Tutkimuksen tavoite oli selvittää yrityksen web toiminnan rakentamisen vaiheita sekä menestyksen mittaamista. Rakennusprosessia tutkittiin viisiportaisen askelmallin avulla. Mallin askeleet ovat; arviointi, strategian muotoilu, suunnitelma, pohjapiirros ja toteutus. Arviointi- ja toteutusvaiheiden täydentämiseksi sekä erityisesti myös internet toiminnan onnistumisen mittaamisen avuksi internet toiminnan hyödyt (CRM,kommunikointi-, myynti-, ja jakelukanava hyödyt markkinoinnin kannalta) käsiteltiin. Toiminnan menestyksen arvioinnin avuksi esiteltiin myös porrasmalli internet toimintaan. Porrasmalli määrittelee kauppakulissi-, dynaaminen-, transaktio- ja e-businessportaat. Tutkimuksessa löydettiin menestystekijöitä internet toimintojen menestykselle. Nämä tekijät ovat laadukas sisältö, kiinnostavuus, viihdyttävyys, informatiivisuus, ajankohtaisuus, personoitavuus, luottamus, interaktiivisuus, käytettävyys, kätevyys, lojaalisuus, suoriutuminen, responssiivisuus ja käyttäjätiedon kerääminen. Mittarit jaettiin tutkimuksessa aktiivisuus-, käyttäytymis- ja muunnosmittareihin. Lisäksi muita mittareita ja menestysindikaattoreita esiteltiin. Nämä menestyksen elementit ja mittarit koottiin yhteen uudessa internet toimintojen menestyksenarviointimallissa. Tutkielman empiirisessä osuudessa,esitettyjä teorioita peilattiin ABB:n (ABB:n sisällä erityisesti ABB Stotz-Kontakt) web toimintaan. Apuna olivat dokumenttianalyysi sekä haastattelut. Empiirinen osa havainnollisti teoriat käytännössä ja toi ilmi mahdollisuuden teorioiden laajentamiseen. Internet toimintojen rakentamismallia voidaan käyttää myös web toimintojen kehittämiseen ja porrasmalli sopii myös nykyisten internet toimintojen arvioimiseen. Mittareiden soveltaminen käytännössä toi kuitenkin ilmi tarpeen niiden kehittämiseen ja aiheen lisätutkimukseen. Niiden tulisi olla myös aiempaatiiviimmin liitetty kokonaisvaltaisen liiketoiminnan menestyksen mittaamiseen.

Websites of academic institutions are the prime source of information about the institution. Libraries, being the main provider of information for the academics, need to be represented in the respective homepages with due importance. Keeping this in mind, this study is an attempt to understand and analyze the presence and presentation of libraries of Engineering Colleges (EC) in Kerala in their respective websites. On the basis of the reviewed literature and an observation of libraries of nationally important institutions imparting technical education in India, a set of criteria were developed for analyzing the websites/web pages. Based on this an extensive survcy of the websites of ECs were done. The collected data was then analyzed using Microsoft Excel. The library websites were then ranked on the basis of this analysis. It was observed that majority of the websites of ECs in Kerala have least representation of their respective libraries. Another important observation is that even the highest scoring libraries satisfy only half of the criteria listed for analysis.

