- The Internet beside providing many advantages has some disadvantages. The full unfamiliarity with cyberspace can bring harms and inconvenience to families. This study attempted to introduce the disadvantages and threats on the Internet and present some countermeasures to decrease such threats and harms. Social networks are currently so epidemic that even many companies and organizations formally supply the internal communication system among their members and employees through this social networks and the number of the users of such networks is increasing daily. The term “information security” covers a broad spectrum of activities in an organization. Information security means preventing the unauthorized access to information and products or apply some changes or delete such information using a series of processes. Such actions can be considered as a protection package against current resources in different situations (e.g., a hacker attacks which occurs a lot) by those in charge of information security. One of the most important issues which is considered as a security challenge in these networks is the security and retention of the data and information shared by users from unauthorized access and unwanted disclosure. In this article the Kuleshov effect from cinema has been deployed to explain and launch a behavioral analysis of online activities.

- Intensified and matured use of internet-based technologies aimed to facilitate development and innovation are increasingly characterized by a mixture of physical and digital locations; commonly referred to as places and spaces. The aim of this paper was therefore to identify different types of places and spaces central for the innovation milieus and processes of Living Lab projects, illustrate their impact on both process and results, and develop guidelines for space that can be designed in order to facilitate value-driven and democratized innovation. Based on a literature review and a cross case analyses different aspects of space, relevant for Innovation and Living Lab studies, have been identified: 1) local-global; 2) physical and digital, and 3) private-public. In the paper we focus on these concepts as tools for understanding present day innovation and we examples of how digital technology has influenced placement and permeability in relation to place and space.

Towards a unified definition of Urban Living Labs
- 2018
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In today’s ongoing urbanisation and the climate changes there is anincreasing demand on cities to be innovative and inclusive to solve these issues.As an answer to these challenges, the concept of Urban Living Labs has startedto emerge. These Urban Living Labs aims to involve citizens in the process ofdeveloping the city. To date, there is a confusion concerning these UrbanLiving Labs are, what their objective is, their characteristics and theirorganisation. Hence, in this paper we build on the ongoing project UNaLab andthe city representatives perspective of what an Urban Living Lab is and how itcan contribute to their city´s challenges, to define Urban Living Labs and itsthree dimensions.

- In today’s ongoing urbanization and escalating climate change, there is an increasing demand on cities to be innovative and inclusive to handle these emerging issues. As an answer to these challenges, and in order to generate and adopt sustainable innovations and nature-based solutions in the urban areas, the concept of urban living labs has emerged. However, to date, there is confusion concerning the concept of the urban living lab and its key components. Some interpret the urban living lab as an approach, others as a single project, and some as a specific place – and some just do not know. In order to unravel this complexity and better understand this concept, we sought to identify the key components of an urban living lab by discussing the perspective of city representatives in the context of an urban living lab project. To achieve this goal, we reviewed previous literature on this topic and carried out two workshops with city representatives, followed by an open-ended questionnaire. In this article, we identify and discuss seven key components of an urban living lab: governance and management structure; financing models; urban context; nature-based solutions; partners and users (including citizens); approach; and ICT and infrastructure. We also offer an empirically derived definition of the urban living lab concept.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Many technologies have been used in education. Such technologies fall under three main types: learning management systems; education data mining; and AI-enabled technologies. This report focuses on the use of robotics in interactive education. Over the past few years, interest in utilization of robotics in education has increased. Multiple attempts have been made, globally, in order to introduce robotics in education. Our report reveals that robotics have been used in education either in front scene acting as a teacher or in back scene supporting the teaching process. Our report also reveals that robotics are able to address unsolved educational issues such as achievement gaps and teachers gaps, in addition to the assistance it provides in some specific use cases. Further research efforts are indeed required to fully understand the exact role, current and future, or robotics in education. The report also introduce some challenges in using robotics in education e.g., Communication breakdowns, navigation capabilities, and the feeling of remote students

A Living Lab Perspective on Information Systems Development Process
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Advances in Information Systems Development. - : Springer Nature. ; , s. 19-34
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article explores the information systems development (ISD) process when ISD follows a living lab approach. A living lab is an innovation development approach in which stakeholders are involved in cocreating, implementing, testing and adopting innovations in a real-life setting. Several aspects of living lab settings, such as the voluntary nature of user engagement, the real-life context of innovation development and the resulting difficulty of observation, and the immaturity of innovation in living lab activities, influence the ISD process in living lab settings. Accordingly, the aim of this paper is to understand how the ISD process is shaped when ISD follows a living lab approach. The aim will be achieved by conducting four participatory knowledge generation workshops as the primary sources of empirical data in the context of three European projects (namely, AdaptUrbanRail, UNaLab, and LiLaCC) as well as an international conference (DLLD20). A SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis of the ISD process following the living lab approach will also be presented.

