus formation and the diffusion of developed standards; and (4) adopting a royalty-free to encourage third-party developers to implement proposed specifications and advance update of proposals. This single case analysis leads to the development and diffusion of common technological data specifications, which are the driving factors for innovation utilizing big data generated by exchanging data of various origins.

Abstract:
This study analyzes the interaction between sensor research and technology and different types of cancer (breast, lung, colorectal, and prostate) with the goal of detecting new directions for improving diagnosis and therapeutics in medicine. This study develops an approach to computational scientometrics based on data from the Web of Science from the 1991 to 2021 period. The results of this analysis show the vital role of biosensors and electrochemical biosensors applied in breast cancer, lung cancer, and prostate cancer research. Instead, scientific research of optical sensors is developing main technological trajectories in breast, prostate, and colorectal cancer for improving diagnostics. Finally, oxygen sensor research has a main technological development in breast and lung cancer for new applications in breath analysis directed to treatment processes. Preliminary results presented here clearly illustrate the evolutionary paths of sensor research and technologies that have great potential for developing incremental and radical innovations in cancer diagnosis and therapies. These conclusions are, of course, tentative. There is a need for much more detailed research based on other aspects and factors for detecting stable technological trajectories that can foster the technology transfer of new sensor in cancer research for improving diagnosis and therapeutics, reducing, whenever possible, world-wide mortality of cancer in society.JEL Classification: I10, O30, O31, O32; O33.

Abstract:
The rapid spread of Information Technology (IT) in recent years and the role it plays in many aspects of our lives has not left language use untouched. A manifestation of this role is the degree of linguistic creativity that has accompanied technological innovation. In English, this creativity is seen in the semantic relabeling of established terms such as web, bug, virus, firewall, etc. Another strategy favored by IT lexifiers is the use of lexical items clustered in heavy premodifying groups, as in random access memory, disk operating system, central processing unit, and countless others (White, 1999). In brief, IT technology – and in particular, the World Wide Web – has made it possible for users to break free of many linguistic codes and conventions (Lemke, 1999).For the linguist, the happy outcome of the spread of IT is that it has created an opportunity to analyze the simultaneous development of technology and the language that encodes it and the influence of one on the other (Stubbs, 1997). To linguists of a broadly functional disposition, this is a chance to confirm the observation that scientific language differs substantially from everyday language. More importantly, it is also a chance to verify the claim made chiefly by Halliday & Martin (1993) that this difference in the characteristics of each of these discourses stems from a radical difference between scientific and common sense construals of the world around us.

Abstract:
Aim. The presented study aims to develop conceptual approaches to the formation of infrastructure for the innovative transformation of entrepreneurship in the digital economy, which would make it possible to optimize the management system of regional economic entities aimed at creating a favorable climate for the generation, development, and implementation of innovations in the Russian socioeconomic system.Tasks. The authors analyze conceptual approaches to the formation of a system of infrastructural support for the innovative transformation of business structures based on a comprehensive analysis of the parameters of its subsystems; substantiate priority directions for the development of regional infrastructure with a view to ensuring sustainable operation of economic entities; propose scenarios for the formation of regional infrastructure based on digital technologies for the transformation of innovation activities of companies.Methods. This study is based on the classical corporate life cycle theory, which includes mechanisms and organizational structures that facilitate the sustainable development of business structures in the digital economy. Theoretical and practical recommendations for innovation management and system analysis of the formation of competitive advantages of regional economic entities are used with allowance for current trends in the world economy and geopolitical risks.Results. Infrastructure support for the innovative transformation of business structures in the digital economy should allow for the reloading of the logistical, technological, financial, economic, informational, personnel, and communication units of the company’s integrated functioning system. Digital technologies transform system-wide, strategic, marketing, information, and communication methods of development and implementation of management decisions within regional socio-economic systems.Conclusions. Infrastructure support for the innovative transformation of business structures largely depends on the use of digital methods that allow for the implementation of information and communication platforms making it possible to optimize the organizational management structures of companies. The effectiveness of innovative transformation can be increased by accelerating and simplifying business processes; increasing the level of transparency and reliability of procedures performed on the web and implemented in business applications; structural transformations of forms of interaction with customers based on modern interfaces and access to complete information about consumer preferences; ensuring the availability of services provided on a cloud platform; achieving a high level of security of the knowledge base. Digital technologies have made the effectiveness of company management more dependent on the parameters of economic security and indicators of the quality of the information and communication infrastructure used at all stages of the functioning of the regional socio-economic system. Business communications in the global market of goods and services are accelerating and simplifying.

