Orang Asli means the “Original People” in the Malay language. Nowadays, they are classified into three large groups: Senoi, Negrito and proto-Melayu, which further break down into various tribes. Although many still live in the rural areas, some youth have been fortunate enough to venture life in the city by pursuing higher education or seeking employment. A few information technology undergraduates from the Orang Asli community of Malaysia were interviewed via e-mail on the subject of information and communication technology (ICT) among the local indigenous peoples.

Salah satu parameter berkembangnya ICT di Kota Depok adalah meningkatnya jumlah pengguna internet dari berbagai sektor terutama perkantoran, hotel dan kampus dengan memanfaatkan jaringan <em>wifi </em>sebagai media transmisinya. Pada penelitian ini, kami melakukan audit terhadap keamanan jaringan <em>wifi</em> di Kota Depok dengan cara melakukan studi lapangan kinerja dan keamanan jaringan <em>wifi</em> menggunakan teknik <em>wardriving</em>. Studi ini mencakup sekitar 536 jaringan <em>wifi</em> di Jalan Margonda Depok. Hasil studi tersebut, kami menemukan bahwa 89% jaringan <em>wifi</em> menerapkan keamanan dengan<em> </em>menggunakan protokol WPA/WPA2, 1% menggunakan protokol WEP dan 10% bersifat terbuka. Kami juga menemukan sebanyak 20% jaringan <em>wifi</em> berada pada <em>channel</em> 1 dan 19% jaringan <em>wifi</em> berada pada <em>channel</em> 6 dan 11. <em>Channel </em>1, 6 dan 11  merupakan <em>channel</em> yang terbaik bagi penggunaan jaringan <em>wifi</em> karena terbebas dari interferensi jaringan <em>wifi </em>lainnya. Oleh karena itu penilaian kinerja dan keamanan jaringan <em>wifi </em>di Kota Depok dinilai sudah baik sesuai dengan standar IEEE 802.11i yaitu tentang peningkatan pengamanan pada jaringan <em>Wifi </em>menggunakan WPA2<em> </em>dan 802.11b tentang pengaturan <em>channel wifi </em>yang tidak menimbulkan interferensi.</p><p><em><strong>Abstract</strong></em></p><p><em>In 2012, Depok City was awarded as the city of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) from the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology.<em>One of the parameters of the development of ICT in Depok City is the increasing number of internet users from various sectors, especially offices, hotels and campuses by utilizing wifi networks as the transmission media. In this study, we conducted an audit of the security of wifi networks in Depok City by conducting field studies on the performance and security of wifi networks using wardriving techniques.</em><em>This study covers about 536 wifi networks on Margonda Street Depok.

The article presents the results of the questionnaire of the rural population regarding its satisfaction with employment. The relevance of this study is due to a sharp reduction of jobs in the agrarian sector and the need to find non-standard, innovative forms of rural employment to provide peasants with work in the place of residence. The purpose of the article is to publish the results of the survey of villagers regarding their perception of distance employment and the substantiation of proposals for its development in rural areas. The questionnaire covered 622 villagers from 22 regions of Ukraine. The survey revealed that only a third of the residents have a permanent job in their village, of which almost 40% are engaged in agriculture. The overwhelming majority of respondents are dissatisfied with their employment. Among the reasons for dissatisfaction, almost half of respondents called low wages. More than a third of the peasants complained about the harsh working conditions. Regarding the ways to improve their employment, more than a quarter of the rural residents surveyed expressed their desire to go abroad for work, and every fourth peasant sees improvement in his employment in finding a job in the city. It was also found that one third of peasants are interested in distance employment and ready to master information technology. Based on the survey conducted, the preconditions for the development of distance employment in rural areas are identified, namely: development of rural information and communication infrastructure; popularization of distant employment among peasants; organizing and conducting computer literacy courses in villages and the like. The development of distance employment will contribute to raising the income level of the rural population.

This paper considers the development of women (especially rural and the poor) as the central aspect to the poverty alleviation and reduction of inequality. The paper proposes an extensive usage of information technology to enhance the ‘capability’ (as in the concept of ‘Capability Approach’ by Prof. Amrtya Sen) of women so as to reduce poverty and inequality. The paper is suggestive of examples of few prominent business oriented and development related efforts designed and executed for the development of women by Government and other organizations and is logically indicative of the idea that those efforts would have given wondrous results, if information technology would have played a role there. One of the examples quoted in the paper would be DWCRA (the development of women and children in rural areas) scheme. The Paper actually emphasizes on the fact and proposes that Radical Feminism may be reduced through the ‘Capability Development’ of women through Business Opportunity Development, through the usage of Information and Communication Technology. The paper further quotes few examples of ICT based efforts in other South Asian Countries also.

The Bologna Process, Information and Communication Technology, and market forces have brought manyinnovations and great changes to higher education systems throughout Europe. Reforms in higher educationhave taken a new direction, towards making higher education students more autonomous. However, manycountries have not really adopted this innovative way of teaching and still maintain an old ‘transmission’ stylewhich often entails teachers trying to pour knowledge into the minds of their students. Promoting autonomouslearning (the ability of students to manage their own learning) in higher education is crucial both for theindividual and society, as the idea of an academic student comprises critical reflective thinking and theimportance of becoming an independent learner. This article will discuss the importance of promotingautonomous learning throughout self, peer and co-assessment for higher education quality enhancement. Thepaper will examine the case of International Black Sea University’s MA students enrolled in the Higher EducationManagement program. The analyses of a survey will be used to discuss the significance of autonomous learningfor students and their readiness for self, peer and co-assessment.

In this study, the integration of fuzzy analytic hierarchy processes (FAHPs) and fuzzy overlays in GIS was used to determine appropriate geographic zones for the establishment of knowledge intensive firms in 22 districts of the Tehran metropolis. According to the theoretical background, a number of criteria were selected for the identification of appropriate geographic zones. The results show that among the selected criteria, proximity to existing knowledge intensity firms, and companies providing information and communication technology (ICT) services, higher education and research centers, being close to convenient transportation network and land use have more important role in the location of firms. According to the findings, among 22 regions, regions 3, 7, 6, 1, 2, 10, 4, 11, and 12 are the most desirable ones for the deployment of firms. Ultimately, regions 6, 7, 3, and 1 have received “very high” priority for the deployment of knowledge intensive firms.
