Abstract:
The human being is commonly considered as being the weakest link in information security. Subsequently, as information is one of the most critical assets in an organization today, it is essential that the human element is considered in deployments of information security countermeasures. However, the human element is often neglected in this regard. Consequently, many criminals are now targeting the user directly to obtain sensitive information instead of spending days or even months trying to hack through systems. Some criminals are targeting users by utilizing various social engineering techn

Abstract:
Effective educational agents should accomplish four essential goals during a student's learning process: 1) monitor engagement, 2) re-engage when appropriate, 3) teach novel tasks, and 4) improve retention. In this dissertation, we focus on all of these objectives through use of a teaching device (computer, tablet, or virtual reality game) and a robotic educational agent. We begin by developing and validating an engagement model based on the interactions between the student and the teaching device. This model uses time, performance, and/or eye gaze to determine the student's level of engagemen

Abstract:
The field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) has suggested various methods for evaluating systems in order to improve their usability and User eXperience (UX). The advent of Web 2.0 has allowed the development of applications marked by collaboration, communication and interaction among their users in a way and on a scale never seen before. Social Systems (SS) (e.g. Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, LinkedIn etc.) are examples of such applications and have features such as: frequent exchange of messages, spontaneity and expression of feelings.

Understanding human behavioural signals is one of the key ingredients of an effective human-human and human-computer interaction (HCI). In such respect, non verbal communication plays a key role and is composed by a variety of modalities acting jointly to convey a common message.

Gaze behaviour makes no exception, being one of the most common, yet unobtrusive ways of communicating.

The aim of this research is two-folded. On the one hand, it attempts to assist employers of Catalan micro-retailers in designing, implementing and developing their Social Media strategy as a complementary channel of communication. On the other hand, it attempts to contribute to the research community with a better understanding on both which building block of the micro-retailer¿s Business Model is more influenced by the customer level of interaction by means of the Social Media and how a transformation can be observed in the micro-retailers¿ Business Models as a result of the Social Med

Abstract:
Every day, humans are involved in social situations and interplays, with the goal of sharing emotions and thoughts, establishing relationships with or acting on other human beings. These interactions are possible thanks to what is called social intelligence, which is the ability to express and recognize social signals produced during the interactions. These signals aid the information exchange and are expressed through verbal and non-verbal behavioral cues, such as facial expressions, gestures, body pose or prosody. Recently, many works have demonstrated that social signals can be captu

Abstract:
Social insects represent the most widespread group of organisms on the Earth. The understanding of the ecology of social insects, such as social wasps must not disregard from the study of their microbial communities. In this thesis, I have treated the microbial symbioses developed in social wasps under different points of view and in different conditions. Concerning the first task, I investigated how the gut microbial communities (bacteria and fungi) switch during the hornet ontogenetic development (from juvanile to adult life stages), and this phenomenon was studied in the invasive alien spec

Abstract:
This thesis, focusing on the reasons beyond immediate terrorist and criminal events, studies ‘how’ and ‘why’ terrorist organizations (TOs) and organized crime groups (OCGs) act, react and evolve. It adopts a ‘criminality oriented approach’ that puts discrete pieces of terrorism under a microscopic examination and explains terrorist learning of criminality: how tacit knowledge required for terror tactics and organized crime is processed and saved in the secret domains of TOs and OCGs and how the knowledge is accessed and learned by other illegal organizations. Using Akers’ social learning theor

Abstract:
Cette thèse a pour objet d'examiner l'incidence de situations provoquant des émotions sur les comportements d'affiliation et d'isolement et les conséquences de ceux-ci sur le ressenti des individus et leurs relations à autrui. Onze études regroupées en sept recherches permettent ainsi de discuter (a) du rôle de la similarité dans les comportements grégaires, (b) de l'impact de la tonalité des émotions ressenties sur les comportements affiliatifs, (c) du caractère strictement personnel ou plus social des émotions subjectives et de l'effet du comportement émis sur le ressenti émotionnel et (d) d