Abstract:
To ensure competitiveness in the face of accelerating scientific and technological progress and the digitalisation of socio-economic processes the modern industrial companies should not be limited to internal environment during the process of search and implementation of innovative solutions. These enterprises are conducting an active search for new solutions in the open market and attracting external experts, using the communication potential of the World Wide Web. This model which called as «open innovation», has gained in popularity. Its use leads to the inevitable transformation of the existing business processes in the enterprise, one of which is the procurement process. Open innovation become a new stage in the development of the logistic function, already passed the way from the technical supply function to the procurement division gained the status of one of the key centers of cross-functional and inter-firm interaction on industrial enterprise. An important prerequisite for the success of open innovation, implemented jointly with our suppliers is the availability of long-term partnerships. The further evolution of the procurement function within the model of open innovation should lead to the integration of the procurement division to the acquisition of the results of intellectual activity, not only as a commercial service in company but as the operator of system of knowledge management and network crowd sourcing platform providing information and expert support to take management decisions on those or other innovative solutions offered by external suppliers. The formation of expert community is intended to reduce the risks associated with the procurement of obsolete intangible assets and the illegal use of the results of intellectual activity.

Abstract:
Five years have passed since Helen R. Tibbo and Lokman I. Meho conducted their study exploring how well six Web search engines retrieved electronic finding aids based on phrase and word searches of terms taken directly from the finding aids. This study similarly seeks to discover how well current search engines Google, Yahoo! Search, MSN Search, AOL Search, Excite, and Ask Jeeves retrieved finding aids chosen at random from 25 North American primary source repositories. In March 2005, approximately 27% of repositories listed at the “Repositories of Primary Resources” web site had at least four full finding aids online, a substantial increase from 8% in 2000. This study affirmed phrase searches yielding better retrieval results than word searches. Encouragingly, the retrieval rates for phrase and word searches within electronic finding aids were approximately 20% higher than Tibbo and Meho’s findings despite the existence of several billion more World Wide Web pages in 2005.

Abstract:
Community members benefit from the opportunities and services that are provided by park and recreation departments. As technology has continued to improve, it has begun to influence some of the services and programs offered by park and recreation departments. This study presents information regarding World Wide Web use in parks and recreation departments in 1998. The study surveyed those park and recreation departments who were members of the National Recreation and Parks Association's Great Lakes Region in 1998. A total of 419 departments were included in the study. These 419 departments were grouped into three population categories (Under 15,000; 15,000-49,999; 50,000 and above). A survey return rate of 58% was achieved. Survey respondents were asked to list current and future uses of the World Wide Web in their departments by program and by activity. Respondents were also asked to identify why they were or were not using the web. The study also examined if there were differences between agency size and World Wide Web use, agency size and the number of computers used, and agency size and the number of computer specialists employed. Recreation professionals can use this study to identify whether their department would benefit from World Wide Web use. The information can assist in identifying strengths and weaknesses of the web in the recreation profession and in departments similar to their own.

Abstract:
In the Information Age, Corporate America needs to realize that the most efficient and effective organizations are often the ones that are good at accessing, processing and retrieving vital information. American manufacturing design activities, which were responsible for developing and/or maintaining engineering documents, has come to realize the need for the latest technology for the dissemination of engineering documentation. However, at the same time, it is necessary to protect this information without compromising its accessibility and integrity. The ability to expeditiously retrieve engineering documents is important for maintaining America's position in global competition and by the armed forces for America's security. Yet, these paper-intensive organizations have had great difficulties in storing and using engineering documents. As the volume of data generated continued to climb, organizations are finding that accessibility to their information is decreasing. Traditional methods for the delivery of engineering documents has created numerous problems ranging from the inability to find, use and update engineering documents to errors, unnecessary expenditures, and untimely delays in the shipment of critical equipment. Internet retrieval of documents offers manufacturing design organizations a highly cost effective approach towards rectification. In this study, the researcher analyzed what had been the conventional approaches of engineering documents' storage and retrieval and what actions America design activities were taking to achieve change. The development and key aspects of the Web (World Wide Web) are discussed. Six case studies are described and analyzed: three involving traditional EDMS (engineering document management systems) and three involving different Internet approaches. In this study, a proposed methodology was developed using the Web to implement a multi-manufacturer technological mall that allowed secure access and delivery of manufacturers' solicitations and engineering documentation.

Abstract:
La complexité de l'environnement dans lequel évoluent les organisations se traduit par la coexistence permanente d'interprétations multiples et contradictoires de la situation. Perturbées dans leurs capacités de décision et d'action, les organisations déploient des dispositifs sophistiqués de vigilance collective qui permettent de faire face à cette complexité, restaurant leur capacité à dégager du sens et à orienter leur action. La gestion de l'information en fait partie. Parmi toutes les sources disponibles, internet en général, et le web en particulier, constituent les principaux points d'accès à l’information, faisant désormais partie intégrante de ces processus de création de sens. L'évolution récente du paysage informationnel, tant du point de vue des outils que de celui des pratiques, suscite de nouveaux défis. Par leur facilité d’utilisation et leur accessibilité croissante, de nouveaux types de sources en ligne ont remis en question la façon dont les utilisateurs partagent, consomment et produisent du contenu. 

