2. 1. Visualizing Cluster Patterns at Scale : A Model and a Library

   Author : Elio Ventocilla; Maria Riveiro; Göran Falkman; Rafael M. Martins; Katerina Vrostou; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Visual analytics; cluster patterns; big data; unsupervised learning; multidimensional projections; vector quantization; progressive visual analytics; Skövde Artificial Intelligence Lab SAIL ; Skövde Artificial Intelligence Lab SAIL ;

   Abstract : Large quantities of data are being collected and analyzed by companies and institutions, with the aim of extracting knowledge and value. When little is known about the data at hand, analysts engage in exploratory data analysis to achieve a better understanding. READ MORE

4. 2. Managers' Cooperative Work Practices in Computational Artefacts-Supported Library Systems

   Author : Niki Chatzipanagiotou; Anita Mirijamdotter; Jaime Campos; Christina Mörtberg; Ulrika Lund Snis; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Work Practice; Cooperative Work; Cooperative Work Practices; Computational Artefacts; Computer-Supported Cooperative Work; Articulation Work; Awareness; Appropriation; Ethnography; Focused-Ethnography; Fieldwork; Vignettes; Complexity; Managers; Management; Libraries; Academic Library; Academic Library Managers; Informatik; Information Systems;

   Abstract : The dissertation presents understandings of the complex, contextual, cooperative everyday work practices of academic library managers supported by computational artefacts, as well as challenges disrupting their practices and thereby computational artefacts usage. The doctoral research approaches and conceptualises managers’ work as ‘everyday cooperative practice’, in this way adopting the computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) approach. READ MORE

5. 3. Language Support for Controlling Timing-Based Covert Channels

   Author : Alejandro Russo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; information-flow; language-based security; semaphores; non-interference; Haskell; library; concurrency; internal timing covert channel;

   Abstract : The problem of controlling information flow in multithreaded programs remains an important open challenge.A major difficulty for tracking information flow in concurrent programs is due to the internal timing covert channel. READ MORE

6. 4. Intertwine and Play: Techniques and Tools for Multi-Scaled Interaction design - Experiences from Public Library Space

   Author : Eva Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; design methods; multi-scaled interaction design; public library; interaction design;

   Abstract : This dissertation addresses the topic of designing with technology as a design material for public libraries and is positioned within the field of interaction design. The topic has been addressed through a research program in ‘multi-scaled interaction design’ applied in public library space. READ MORE

7. 5. A time and place for everything? : social visualisation tools and critical literacies

   Author : Veronica Johansson; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Critical literacy; Document perspective; enactments of meaning; geographic information systems GIS ; ICT; information activities; inscriptions; interaction; library and information science LIS ; representation; social data; social visualisation tools; sociocultural perspective; Library and information science; Library and Information Science; Biblioteks- och informationsvetenskap;

   Abstract : The aim of this study is to analyse mutual enactments of critical literacies and social visualisation tools as information resources. The central concept of critical literacies as used here extends and redefines prior critical literacy definitions to denote the pluralistic situated enactments of meaning through which study participants identify, question and transform bias, restrictions and power related aspects of access, control and use in relation to the tools.