Le Web représente actuellement un espace privilégié d’expression et d’activité pour plusieurs communautés, où pratiques communicationnelles et pratiques documentaires s’enrichissent mutuellement. Dans sa dimension visible ou invisible, le Web constitue aussi un réservoir documentaire planétaire caractérisé non seulement par l’abondance de l’information qui y circule, mais aussi par sa diversité, sa complexité et son caractère éphémère. Les projets d’archivage du Web en cours abordent pour beaucoup cette question du point de vue de la préservation des publications en ligne sans la considérer dans une perspective archivistique. Seuls quelques projets d’archivage du Web visent la préservation du Web organisationnel ou gouvernemental. La valeur archivistique du Web, notamment du Web organisationnel, ne semble pas être reconnue malgré un effort soutenu de certaines archives nationales à diffuser des politiques d’archivage du Web organisationnel. La présente thèse a pour but de développer une meilleure compréhension de la nature des archives Web et de documenter les pratiques actuelles d’archivage du Web organisationnel. Plus précisément, cette recherche vise à répondre aux trois questions suivantes : (1) Que recommandent en général les politiques d’archivage du Web organisationnel? (2) Quelles sont les principales caractéristiques des archives Web? (3) Quelles pratiques d’archivage du Web organisationnel sont mises en place dans des organisations au Québec? Pour répondre à ces questions, cette recherche exploratoire et descriptive a adopté une approche qualitative basée sur trois modes de collecte des données, à savoir : l’analyse d’un corpus de 55 politiques et documents complémentaires relatifs à l’archivage du Web organisationnel; l’observation de 11 sites Web publics d’organismes au Québec de même que l’observation d’un échantillon de 737 documents produits par ces systèmes Web; et, enfin, des entrevues avec 21 participants impliqués dans la gestion et l’archivage de ces sites Web. Les résultats de recherche démontrent que les sites Web étudiés sont le produit de la conduite des activités en ligne d’une organisation et documentent, en même temps, les objectifs et les manifestations de sa présence sur le Web. De nouveaux types de documents propres au Web organisationnel ont pu être identifiés. Les documents qui ont migré sur le Web ont acquis un autre contexte d’usage et de nouvelles caractéristiques. Les méthodes de gestion actuelles doivent prendre en considération les propriétés des documents dans un environnement Web. Alors que certains sites d’étude n’archivent pas leur site Web public, d’autres s’y investissent. Toutefois les choix établis ne correspondent pas toujours aux recommandations proposées dans les politiques d’archivage du Web analysées et ne garantissent pas la pérennité des archives Web ni leur exploitabilité à long terme. Ce constat nous a amenée à proposer une politique type adaptée aux caractéristiques des archives Web. Ce modèle décrit les composantes essentielles d’une politique pour l’archivage des sites Web ainsi qu’un éventail des mesures que pourrait mettre en place l’organisation en fonction des résultats d’une analyse des risques associés à l’usage de son site Web public dans la conduite de ses affaires.

Technological and cultural factors influence access to health information on the web in multifarious ways. We evaluated structural differences and availability of communication services on the web in three diverse language and cultural groups: Chinese, English, and Spanish. A total of 382 web sites were analyzed: 144 were English language sites (38%), 129 were Chinese language sites (34%), and 108 were Spanish language sites (28%). We did not find technical differences in the number of outgoing links per domain or the total availability of communication services between the three groups. There were differences in the distribution of available services between Chinese and English sites. In the Chinese sites, there were more communication services between consumers and health experts. Our results suggest that the health-related web presence of these three cultural groups is technologically comparable, but reflects differences that may be attributable to cultural factors.

It seems as if magazine publishers have only haphazardly listed multiple goals for their websites, and have not carefully reflectedon how to achieve them. We present a framework for defining a magazine's onlinestrategy based on previous studies and on secondary data from the industry. We identify three steps in the strategy process. The first is to determine whether the magazine would actually benefit from online presence: although most magazines will never make money from their websites, a web presence may still be justified. The second step is to choose an optimal online strategy that matches the magazine's competitive strategy. Finally, we argue that magazine publishers should carefully consider to what extent they should allow their readers to be involvedin the web pages. This interactivity could be seen as a key factor in exploiting the unique nature of the Internet. It is our understanding that virtual communities could, at best, be a way of creating more value for a magazine's readers, advertisers and editors, alike. We formulate a typology of five different onlinebusiness concepts for magazines based on these three strategic steps.

The primary objective of this thesis is to assess how the backlink portfolio structure and off site Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) elements influence ranking of UK based online nursery shops. The growth of the internet use demanded significant effort from companies to optimize and increase their online presence in order to cope with the increasing online competition. The new e-Commerce technology - called Search Engine Optimisation - has been developed that helped increase website visibility of companies. The SEO process involves on site elements (i.e. changing the parameters of the company's website such as keywords, title tags and meta descriptions) and off site elements (link building and social media marketing activity). Link Building is based on several steps of marketing planning including keyword research and competitor analysis. The underlying goal of keyword research is to understand the targeted market through identifying relevant keyword queries that are used by targeted costumer group. In the analysis, three types (geographic, field and company’s strategy related) and seven sources of keywords has been identified and used as a base of analysis. Following the determination of the most popular keywords, allinanchor and allintitle search has been conducted and the first ten results of the searches have been collected to identify the companies with the most significant web presence among the nursery shops. Finally, Link Profiling has been performed where the essential goal was to understand to what extent other companies' link structure is different that the base company's backlinks. Significant difference has been found that distinguished the top three companies ranking in the allinanchor and allintitle search. The top three companies, „Mothercare”, „Mamas and Papas” and „Kiddicare” maintained significantly better metrics regarding domain and page authority on the main landing pages, the average number of outbound links for link portfolio metric and in number of backlinks. These companies also ranked among the highest in page authority distribution and followed external linking.