Cette thèse examine la remise en cause des processus habituels de vigilance collective, et en particulier celle de l'adaptation, chez les spécialistes de l'information, des stratégies d'évaluation de la qualité de l'information provenant des sources en ligne. La question de recherche mobilise trois éléments principaux :les professionnels de la gestion de l'information, l'évaluation de la qualité de l'information et l'évolution du paysage informationnel, qu'on appelle communément le Web 2.0. Pour répondre à cette question, une enquête de terrain a été menée auprès de 53 professionnels de la gestion de l'information en Belgique, entre novembre 2007 et juillet 2008. En l'absence de bases théoriques stables et largement acceptées, un cadre conceptuel spécifique a été développé pour assurer l'adéquation entre les éléments de la question de recherche et le dispositif. Ce cadre conceptuel a permis de faire la lumière sur ces éléments. Le recours à une approche sociopsychologique a permis de les articuler, notamment par emprunt aux travaux de Karl Weick et au concept de sensemaking. 

La gestion de l'information (GI), considérée comme un processus de vigilance collective, est un concept générique, comprenant les activités de surveillance, de veille ou encore d'intelligence (économique, stratégique, compétitive, etc.).

Sa conceptualisation, construite par une analyse de définitions des principaux termes qui lui sont associés, a mis en évidence l'importance de son rôle de médiateur d'information dans l'organisation, qui s'articule autour des étapes récurrentes de collecte, de traitement et de distribution de l'information. Le recours au concept d'organizational learning a permis de dépasser les approches purement mécaniques, mettant en évidence sa capacité à créer du de sens. 

C'est au coeur de cette médiation, à l'intersection de la collecte et du traitement de l'information, qu'intervient un autre type de sensemaking: l'évaluation de la qualité de l'information. Elle est envisagée comme un processus de réduction de l'ambiguïté, dont l'action permet la sélection (ou non) d'une source ou d'une information dans la suite de la médiation. La qualité de l'information est abordée sous l'angle de l'information seeking qui permet de faire la lumière sur cette création de sens. Elle est généralement traitée dans la littérature en termes de pertinence, de crédibilité ou de fitness for use. Des études de terrain et des contributions émanant des praticiens ont permis de mettre en évidence les attributs et les critères de la qualité qui peuvent être mobilisés pour construire un jugement de qualité des sources en ligne. Dans le cadre de l'enquête de terrain, une check-list composée de 72 critères renvoyant à 9 attributs a été choisie comme cadre de référence pour l'observer: les objectifs de la source, sa couverture, son autorité et sa réputation, sa précision, sa mise à jour, son accessibilité, sa présentation, sa facilité d'utilisation et sa comparaison avec d'autres sources. 

 

Pour pouvoir mettre en évidence de manière concrète les aspects du paysage informationnel en transformation, une analyse des définitions et descriptions du Web 2.0 a permis de construire une description morphologique qui reprend ses caractéristiques principales. Il peut ainsi être considéré comme un ensemble d'outils, de pratiques et de tendances. Les outils permettent d'identifier cinq types de sources qui lui sont spécifiques: les blogs, les wikis, les podcasts, les plates-formes de partage de fichiers et les sites de réseaux sociaux. Ces types de sources sont éclairés dans cette recherche sous l'angle du concept de genre et, ensemble, sont positionnés en tant que répertoire, qu'il est nécessaire de comparer avec celui des genres "classiques" de sources en ligne. 

L'examen du changement des stratégies d'évaluation de la qualité de l'information a été concrétisé à l'aide d'un questionnaire administré par téléphone, qui visait à croiser les critères de qualité de la liste choisie comme référence avec les cinq genres typiques du Web 2.0. C'est l'importance relative accordée à un critère pour évaluer une information qui a été choisie comme indicateur à observer. Les répondants ont été invités à indiquer s'ils considèrent que l'importance des critères "change" ("≠") ou "ne change pas" ("=") quand ils évaluent un de ces genres, en comparaison de celle qu'ils accorderaient à un genre classique de source en ligne. En cas de changement, le questionnaire a prévu la possibilité de noter s'il s'agissait d'une hausse (">") ou d'une baisse ("<") d'importance. Pour compléter ce dispositif, 14 entretiens semi-dirigés en face à face ont été menés avec des répondants à ce questionnaire, de manière à pouvoir saisir les éléments explicatifs de leurs réponses. 

L'analyse des données a montré qu'une majorité des réponses (57% de "=") indiquent que l'importance des critères d'évaluation ne change pas quand une information est mise à disposition par l'intermédiaire d'un genre Web 2.0, plutôt que par celui d'un genre classique de source en ligne. Pourtant, cela implique que 43% des critères changent d'une manière ou d'une autre. C'est sur base de ce constat que cette recherche soutient l'existence d'un changement perçu qui, s'il ne remet pas fondamentalement en cause le processus de jugement de qualité, suscite néanmoins une adaptation de ce dernier par les professionnels de la GI interrogés. La lecture des données à l'aide de variables secondaires a montré notamment une forte disparité des distributions de réponses entre les répondants; ce qui plaide en faveur du caractère subjectif, personnel et dépendant du contexte du processus d'évaluation. De même, elle a permis de déterminer l'existence de deux groupes d'attributs qui se différencient par le fait que le premier comporte des attributs liés au contenu de la source (les objectifs, l'autorité, la précision, etc.) alors que le second est composé d'attributs liés à la forme (présentation, facilité, etc.).

