the aim of this paper is to show that modern media are not totally independent of the older media and that there is, specifically, a kind of language transfer from older media such as television to the modern ones. although internet users enjoy relatively more freedom in the virtual reality public domains compared with real public domains, their political communications in negotiation rooms are...

This paper describes an experimental study for discovering underlying laws of market capitalization using BS (Balance Sheet) items. For this purpose, we apply law discovery methods based on neural networks: RF5 (Rule Finder) discovers a single numeric law from data containing only numeric values, RF6 discovers a set of nominally conditioned polynomials from data containing both nominal and nume...

according to reports about 30-thousand people spent watching television had the impact on their memory and recall that the results showed no differences between men and women. the people who watched less than an hour a day did better at every memory function. as these contributors watched negative political ads, physiological responses indicated that their body was reflexively preparing to move...

Internet cannot provide perfect information services for farmers in rural regions in China, because farmers in rural regions can hardly access the internet by now. But the wide coverage of mobile signal, telephone line, and television network, etc. gave us a chance to solve the problem. The integrated pest management platform of Northern fruit trees were developed based on the integrated techno...

“Network neutrality” and “open access” are two policies designed to preserve openness on the Internet. Open access mandates openness of conduits (e.g. television cable and DSL) to intermediaries (e.g. America Online), while network neutrality mandates openness to advanced content (streaming video, interactive e-commerce, etc.). We develop a systems model with free entry and competition in all t...

This letter proposes a new mechanism for network configuration on a mobile device that provides Point of Attachment (PoA) specific information using IEEE 802.21 and DHCP before moving to a new PoA. This allows the mobile device to prepare for intelligent handover decision either stateless address configuration or stateful address configuration when entering an IPv6 network. It allows the mobile...

The presence of social networks and mobile technology in form of secondary screens used in conjunction with television plays a significant role in the shift from traditional television to social television (TV). In this research, we investigate user interactions with secondary screens during live and non-live transmission of TV programs. We further explore the role of handheld devices in this s...
