Abstract:

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) accelerates smart manufacturing and boosts production efficiency through heterogeneous industrial equipment, intelligent sensors, and actuators. The Industrial Internet of Things is transforming from a traditional factory model to a new manufacturing mode, which allows cross-domain data-sharing among multiple system departments to enable smart manufacturing. A complete industrial product comes from the combined efforts of many different departments. Therefore, secure and reliable cross-domain access control has become the key to ensuring the security of

Abstract:

AbstractUK government policy is firmly directed, through the agencies which control university and research funding, towards a situation in which much academic output will be made accessible to all on the Internet without payment. This has far-reaching consequences for all academic publishers, including the Society, by no means all of which have yet been taken into account by the policy-makers. Members of the Society need to understand the issues and to consider how best to adapt to changing circumstances and to defend its position where necessary.

Abstract:

An examination of the strategies of Packer's PBL, owner of Channel Nine and the Internet portal ninemsn, suggests that the commercial agenda of the mass media — and the quest for audiences — has translated into an attempt to control access gateways to the Internet. Strategic alliances with MSN and partners who can provide transaction-driven services, such as Ticketek and Schwab, are core elements to ‘channel’ users through the ninemsn portal. Its exemplary use of interactive capabilities to establish lasting links to Web users reflects a changing notion of audiences as active, globally connect

Abstract:

The ever ubiquitous spread of information and communication technology (ICT) has enabled an increasing number of youth access to the Internet leading to a rise of illegal downloading and hacking problems (Cyber Deviance). To date most criminological studies on illegal downloading or hacking have focused on college samples and have been confined to a single city or country. This study, using data from the second International Self-Report Delinquency Study (ISRD-2), examined illegal downloading and hacking perpetration among adolescents from 30 countries around the world.

Abstract:

Some fundamental behaviours of the current (and foreseeable) global internet do not fit well with the requirements for successful digital rights management (DRM) and for control of access to IP rights-protected content. This has implications for longer term development of regulation in the digital domain. This paper considers some of these behaviours from a broad and unashamedly biased perspective. For the purposes of this paper, it is assumed that effective digital rights management depends on being able to constrain people not to use the network for direct, rights management-avoiding purpose

At present, Internet of Things (IoT) networks are attracting much attention since they provide emerging opportunities and applications. In IoT networks, the asymmetric and symmetric studies on medical and biomedical video transmissions have become an interesting topic in both academic and industrial communities. Especially, the transmission process shows the characteristics of asymmetry: the symmetric video-encoding and -decoding processes become asymmetric (affected by modulation and demodulation) once a transmission error occurs. In such an asymmetric condition, the quality of service (QoS)

Abstract:

The attraction of the internet continues to grow, mobilising the attention of many users, and impressing especially adolescents globally. Whilst the internet has provided adolescents with many benefits, such as academic support; cross- cultural interactions; social support; and exposure to the world at large, there are serious risks associated with the internet. The parentsâ€™ role in this regard becomes pivotal in ensuring the safety of their children. The mechanisms used by parents in controlling their childrenâ€™s use and access to the internet were the focus of this study. For this reason,

IntroductionPsychedelics are substances consumed for recreational use, the majority of these psychoactive substances are illegal and hard to obtain. Therefore, there is a demand for psychedelics legal and easier to access, these types of drugs are called ‘legal highs’. LSA (lysergic acid amide) is one of these new psychoactive substances, this drug is searched because it is known to have an effect similar to LSD.

Background: Mental health during pregnancy is a global health problem, the percentage of pregnant women with antenatal anxiety or mood disorders ranges from 15% and 25%, with generalized anxiety disorder as the most common factor in the illness. Most of the research findings show a relationship between mothers’ psychological distress and poor prognosis for either the mother or the infant. Low well-being during pregnancy has significant adverse impacts on both mother and infant. Therefore, it is important to focus on antenatal anxiety and psychological stress in pregnant women.

Abstract Introduction: The internet has proven to be a valuable resource for self-care, allowing access to information and promoting interaction between professionals, caregivers, users of health care services and people interested in health information. However, recurring searches are often related to excessive health anxiety and a phenomenon known as cyberchondria can have impacts on physical and mental health. Within this background, a Cyberchondria Severity Scale has been developed to differentiate healthy and unhealthy behavior in internet searches for health information, based on the fol

This paper looks at the operation of telecommunications-specific competition regulation pursuant to the 1997 legislation, on the eve of a review of the 1997 legislation by the Productivity Commission. The central thesis is that the ‘brave new world’ created by the 1997 legislation, of industry self-regulation of terms and conditions of access to declared telecommunications services, has been an inhospitable land for new entrants. Neither the access nor the competitive conduct provisions have operated in the way intended by the policy-makers and anticipated by new entrants at the time of introd

Abstract:

Generation Z has been said to have more in common with their global generational cohort than they do with their parents. The 24/7 access to information, through increasingly ubiquitous Internet access, has been credited as the facilitator of the spread of generational values and characteristics. While this may apply to Generation Z in many developed countries, does it apply in developing nations such as Thailand? For example, by the year 2015, only 40 percent of the Thai population had access to the Internet. Thus, this study attempts to understand to what extent proclaimed Generation Z charac

In contrast to most previous studies, we attempt to control for unobserved individual heterogeneity by either using a fixed-effects method or identifying random non-users—Internet users who do not go online on a specific day.

This study used nationally representative cross-sectional survey data collected during the 2016 U.S. general election to investigate two online news behaviors.
