Daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a new approach to HIV prevention. The study aims to examine how PrEP has been represented and disseminated on one of the most popular social networking sites -Twitter. We collected 1435 public tweets containing the word "Truvada." After computermediated and manual de-duplication, we analyzed 447 unique tweets and calculated weights between two words to measure their co-occurrence in 7word windows. Semantic networks of PrEP-related tweets were constructed. We found that Twitter was used to generate public discussions and collectively interpret new medical information, especially in frequently propagated tweets and from users with more followers. In the meantime, the results revealed the presence of illicit online pharmacies that marketed and sold PrEP without the need for a prescription. We discussed implications for public health and made urgent call for better regulation of online pharmacies.

Online social networking services (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.) have altered the way we engage with individuals, groups, and communities by profoundly changing our everyday information and communication habits on a global scale. Today, social media has also grown into a massive data repository providing very detailed information on the opinions, beliefs, and communications of millions of individuals. Similarly, social media analysis has grown into an essential method for various fields, including political science and international relations. The purpose of this study is to undertake a nuanced social media analysis using Twitter data to contextualize and assess the context, scope, and impact of Turkish IR scholars' interactions on Twitter. Within the scope of the paper, network analysis, topic modeling, descriptive statistics, and regression analysis approaches will be employed to draw meaningful interpretations about their Twitter interactions. Our basic premise is that among Turkish IR scholars, there is a collective network that connects them in terms of interactions, attitudes, and opinions, and that network may be found by analyzing their Twitter data. This working assumption is not supported by the findings.

Handover note in elderly care facilities is a very important media for the employees to share information about non-routine task procedures in the daily operation. Reviewing these memos regularly will help the facility find potential risk factors and inefficiency in routine protocols. However, handover notes are typically handwritten memos and conducting periodical review is not easy for an average employee with heavy workload. To capture this field community intelligence, we have conducted text-mining on handover text. This paper describes results of handover note text-mining cases that lead to employee driven redesign of service processes for better care service.

This paper draws from 'impression management theory' to examine the choices individuals make to visually represent themselves on Facebook and Twitter. We interviewed 20 participants about their image choice and the sorts of inferences others make about their identity. Participants were asked whether they believed their image influenced the types of people who connect with them, and whether their pictorial representation affected the topics and type of communication they have with other people. Contrary to previous research on online impression management, we found that few individuals were motivated to create a specific impression by playing with different images and instead individuals were motivated to appear genuine and authentic. Only a few desired hiding behind an avatar in order to feel freer to self-disclose. We found that Facebook and Twitter were perceived as very different spaces with different affordances and that these perceived affordances influenced participants' choice in image.

In this paper, we analyze the posting and voting activities of reddit's users and show how these interact with the site's structure to create an environment where information activists could build a resource base to oppose the 2012 US House of Representatives bill, Stop Online Privacy Act (SOPA). The broadcasting function of the 'Front Page' was important in raising awareness of SOPA among reddit's users. Broadcasting the outcomes of collective voting back to the voters establishes an attentional feedback loop, and this imbued the collective action which followed with certain characteristics. Continuing a longitudinal investigation into changes in the ways that user attention and activity is distributed between the site's 240,000 'subreddits', we conclude by theorizing whether such collective action will be possible on the reddit of the present.

In the 3D studios the animation scene files undergo a process called as rendering, where the 3D wire frame models are converted into 3D photorealistic images. As the rendering process is both a computationally intensive and a time consuming task, the cloud services based rendering in cloud render farms is gaining popularity among the animators. Though cloud render farms offer many benefits, the animators hesitate to move from their traditional offline rendering to cloud services based render farms as they lack the knowledge, expertise and the time to compare the render farm service providers based on the Quality of Service (QoS) offered by them, negotiate the QoS and monitor whether the agreed upon QoS is actually offered by the renderfarm service providers. In this paper we propose a Cloud Service Broker (CSB) framework called the RenderSelect that helps in the dynamic ranking, selection, negotiation and monitoring of the cloud based render farm services. The cloud services based r...

Daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a new approach to HIV prevention. The study aims to examine how PrEP has been represented and disseminated on one of the most popular social networking sites-Twitter. We collected 1435 public tweets containing the word "Truvada." After computermediated and manual de-duplication, we analyzed 447 unique tweets and calculated weights between two words to measure their co-occurrence in 7word windows. Semantic networks of PrEP-related tweets were constructed. We found that Twitter was used to generate public discussions and collectively interpret new medical information, especially in frequently propagated tweets and from users with more followers. In the meantime, the results revealed the presence of illicit online pharmacies that marketed and sold PrEP without the need for a prescription. We discussed implications for public health and made urgent call for better regulation of online pharmacies.

