This paper presents the survey conducted to assess end-user engagement in building organisation's security. A total of forty-eight (48) responses were collected from fifteen (15) mid-sized business organisations and institutions in Tanzania. The results show that little has been done to facilitate end-user engagement in building secure organisation. Also, the survey showed that old security problem such as passwords sharing still exist. The findings from this paper can be used by security officers and implementers within organisation to build and maintain sustainable secure organisation.

Rising worldwide scrutiny of the PhD has focused on issues such as return on investment and career outcomes. This article investigates PhD graduate careers and knowledge transfer looking at the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS). Firstly, our extensive literature review of PhD graduate outcomes reveals limited knowledge of HASS careers and a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) bias. Secondly, our case study of graduates suggests HASS PhDs provide a vital conduit for end-user engagement and knowledge transfer. Our findings deepen knowledge about the careers of HASS PhDs by revealing pre-existing professional networks may be harnessed to inform end-user relationships throughout candidature and post-graduation. Contrary to dominant assumptions, these networks may endure even for graduates in the academy. This under-recognized phenomenon demonstrates the multi-sector knowledge transfer capacity of HASS researchers with implications for their research capability and career development needs and perceptions of the value of their research.

This chapter develops a contemporary media historical account of consumer end-use of locative media service, Foursquare. It focuses on the period just prior to the splitting of Foursquare into two separate consumer facing apps (Foursquare City Guide and Swarm), when Foursquare still functioned as a single, check in driven, locative mobile social networking service. Combining original research from 2013–2014, with the now extensive international literature on Foursquare end use, this chapter examines the myriad of ways that people have engaged with this pioneering locative media app. The chapter is structured around an exploration of two sets of interrelated issues. First, it draws on Lee Humphreys’ (2012) tripartite notion of “coordinating, cataloguing, and connecting,” to trace how urban spaces and places are explored, catalogued, and communicated through end user engagement with Foursquare. Second, it draws out how these communicative practices involving the Foursquare service are entwined with processes of individual identity construction and performance.

Abstract Improved end-user engagement is considered to be a key factor in decarbonization efforts towards climate neutral energy systems. While first adopters are already actively seeking ways how to optimize their energy consumption, a true shift in consumer behaviour can only be achieved if the financial benefits are well established and presented. The study aims at estimating the economic performance of end-user engagement in provision of demand response services using air-to-air heat pumps as the underlying technology. The results of the paper help evaluate in a real data setting whether the existing market framework provides sufficient incentives to facilitate end-user participation in the demand response service.
