Abstract:

<p> Internet of Things (‘IoT’) systems are complex, asynchronous solutions often comprised of various software and hardware components developed in isolation of each other. These components function with different degrees of reliability and performance over an inherently unreliable network, the Internet. Many IoT systems are developed within silos that do not provide the ability to communicate or be interoperable with other systems and platforms. Literature exists on how these systems should be designed, how they should interoperate, and how they could be improved, but practice doe

Abstract:

<p> The research topic of this study is the impact of consumer security awareness on the adoption of the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things (IoT) is the emerging network of Internet connected smart devices. Several authors have predicted that adoption of the IoT will be hindered if security issues are not addressed. Other authors have noted that users often trade security and privacy for convenience. To better understand these two points of view, the main research question of this study is: to what extent does consumer security awareness impact adoption of the Internet of Things. To ad

Abstract:

The present study reports a questionnaire-and interview-based survey into computer and Internet technologies and their use in intermediate and secondary schools for boys in Saudi Arabia. Teacher and student questionnaires were developed to collect data from respondents on their assessment of computer and Internet facilities in their schools and the extent of the usage they made of them. Additionally, data were sought on teacher and student computer and Internet skills, how they had acquired these and on whether they had access to a computer and the Internet at home.

<p> Research has shown that the cost of information security (IS) breaches to organizations has been estimated to be in the billions of dollars.

Researchers concur and further add that end users' behaviors contribute to internal security breaches in organizations, and that these behaviors include employee negligence and non-compliance with policies. Research has also shown that individuals' self-efficacy to strengthen information security efforts starts at

Abstract:

The ways people go online have been transformed by the emergence of new mobile Internet technologies. As modes of Internet access are becoming increasingly diverse, this thesis sets out to examine how various forms of access shape engagement with online resources. Inequalities in Internet access have been neglected in the "second-level digital divide" research, which has focused on differences in skills and usage. Thus, I argue that inequalities of access have to be revisited and their role in digital inclusion reassessed. To study individuals' arrangements of Internet-enabled devices and loca

Twenty-thousand years ago, the earliest known depictions of natural forms were inscribed by primitive man onto the surface of the "third wall" . . . be it cave, grotto, overhang, or alcove. Today the myriad representations of our natural world, along with the expanding cosmic narratives of 'natural history' that animate and describe such characters within an ornate epistemological framework (part-science: evolution, thermodynamics, ecology, and part-social criticism: environmental justice, sustainability, conservation) proliferate in ever-increasing mobile permutations; not only in our textboo

Abstract:

The World Wide Web (WWW) has become a major source of easily accessible information for students, professionals, researchers and the general public. However, the volume of information available through the Web is so overwhelming that it is not unusual to get tens of thousands of "hits" when conducting a relatively simple search. Most existing search techniques use brute force based on keyword matches to find related Web pages. While the enormous speed of search engines improves the efficiency of such methods, effectiveness is not improved. The objective of this thesis is to construct and t

Using dialectical theory, social exchange theory, social information processing theory, and the hyperpersonal perspective as theoretical frameworks, this study used quantitative and qualitative analyses to identity potential effects of CMC on relationships.

Abstract:

Today there exist no standardized payment solution for performing micropayments between Internet of Things (IoT) devices. This study was conducted to examine whether Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) could be suitable as a micropayment solution for IoT. Also, a more general demand for a scalable micropayment solution was examined, along with its potential. A qualitative study was performed by first conducting eight unstructured interviews regarding the subjects DLT and IoT, to be used as a complement to the literature research. Then, one unstructured and five semi-structured interviews were

Thesis (MEd)--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2018.<br>This study investigates some of the factors affecting the adoption and use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) for curriculum delivery in selected private high schools in the Western Cape. In this 21st century, ICT has penetrated the society to the point that it is most likely to assume that the private high school in general, are effectively incorporating them (ICTs) in delivery of the curriculum. Regrettably, this assumption is not always true as revealed in most of the cases examined in this study. Instead, a l

Abstract:

The info1mation society marks a shift from the dominance of the industrial to the rise of the "informational" (Castells, 1996, p. 21 ). The effects of this shift on social arrangements generally have been greeted in diverse ways, ranging from the enthusiasm of Negroponte (1995) to the more cautious scepticism of Postman (1992). While recognised as an inevitable and ongoing process, the wider social imperatives for change have brought people and technology together in ways that are often highly problematic. Older people, as one group among others identified as experiencing the disadvantage in t

Abstract:

Improvements in technology and the Internet have seen a rapid rise in the use of technology in various sectors such as medicine, the courts and banking. The conveyancing sector is also experiencing a similar revolution, with technology touted as able to improve the effectiveness of the land registration process. In some jurisdictions, such as New Zealand and Canada, the paper-based land registration system has been replaced with one in which creation, preparation, and lodgement of land title instruments are managed in a wholly electronic environment. In Australia, proposals for an electronic r