Les entretiens de la seconde phase de l'enquête ont permis d'affiner l'analyse en éclairant, d'une part, sur la nature du changement et, d'autre part, sur les raisons de celui-ci. Les répondants ont indiqué que fondamentalement le processus d'évaluation est identique quel que soit le répertoire envisagé. Ils admettent toutefois que les genres typiques du Web 2.0 peuvent être à l'origine d'une perte de repères. Elle s'explique par la perception d'une familiarité moins grande à l'égard des sources et se traduit par une perte de la confiance qu'ils accordent aux sources et à leur jugement. Le changement perçu se manifeste donc par une hausse d'importance de certains attributs, qui aide les répondants à restaurer cette confiance. L'élément explicatif de ce changement peut être considéré comme un flou dans les modalités de création de contenu. Ce flou comporte trois dimensions: la façon dont est créé le contenu (How?), l'identité de celui qui le crée (Who?) et sa nature (What?). Ces dimensions peuvent être synthétisées par l'idée selon laquelle n'importe qui peut publier n'importe quoi. 

Les entretiens approfondis confirment que les groupes d'attributs liés au contenu d'une part, et ceux liés à la forme d'autre part, sont bien des éléments explicatifs de la manière dont se manifeste le changement.  Dans le cas des attributs qui augmentent d'importance, les raisons invoquées renvoient au fait que la facilité de création de contenu à l'aide de ces genres permet à "n'importe qui" de créer du contenu. C'est pour cette raison que l'autorité et les objectifs de la source peuvent faire l'objet d'une attention plus forte que sur les genres classiques de sources en ligne. Le fait que n'importe qui puisse publier "n'importe quoi" renvoie à la nature du contenu créé par ces genres. Il est considéré comme dynamique, personnel, indicateur de tendances, source de signaux faibles, subjectifs, etc. Cela pousse les répondants qui sont sensibles à ces questions à remettre plus sérieusement en cause la précision par exemple. C'est aussi en raison de la facilité de création de contenu, et du fait que les outils du Web 2.0 réduisent la responsabilité de l'auteur dans la qualité de la conception de sa source, que des attributs de forme, quand ils changent d'importance, voient leur niveau baisser. Le second groupe a été signalé par les répondants comme étant davantage des indicateurs de sérieux et des arbitres dans leur processus d'évaluation.

Que ce soit pour discuter des divergences de vue entre répondants ou pour déterminer les spécificités des genres, il apparaît qu'un aspect capital de la qualité de l'information tient à sa capacité à répondre aux besoins du moment, le fitness for use. Cette notion est intimement liée à celle de pertinence et toutes deux ont été résolument présentées comme déterminantes dans les stratégies, à la fois du point de vue du jugement d'une information ponctuelle, que dans l'attitude face à aux sources en général. Dans tous les cas, c'est d'abord les besoins d'information qui guident le choix. Toutes observations permettent d'apporter une réponse claire, riche et nuancée à la question de recherche.

