Book El rating de la informaci  n en internet

Download or read book El rating de la informaci n en internet written by Fernando García Monleón and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A día de hoy la red de redes es un océano de contenidos o mejor dicho, datos, que es el término que mejor encuadra esta nueva realidad en la que el fenómeno domínate es el Big Data. Los datos contienen información y conocimiento al igual que ruido informativo, el cual posee, sin duda, mayor peso en el conjunto y dada la evolución del fenómeno de Internet, este desequilibrio en desventaja del conocimiento no hará sino aumentar con el tiempo a menos que los propios consumidores de información, ahora convertidos simultáneamente en creadores de la misma, seamos capaces de adoptar una posición más responsable y crítica con nuestro papel activo en la red. El origen de internet sin embargo es muy diferente, una herramienta al servicio del conocimiento sin apenas ruido que generase distorsiones. Cabe preguntarse: ¿Qué ha ocurrido?, ¿Ha desparecido la “antigua Internet” en favor de una “nueva red”, al servicio de los datos, el ahora famoso “Big Data”? ¿O aún es posible acceder a ella? La conclusión a la que he llegado a lo largo de esta obra es que la “Internet originaria” no ha desaparecido, simplemente está oculta por la niebla generada por el ruido, pero no es en absoluto inaccesible, simplemente hay que saber buscar. Y por último una reflexión. Internet es el fenómeno más relevante del siglo XXI, ya que está reconfigurando las sociedades humanas que lo habitan, hasta el punto que podemos decir que Internet se ha convertido por derecho propio en patrimonio de la humanidad, y como tal debemos cuidarlo y hacer un uso responsable de él, si de verdad queremos legar a las generaciones futuras un patrimonio valioso y no un fenómeno incontrolable que los convierta en sus víctimas propiciatorias.

Book The European Handbook of Media Accountability

Download or read book The European Handbook of Media Accountability written by Tobias Eberwein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the Leveson Inquiry in Great Britain, as well as the EU High-Level Group on Media Freedom and Pluralism, have stirred heated debates about media accountability and media self-regulation across Europe. How responsible are journalists? How well-developed are infrastructures of media self-regulation in the different European countries? How much commitment to media accountability is there in the media industry – and how actively do media users become involved in the process of media criticism via social media? With contributions from leading scholars in the field of journalism and mass communication, this handbook brings together reports on the status quo of media accountability in all EU members states as well as key countries close to Europe, such as Turkey and Israel. Each chapter provides an up-to-date overview of media accountability structures as well as a synopsis of relevant research, exploring the role of media accountability instruments in each national setting, including both media self-regulation (such as codes of ethics, press councils, ombudspersons) and new instruments that involve audiences and stakeholder groups (such as media blogs and user comment systems). A theoretically informed, cross-national comparative analysis of the state of media accountability in contemporary Europe, this handbook constitutes an invaluable basis for further research and policy-making and will appeal to students and scholars of media studies and journalism, as well as policy-makers and practitioners.

Book The Master Switch

Download or read book The Master Switch written by Tim Wu and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-11-02 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New Yorker and Fortune Best Book of the Year "A must-read for all Americans who want to remain the ones deciding what they can read, watch, and listen to.” —Arianna Huffington Analyzing the strategic maneuvers of today’s great information powers—Apple, Google, and an eerily resurgent AT&T—Tim Wu uncovers a time-honored pattern in which invention begets industry and industry begets empire. It is easy to forget that every development in the history of the American information industry—from the telephone to radio to film—once existed in an open and chaotic marketplace inhabited by entrepreneurs and utopians, just as the Internet does today. Each of these, however, grew to be dominated by a monopolist or cartel. In this pathbreaking book, Tim Wu asks: will the Internet follow the same fate? Could the Web—the entire flow of American information—come to be ruled by a corporate leviathan in possession of "the master switch"? Here, Tim Wu shows how a battle royale for the Internet’s future is brewing, and this is one war we dare not tune out.

Book Net Neutrality Compendium

  • Author : Luca Belli
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2015-11-10
  • ISBN : 3319264257
  • Pages : 309 pages

Download or read book Net Neutrality Compendium written by Luca Belli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-10 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ways in which Internet traffic is managed have direct consequences on Internet users’ rights as well as on their capability to compete on a level playing field. Network neutrality mandates to treat Internet traffic in a non-discriminatory fashion in order to maximise end users’ freedom and safeguard an open Internet. This book is the result of a collective work aimed at providing deeper insight into what is network neutrality, how does it relates to human rights and free competition and how to properly frame this key issue through sustainable policies and regulations. The Net Neutrality Compendium stems from three years of discussions nurtured by the members of the Dynamic Coalition on Network Neutrality (DCNN), an open and multi-stakeholder group, established under the aegis of the United Nations Internet Governance Forum (IGF).

Book On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems  OTM 2009 Workshops

Download or read book On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems OTM 2009 Workshops written by Robert Meersman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2009-11-06 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internet-based information systems, the second covering the large-scale in- gration of heterogeneous computing systems and data resources with the aim of providing a global computing space. Eachofthesefourconferencesencouragesresearcherstotreattheirrespective topics within a framework that incorporates jointly (a) theory, (b) conceptual design and development, and (c) applications, in particular case studies and industrial solutions. Following and expanding the model created in 2003, we again solicited and selected quality workshop proposals to complement the more “archival” nature of the main conferences with research results in a number of selected and more “avant-garde” areas related to the general topic of Web-based distributed c- puting. For instance, the so-called Semantic Web has given rise to several novel research areas combining linguistics, information systems technology, and ar- ?cial intelligence, such as the modeling of (legal) regulatory systems and the ubiquitous nature of their usage. We were glad to see that ten of our earlier s- cessful workshops (ADI, CAMS, EI2N, SWWS, ORM, OnToContent, MONET, SEMELS, COMBEK, IWSSA) re-appeared in 2008 with a second, third or even ?fth edition, sometimes by alliance with other newly emerging workshops, and that no fewer than three brand-new independent workshops could be selected from proposals and hosted: ISDE, ODIS and Beyond SAWSDL. Workshop - diences productively mingled with each other and with those of the main c- ferences, and there was considerable overlap in authors.