A Tecnologia da Informação por meio da internet propiciou o surgimento de um novo ambiente de negócios no qual empresas, clientes e fornecedores estabelecem contato e se relacionam eletronicamente. Instaurou-se assim o Comércio Eletrônico (CE), atraindo inúmeras organizações motivadas pelas baixas barreiras de entrada e pelas grandes oportunidades de negócio, atualmente associadas no Brasil a um faturamento com crescimento de dois dígitos. Contudo, apesar do CE ser responsável por números expressivos e em ascensão na economia nacional, muitas empresas descobriram que a simples presença na web não se traduz em sucesso e enfrentam a escassez no tráfego de usuários em seus sites. Este trabalho buscou, por meio de um estudo de casos múltiplos, identificar quais aspectos são negligenciados em situações de fracasso por inatividade no CE de uma loja virtual considerada inovadora. Objetivou-se relacionar a iniciativa de CE com a inovação, conceituar uma iniciativa de CE fracassada pela inatividade e identificar os aspectos de inovação não observados em uma iniciativa de CE fracassada pela inatividade. Após uma revisão da literatura de CE e inovação, três proposições foram colocadas visando responder à pergunta de pesquisa. A primeira propõe que as iniciativas de CE podem ser consideradas iniciativas inovadoras, a segunda que a inatividade no CE pode ser considerada um tipo de fracasso e a terceira proposição sugere que a inatividade no CE pode ser associada à inobservância dos aspectos de gestão, recursos humanos (RH), investimentos, tecnologia e mercado. Na fase empírica da pesquisa foram analisadas qualitativamente três empresas varejistas nacionais com iniciativas de CE, porém que convivem com a inatividade em suas lojas virtuais. São elas: a Pégasos, A Esportiva e a MXT. Todas foram consideradas inovadoras, seja sob a perspectiva da inovação de marketing, de processos ou organizacional. Entendendo-se a inatividade como um estado de subutilização do site por parte dos potenciais clientes, conceituou-se a inatividade no CE como um tipo de fracasso, pois o tráfego de visitantes registrado mostrou-se nos três casos insuficiente para o sucesso no atingimento dos objetivos das empresas. Por fim, foi possível afirmar que a inatividade no CE pode ser associada à inobservância dos aspectos de gestão, RH, investimentos, tecnologia e mercado na condução de iniciativas inovadoras. Todavia há indícios que sugerem uma relação entre a relevância destes aspectos e a fase crítica no processo de comercialização on-line vivida pela loja virtual.

This paper is a case study that describes the design and delivery of national PhD lectures with 40 PhD candidates in Digital Arts and Humanities in Ireland simultaneously to four remote locations, in Trinity College Dublin, in University College Cork, in NUI Maynooth and NUI Galway. Blended learning approaches were utilized to augment traditional teaching practices combining: face-to-face engagement, video-conferencing to multiple sites, social media lecture delivery support – a live blog and micro blogging, shared, open student web presence online. Techniques for creating an effective, active learning environment were discerned via a range of learning options offered to students through student surveys after semester one. Students rejected the traditional lecture format, even through the novel delivery method via video link to a number of national academic institutions was employed. Students also rejected the use of a moderated forum as a means of creating engagement across the various institutions involved. Students preferred a mix of approaches for this online national engagement. The paper discusses successful methods used to promote interactive teaching and learning. These included Peer to peer learning, Workshop style delivery, Social media. The lecture became a national, synchronous workshop. The paper describes how allowing students to have a voice in the virtual classroom they become animated and engaged in an open culture of shared experience and scholarship, create networks beyond their institutions, and across disciplinary boundaries. We offer an analysis of our experiences to assist other educators in their course design, with a particular emphasis on social media engagement.

