 Resumo Neste artigo busca-se investigar a cultura dos desenvolvedores de software livre, especialmente no que se refere à colaboração organizacional e produtiva e à inovação social. Discute-se a relação entre trabalho imaterial e produção colaborativa no desenvolvimento de software livre. Parte-se da principal característica do desenvolvimento de software com código fonte aberto: a colaboração produtiva. Ela implica no uso de saber vivo e na formação de uma intersubjetividade compartilhada. A comunicação mediada pela linguagem é base desta produção. Discute-se a relação entre produção colaborativa e inovação. A colaboração comunicativa amplia a interação entre produtores, abrindo maiores possibilidades para a inovação. A intersubjetividade compartilhada dos desenvolvedores condensa-se numa formação cultural específica. Conclui-se que a cultura dos desenvolvedores de software livre, tendo sido formada a partir da colaboração produtiva, funciona como contexto para mais colaboração e inovação. Palavras-chave cultura; software livre; inovação; colaboração; cibercultura. Abstract This article aims to investigate the culture of the developers of free software, especially as regards collaboration and productive organizational and social innovation. It discusses the relationship between immaterial labor and free software collaborative development. It starts with the main feature of software development with open source: a productive partnership. This implies the use of living knowledge and the formation of a shared intersubjectivity. Communication mediated by language is the basis of this production. The article also discusses the relationship between collaborative production and innovation. Collaboration extends the communicative interaction between producers, opening up more possibilities for innovation. Intersubjectivity shared condenses in a specific cultural background. It is concluded that the culture of the developers of free software, as generated from the productive collaboration, serves as a context for collaboration and innovation. Keywords culture; free software; innovation; collaboration; cyberculture.

This dialogue is preceded by an introduction about Richard Stallman and the power of “code”, by Lawrence Lessing, as well as a detailed biography of Richard revised by himself. In the conversation following this, Stallman analyzes the origin and validity of the ‘hacking’ and ‘hack’ concepts and the differences between ‘hackers’ and ‘crackers’. He then describes in detail the concept, dimension, forms of creation and the development of software code, especially free software and its implementation framework. He later reflects on and outlines his vision of the relationship between the use of technology and ethics, and about ethical hackers. He also talks about the good and bad behavior of companies and, in this context, his criticism of Corporatocracy. Afterward, he describes concepts about how the creation of software code works compared with other creative arts, such as literature. He goes on to analyze the mechanisms for how ideas are patented in the industrial world, in particular the case of software development. He finally talks about why his vision of free software remains valid and how it should be dealt with during education.

Our previous research into this topic has proved that technical developments significantly affect processes and effectiveness of social innovation. The current process of this development is called Industry 4.0. The first part of the study deals with industrial evolutions and the process of Industry 4.0 is interpreted. The second part of the study presents national and international examples and good practices in order to examine the relationship between digitalisation and social innovation. The results of Industry 4.0 reveal that there is an increasing number of solutions for social innovation that are based on digitalisation and automation. The current digital revolution is radically changing societies and opening up new opportunities for social innovation. Industry 4.0 results in social innovation solutions that use artificial intelligence to improve and optimise processes.

We examine two histories in this paper. First, we briefly look at a North American history, in which we look at the relationship of free software with the founding principles of democracy. Second, we examine recent Brazilian history, especially the most policy decision to adopt free software, affirming technological autonomy. Democratic ideals, defended by the free software movement, are transformed in Brazilian politics, leading both to further free software development and a stronger democracy.

Software development highly depends on the group contribution of developers, so improving the cooperation efficiency of developers is an important issue to improve the efficiency and quality of software development. In recent years, it has become a hot topic in the field of software engineering to improve the intelligent level of software development by mining and using the knowledge contained in software big data. However, the research on software developers and their group collaboration methods has not yet formed systematic research results. Therefore, this paper takes the developer group as the research object, through in-depth analysis of the behavior history data of developers, studies the key technologies of intelligent cooperation, and develops the corresponding support environment based on this. This paper first analyzes and summarizes the related research work. Then, the capability feature model and collaboration relationship model of software developers are given, and the knowledge map of developers is constructed. Furthermore, based on the knowledge map of developers, the collaborative development method based on intelligent recommendation is introduced by taking two developer recommendation methods as examples. Based on the above key technologies, the corresponding supporting tools are developed, and the prototype system of intelligent collaborative development environment is constructed.

It is generally assumed that The Vampyre was published against John Polidori's will. This article brings evidence to support that he played, in fact, an active role in the publication of his tale, perhaps as a response to Frankenstein. In particular, by making use of the tools of textual criticism, it demonstrates how the ‘Extract of a Letter from Geneva’ accompanying The Vampyre in The New Monthly Magazine and in volume editions could not be written without having access to Polidori's Diary. Furthermore, it hypothesizes that the composition of The Vampyre, traditionally located in Geneva in the course of summer 1816, can be postdated to 1818, opening up new possibilities for reading the tale in the context of the relationship between Polidori, Byron, and the Shelleys.

This paper considers the relationship between social science and the food industry, and it suggests that collaboration can be intellectually productive and morally rewarding. It explores the middle ground that exists between paid consultancy models of collaboration on the one hand and a principled stance of nonengagement on the other. Drawing on recent experiences of researching with a major food retailer in the UK, I discuss the ways in which collaborating with retailers can open up opportunities for accessing data that might not otherwise be available to social scientists. Additionally, I put forward the argument that researchers with an interest in the sustainability—ecological or otherwise—of food systems, especially those of a critical persuasion, ought to be empirically engaging with food businesses. I suggest that this is important in terms of generating better understandings of the objectionable arrangements that they seek to critique, and in terms of opening up conduits through which to affect positive changes. Cutting across these points is the claim that while resistance to commercial engagement might be misguided, it is nevertheless important to acknowledge the power-geometries of collaboration and to find ways of leveling and/or leveraging them. To conclude, I suggest that universities have an important institutional role to play in defining the terms of engagement as well as maintaining the boundaries between scholarship and consultancy—a line that can otherwise become quite fuzzy when the worlds of commerce and academic research collide.

Abstract The results presented here show how high-speed simultaneous EBSD and EDS can be used to characterize the essential microstructural parameters in SnPb solder joints with high resolution and precision. Analyses of both intact and failed solder joints have been carried out. Regions of strain localization that are not apparent from the Sn and Pb phase distribution are identified in the intact bond, providing key insights into the mechanism of potential bond failure. In addition, EBSD provides a wealth of quantitative detail such as the relationship between parent Sn grain orientations and Pb coarsening, the morphology and distribution of IMCs on a sub-micron scale and accurate grain size information for all phases within the joint. Such analyses enable a better understanding of the microstructural developments leading up to failure, opening up the possibility of improved accelerated thermal cycling (ATC) testing and better quality control.

Climate change is a global environmental issue and its outcome will affect societies around the world. In recent years, we have seen a growing literature on media coverage of climate change, but, to date, no study has assessed the situation in Cameroon, although it is considered to be one of the world’s most affected and vulnerable regions. This study attempted to address this deficit by analysing how climate change is represented in the Cameroonian media. A similarity analysis was performed on three newspapers published in 2013–2016. Results showed that climate coverage focused on politics and international involvement. It seems disconnected from local realities, potentially opening up a spatial and social psychological distance. The relationship between the representation of climate change and that of poverty is an area for further exploration.
