Mobile Voices is a project that developed a mobile blogging platform through participatory design with low-wage immigrants in Los Angeles. The project aimed to give immigrants a way to share their stories and represent their voices while also involving them in the technology design process. Researchers collaborated with an immigrant advocacy group and day laborers to hold workshops where participants tested the platform, identified issues, and helped make design decisions. The process aimed to empower participants and create a more relevant and effective communication system but also faced challenges around technical skills, time commitment, and privacy concerns.

Digital divide lecture
This document discusses the digital divide and digital commons. The digital divide refers to the discrepancy in access to and ability to use new technologies like the Internet between those who can and cannot. It has dimensions of social exclusion through which people are detached from societal organizations and resources. Access is divided along lines of infrastructure, affordability, knowledge, quality, and usage which disproportionately impact marginalized groups. The digital commons refers to the creation and sharing of open technologies for democratic and accessible use, like open-source initiatives and public access through libraries. Whether technology leads to greater divides or commons depends on factors like power relations, inequalities, and ownership.
Interdisciplinary Internet Research - Workshop at IR10
Early-stage research questions in socio-technical internet research, interest areas and possible theoretical cornerstones - in preparation for a workshop in the context of IR10 - Association of Internet Researchers, Annual Meeting 2009.
Rethinking academic publishing through multimedia scholarship
Cheryl Ball presented this talk to the Digital Humanities Group at the College of William & Mary. She details how the field of digital writing studies has fostered the scholarly, social, and technical infrastructures that allow for the mentoring of scholars producing digital work. Ball then explains how this infrastructure is the backbone of the journal Kairos and how the Vega academic publishing system will bring that infrastructure to other academic publishers.

Citizen science projects address important issues like biodiversity loss, pollution, and climate change. Four studies on citizen science volunteer motivation found that:
1) Initial participation is often self-motivated, while continued involvement requires feedback from scientists;
2) Gamification can motivate different age groups, but tasks and guidance must match experiences; and
3) Positive corrective feedback improves contributions more than simple thanks.
4) Crowdsourcing design garnered useful feedback from engaged stakeholders, while technology needs to be intuitive and support data collection.
The digital, social, open and networked scholar
The document discusses the digital, social, open, and networked scholar. It describes how digital scholarship uses digital media for scholarly communication and research on digital media. Social scholarship combines traditional scholarship with social Internet practices like openness, collaboration, and sharing. Open scholars make their work publicly accessible and invite ongoing feedback. The document addresses barriers to adopting these approaches in developing regions, like infrastructure issues, and how harnessing social media could help researchers disseminate their work more widely.
Internet studies
Talk for OII MSc Students on the interdisciplinary field of Internet Studies, and some of the major issues surrounding its history and future.
Ferrier research agenda-2016
This document provides an overview of Dr. Michelle Ferrier's background and research interests. It discusses her work in media innovation through various startups. Her research focuses on three main areas: 1) The Media Deserts Project which maps areas lacking access to news/information using GIS tools; 2) Media entrepreneurship and creating pathways for innovation; 3) Addressing online harassment through her work on TrollBusters using natural language processing. The document highlights increasing layoffs in the newspaper industry and growing rates of online harassment experienced by women journalists as motivations for her research agenda.
Johnsoncritique1
This document summarizes a qualitative research study that examined student and staff perceptions of information and communication technologies at a university. The study explored what technologies students and staff used in everyday life and education, the perceived benefits and limitations of these technologies in higher education, and whether a "digital divide" existed between these groups. The findings showed no significant differences between faculty and staff views of technologies' benefits and limitations for instruction. The study implies that universal technology access on campus may reduce the impacts of digital divides. However, the research had limitations such as a small sample size and inconsistencies in data collection.

one more tool
This document discusses the implications of introducing "one more tool" to dispersed learning communities. It analyzes two case studies where an additional technology was incorporated: video recordings in a global public health community of practice, and a specialized platform for peer counseling in a higher education distance learning community. The key findings are that a new tool interacts with and can impact the community's practice, domain, and social relationships in complex ways, such as changing whose voices are heard, influencing power dynamics, and reshaping boundaries. Introducing a tool requires carefully considering these broader implications beyond just features and usability.
Aera2014 sampling
This document summarizes the findings of a study that analyzed 102 studies focused on social presence and online learning. The study found that most of the research was published in journals (73%) rather than dissertations (23%). Graduate students made up the largest proportion of subjects (55%). Sample sizes tended to be small, with 13% having 10 or fewer students and the median being 43 students. The document calls for future research to spend more time justifying sampling methods, study more diverse groups and contexts, and share more dissertation research through publication.

