In this paper we discuss the results of a survey of senior citizens’ interaction with information technology. We expected that the “digital divide” between young and old might be diminishing, and we found evidence of that. We also report on information technologies that seem to be attracting seniors and those that have not yet attracted this age group. We also report findings with regard to sen...

Capabilities for accessing, delivering, and exchanging information in digital forms vary greatly across the rich and the poor nations. Mobile networks can reach quickly into regions where fixed networks are slow to emerge and thus offer the potential to bridge the global digital divide. The ultimate success of these " mobile e-Development " or MED models, however, will depend on a variety of co...

The complex problem of declining female participation in the IT industry has been conceptualised in a number of vivid images – the shrinking pipeline, the pink collar work force and the digital divide. This paper argues that women working in IT are discursively divided from the ‘masculine’ domain of IT and from other women by distinctive discursive practices. This paper discusses the use of dis...

Whilst many authors are now confident to dismiss the notion of the digital divide, this paper argues that inequalities in ICT use in contemporary higher education are of growing rather than diminishing importance. In particular, it argues that there is an urgent need for the higher education community to develop more sophisticated understandings of the nature of the digital divisions that exist...

As this world progresses towards a phase where digital modes of education are no longer considered optional, it has become mandatory and the only means schooling due to effects pandemic, Covid-19. The sector is now entirely under wing digitalization accomplish its objectives. Even though can be carried out through means, ease accessibility for people from every socioeconomic cannot establish co...

A procedure for the isolation of exo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase mutants, by using a plate assay method incorporating a fluorescent substrate, has been developed. A mutant lacking exo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity has been isolated and shown to grow, divide, autolyze, and sporulate as well as the parental strain.

; and the shape function for which minimum is sought is h(x) = 1 X + 0:3=X + 5: Divide and conquer procedure was used to nd zero of gradient. (a) Convergence of gradient to zero. (b) Functional value, at zero of gradient, is reduced to half by doubling grid points. (c) Design variable.

purpose – this paper aims to describe the role of public libraries in bridging the digital divide. the paper firstly reviews the existing literature body in this area and then suggests a number of practical solutions. digital divide is a concept which appears in the area of information and communication technology (ict) since 1990 and refers to the existing inequality in accessing to ict among ...
