In this thesis, "Human behavior on the Internet," the human anxiety is conceptualized. The following questions have guided the writing of the thesis: How humans behave with the Internet technology? What goes in their mind? What kinds of behaviors are shown while using the Internet? What is the role of the content on the Internet and especially what are the types of anxiety behavior on the Internet? By conceptualization this thesis aims to provide a model for studying whether humans show signs of less or exacerbated anxiety while using the Internet.

This book is designed to cover three objectives. One, to provide a comprehensive resource to individuals (including novice, IT/Non-HP-UX administrators, HP-UX administrators) who intend to take the Certified System Administrator for HP-UX certification exam and pass it. Two, to provide a quick and valuable on-the-job resource to HP-UX administrators, administrators of other UNIX operating system software, IT managers, programmers, and DBAs working in the HP-UX environment. Three, to provide an easy-to-understand guide to novice and IT/non-HP-UX administrators who intend to learn HP-UX from the beginning. This book contains 33 chapters. The book is organized in such a way that it helps its audience understand concepts, implementation procedures, some basic troubleshooting, command syntax, configuration files, and daemons involved. There are three key areas: UNIX fundamentals, HP-UX system administration, and HP-UX network administration. 1.UNIX Fundamentals covers the basics of UNIX. Most information is not specific to a particular UNIX flavor, but rather includes general UNIX concepts, file manipulation and security techniques, shell and awk programming, vi editor, basic commands, and other topics. Chapters 01 through 06 and chapter 21 cover this area. Unlike many other similar books, a chapter on shell scripting is presented after covering HP-UX System Administration chapters. This is done intentionally to provide readers with some practical examples based on the knowledge they have gained from UNIX Fundamentals and HP-UX System Administration chapters. 2.HP-UX System Administration covers the HP-UX-specific system administration concepts and topics including HP-UX installation methods; software and patch management; user and group account administration; disk and device file management; LVM and file system administration; swap space and printer management; system startup and shutdown procedures; kernel reconfiguration techniques; backup, restore, and system recovery functions; job automation and process control; system logging and performance monitoring; and so on. Chapters 07 through 20 cover this area. 3.HP-UX Network Administration covers HP-UX network administration concepts and topics such as OSI and TCP/IP models; network hardware overview; LAN card administration; IP subnetting and routing techniques; network troubleshooting tools; system startup services; naming services such as DNS, NIS, and LDAP; File sharing tools viz. NFS and AutoFS; Time synchronization using NTP; internet services administration; BootP/TFTP services; system security; and so on. Chapters 22 through 33 cover this area. The beginning of each chapter highlights objectives covered. The end of each chapter includes a summary as to what is learnt in the chapter. Throughout the book tables, figures, screen shots, and examples are given to explain concepts and tasks. The output generated as a result of running commands is highlighted in light grey background to differentiate it with surrounding text. The book includes several appendices one of which contains more than 550 practice exam questions. Tables of commands, important files, and service daemons are included in separate appendices.

The ability to communicate with anyone at anytime, anywhere, necessitates a need to provide reliable, resilient, and sustainable applications to support the evolving uses of mobile technologies. Movement-Aware Applications for Sustainable Mobility: Technologies and Approaches focuses on the use of location sensing technology and its wider applicability in supporting sustainable mobility, and presents current research on developing innovative approaches for gathering, representing, storing and analyzing movement data sets being generated from location sensing technology. Offering a unique opportunity for learning about how different techniques are being used to develop new movement-aware applications, this reference work gives students, researchers and practitioners the opportunity to acquire new concepts in the production, awareness and use of sensors, data, and information products for supporting sustainable mobility.

This book explores the emerging concept of cultural DNA, considering its application across different fields and examining commonalities in approach. It approaches the subject from four different perspectives, in which the topics include theories, analysis and synthesis of cultural DNA artefacts. After an opening section which reviews theoretical work on cultural DNA research, the second section discusses analysis & synthesis of cultural DNA at the urban scale. Section three covers analysis & synthesis of cultural DNA artefacts, and the final section offers approaches to grammar-based cultural DNA research. The book places emphasis on two specific axes: one is the scale of the object under discussion, which ranges from the small (handheld artefacts) to the very large (cities); and the other is the methodology used from analysis to synthesis. This diverse approach with detailed information about grammar-based methodologies toward cultural DNA makes the book unique. This book will serve as a source of inspiration for designers and researchers trying to find the essence, archetype, and the building blocks of our environment for the incorporation of social and cultural factors into their designs.

This book of conference proceedings contains papers presented at the Art and Design International Conference (AnDIC 2016). It examines the impact of Cyberology, also known as Internet Science, on the world of art and design. It looks at how the rapid growth of Cyberology and the creation of various applications and devices have influenced human relationships. The book discusses the impact of Cyberology on the behaviour, attitudes and perceptions of users, including the way they work and communicate. With a strong focus on how the Cyberology world influences and changes the methods and works of artists, this book features topics that are relevant to four key players - artists, intermediaries, policy makers, and the audience - in a cultural system, especially in the world of art and design. It examines the development, problems and issues of traditional cultural values, identity and new trends in contemporary art. Most importantly, the book attempts to discuss the past, present and future of art and design whilst looking at some underlying issues that need to be addressed collectively.
