Chapter 5 introduces the logic of filtering as the conceptual framework underpinning the noise resonance of sound media. On the basis of the analysis of the noise of sound media developed in the previous chapters, it shows how this logic does away with the idea that technical media should ideally leave no trace of what occurs between sender and receiver. It thereby denounces the fallacy that the reproduction is an incomplete version of some “original.” Instead of taking the input or output of the transmission as the primary point of reference, the logic of filtering emphasizes the crucial importance of all the physical processes that happen in between. By acknowledging that the noise of sound media inherently shapes the sound of recorded music, it thereby shows how the noise resonance of sound media ultimately precipitated the emergence of a new, media technological musical sensibility: an “other music.”

This study develops a conceptual framework for applying social networks in usual CRM models. Recent changing in customer relationship theme and putting new media and network-based paradigm into practice makes it imperative to find how social networks affect CRMs. Accordingly, this study explains the role of social networks in customer relationship management by using its analysis, tools and aspects of this concepts based on CRM models. We have provided a SCRM framework that is based on usual CRM models and incorporates Social networks and its tools, methods and analysis. The framework is combination of Social networks concept and traditional CRM concepts.

UK fashion micro-enterprises, often founded by creative individuals, need to be entrepreneurially oriented and develop a business model that sustains their growth during the critical early phase. Literature on this phase offers guidance in best practice and survival strategies for the operational challenges that emerge, however the business models that sustain enterprise development and provide the blueprint for growth strategies have not been examined. This chapter explores how micro-enterprises integrate entrepreneurial actions into their business models. By applying literature on best practice in fashion designer businesses and entrepreneurial orientation (EO) to the business model concept, a conceptual framework is developed and serves as a point of reference to analyse the current business models of five micro-enterprises. The study finds that business models in this segment of the fashion sector are asymmetrical and EO emerges in some components of the business model and not others.

The tools of Web 2.0 and its culture of open collaboration offer a number of new opportunities to individuals, communities and governments. At first glance, many of these opportunities appear to lend themselves to fostering socially inclusive practices, and the report of the Government 2.0 Taskforce in 2009 certainly claimed this. However, while there has been much discussion of social inclusion in policy terms, there has been little consideration of what it means in practice, and no evidence to link the efficacy of new media in enhancing that practice. We develop a conceptual framework to account for the practice of social inclusion, drawing on recent developments in media theory focused on the themes of hospitality and listening. This framework is used to analyse the government's Social Inclusion website and the online forum. Our analysis suggests new media may offer the potential for new opportunities for social inclusion, but there are a number of factors militating against these opportunities being taken up to good effect.

AbstractThe digital economy has brought about multi-sided platforms as superior configurations for value co-creation. However, the academic discourse on platforms is scattered across academic disciplines—including management, information systems, and economics. Based on a systematic literature review of 140 papers from nine disciplines, we inductively develop a framework that provides a conceptual point of reference for conducting boundary-spanning research on digital multi-sided platforms. Systematizing the identified concepts, we introduce three layers of abstraction: conceptualizing platforms as information systems, as systems for actor engagement, or as ecosystems. Our framework conceptualizes digital multi-sided platforms as nested hierarchies of systems that are shaped by, and in interaction with, their environment. This view focuses on designing IT artifacts, governance mechanisms, and strategies for platforms in terms of how they interact with their environment. Practitioners can use our insights to analyze, design, and manage platforms aimed at establishing a sustainable competitive advantage.

There is a crucial importance for the country in the diverse participation of. Being aware of the potential of interaction of individual, community and the society, thus with a help of civic education facilitating the development of individual's civic competence. However, for basing the pedagogical activities of the formation of citizenship on the primary stage, it is necessary to develop a model of civic competence. Summarizing and analysing a number of theoretical approaches, using theoretical methods of research and being aware of the curriculum regulatory framework in the publication, developed model of civic competences is provided for the further discussion. Thus, through civic education and assuming the developed model of civic competences, young people's civic knowledge, responsibility, civic skills and capacity to participate in decision-making processes can be contributed.

Abstract This article addresses the largely unexplored relationship between Stein's literary innovations and the new sound media of her time. By examining these connections, this article looks at Stein's compositional techniques—in particular her concept of the continuous present and her lifelong interest in speech and dialogue—to examine how new media technologies intersected with her attempt to change the way writing was written, read, and heard. By focusing on sound, and looking specifically at her final work Brewsie and Willie (1946), this article reads Stein's innovative poetics against the backdrop of concurrent changes to audio technologies during her career. Finally, the article argues that by paying attention to the ongoing shifts in media ecologies in relation to modernist innovations, we might gain insight into the larger phenomenological and sensorial sphere that formed the backdrop to modernism.

AbstractAccurately scaling Langmuir turbulence (LT) in the ocean surface boundary layer (OSBL) is critical for improving ocean, weather, and climate models. The physical processes by which the structure of LT depends on surface waves’ Stokes drift decay length scale are examined. An idealized model for OSBL turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) provides a conceptual framework with three physical processes: TKE transport, dissipation, and production by the Craik–Leibovich (CL) vortex force (VF) associated with the Stokes drift shear. TKE profiles depend on OSBL depth h, surface roughness length z0, and wavenumber k through the nondimensional parameters kh and kz0. These parameters determine the rate and length scale for the dissipation of TKE produced by the CL-VF. For kz0 ≫ 1, TKE input by the CL-VF is governed by a surface flux with TKE rapidly decaying with depth. Only for kz0 < 1 can TKE penetrate deeper into the OSBL, with the TKE penetration depth controlled by kh. Turbulence-resolving large-eddy simulation results support this conceptual framework and indicate that the dominant Langmuir cell size scales with (kh)−1. Within the depth of dominant Langmuir cells, TKE dissipation is approximately balanced by CL-VF production. Shorter waves contribute less to deeper vertical velocity variance 〈w2〉 because the CL-VF is less effective in generating larger-scale LT. Depth-averaged 〈w2〉 scales with a modified Langmuir number Laϕ = (u*/usϕ)1/2, where u* denotes the water-side surface friction velocity and usϕ is a depth-integrated weighted Stokes drift shear or, equivalently, a spectrally filtered surface Stokes drift.
