“…This class, named TestNearTweet, overloads two methods guiIn and guiOut that specifies how a virtual user provides input to the application and test output from the application. For the NearTweet application, input is performed by typing text in the input panel and pressing a button (lines 11-14), and output validation requires testing either the status panel (lines [22][23][24][25] or the output panel (lines [26][27][28][29]. Because the input and output places are parameterized by the T-Net graph, the tester methods receive an identifier (id for short) to differentiate in/out operations, and a parameter list of values to be used by the tester methods.…”

“…This capability has prompted new mobile applications that leverage occasional encounters of users in various social contexts, e.g., for mobile social networking [22,13,9], content sharing [15,12], mobile ad-hoc gaming [5,16], and more [19,21,31,24]. Specialized middleware [3, 32,25,18,7] has also been produced to facilitate the development of such applications.…”

Cutting-edge mobile devices like smartphones and tablets are equipped with various infrastructureless wireless interfaces, such as WiFi Direct and Bluetooth. Such technologies allow for novel mobile applications that take advantage of casual encounters between co-located users. However, the need to mimic the behavior of real-world encounter networks makes testing and debugging of such applications hard tasks.We present Termite, an emulation testbed for encounter networks. Our system allows developers to run their applications on a virtual encounter network emulated by software. Developers can model arbitrary encounter networks and specify user interactions on the emulated virtual devices. To facilitate testing and debugging, developers can place breakpoints, inspect the runtime state of virtual nodes, and run experiments in a stepwise fashion. Termite defines its own Petri Net variant to model the dynamically changing topology and synthesize user interactions with virtual devices. The system is designed to efficiently multiplex an underlying emulation hosting infrastructure across multiple developers, and to support heterogeneous mobile platforms. Our current system implementation supports virtual Android devices communicating over WiFi Direct networks and runs on top of a local cloud infrastructure. We evaluated our system using emulator network traces, and found that Termite is expressive and performs well.

“…Innentől egy-egy hely az ott jelenlévőkkel és az ott a zajló eseményekkel együtt címkézhető, az így keletkező információk helyhez kötötten termelődnek tovább, big data elemzéssel pedig visszacsatolhatók például egy szolgáltatás frissítéséhez. Minden lehetőséges előny mellett ezek a szolgáltatások komoly adatbiztonsági kér-déseket is felvetnek az interaktív kommunikációban (Jabeur, Zeadally, Saye 2013). Az e-részvételtől a mobil részvétel felé mozdul el az online jelenlét (de Reuver, Stein, Hampe 2013), ami számos jogi és morális kérdést vet fel.…”

Célom bemutatni azokat a trendeket és forrásokat, melyek együttesen szoros átfedést mutatnak a megjelölt témakörökben és kijelölni a vizsgálatokhoz szükséges alapfogalmakat, jelenségeket. A munka először az interkonnektivitás és a digitális ökoszisztéma alappilléreit vizsgálja, alkalmazva az információs és hálózati társadalom kapcsolódó forrásainak kiemelt következtetéseit, majd az új média vonatkozó, aktuális trendjeiről adok rövid betekintést, megemlítve az augmentálódó és virtualizálódó környezetek egyes feltörekvő innovációit térbeli kontextusban. A regioná-lis és lokális digitális identitás kutatási lehetőségeit ez alapján definiálom, kiemelve a földrajzi-társadalmi (geo-social) média és az online kontextuális beágyazottság szempontjait. A kulcskérdések, a legfontosabb fogalmak és trendek összefoglalása mellett a tanulmány végül ajánlásokat fogalmaz meg a jövőbeni regionális kutatásokhoz: mely vizsgálati területek, eszközök és módszertani megfontolások váltak megkerülhetetlenné.

Abstract-Demands on safe, high-quality and healthy food are unprecedentedly increasing in both emerging economies and advanced countries. Food safety incidents and scandals, frequently breaking out around the world, are significantly reducing the confidence of consumers in food safety and quality. It is even more difficult to achieve the full transparency, visibility and traceability of dynamic cross-border and global food supply chains, which is critical to ensure food safety and quality, due to: the personalization and globalization of consumer demands; the diversities of food products, raw materials and ingredients; the loose relationships between food business partners; the technology and resource barriers in aligning business processes, coordinating and sharing information; and the changing government supervision mechanisms and standards. Social networking technologies and social software are promising enablers to facilitate end consumers, food companies and government agencies to participate in open discussion, comments and feedback on the quality and safety of cross-border foods. They are able to connect, interact, communicate and collaborate with each other in loose, open, effective and flexible ways for enhancing the transparency and visibility of cross-border and global food supply chains through collective wisdom and intelligence. In this paper a framework is proposed for developing social networks enabling food traceability systems, which not only leverages enterprise Manuscript received November 8, 2013.