James Robson - Digital and Online Ethnography
James Robson - Digital and Online EthnographyThe Learning and New Technologies Group, Department of Education, Oxford University
This document outlines a proposed digital ethnography of Religious Education teachers' engagement in online social spaces. It discusses researching how teachers' professional identities are performed and constructed online and how this is influenced by institutions and interest groups. The researcher proposes observing online forums and social media over a year, conducting interviews, and analyzing related literature. Challenges discussed include defining online and offline field sites, negotiating participation, and balancing involvement while maintaining analytical distance. Data would be collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires and analyzed using qualitative methods.Digital Ethnography: New Ways of Knowing Ourselves and Our Culture
Presentation given at the Web 2.0 Expo in New York on Nov 11, 2009.
Online advertisers and web analysts are awash in a sea of data: pageviews, CPMs sold, subscriptions, sentiment, friends, fans, click-through rates, comments, posts, re-tweets… These metrics are great at identifying the “Who?” and “What?” of online behavior but they often leave out the “How?”, “Where?”, and “Why?”.
Unlike traditional market research, ethnography uses observation to focus on what people do, not on what they say they do. Ethnography communicates a social story, pulling the audience into the daily lives of the respondents. Despite the introduction of new technologies like social media, humans are still telling the same, vivid stories, just in different ways.
Changing Teaching Practices for Technology: Using the SAMR Model for Technolo...
1) The document discusses using the SAMR model to integrate technology into social work courses and assignments focused on social justice.
2) The SAMR model defines four levels of technology adoption from substitution to redefinition. Participants will learn to apply this model to develop social justice assignments using digital technologies.
3) Examples provided include transforming a literature review assignment into a blog post, wiki entry, or video or podcast. A role-playing assignment could be recorded as a video rather than performed live.
Bodle research
Robert Bodle's research focuses on the social and political implications of emerging social media and information technologies. Specifically, he examines privacy issues related to data sharing across social media platforms and how social networks can uphold inclusive and development-oriented societies. He teaches a course on using social media for activism and civic engagement. For service, he chairs social media committees and facilitates workshops on topics like blended learning and Second Life. He also volunteers with organizations helping the homeless and promoting public transportation.
Digital Divide
The document discusses the digital divide, defined as unequal access to computers and the internet. It presents data showing gaps between demographic groups in areas like home computer ownership, internet use, and access in schools. Specifically, people of color and those from low-income backgrounds often have less access. The document also examines how educational software and teaching styles can unintentionally favor boys over girls. This can contribute to the underrepresentation of women in computer science fields. Addressing these inequities could help reduce gaps in the digital divide.

Interrogating the Politics and Performativity of Web Archiving
Presentation on my PhD research given at the Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2016 Doctoral Consortium, Rutgers University, June 19, 2016.
Lxp2altc2008
The document discusses findings from several JISC Learner Experience Phase I studies from 2005-2006. It found that learners were overwhelmingly positive about accessing supplementary course information online and making regular use of online resources. However, they were critical of inconsistent use of online resources. It also found that learners frequently used search engines to quickly find information on topics and relied on electronic resources to support or contradict their initial understandings. Additionally, it observed distinct patterns of technology use among learners that corresponded with factors like age, year of study, learning community involvement, and perceptions of technology.

PhD research project (information behavior version) as presented in NORSLIS 2010, November 2010 in Riga, Latvia.Ganito, C. Action
This document summarizes a research project on digital inclusion and participation. The project aims to understand user access and use of digital media, promote comparative research and education, and provide insights to industries and policymakers. It examines topics like media use, gender differences, and how immigrants use digital media. The researchers have conducted qualitative interviews and are analyzing the gender-based differences in people's life trajectories and technology use. Preliminary results suggest women often have less education but interest in digital tools, and that mobile phones and public access spaces are particularly important for older women to stay connected.

Civic Technologies: Research, Practice, and Open Challenges
This position paper discusses governing data assets from platform labor as a commons. It notes that digital workers currently lack power due to an inability to unionize and firms enclosing data about worker activity. The paper proposes using civic technology to facilitate collective action by workers. Specifically, it suggests converting enclosed platform data back into a common-pool resource for workers to access, in order to mitigate power asymmetries between firms and workers. Key questions discussed include learning from precedents for converting enclosed goods to commons, and how to create sustainable governance models for shared worker data through civic platforms using participatory design principles.

Interactive dynamic security assessment of Android and iOS applications.
Solving Mobile app CTF challenges.
Reverse engineering and runtime analysis of Mobile malware.
How to shift left and integrate MobSF/mobsfscan SAST and DAST in your build pipeline.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

For the full video of this presentation, please visit: https://www.edge-ai-vision.com/2024/06/temporal-event-neural-networks-a-more-efficient-alternative-to-the-transformer-a-presentation-from-brainchip/
Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
