Interactive Multimedia


Book Description

Interactive multimedia is clearly a field of fundamental research, social, educational and economical importance, as it combines multiple disciplines for the development of multimedia systems that are capable to sense the environment and dynamically process, edit, adjust or generate new content. For this purpose, ideas, theories, methodologies and inventions are combined in order to form novel applications and systems. This book presents novel scientific research, proven methodologies and interdisciplinary case studies that exhibit advances under Interfaces and Interaction, Interactive Multimedia Learning, Teaching and Competence Diagnosis Systems, Interactive TV, Film and Multimedia Production and Video Processing. The chapters selected for this volume offer new perspectives in terms of strategies, tested practices and solutions that, beyond describing the state-of-the-art, may be utilised as a solid basis for the development of new interactive systems and applications.




Encyclopedia of Business Analytics and Optimization


Book Description

As the age of Big Data emerges, it becomes necessary to take the five dimensions of Big Data- volume, variety, velocity, volatility, and veracity- and focus these dimensions towards one critical emphasis - value.

Nordic Contributions in IS Research


Book Description

This book contains the refereed proceedings of the Second Scandinavian Conference on Information Systems (SCIS), held in Turku, Finland, in August 2011. Inspired by the fact that Turku is the cultural capital of Europe in 2011, SCIS invited contributions that address the cultural impact of the latest technologies, e.g., social software, or that target cross-cultural issues of the IT profession itself. The resulting selection of papers in this volume reflects these topics. The 10 papers accepted were presented in one single track and cover topics such as the usage of social media platforms, the socio-economic consequences of novel technologies in application areas like healthcare or energy industries, and cultural differences in software development and maintenance.




Information and Cyber Security


Book Description

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Information Security, ISSA 2020, which was supposed to be held in Pretoria, South Africa, in August 2020, but it was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 10 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. The papers deal with topics such as authentication; access control; digital (cyber) forensics; cyber security; mobile and wireless security; privacy-preserving protocols; authorization; trust frameworks; security requirements; formal security models; malware and its mitigation; intrusion detection systems; social engineering; operating systems security; browser security; denial-of-service attacks; vulnerability management; file system security; firewalls; Web protocol security; digital rights management; and distributed systems security.