Hashtags increase the reachability of a tweet to manifolds and consequently, has the potential to create a wider market for brands. The frequent use of a hashtag features it in the Twitter trending list. In this study we want to understand what contributes to the popularity of a hashtag. Further, hashtags generally come in groups in a tweet. In fact, an investigation on a real world dataset of Great Eastern Japan Earthquake reveals that 50 % of hashtags appear in a tweet with at least another hashtag. How this co-occurrence of hashtags affects its popularity is also not addressed heretofore, which is the focus herein. Results indicate that if a hashtag appears with one or more other similar hashtags, popularity of the hashtag increases. In contrast, if a hashtag appears with dissimilar hashtags, popularity of the focal hashtag decreases. The results reverse when dissimilar hashtags come along with a URL.

This paper proposes to use gamification for recognition of software developers' collaboration and commitment. In order to improve productivity, the paper also evaluates the users' engagement in a software development project. The idea is to use the information extracted from source repositories where developers realize their commits. A tool proposes ranking via news feed that will extract information from the source repository by using software engineering metrics, such as McCabe's cyclomatic complexity, in order to build a ranking system, which highlights and rewards the most active developers. The ultimate goal is to determine whether the use of gamification encourages collaboration and commitment of all involved in software development projects.

Cloud computing is the latest computing paradigm that delivers hardware and software resources as virtualization enabled services. Recently, cloud service selection has emerged as an important research problem due to large number of cloud providers and their diverse service configurations, multiple selection criteria, and customer's fuzzy perception of Quality of Service (QoS). In this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy logic framework for cloud service selection based on the individual QoS criteria of customers. In this model, the necessary service configuration and run-time QoS data is collected from reliable sources such as monitoring services, customers' feedbacks, and certified cloud providers' information. The obtained results from conducted case study shows validity and applicability of the proposed framework.

With the growing popularity of cloud computing the number of cloud service providers and services have significantly increased. Thus selecting the best cloud services becomes a challenging task for prospective cloud users. The process of selecting cloud services involves various factors such as characteristics and models of cloud services, user requirements and knowledge, and service level agreement (SLA), to name a few. This paper investigates into the cloud service selection tools, techniques and models by taking into account the distinguishing characteristics of cloud services. It also reviews and analyses academic research as well as commercial tools in order to identify their strengths and weaknesses in the cloud services selection process. It proposes a framework in order to improve the cloud service selection by taking into account services capabilities, quality attributes, level of user's knowledge and service level agreements. The paper also envisions various directions for future research.

The experimental results show that execution time of our approach is less than other approaches and it is more flexible and scalable than the oth...

Cloud is a group of hardware, network, interface and storage that enable the delivery of computing as a service. Cloud services consist, delivery of infrastructure, software and storage over the network based on user demand. NIST defines cloud computing as follows: "cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g. Networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can rapidly provision and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction"[1]. Cloud services setup multi-tenancy. The cloud services like social networking (Facebook or Twitter) and collaboration tools (audio, video conferencing tools and webinar, etc.) are changing the method of people in accessing of business, providing and understanding information. The service provider in cloud model still works on the infrastructure in its own facilities. Irrespective of this, we are unaware about where computing resources, application or even data exist. Based on scale the service provider designs their infrastructure. The cloud provider provides the services to the customer based on demands.

Cloud technology connects a collection of virtualized computers that are dynamically provisioned as computing resources, based on negotiated agreements between service providers and users. It delivers information technology resources in diverse forms of service, and the explosion of Cloud services on the Internet brings new challenges in Cloud service discovery and selection. To address these challenges, a variety of studies have been carried out to develop advanced techniques to assist service users in choosing proper services. In this paper, we survey state-of-the-art Cloud service selection approaches, which are analysed from the following seven perspectives: context, purpose, data representation models, selection techniques, selection parameters, methods for quantifying qualitative parameters, and criteria weighting methods. After comparing and summarizing the reviewed approaches from these seven perspectives, we identify the primary research issues in contemporary Cloud service selection. This survey is expected to bring benefits to both researchers and business agents.
