In the three months period between March and June 2016 we launched a survey on the AUIC website, open to the contribution of all members, to evaluate the dissemination and use of modern information technology in the treatment of Chronic Skin Lesions (CSL). The now ubiquitous diffusion of desktop and portable computers and mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets has confirmed the World Wide Web (“the Internet”) as a tool for communication and sharing of information and knowledge. With the current daily use of the Internet and the advent of social media there are no longer any limits to communication in all social and employment contexts. In our view, it is clear that the world of wound care could, or rather should, use these important tools in order to improve the standards of care offered to patients on a daily basis. In addition, the entry of a new generation of “digital natives” in the labor market will make the use of these technologies no longer an exception, but the most absolute normality.

Despite the progress made in the mobile application field, there are still some boundaries and limitations in using it. Some of these difficulties are connected directly to the Culture. Other difficulties are related to the experience in using such technology. This research aims to find out the main restrictions and obstacles which limit the use of mobile handsets as an Islamic smart Hajj and Umra Application. The research aim extends to studying the effect of cultural issues on peoples use of the internet on a mobile phone.

With the increased use of the Internet to share confidential information with other users around the world, the demands to protect this information are also increasing. This is why, today, privacy has found its important place in users' lives. However, Internet users have different interpretations of the meaning of privacy. This fact makes it difficult to find the best way to address the privacy issue. In addition, most of the current standard protocols in use over the Internet do not support the level of privacy that most users expect. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the best balance between users' expectation and the practical level of privacy to address user privacy needs and evaluate the most important protocols from privacy aspects.


The internet is now the main way in which information is obtained. Chapter 13 considers the internet from a legal perspective, focusing on information and its disclosure. It seeks to provide a non-technical description of the operation of the internet as exemplified by the world wide web. It discusses the use of the internet by bodies subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and other statutes and outlines some of the pitfalls of such use. For instance, a publication of information on a website operated from England may expose the publisher to civil or criminal liability in any country of the world on the basis of the law of those countries. The chapter explains the meaning of cookies, cloud computing, hackers, crackers and viruses. and discusses the problems of determining jurisdiction and seeking enforcement.

Combining data from the sixth wave (2010–2014) of the World Values Survey (WVS) and the 2012–2013 Perceptions of Electoral Integrity (PEI) expert survey, this study looks at the link between the frequency of citizens’ informational use of traditional media (newspapers, magazines, radio and TV) and the internet, and the accuracy of their perceptions of the electoral process, and investigates how this link varies depending on countries’ levels of press freedom. A multilevel analysis including data from 16 countries shows that the frequency of the use of traditional media has a significantly more positive effect on the accuracy of citizens’ perceptions of electoral integrity in countries with high levels of press freedom compared with countries with low levels of press freedom. The frequency of the use of the internet relates similarly to the accuracy of perceptions of electoral integrity in countries with high and low levels of press freedom.

The increasing interest of people around the world towards the popular cultures of China, Korea and Japan leads researchers to question how these countries influence the socio-cultural spaces of other countries through the export of their mass culture products. This study focuses on the analysis of Chinese doramas in the Russian sociocultural space. The increasing number of online fan communities, the activity of translators and dubbers of Chinese TV series, and the widespread use of the Internet in Russia make Chinese dramas easily accessible to a wide audience. Using quantitative methods, the author of the study came to the conclusion that people in Russia are very interested in Asian cultures, and audiences of Asian TV series are growing at a tremendous rate every year. While Korean dramas remain the most popular in Russia, Chinese serials have great competitive potential against their Korean and Japanese counterparts. This article may be useful to all researchers of mass and popular culture and television series.

We have all become increasingly aware that, for commercial and perhaps other reasons, our use of the Internet can and is being tracked. For most of us this tracking has become a major concern as unwanted e-mail (commonly called SPAM) has begun to clog our incoming mailboxes.  There are a variety of ways to combat both the tracking and the receipt of unwanted e-mail. One of the ways of dealing with this problem is the use of an anonymiser service, many of which are available over the Web.

The examination of the ‘incoming’ generation as a new sociocultural type of contemporary human remains relevant at all times. The eldest representatives of the new generation (so called ‘Generation Z’ or the ‘Digital generation’) are today’s alumni who crave to take over the world, re-arranging it in accordance with their interests and views, and claim to become the ‘leading generation’ of our century. Research into this generation, the attempt to understand it is undoubtedly an important task. This material is dedicated to the matter of defining the interrelation between individualisation and the massification in ‘generation Z’ representatives. The research methods used in the study are as follows: philosophic-anthropological analysis, content-analysis, and scientific data interpretation. The research work contains the thesis that tendencies of individualisation and massification in the lives of ‘digital children’ are inextricable and consistent. The role of the Internet in general and social networks in particular in the process of individualisation of Generation Z is discussed, touching on the problem of ‘stereotypness’, by which individualisation of a person begins to be built in cyberspace. The new generation, on the one hand, is somewhat disconnected from the real world, feeling and creating its uniqueness and individuality, and on the other hand, maintaining a sense of community, unity and solidarity, but only often through a virtual environment. At the same time, consolidating quickly and going offline as needed.
