  • E-Books on the Mobile E-Reader
    Mobile Information Systems 9 (2013) 55–68 55 DOI 10.3233/MIS-2012-0148 IOS Press E-books on the mobile e-reader Chulyun Kim, Ok-Ran Jeong∗, Jaehyuk Choi and Won Kim Department of Software Design and Management, Gachon University, Seongnam, Korea Abstract. The market for e-books has been established during the past several years. Many e-book readers are commercially available, and millions of e-book titles are available for purchase or free download. E-paper technology has matured enough to be used as the screen for dedicated e-book readers which make reading possible with the familiar feel of reading printed books. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review of the status of the e-book, including the architecture and features of e-book readers, market adoption and e-book industry ecosystem. Keywords: E-book, e-paper technology, e-book reader, e-book industry ecosystem 1. Introduction A book organizes texts and images. As texts and images can be stored and retrieved from computers in digital form, the emergence of e-books is only natural. An e-book (electronic book) is a book that is stored in digital form and read on a mobile e-book reader. There are two types of e-book reader: a dedicated e-book reader (such as Amazon’s Kindle, Sony’s PRS Reader), and a multi-function computing device (such as a PC, a tablet computer, a PDA, a smart phone). (Henceforth, we will use the term “e-book reader” to mean either type where a distinction is not necessary.) Figure 1 shows an Amazon Kindle e-book reader.

KEYWORDS Jointly, the two papers describe the results of an interdisciplinary study of three-voiced Svan funeral dirges, known as zär in Svan and zari in Traditional Georgian Georgian. In the present paper, to which we refer as paper 1, we analyze Vocal Music the musical acoustical properties of a new set of field recordings Computational collected during an ethnomusicological field expedition to Georgia in Ethnomusicology 2016. The aim of the study is to investigate the tonal organization of eleven different performances of six different variants of zär, performed Ethnomusicological by singers from different villages. For some of the performances, we Field Recordings observe a strong gradual pitch rise of up to 100 cents per minute. The intra-variant differences in the performances of different groups of singers were observed to be remarkably different, including the use of significantly different harmonic tuning systems. In contrast, two subsequent performances of the Mest’ia variant of zär by a group of singers recorded in Zargǟsh were essentially identical. This demonstrates the widespread absence of improvisational elements in these two performances. One of the most interesting results of our analysis is the observation that the musical structure of zär, expressed, for example, in its ambitus, the complexity of its melodic progression, and its harmonic chord inventory, change systematically along the course of the Enguri valley.

    A Book is a Book is a Book?! – E-Books in the Literary Field Sandra van Lente E-books and e-readers are selling well, their market share has been rising in the last couple of years in the UK (and in Germany). The discussions about these developments often turn into heated, emotional debates. This article offers an overview of the e-book market with spotlights on selected facts, developments, and controversies. E-books sell. According to Nielsen, e- books accounted for 29% of book sales in 2015 (first quarter).1 E-books have become an important factor for pub- lishers, authors and booksellers alike – for some it seems to be more of a threat at present, for others an opportunity. E- books and e-publishing are surrounded by heated and very emotional debates, ranging from content to pricing and culminating in consecration. This arti- cle introduces selected facts, figures and examples and hopes to take some of the emotion out of this field. Screenshot from Foyles’ e-book store Who Makes and Sells E-Books?
