What is Twitter, a Social Network or a News Media?

by Haewoon Kwak, Changhyun Lee, Hosung Park, Sue Moon
"... Twitter, a microblogging service less than three years old, commands more than 41 million users as of July 2009 and is growing fast. Twitter users tweet about any topic within the 140-character limit and follow others to receive their tweets. The goal of this paper is to study the topological charac ..."

characteristics of Twitter and its power as a new medium of information sharing. We have crawled the entire Twitter site and obtained 41.7 million user profiles, 1.47 billion social relations, 4, 262 trending topics, and 106 million tweets. In its follower-following topology analysis we have found a non

"... software agents because they have a physical body. Therefore, it is possible for robots to communicate an individual’s expertise through nonverbal methods. Our group has already developed several types of robots, including a waiter robot system, a cleaning robot, and a listener robot, that have the ..."

by Alfarez Abdul-Rahman , Stephen Hailes , 2000
"... At any given time, the stability of a community depends on the right balance of trust and distrust. Furthermore, we face information overload, increased uncertainty and risk taking as a prominent feature of modern living. As members of society, we cope with these complexities and uncertainties by re ..."

by relying trust, which is the basis of all social interactions. Although a small number of trust models have been proposed for the virtual medium, we find that they are largely impractical and artificial. In this paper we provide and discuss a trust model that is grounded in real-world social trust

Статья посвящена анализу социализирующей роли общества. С точки зрения Пла-тона рассматриваются последствия правильного и ошибочного осуществления воспи-тания и обучения, находящих отражение в формировании добродетельных или пороч-ных граждан. На примере неправильных типов государственного устройства, Платон вскрывал присущие им изъяны и псевдоценности, губительно сказывающиеся на жизненных уста-новках всего населения, т.к. неверные убеждения людей становятся причинами распрей, войн, плохих законов и несчастной жизни человека. Это позволило философу констати-ровать противоречивость человеческой природы, стремящейся вместо саморазвития к удовольствиям. Решение данной проблемы Платон видел в создании идеального государства, свобод-ного от пороков тимократии, олигархии, демократии и тирании. Однако характери-стики идеальной модели государственного устройства, свидетельствуют о жесткой социальной стратификации, деиндивидуализации, выступающих, по сути, стабилиза-торами слаженной работы государства. Ключевые слова: государство; добродетель; правитель; тиран; лишенный граж-данских прав; раб; закон; семья.

naling. While the CCCBmeetings arose from interests in pheromone signaling and quorum sensing, it was evident at CCCB-5 that the cell-cell communication field is continuing to mature, expanding into new areas and integrating cutting-edge technolo-gies. In this minireview, we recap some of the research discussed at CCCB-5 and the questions that have arisen from it. The 5th American Society for Microbiology Conference onCell-Cell Communication in Bacteria (CCCB-5), which con-vened from 18 to 21 October 2014 in San Antonio, TX, and was organized by Marvin Whiteley and Eric Stabb, highlighted recent advances in our understanding of microbial intercellular signal-ing. (For reviews of past meetings, see references 1 to 4.) Tradi-tionally, cell-cell communication has mainly focused on quorum sensing (QS), in which bacteria release small diffusible molecules that can alter a neighboring cell’s behavior when present at thresh-old levels, therefore permitting for the measurement of local cell density. It was evident at CCCB-5 that the cell-cell communica-tion field is continuing to mature, moving from identifying new QS molecules to understanding environmental inputs affecting

Will media influence learning? Reframing the debate

by Robert B. Kozma - Educational Technology Research and Development , 1994
"... This article addresses the position taken by Clark (1983) that media do not influence learning under any conditions. The article reframes the questions raised by Clark to explore the conditions under which media will influence learning. Specifically, it posits the need to consider the capabilities o ..."

This approach is examined within the context of two major media-based projects, one which uses computers and the other video. The article discusses the implications