This research discusses the mashup practice, particularly the one of web applications, while own aesthetics, that translates a contemporary sensibility, reflex of the remix culture of which emerges. Copy, cut or paste are now intrinsic actions to the daily of the cyberspace, where the recombination of information is evidenced as usual practice. In this context, how to identify and relate the mashup aesthetics? Such scenery incites the further study concerning mashups, in search to trace a descending and contemporary overview by means of investigation and identification of its origin, structure and practical in the digital medium. To debate these issues was accomplished a historical redemption, in order to present the concepts and artistic movements precursors relative to its essence. The mashup comprehension advances in scope of the remix sphere. The issues referring to collaboration, interaction and authorship, as well as the conceptualization of the practical, based on the malleability of the binary code and the transposition between a medium to another one; will be sustained from the studies of Lev Manovich and Eduardo Navas. Thus, the analysis of the structure and functioning of mashups applications in the digital medium, demarcated by means of the considerations from Duane Merrill, consists in better assimilation to these reflections, since specifies the technological characteristics that define them. In intention to reorganize the several mashups models found in the net, it makes mapping inspired on Merrill s classification, however, propose own categories; supported in case studies made through the analysis of web sites that use the technique. With effect, it verifies that the mashup process former, based on combination of one or more sources for formation of something new, is the same adopted in different periods, in other words, is not entirely innovative; varies only the form of employment applied, in the relationship of the predecessors concepts to the technology and emerging medias. Finally, it emphasizes the importance of the proposed classification for mashups mapping in the revelation of organic categories, that allow thus to illustrate the fluid movements of associations and inter-relationships characteristic of its organization, in an accurate portrait of the universe of unlimited possibilities of imbrication in which they inhabit
Esta pesquisa discute a prática mashup, particularmente a de aplicativos web, enquanto estética própria, que traduz uma sensibilidade contemporânea, reflexo da cultura remix da qual emerge. Copiar, cortar ou colar agora são ações intrínsecas ao cotidiano do ciberespaço, em que a recombinação da informação evidencia-se como prática usual. Nesse contexto, como identificar e relacionar a estética do mashup? Tal cenário incita a um estudo mais aprofundado acerca dos mashups, em busca de traçar um panorama descendente e contemporâneo mediante investigação e identificação de sua origem, estrutura e prática no meio digital. Para debater estas questões foi realizado um resgate histórico, a fim de apresentar os conceitos e movimentos artísticos precursores relativos à sua essência. A compreensão de mashup avança no âmbito da esfera remix. As questões referentes à colaboração, interação e autoria, assim como a conceitualização da prática, fundamentada na maleabilidade do código binário e da transposição entre um meio a outro; sustentam-se a partir dos estudos de Lev Manovich e Eduardo Navas. Desse modo, a análise da estrutura e funcionamento dos mashups de aplicativos no meio digital, demarcada por meio das considerações de Duane Merril, consiste em melhor assimilação a estas reflexões, visto que especifica as características tecnológicas que os definem. No intuito de reorganizar os vários modelos de mashups encontrados na rede, efetua-se mapeamento inspirado na classificação de Merril, entretanto, propõem-se categorias próprias; amparadas em estudos de casos efetuados através da análise de web sites que se utilizam da técnica. Com efeito, constata-se que o processo formador do mashup, baseado na combinação de uma ou mais fontes para formação de algo novo, é o mesmo adotado nos diferentes períodos, ou seja, não é totalmente inovador; varia-se apenas a forma de emprego aplicada, no relacionamento dos conceitos antecessores à tecnologia e mídias emergentes. Por fim, ressalta-se a importância da classificação proposta para o mapeamento dos mashups na revelação de categorias orgânicas , que permitem assim ilustrar os movimentos fluidos de associações e inter-relações característicos de sua organização, num retrato acurado do universo de possibilidades ilimitadas de imbricamentos em que habitam

Abstract:
AbstractThe origins and evolution of instructional technology and instructional design are treated in this chapter as separate concepts, although having intertwined histories. As with other technologies, their origins can be traced to the scientific discoveries on which they are based. Early in the twentieth century, new discoveries in optics and electricity stimulated educators to the adoption of technological innovations such as projected still pictures, motion pictures, and audio recording. Individuals and, later, groups of affiliated professionals promoted enriching learning by adding visual and, later, audiovisual resources where verbal presentations previously dominated. As radio broadcasting grew in the 1930s and then television in the 1950s, these mass media were perceived as ways to reach audiences, in and out of school, with educative audiovisual programs. In the 1960s, the wave of interest in teaching machines incorporating behaviorist psychological technology engendered a shift in identity from audiovisual technologies to all technologies, including psychological ones. As computers became ubiquitous in the 1990s, they became the dominant delivery system, due to their interactive capabilities. With the global spread of the World Wide Web after 1995, networked computers took on communication functions as well as storage and processing functions, giving new momentum to distance education. Meanwhile, research during and after World War II prompted a technology of planning – systems analysis. In the 1960s, educators adapted the systems approach to instructional planning, starting the development of instructional systems design (ISD). Since the 1980s, ISD has been the reigning paradigm for instructional design, while instructional design has become the central activity of instructional technology professionals.

Abstract:
Technological change is a fundamental element of modernity, and an exploration of modern Hinduism must take seriously the role of technology in religious transformation. While the nineteenth century saw the introduction of the printing press as a new tool for mass mobilization, the Internet has become the technological platform for religious innovation and transformation since the last decade of the twentieth century. This chapter gives an introduction to the topic of Hinduism online. It starts by giving a brief overview of the short history of Hinduism online, with the first movements and temples establishing a presence on the World Wide Web from the mid-1990s. Focusing on the core concept of pūjā, the chapter argues that online Hinduism and the wider Hindu tradition are so closely linked that it makes little sense to see the online and the offline as separate realms. In fact, online Hinduism is an integral part of contemporary Hinduism, and the Internet has already spurred interesting questions and dilemmas of theology and religious authority in the Hindu tradition and will certainly continue to do so.

The opener features the two Steves (Jobs and Wozniak) and the advent of the Apple II and even more influential Macintosh, even as the IBM PC and its clones dominated the personal computer market. Widespread adoption of the Internet opened the door to e-tailing in which Amazon has emerged as the ultimate engine of consumerism. Curiously, Jeff Bezos has modeled his retailing empire on the empire he threatens—Wal-Mart. From Sam Walton he adopted the idea of low prices, satisfying customer experiences, and technological innovation.

