Legal norms and social behaviours are some of the human aspects surrounding the effectiveness and future of DRM security. Further exploration of these aspects would help unravel the complexities of the interaction between rights protection security and law. Most importantly, understanding the perspectives behind the circumvention of content security may have a significant impact on DRM effectiv...

Multimedia applications are often build in an ad-hoc way lacking a systematic development process. This leads to problems regarding the documentation, design and maintenaince of the application. The paper discusses the features of larger multimedia applications and argues that classical software engineering principles and tools are not allways applicable in this context. The requirements for an...

Past research has explored coach developers’ practice and called for learner-centred education provision. However, understanding of how “learner-centred” policies are reproduced in remains partial. In response, a multiple methods case study three introductory courses. The Bernsteinian concept “framing” was introduced to the first time, used examine developers implemented policy. A composite cre...

The perspective of the patient, also called the "patient voice", is an essential element in materials created for cancer supportive care. Identifying that voice, however, can be a challenge for researchers and developers. A multidisciplinary team at a health information company tasked with addressing this issue created a representational model they call the "cancer experience map". This map, de...

mHealth interventions that deliver content via mobile phones represent a burgeoning area of health behavior change. The current paper examines two themes that can inform the underlying design of mHealth interventions: (1) mobile device functionality, which represents the technological toolbox available to intervention developers; and (2) the pervasive information architecture of mHealth interve...

As the amount of information online continues to grow, a correspondingly important opportunity is for individuals reuse knowledge which has been summarized by others rather than starting from scratch. However, appropriate requires judging relevance, trustworthiness, and thoroughness others' in relation an individual's goals context. In this work, we explore augmenting judgements appropriateness...

To match the NBER business cycle features it is necessary to employ Generalised dynamic categorical (GDC) models that impose certain phase restrictions and permit multiple indexes. Theory suggests additional shape restrictions in the form of monotonicity and boundedness of certain transition probabilities. Maximum likelihood and constraint weighted bootstrap estimators are developed to impose t...
