  • An Analysis of Factors Influencing Transmission of Internet Memes of English-Speaking Origin in Chinese Online Communities
    ISSN 1798-4769 Journal of Language Teaching and Research, Vol. 8, No. 5, pp. 969-977, September 2017 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17507/jltr.0805.19 An Analysis of Factors Influencing Transmission of Internet Memes of English-speaking Origin in Chinese Online Communities Siyue Yang Shanxi Normal University, Linfen, China Abstract—Meme, as defined in Dawkins' 1976 book 'The Selfish Gene', is "an idea, behaviour or style that spreads from person to person within a culture". Internet meme is an extension of meme, with the defining characteristic being its spread via Internet. While online communities of all cultures generate their own memes, owing to the colossal amount of content in English and the long & widespread adoption of Internet across all strata of society in English-speaking countries, the vast majority of high-impact and well-documented memes have their origin in English-speaking communities. In addition to their spread in the original culture sphere, some of these prominent memes have also crossed the cultural boundaries and entered the parlance of Chinese Internet communities. This paper seeks to give a brief introduction to Internet memes in general, and explore the factors that control and/or facilitate a meme’s ability to enter Chinese communities. Index Terms—Internet meme, cross-cultural communication, Chinese Internet I. INTRODUCTION Internet meme, an extension of the term "meme" first coined by Richard Dawkins (1976) in his work The Selfish Gene (p. 192), refers to the unique form of meme that spreads through the Internet. Internet memes in their various forms currently enjoy substantial popularity among Internet users all around the globe, and are flourishing and becoming increasingly entrenched in the mainstream culture of all the disparate societies in this connected world.

  • EFFICIENT ROUTING PROTOCOL in DELAY TOLERANT NETWORKS (Dtns)
    Degree Programme in Communication Engineering MORTEZA KARIMZADEH EFFICIENT ROUTING PROTOCOL IN DELAY TOLERANT NETWORKS (DTNs) MASTER OF SCIENCE THESIS Examiners: Prof. Yevgeni Koucheryavy Dr. Dmitri Moltchanov Examiners and topic approved in the Computing and Electrical Engineering Faculty Council meeting on 6th April, 2011 II Abstract TAMPERE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY Master’s Degree Programme in Information Technology, Department of Communication Engineering Karimzadeh, Morteza: Efficient Routing Protocol in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) Master of Science Thesis, 47 pages May 2011 Major: Communication Engineering Examiners: Professor Yevgeni Koucheryavy and Dr. Dmitri Moltchanov Keywords: Delay Tolerant Networks, Opportunistic networking, Forwarding mechanism, Routing protocol, Epidemic routing, Network coding Modern Internet protocols demonstrate inefficient performance in those networks where the connectivity between end nodes has intermittent property due to dynamic topology or resource constraints. Network environments where the nodes are characterized by opportunistic connectivity are referred to as Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs). Highly usable in numerous practical applications such as low-density mobile ad hoc networks, command/response military networks and wireless sensor networks, DTNs have been one of the growing topics of interest characterized by significant amount of research efforts invested in this area over the past decade. Routing is one of the major components significantly affecting the overall performance of DTN networks in terms of resource consumption, data delivery and latency. Over the past few years a number of routing protocols have been proposed. The focus of this thesis is on description, classification and comparison of these protocols. We discuss the state-of- the-art routing schemes and methods in opportunistic networks and classify them into two main deterministic and stochastic routing categories.

  • Consumer Organizations and Promotion of Sustainable Energy Consumption: Comparative Product Quality Testing and Its Impact
    Panel III, 04 – Wahnschafft/Huh Consumer Organizations and Promotion of Sustainable Energy Consumption: Comparative Product Quality Testing and its Impact Ralph WAHNSCHAFFT Energy Resources Section, United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and Pacific (UN-ESCAP), Bangkok, Thailand Kwisun HUH Department of Environmental Science & Engineering, Hanguk University of Foreign Studies, Seoul, Republic of Korea 1 - SYNOPSIS This paper reports selected preliminary results of an ongoing survey on consumer organizations. It analyzes comparative product quality testing and its potential impact on promotion of energy efficiency. 2 - ABSTRACT The paper provides an overview on consumer organizations in OECD and high income developing countries, in particular with regard to their consumer information activities. It focuses on a review of comparative product testing of selected electrical home appliances and on test reports in consumer interest magazines. The paper analyzes the relative weights allocated to the different product quality criteria, including energy efficiency. Based on the above the paper reflects on the role that consumer organizations can play in the promotion of “green consumerism” and sustainable energy consumption, in particular with regard to the residential sector. 3 - INTRODUCTION 3.1. Background and objectives Advancing commercialization of societies has brought with it the formation of a growing number of local and national consumer interest groups. Today, Consumers International, the largest federation of consumer organizations and agencies worldwide, counts 243 member organizations in over 110 countries (1). Individual organizations greatly differ in their membership and organization, their sources of financing and government sponsorship, their work methods, activities and relative political influence. However, enhancement of consumer protection and better consumer information are overall common objectives that unite the “consumer movement”.