Abstract:
In “Electronic Constitution: A Braudelian Perspective”, Francesco Amoretti presents a model for the analysis of time and space structures of digital networks based on the braudelian triad of times: structure, conjuncture and event. Taking the incipit by a short description of this tri-partition, he proposes a historical method to frame the products of innovation processes such as the Internet in their wider socio-economical context. He thus argues that the world wide Web (WWW), with its enormous quantity of easy-accessible and easy-produced information, is just the evenementielle of a historical process that could represent a new conjuncture, with its own dynamics and phases based on the structure of capitalist world system. The thesis at the base of this work is that Internet, rather than being a revolutionary technology that will subvert the current organization of social and economic production, is a technological instruments that gives to institutions and organizations a way to re-organize their assets and processes in order to start a new conjuncture of capitalistic structures. Most of the authors and scholars debating the transformative power of the Internet have up to day focused their attention on the WWW as the locus of a democratising and participative movement that take the technology in service of civil society. With this chapter Amoretti shed light on the character of continuity that the Internet has regarding such traditional categories of political economy as hierarchy and institutional enforcement.

Abstract:
Since the first ideation of the World Innovation Stock Exchange in 2015, the business landscape has drastically changed. The world witnessed the introduction the Metaverse as the pioneer of cyber-parallel worlds. Societies endured a global pandemic and the subsequent socio-economic crises of unprecedented force. All happened under an ambient banalization of individual entrepreneurship as a shaping capacity with increasing impact power on the Collective (physical, cultural, and digital society). Under the phenomena of globalization and financialization, the contribution to knowledge and innovation is becoming more and more organic, since citizens themselves endorse an entrepreneurial proactiveness in tackling challenges of varied scale. The contemporary global technologic and social disruptions are changing the game of innovation management. Emerging and existing technologies of the Industrialisation 4.0 not only provide a platform to the digital world, but also augment it, thereby augmenting the impact a sole individual, a simple organization, or a remote business can have in innovating globally. Moreover, global crises have accelerated both the already occurring evolution of work-places & work-practices, and the capacity stakeholders have in endorsing collectively and holacratically projects to solve commonly faced challenges. More than ever before, the digital world enables to collaboratively develop, control and monetise one another’s Innovation. The diversity in stakeholder’s collaboration is a consequence of these structural changes. Indeed, it is no longer surprising that eminent businessmen now collaborate individually with start-up incubators, celebrities partner with social enterprises, and eminent scholars pair up with MNCs to come up with developmental programs. Above the previously mentioned technological, social, and economic disruptions, a superseding revolution has occurred. One that is structurally reshaping individual and social relationships to knowledge and knowledge management: the democratisation of intellectual capital. Nowadays, anyone connected to the web can collaborate and expose its ideas formally or informally on a variety of social media and professional platforms. The number of innovators with unique profiles, in age, geographic location, and social status has sprung. The power of metaverstic-like processes in knowledge management relies on its democratic nature, inclusively welcoming a diversity of profiles and ideas. How to take sporadic ideas and contributions internationally, expressed on a web platform, and instantaneously match them, ideally structure them, and coordinate their protagonists’ actions to pursue them? How to facilitate and incentivise the evolution idea-innovation? How to optimally take ideas on a page to a lifechanging service? Since innovation management is becoming gamified, the is an evident need to develop Metaverstic project management tools that encompasses not only AI-facilitated holacratic teaming, but also blockchained project management in all its phases (from ideation to market launch), while taking into account the critical component of innovation monetisation. In 2015, the World Innovation Stock Exchange already set the bases of such Metaverstic platform of innovation management: this Exchange structures the meeting of the minds, just as any financial stock exchange does, while following the Shared Values principles. To extend on the premises of this novel Exchange, this paper describes in detail how a component of the W.ISE will have to be developed, namely the World Innovation Stock Exchange Democratic Incubator (WISE-DI). It describes how it operates conceptually and to which extent it answers structural guidelines to practically develop this W.ISE. It addresses the critical notion of Innovation tokenization with the MarkPoints cryptocurrency, the securitization of project management via the W.ISE blockchain, and the monetization of the launched-to-market innovations in the real economy*. The ultimate benefit of the W.ISE-DI platform relies on both its smart structuring capacity and user-friendly/ interactive interface, which enable to manage intellectual contribution ownership and incentivise R&D collective financing.