Increasingly, people's digital identities are attached to, and expressed through, their mobile devices. At the same time digital sensors pervade smart environments in which people are immersed. This paper explores different perspectives in which users' modelling features can be expressed through the information obtained by their attached personal sensors. We introduce the PreSense Ontology, which is designed to assign meaning to sensors' observations in terms of user modelling features. We believe that the Sensing Presence ( PreSense ) Ontology is a first step toward the integration of user modelling and "smart environments". In order to motivate our work we present a scenario and demonstrate how the ontology could be applied in order to enable context-sensitive services. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.

The change of paradigm imposed by the Bologna process, in which the student will be responsible for their own learning, and the presence of a new generation of students with higher technological skills, represent a huge challenge for higher education institutions. The use of new Web Social concepts in teaching process, supported by applications commonly called Web 2.0, with which these new students feel at ease, can bring benefits in terms of motivation and the frequency and quality of students' involvement in academic activities. An e-learning platform with web-based applications as a complement can significantly contribute to the development of different skills in higher education students, covering areas which are usually in deficit.

The complexity of systems is considered an obstacle to the progress of the IT industry. Autonomic computing is presented as the alternative to cope with the growing complexity. It is a holistic approach, in which the systems are able to configure, heal, optimize, and protect by themselves. Web-based applications are an example of systems where the complexity is high. The number of components, their interoperability, and workload variations are factors that may lead to performance failures or unavailability scenarios. The occurrence of these scenarios affects the revenue and reputation of businesses that rely on these types of applications. In this article, we present a self-healing framework for Web-based applications (SHõWA). SHõWA is composed by several modules, which monitor the application, analyze the data to detect and pinpoint anomalies, and execute recovery actions autonomously. The monitoring is done by a small aspect-oriented programming agent. This agent does not require changes to the application source code and includes adaptive and selective algorithms to regulate the level of monitoring. The anomalies are detected and pinpointed by means of statistical correlation. The data analysis detects changes in the server response time and analyzes if those changes are correlated with the workload or are due to a performance anomaly. In the presence of per- formance anomalies, the data analysis pinpoints the anomaly. Upon the pinpointing of anomalies, SHõWA executes a recovery procedure. We also present a study about the detection and localization of anomalies, the accuracy of the data analysis, and the performance impact induced by SHõWA. Two benchmarking applications, exercised through dynamic workloads, and different types of anomaly were considered in the study. The results reveal that (1) the capacity of SHõWA to detect and pinpoint anomalies while the number of end users affected is low; (2) SHõWA was able to detect anomalies without raising any false alarm; and (3) SHõWA does not induce a significant performance overhead (throughput was affected in less than 1%, and the response time delay was no more than 2 milliseconds).

TeliaSoneran älykkään viestintäjärjestelmän kehitysluonnoksella (SME) pilotoidaan prototyyppipalveluita, joiden avulla asiakkaat voivat välittää viestejä matkapuhelimilla sekä tietokoneilla. SME:n peruspalveluita voidaan käyttää SIP-standardin mukaisilla asiakasohjelmilla sekä SME:n omilla WAP- ja WWW-käyttöliittymillä. Käyttäjät voivat nähdä toistensa tilatiedon, muuttaa omaa tilatietoaan sekä lähettää SIP-pikaviestejä, sähköpostiviestejä ja tekstiviestejä. Käyttäjät voivat myös ylläpitää listaa yhteyshenkilöistään, vastaanottaa pikaviestejä ja selata vastaanotettuja viestejä. Diplomityössä käsitellään yleisesti SME-järjestelmän rakennetta ja paneudutaan tutkimaan työssä toteutetun SME:n WWW-asiakasohjelman toteutusta. Diplomityössä käydään läpi projektiin liittyviä standardeja, suosituksia, toteustekniikoita sekä palveluita. Lisäksi tarkastellaan työssä hyödynnettyjä ohjelmointirajapintoja, nykyisiä älypuhelimia sekä niiden Internet-selaimia, jotka rajoittavat WWW-asiakaspalvelun toteutuksessa käytettyjä toteutustekniikkavaihtoehtoja. Lopuksi esitellään toteutettujen ohjelmistojen sisäistä rakennetta ja toimintaa.
