We are witnessing the emergence of an information and communication technology (ICT)-enabled platform capitalism in which traditional corporations are being displaced. Railing against traditional firms to rescue capitalism would, under these circumstances, seem like misdirected effort. The “working anarchies” (e.g. Uber, Wikipedia) and “pop-up firms” (e.g. Vizio) of this new world use “labor on demand.” Here too there is risk that platform owners exploit their power and become rapacious. Yet, ICT can enable platform capitalism to create community-based, locally controlled alternatives to corporations and states. Cooperatives and democratic software platforms (e.g. Linux) must be important business forms in the future.

Relation between e-Government and social media is an inseparable relationship. The purpose of e-Government who wants to improve public services, with the help of information and communication technology. The best solution is using social media. In Indonesia, e-Government is a concept that is implemented not only by the central government, but also by regional/local governments. Right now, many local governments in Indonesia already implemented e-Government. However, not all of Indonesia local governments that implemented egovernment have a social media-based e-Government application. There is a chance that a certain city/regency at Indonesia using same social media-based e-Government application. If the application is seen in terms of features, each application also has different features combination, which are the strengths and the uniqueness of each application. In this study, there are 9 applications that examined from 9 cities / regency in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to analyse the relation between e-government and social media, in terms of using social media features and identified features that exist in each e-Government application that examined from 9 cities / regency in Indonesia with Systematic Literature Review. The feature found will be categorized with feature functionality categorization: Identity, Conversations, Sharing, Presence, Relationships, Reputation, and Groups. Each feature found can be having more than 1 feature functionality. The result of this study can be used as an indicator about features available at social media-based e-Government application and this study can be used to be a comparison or references for making another social media-based e-Government application in the future

The Relationship

The 21st Century has observed an increase transformation based on economy and social patterns. The challenging of education is now prepared for the future, not for the present. The changing environment of learning is related to competencies and skills rather than in particular subjects and theories. How to teach what is not present yet? Why education must be profoundly related to both Information and Communication Technology and human ethnic? This paper is dedicated to highlight some of these points, bringing some reflections regarding these topics about the relationship between Africa and Latin America, especially Brazil.

Access Information

This article is intended to see the future existence of the institution of information center and library as an institution that will continue to exist even if the information could be found by the community easily through the development of information and communication technology. In the present, people can access information through any approach in the world's information network known as the internet. Moreover, if in the future the ability of people to choose the type of information needed better. Therefore it becomes a matter as how the prospect of information center and library in the development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). By exploring the Information Science and Library as a fundamental branch of science, both seen from ontology, epistemology, and axiology is expected to know the basics of the prospects of information centers and libraries. The things that the information center and library should do will be seen through this assessment so that it will provide very useful inputs.

Cloud computing is a new trend of information and communication technology that enables resource distribution and sharing at a large scale. The Cloud consists of a collection of virtual machine that promise to provision on-demand computational and storage resources when needed. End-users can access these resources via the Internet and have to pay only for their usage. Scheduling of scientific workflow applications on the Cloud is a challenging problem that has been the focus of many researchers for many years. In this work, we propose a novel algorithm for workflow scheduling that is derived from the Opposition-based Differential Evolution method. This algorithm does not only ensure fast convergence but it also averts getting trapped into local extrema. Our CloudSim-based simulations show that our algorithm is superior to its predecessors. Moreover, the deviation of its solution from the optimal one is negligible.

The stance taken in this chapter is that globalization has become pervasive in every country, and K-20 education can no longer be separated from its influence. The challenge for all educators is to acknowledge both positive and negative influences of globalization on K-20 education, attempt to neutralise the negative influences and optimise any of the benefits of globalization for improved student learning. Looking to the future, globally inspired developments in information and communication technology will increase the likelihood of the influence of globalization on K-20 education becoming even more profound.