Abstract:
Abstract Our webs are wide, very thin, two-dimensional, continua arising commonly as a material in transport in machine systems. Though they are thin, webs often require modeling as plates or shells, albeit very thin and flexible ones, because even small bending stiffness distinguishes their behaviors from membranes in critical ways. Technological applications generating interest in web mechanics include the manufacture and handling of paper where wide sheets are transported by rollers at the highest possible speed, thereby maximizing productivity. Material handling problems of a similar type also arise with tissues, films, magnetic media, textiles, fabrics, polymer sheets, and the like. In a technical world pressing for ever higher speeds of stable transport, the web instabilities of wrinkling and flutter commonly bound the productivity of a technological process. These instabilities can result in permanent damage or rupture of the material and disruption of the manufacturing process. Consequently, the presentation today addresses some findings on webs that relate to their modeling, the prediction and causes of wrinkling, and the effect of roller misalignment on web behavior during transport. To allow us to maintain this focus, the rich collection of works on membrane structures, including modeling of inflated membranes, space structures and fiber reinforced membranes will not be part of our discussion. For attention to interesting membrane developments readers might examine Reissner (1938), Steigmann and Pipkin (1989), Jenkins and Leonard (1991), Li and Steigmann (1993), and Haseganu and Steigmann (1994). The most important topic of web flutter caused by air flows over the web surfaces will not be addressed, though recent experimental findings can be found in Chang and Moretti (1992) and Nguyen (1993). Theories modeling the flow and web in these coupled problems tend to underestimate the flutter speeds. This problem area is one of great importance.

One of the aims of Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin) is to create graduates who problem solve as socially responsible global citizens. We wanted to provide an opportunity for our students to address relevant, marketing and consumption challenges in new and innovative ways, and to develop analytical competences and professional skills and comportment in a real-life context. This paper describes the design, implementation and outcome of an inter-disciplinary and cross-programme ‘authentic assessment’ method which we have termed a ‘live case analysis’. The assessment comprised fieldwork, wider industry engagement, formative assessment components and a summative presentation. The method is discussed against the backdrop of a Curriculum Framework project which is underpinned by four design principles which centre around innovation, application, collaboration and flexibility. The performance of real-world tasks such as live case analysis strongly reflects the central pedagogical values of what, where and how people will learn at TU Dublin in the future.

Abstract:
Rapid social, political, geographic and economic changes in the world, linked to technological revolution of the last century are followed by wide positive and negative changes in people lives and R&amp;I processes (open markets, digitalisation, resource scarcity, poverty, etc.). Looking for solutions for a better future, the EU policy agenda for 2030 promotes actions which foster co-creation of innovations, targets sustainability and Sustainable Development Goals. As such, EU regions are motivated to enhance and capitalise local competences and resources to achieve a social impact and tackle glocal challenges more effectively. Such reinforcement of local development is possible applying interdisciplinarity in R&amp;I processes, through the co-design of innovation by different stakeholders and the empowerment of informal innovation actors. This article presents a methodological framework applied to the co-creation of innovation involving local stakeholders in the Madonie region in Sicily, the results gained and the role of the intermediate body – a Competence Cell responsible for facilitation of such collaboration. This process has been implemented in the frame of the Horizon 2020 FoTRRIS project.

Abstract:
Over the last couple decades, the engineering world has seen a steady increase in collaboration and knowledge sharing through predominantly web-based means. Facilitated by a growing number of tools that allow for data and knowledge to be easily transferred, the technological landscape that organizations operate in is completely different than even a couple years ago. Specifically for engineering design, mainstream tools such as email, forums and wikis have been researched in both a professional sense as well as in design education. The following paper looks to build off these studies by identifying and studying the wide range of tools that engineering students utilize on their own accord to collaborate and progress towards finishing a design project. Specifically, mechanical and industrial engineering students enrolled in introductory design courses at Oregon State University and Humboldt State University were observed, interviewed and surveyed regarding these topics. The following will outline the findings from this study, with hopes that this work can help others in the design education field better understand and make better use of the tools that students prefer to use. Also, as the next generation of engineers moves onto professional careers, the ability of engineering firms to understand how the younger generation collaborates and communicates will be important in shaping how engineering firms efficiently utilize new web-based tools in engineering design.

Abstract:
In a globalized world, characterized by the interdependence of the world’s economies, cultures and populations and therefore requiring a shared means of communication, English has obtained the status of the lingua fran­ca in both academic and business contexts and it has been extensively used in scientific, economic and political fields. Consequently, English has become essential for the entire workforce whose career prospects on the labor mar­ket are largely dependent on their English language proficiency, the ability to communicate effectively and overcome language and cultural barriers. Being spoken by over one billion people, English is used in a wide range of settings such as international business, diplomacy, science, technology, ed­ucation, travel and entertainment. The status of English as an international language and its impact on the improvement of career prospects have re­sulted in enormous development of English for Specific Purposes (ESP), an approach primarily focusing on developing learners’ communicative compe­tence in specific professional fields such as business and economics, science, medicine, technology, tourism, social studies, etc. Business English (BE), as a branch of ESP, implies teaching specialized vocabulary and different skills en­abling learners to effectively communicate in a business environment. However, major technological and scientific advances in the last few decades and the age of the knowledge-based economy in which we now live have caused society and the business environment to be changing rapidly. As a re­sult, employers are looking for skills that go beyond academic qualifications and work experience, and match the requirements of the current age. These skills, variously labeled and frequently referred to as the 21st-century skills, comprise communication, critical thinking and problem solving, teamwork, creativity and innovation, decision making, digital literacy, leadership, etc. The aim of this paper is to explore how the 21st-century skills can be integrat­ed and developed in the Business English classroom at tertiary education level since the traditionally taught skills such as giving opinions, negotiating, par­ticipating in meetings, reporting, making arrangements, telephoning and so­cializing in business contexts, no longer seem to meet the requirements of the current age and the contemporary labor market. Business English courses at the university level can significantly contribute to developing these skills and thus prepare students for their future careers.