A Taxonomy of Factors Influencing Drop-Out Behaviour in Living Lab Field Tests
- 2018
-
Ingår i: Technology Innovation Management Review. - : Carleton University. - 1927-0321. ; , s. 5-21
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The concept of a “living lab” is a relatively new research area and phenomenon that facilitates user engagement in open innovation activities. Studies on living labs show that the users’ motivation to participate in a field test is higher at the beginning of the project than during the rest of the test, and that participants have a tendency to drop out before completing the assigned tasks. However, the literature still lacks theories describing the phenomenon of drop-out within the area of field tests in general and living lab field tests in particular. As the first step in constructing a theoretical discourse, the aims of this study are to present an empirically derived taxonomy for the various factors that influence drop-out behaviour; to provide a definition of “drop-out” in living lab field tests; and to understand the extent to which each of the identified items influence participant drop-out behaviour. To achieve these aims, we first extracted factors influencing drop-out behaviour in the field test from our previous studies on the topic, and then we validated the extracted results across 14 semi-structured interviews with experts in living lab field tests. Our findings show that identified reasons for dropping out can be grouped into three themes: innovation-related, process-related, and participant-related. Each theme consists of three categories with a total of 44 items. In this study, we also propose a unified definition of “drop-out” in living lab field tests.

Criteria for Quality Assurance to Develop MOOC Courses on Climate Change
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of The 4th International Academic Conference on Education.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article is focused on identifying criteria for quality assurance to develop Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), with a particular emphasis on developing MOOC on the usage of disruptive information technologies (DITs) as tools to work on climate change mitigation efforts. The research has been done within the context of Living Laboratory in Climate Change (LiLaCC) project, which is an Erasmus+ Capacity-Building project in the field of Higher Education, with its six university partners in Europe and Africa. In so doing, a literature review on understanding criteria for quality assurance for MOOCs has been conducted. The literature review then formed the basis to develop empirical data collection tool, i.e., open-ended questionnaire. The six university partners then reflected on the identified criteria and also identified several other aspects that needs to be taken into account, when it comes to develop MOOCs, with a particular focus on climate change issues. Accordingly, eight overarching themes for quality assurance were identified, namely 1) organization of the lecture, 2) teaching quality, 3) methodology, 4) technical aspects, 5) motivation and culture, 6) delivery of MOOCs, 7) assessment, and 8) dissemination and promotion of MOOCs. Each of the themes includes several factors for quality assurance that can be used by both university researchers as well as practitioners in the field. The article provides a regulatory framework for matters related to teaching, learning, supervision and admissions to the MOOC in climate change.

Drop-out in living lab field test : analyzing consequences and some recommendations
- 2018
-
Ingår i: Twenty-Sixth European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS2018), Portsmouth, UK, 2018.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Involving individual users in the process of information systems development is a key dimension of open innovation. Living Labs are socio-technical systems that facilitate information systems development by integrating technical, social and organizational structures and focusing on individuals, tasks, technologies and the interactions between different stakeholders. Testing digital innovations in real-life use context is one of the key components of Living Labs. The users’ motivations to participate in Living Lab field tests at the beginning of the project are usually higher than once the field tests are underway. However, there is a dearth of research on other issues related to participants’ drop-out in Living Lab field tests. This study contributes to the existing literature by investigating the consequences of drop-out in Living Lab field tests and providing recommendations that would facilitate prolonged user engagement. The paper also discusses some ethical considerations regarding involvement of participants within Living Lab field tests. In doing so, we interviewed fourteen Living Lab experts in two Living Labs in Sweden and Belgium. Based on these interviews, we propose a first set of consequences, recommendations and ethical considerations to take into account when setting up Living Lab field tests. Keywords: User
