“…Cyberspace itself and the social and information interactions represent an important area of various research (Gálik, 2017;Ghasemi Varjani Iran, 2019;Nyinkeu et al, 2018), including those that focus on its definition in partial aspects (Betz, 2017;Taddeo, 2018). Specifically, cyberspace's structure, properties, and spatiality are discussed (Ning et al, 2018;Saracco, 2019;de Varela, 2018).…”

Over the last thirty years, technology has created a new space (cyberspace) where people meet each other, seek information, or simply try to navigate through. However, there is no consensus in research on the character of cyberspaces and the extent to which they are real. In the first systematic empirical research of this nature, the study found an answer to this question through a survey of metaphorical accounts of university students in Information Studies, and Librarianship (N=102) collected over three years (2019-2021). Cyberspace is a real space in students' experiences, language, and thought structures. A space that allows movement, orientation, and search to be related with one another. An environment in which cognition, learning, and knowledge are structuring activities. Learning and cognition in this space occur differently than in the physical environment, which poses a challenge for developing specific didactic practices and social programs for students. Students perceive cyberspace as linked to the need to acquire new epistemic tools to help them overcome the crisis of knowledge they experience through this space. Keywords: cyberspace, didactic practices, information literacy, metaphors, pragmatism, tacit knowledge, on life

“…Similarly, other scholars categorize identity as a strong and weak identity [10]. Identity management is the process and the framework used to control and manage identities in cyber and cyber-physical systems [11]. IdM is an integrated system that includes authentication of entities, authorization and access privileges methods, and the whole lifecycle process of digital identity like creation, updating, and maintenance by following a set of rules and conditions provided by the moderator of the identity system.…”

Electronic healthcare (eHealth) identity management (IdM) is a pivotal feature in the eHealth system. Distributed ledger technology (DLT) is an emerging technology that can achieve agreements of transactional data states in a decentralized way. Building identity management systems using Blockchain can enable patients to fully control their own identity and provide increased confidence in data immutability and availability. This paper presents the state of the art of decentralized identity management using Blockchain and highlights the possible opportunities for adopting the decentralized identity management approaches for future health identity systems. First, we summarize eHealth identity management scenarios. Furthermore, we investigate the existing decentralized identity management solutions and present decentralized identity models. In addition, we discuss the current decentralized identity projects and identify new challenges based on the existing solutions and the limitations when applying it to healthcare as a particular use case.

“…Cyberspace encompasses various infrastructures such as computers, networks, data and information, hardware and software (Ning, Ye, Amine Bouras, Wei & Daneshmand, 2018), the World Wide Web, the Internet as a whole, and all global media and communication channels are a part of this space (Blakemore, 2012). Ning et al (2018) refer to this space as a digital, virtual, abstract, and time-independent metaphorical space, a space that encompasses globally connected networks of computers and all their related infrastructures and elements. This space has become a consistent part of everyday interaction(s).…”
