"Such matters related to digital technology, communications policy and converged media have recently incited much debate in Canada, eliciting various perspectives on strategies to meet a digital future. These debates include publicly conducted national discussions about copyright, net neutrality and the nature of broadcasting. Many proposals are informed by Canadian industries' integration into an increasingly globalized digital economy, national government engagement with the jurisdictional difficulties of the Internet and the increasingly fragmented content universe but technologically converged daily experience of the information worker or digitally literate citizen. Unequal opportunities to access this digital world have made the construction of a national, universal and inclusive digital network infrastructure a common concern."--Pages 3-4.

One Year

On 6 December 2006, the Gowers Review of Intellectual Property unveiled its much-anticipated report investigating whether intellectual property law was still “fit for purpose in an era of globalisation, digitisation and increasing economic specialisation”. The Review, which had one year in which to cover the entire field of intellectual property law, concluded that there was no need for radical overhaul of the system. However, it did make a number of recommendations for reform and one area it considered to be particularly important was strengthening enforcement of IP rights. In recent years, concerns about the inadequate enforcement of intellectual property laws have focused mainly on copyright law and the entertainment industries. More specifically, they have centred on the opportunities for copyright infringement offered by digital technology and the internet. The music industry was the first to find itself out of its depth in the brave new digital world, and the film industry quickly followed. “Piracy”, we are told, is now rife and must be fought at every opportunity.

The Mind

Being the first social generation to have grown up with the internet and portable digital technology from a young age, Generation Z and Generation Alpha are seldom aware of affections, devotions, traditions, relationships, and cultures that form the basis for a convivial and serene life. They run in this digital world to cope with the current scenario, failing to take in love and affection. The literature reviews furnish the details that Generation Z and Alpha are bestowed with abundant knowledge and information by technology, but they fail to look at the essential parts of humanity. Hence, this paper aims to use stories as a tool to bring back the beam of happiness in the lives of future humans. The surveys that have been taken show that stories are loved by people of all ages, and so it is easy to educate and revive morals, mannerisms, traditional ideas, and cultures through them. Therefore, it is the need of the hour to rejuvenate these groups through stories to lead a peaceful life, which is the ultimate aim of birth. Stories also provide pleasure and activate the mind to think in the right way since the listener is out of the box.

Sense Of Reality

Gothic media has flourished in the digital world. The internet itself is a deeply Gothic environment, characterised by persistent anxieties of infection, deception, exploitation and surveillance. This chapter explores some of the ways in which digital Gothic media engages with the Gothic potentials of digital technology itself. Opening with a discussion of the Japanese film Kairo (2001), an early and influential example of a narrative which uses the internet itself as a locus of Gothic horror, I shall proceed to consider examples of Gothic digital media including screamers, creepypasta, Slenderman vlogs, Gothic webcomics such as the works of Emily Carroll (2010–16), horror memes such as Zalgo, and social media-based fiction such as the work of _9MOTHER9HORSE9EYES9 (2016), all of which draw upon anxieties regarding corruption and contagion in order to exploit the potential of online technologies to unnerve their users and unsettle their sense of reality.

Adults And Children

We are witnessing today a phenomenon that might be metaphorically called an explosion of digital technology. The computer and multi-function mobile telephones accompany young people incessantly. A lot of them hardly remember the world free of this kind of implements. G. Small, and G. Vorgan [2011] call today’s generation of teenagers “Digital Natives” who acquire knowledge on the Internet, and read no paper-printed information which is seen by them as too antiquated. According to these authors, “Digital immigrants” are newcomers to the digital world. It is adults who have entered the world of new technologies, and who seem mistrustful and sometimes overcome by a sort of “techno-phobia”. The diffi culty of successful communication today between adults and children, teachers and pupils, has been made even more serious by the arrival of new technologies. MEN / The Polish Ministry of National Education / have – in their attempt to meet pupils’ expectations, and thus make the school a more attractive and modern institution – started work on an e-textbook. My interests in that area have been particularly aroused by the situation of those pupils who have been diagnosed with dyslectic problems. Will the proposed didactic solutions allow for alleviating such problems or, possibly, will they aggravate the situation? In the context of an animated discussion about the project of an e-textbook, I intend to concentrate upon the situation of pupils who experience considerable diffi culties in the process of learning at school.

Over Time

The Internet was supposed to fragment audiences and make media monopolies impossible. Instead, behemoths like Google and Facebook now dominate the time we spend online—and grab all the profits from the attention economy. This book explains how this happened. It sheds light on the stunning rise of the digital giants and the online struggles of nearly everyone else—and reveals what small players can do to survive in a game that is rigged against them. The book shows how seemingly tiny advantages in attracting users can snowball over time. The Internet has not reduced the cost of reaching audiences—it has merely shifted who pays and how. Challenging some of the most enduring myths of digital life, the book explains why the Internet is not the postindustrial technology that has been sold to the public, how it has become mathematically impossible for grad students in a garage to beat Google, and why net neutrality alone is no guarantee of an open Internet. It also explains why the challenges for local digital news outlets and other small players are worse than they appear and demonstrates what it really takes to grow a digital audience and stay alive in today's online economy. The book shows why, even on the Internet, there is still no such thing as a free audience.

Radio Access

The net neutrality principle states that users should have equal access to all Internet content and that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) should not practice differentiated treatment on any of the Internet traffic. While net neutrality aims to restrain any kind of discrimination, it also grants exemption to a certain category of traffic known as specialized services (SS), by allowing the ISP to dedicate part of the resources for the latter. In this work, we consider a heterogeneous LTE/WiFi wireless network and we investigate revenue-maximizing Radio Access Technology (RAT) selection strategies that are net neutrality-compliant, with exemption granted to SS traffic. Our objective is to find out how the bandwidth reservation for SS traffic would be made in a way that allows maximizing the revenue while being in compliance with net neutrality and how the choice of the ratio of reserved bandwidth would affect the revenue. The results show that reserving bandwidth for SS traffic in one RAT (LTE) can achieve higher revenue. On the other hand, when the capacity is reserved across both LTE and WiFi, higher social benefit in terms of number of admitted users can be realized, as well as lower blocking probability for the Internet access traffic.
