Isolated Systems

The markets around transport and mobility are undergoing significant changes. One of the central drivers for these changes is the deployment of information and communications technology throughout the transport system, which in turn enables a wide range of smart mobility services. At the moment, however, smart mobility services are rather fragmented and work in isolated silos. A key issue in future development is how these isolated systems will become interconnected and in general more open. In this article, we apply the framework introduced by Ali-Vehmas and Casey (2012) to model how the evolution toward an open value system for smart mobility services could occur in Finland. In particular, we apply analogies from the emergence of GSM-based mobile networks and the Internet where the former has followed a more centralized path and the latter a more decentralized path.1

AbstractThis paper seeks to understand the role of the Internet and information and communications technology (ICT) in potential democratic movements. We propose an ecological model of technological development and democratization which recognizes that change can occur (1) at individual as well as social levels; (2) on a continuum from oppression to freedom; and (3) in multiple social spheres. Using case studies from China, we suggest that ICT might facilitate democracy on account of its potential transformations and efficiencies in terms of individuals’ relationships to knowledge and information; governments; persons, groups, and nongovernmental organizations; and work and traditional social roles.

This article explores changing discursive practices on the implications of the continuous development of the Internet and information and communications technology (ICTs) within the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland. The article argues that the development of the Internet and new media technologies has been accompanied by the proliferation of a set of influential and widespread discursive formations on the character of institutional communication and practice in a digital era. These developments have motivated an increasing technologization of discourse within the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland that has chiefly involved a conscious redesign of its discursive practices vis-à-vis the Internet and ICTs in accordance with new criteria of communication effectivity and a notable new emphasis on training in these new practices.

Proliferation of the internet by multiple devices has led to dramatic increases in network traffic.  The Internet medium has also been growing with this usage, but this fast growth has also resulted in new threats making networks vulnerable to intruders and attackers or malicious users. This has made network security an important factor due to excessive usage of ICT (Information and Communications Technology) as threats to IVTs has also grown manifold. Securing data is a major issue, especially when they are transmitted across open networks. IDSs (Intrusion Detection Systems)  are methods or techniques or algorithm which cater to detection of intrusions while on transit. IDSs are useful in identifying harmful operations. Secure automated threat detection and prevention is a more effective procedure to reduce workloads of monitors by scanning the network, server functions and inform monitors on suspicious activity. IDSs monitor systems continually in the angle of threat. This paper’s proposed technique detects suspicious activities using AI (Artificial Intelligence) and analyzes networks concurrently for defense from harmful activities. The proposed algorithm’s experimental results conducted on the UNSW_NB15_training-set shows good performances in terms of accuracy clocking above 96%.

AbstractOur day-to-day needs are greatly dependent on information and communications technology (ICT)—as represented by the Internet. Knowledge about culture is no exception. This paper focuses on the availability of digital cultural information about India on the Web. We aim to answer three questions: How is Indian culture represented on the Web? How are Indian cultural heritage sites being used? Who is using the sites? The study also examines the usability of these sites, and whether they are maintained. Content, ranking, and users’ age groups are the three criteria on which this analysis has been based.