Forma de citar: Castaño, D., C.M. (2013). Defining and characterizing the concept of Internet Meme. Revista CES Psicología, 6(2),82-104.. Abstract The research aims to create a formal definition of “Internet Meme” (IM) that can be used to characterize and study IMs in academic contexts such as social, communication sciences and humanities. Different perspectives of the term meme were critically analysed and contrasted, creating a contemporary concept that synthesizes different meme theorists’ visions about the term. Two different kinds of meme were found in the contemporary definitions, the meme-gene, and the meme- virus. The meme-virus definition and characteristics were merged with definitions of IM taken from the Internet in the light of communication theories, in order to develop a formal characterization of the concept.

    PRIVATIZZAZIONI E LIBERO MERCATO: risparmio reale per i consumatori? MARTEDÌ, 17 DICEMBRE 2013 Ore 14,30 – 18,30 Teatro VITTORIA Torino – Via Gramsci n. 4 Il consumo costituisce il punto di partenza delle attività economiche ed il suo ruolo è stato incrementato dallo sviluppo delle economie di scambio che, negli ultimi decenni, ne hanno accentuato i significati segnaletici e relazionali. Infatti è un’adeguata tutela dei consumatori a permettere un migliore funzionamento dei sistemi economici, emarginando le imprese scorrette, consolidando i diritti dei cittadini e promuovendo lo sviluppo economico e sociale. Origini americane del concetto di tutela dei consumatori Un prima forma di movimento in difesa dei consumatori ha origine negli Stati Uniti d’America , dove prima che in ogni altro paese al mondo, si crearono le condizioni per la nascita ed il veloce sviluppo di un capitalismo monopolistico ed oligopolistico. Un primo evento che segna l’inizio delle politiche in favore dei consumatori è la normativa Antitrust (Sherman Act) del 1890, che non era né voluta per servire a quello scopo, ma per proteggere il piccolo commercio e la produzione artigianale dallo strapotere dei monopolisti e delle grandi concentrazioni industriali. Lo Sherman Act, applicato la prima volta nel 1911 nella causa contro l’impero Rockefeller, infatti, escludeva tutte le azioni che tendevano a creare un profitto da una situazione di monopolio. Nella prima parte la legge proibiva tutte le pratiche che restringevano le chance della concorrenza, come ad esempio il controllo sui prezzi; nella seconda parte, invece, proibiva alle imprese che detenevano il monopolio su un settore di mercato di servirsene per estenderlo ad altri settori.

Cross-border telemarketing fraud remains one of the most pervasive forms of white-collar crime in Canada and the United States. The PhoneBusters National Call Centre estimates that on any given day, there are 500 to 1,000 criminal telemarketing boiler rooms, grossing about $1 billion a year, operating in Canada. (3) ! Several types of cross-border telemarketing fraud have increased substantially from 1997 to 2002: fraudulent prize and lottery schemes; fraudulent loan offers; and fraudulent offers of low-interest credit cards or credit-card protection. (3) ! Seven trends in cross-border telemarketing fraud since 1997 are especially noteworthy: • (1) Types of Telemarketing Fraud “Pitches”. The most prevalent among Canadian-based telemarketing fraud operations are fraudulent offers of prizes or lotteries; fraudulent loan offers; and fraudulent offers of low- interest credit cards or credit-card protection. (5) • (2) Methods of Transmitting Funds. Criminal telemarketers generally prefer their victims to use electronic payment services, such as Western Union and Travelers Express MoneyGram, to send funds for the promised goods or services.

  • “War of Platforms” the Rivalry Between Cable and DSL to Win the “Triple Play” Customer
    “War of Platforms” The rivalry between Cable and DSL to win the “Triple Play” Customer Executive Summary Competition shifts from individual services to Triple Play Today, television cable as well as DSL are in a position to offer TV, Internet and telephony as a product bundle (“Triple Play“). Thus, for the first time, direct competition ensues between these infrastructures. Throughout Europe, the Triple Play market will grow rapidly, increasing from the current € 0.7 billion to approximately € 7.5 billion by 2010, reflecting a tenfold increase. TV-over-DSL will be utilized by approximately 1.4 million German households by 2010 In the near future, the largest German infrastructure-based DSL providers will be aggressively marketing and offering DSL television. However, in contrast to other European countries, the market potential is limited by the structure of the TV market. TV cable goes Triple Play: 1.6 million German broadband Internet customers by 2010 Cable television is facing an impending growth spurt. Due to accelerated upgrading of the networks, cable will have achieved a 9% market share of broadband households by 2010.
