Purpose This paper aims to investigate how actors in the farmer’s network influence the adoption of smart farming technology (SFT) and to understand how social media affects this adoption process, in particular focusing on the influence of social media on trust in knowledge dissemination within the network. Design/methodology/approach The methodol...
Article
The digital transformation in agriculture introduces new challenges in terms of data, knowledge and technology adoption due to critical interoperability issues, and also challenges regarding the identification of the most suitable data sources to be exploited and the information models that must be used. DEMETER (Building an Interoperable, Data-Dri...
Conference Paper
The article focuses on the information security risks that arise from the use of dubious software as part of a DNA-sequencing pipeline. We show how the perpetrator can use a biologically engineered sample that contains the remote machine's IP address and port number to trigger Trojan spyware previously dormant, and create a connection to the remote...

Full-text available
We present the work towards strengthening the security of DNA-sequencing functionality of future bioinformatics systems against bio-computing attacks. Recent research has shown how using common tools, a perpetrator can synthesize biological material, which upon DNA-analysis opens a cyber-backdoor for the perpetrator to hijack control of a computati...

Full-text available
CA-MSNs are more intelligent and user-friendly than conventional online or mobile social networks. We first classify CA-MSNs into four categories, and divide their life cycle into four phases: discovery, connection, interaction, and organization. We then introduce personal and community context, and discuss the corresponding taxonomy. Subsequently,...
Article
The technologies associated with the Internet of Things have great potential for application in the domain of food and agriculture, especially in view of the societal and environmental challenges faced by this sector. From farm to fork, IoT technologies could transform the sector, contributing to food safety, and the reduction of agricultural input...
Chapter
Mobile social computing has exploded into people’s lives during the past 10 years, but to become truly pervasive it needs to be much more context-aware and personalizable. The next generation of social media needs to be able to react and adapt to the physical environments in which people live and act. The SOCIETIES project is integrating research u...
Chapter
Recommending communities in social networks is the problem of detecting, for each member, its membership to one of more communities of other members, where members in each community share some relevant features which guaranteeing that the community as a whole satisfies some desired properties of similarity. As a result, forming these communities re...
Article
The inherent context-awareness properties of pervasive computing and the need for efficient user profiling and location information management quickly made it obvious that context management would become a top priority requirement in telecommunications service platforms. What we now call social networking was ¿born¿ around the early-mid `00s, a tim...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Traditionally, pervasive systems are designed with a focus on the individual, offering services that take advantage of their physical environment and provide a context-aware, personalised user experience. On the other hand, social computing is centred around the notion of a community, leveraging the information about the users and their social rela...
Chapter
With the rapid growth of social networks and users communities the need to attain privacy for end-users becomes mandatory especially with the recent privacy breaches and the inefficiency of anonymisation techniques [1]. The problem of maintaining privacy in recommender services become increasingly important since it aims at finding information that...

This paper discusses service discovery, composition and adaptation, illustrating their usefulness in pervasive mobile environments in which a multitude of services are available to users. It addresses how service discovery and composition, incorporating personalization and context awareness, can provide focused sets of services tailored to a user's...
Article
Natural communication among people happens in flexible ways and is strongly affected by the users’ situation (such as communication tools available, user’s location, and user’s preferences). This situation or context information is seldom used to initiate communication sessions among users. Current communication systems are indifferent about users’...

Pervasive computing is a new and emerging technology. The concept of pervasiveness and its deployment into reality are still not well aligned. This is because the vision of pervasiveness is a highly complex area that encompasses a large number of issues. The real vision of pervasiveness will never become a reality if everyone involved needs to repe...