Abstract:
Abstract The world wide web has become the most cardinal and salient source of information, for which in today's technological era, web pages are incessantly being utilized to broadcast pernicious activity over the web. Hence, the perpetual technological advancements have enthralled cybercriminals to easily exploit the web environment by embedding malicious code on these web pages which permits oblivious and innocent users into becoming victims by visiting these harmful pages with a click of a button. Such detrimental and malicious web pages are created by cyber-attackers to promote and host viruses and exploit frauds, attacks, and scams. Consequently, within an organization, emails containing Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) cause a considerable amount of risk towards an organization as these links become instrumental in terms of giving systematic control to the cyber-attackers. There is a critical need of filtering employees’ incoming emails in accordance with the maliciousness of the URL to protect the web environment users from such threats. Accordingly, the premier objective of this proposed paper is to constructively classify and detect malicious URLs while utilizing a machine learning based approach. This will lead towards sufficiently decreasing the number of URL-based attacks that may target organizations via email, protecting the users of the web from phishing, scam, defacement, and malware web attacks. Hence, the conceptualization behind the proposed AI framework is to construct a multi-classification model to effectively thwart and protect organizations from detrimental and malicious web-based attacks by classifying a URL as either a defacement, benign, malware, spam, or a phishing-based URL. The general framework for the proposed malicious URL detection system is illustratively displayed in Figure 1.

Abstract:
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have introduced main changes in the dissemination and treatment of the statistical information, also affecting the teaching and learning methods. The universities must currently face the challenge of ensuring that technological innovation really serves education, adapting their degrees and teaching methods to the new social demands and making an efficient use of the ICT facilities. These requirements are especially clear in the field of Statistics, where the access to Internet statistical servers and the availability of statistical software provide a wide spread of teaching resources. However, the election of a suitable sofware for teaching purposes is not easy, especially in the case of the introductory courses, where professional applications does not seem to be adequate. Since we have also detected some important objections related to the use of spreadsheets, we have developed the software ADE+ as an easy–to-use didactical tool organized in three different areas (a text editor, a spreadsheet-like data table and an object container) allowing a comprehensive treatment of the statistical information. Our experience with ADE+ has proved to be satisfactory for students and teachers in both presential and virtual education. In the case of presential courses, computer-assisted sessions are periodically organized, dividing the classgroup into small workteams. Although these sessions are supervised by a profesor, the active participation of students and the group interaction is highly encouraged. After some years of presential experience, we have developed the ADE+ website, (http://www.aulanet.uniovi.es/ade+) which has proved to be extremely useful, allowing the students to download updated versions of this software and providing an on-line user guide and some example workfiles. A new step of this experience started with the implementation of the online course “Economic Data Analysis” included as a free-election subject in AulaNet, (virtual campus of the University of Oviedo) and also in the Shared Virtual Campus of the so-called G9 Group of universities. The practical contents of this course are fully based on the ADE+ software, including solved problems and proposed exercises. Since the subject aims to give a realistic view of economic information, most of the practical material is based on actual data, extracted from some well- known statistical servers such as the Spanish Statistical Institute (http://www.ine.es), United Nations (http://www.un.org), or the World Bank (http://www.worldbank.org). An outstanding characteristic of “Economic Data Analysis” is the online examination, where ADE+ plays a main role. To end, we must stress that the use of ADE+ in both presential and virtual courses has lead to satisfactory results according not only to the academic results but also to the teachers and students opinions. The practical contents and the software ADE+ have obtained high average punctuations together with low Pearsons coefficients, confirming the representativeness of these answers.

Abstract:
On October 30th 2009, a major industrial consortium initiated the so-called DESERTEC project which aims at providing by 2050 15% of the European electricity from renewable energy sources in North Africa, while at the same time securing energy, water, income and employment for this region. In the heart of this concept are solar thermal power plants which can provide affordable, reliable and dispatchable electricity. While this technology has been known for about 100 years, new developments and market introduction programs have recently triggered world-wide activities leading to the present project pipeline of 8.5 GW and 42 billion Euro. To become competitive with mid-load electricity from conventional power plants within the next 10–15 years, mass production of components, increased plant size and planning/operating experience will be accompanied by technological innovations which are presently in the development or even demonstration stage. The scale of construction, the high temperatures and the naturally transient operation provide formidable challenges for academic and industrial R&D. Experimental and theoretical research involving all mechanisms of heat transfer and fluid flow is required together with large-scale demonstration to resolve the combined challenges of performance and cost.
