Towards a heuristic frame for transferring e-government technology     

Gabriel Marcuzzo do Canto Cavalheiro  Luiz Antonio Joia 《Government Information Quarterly》2014

This article addresses challenges in accomplishing technology transfer process involving the adaptation and implementation of e-government applications from a donor country to a recipient country. Here it is claimed that prior e-government research has overlooked existing technology transfer literature from the field of knowledge management. This work is aimed at addressing the underlying issues associated with the transfer of e-government technology, given different characteristics of donor and recipient organizations in terms of the socio-economic context and the dynamics of the technological infrastructure. Based on a review, interpretation, and synthesis of a broad range of both technology transfer, e-government and knowledge management literature, we extend the Information Technology Transfer Life-Cycle Model, as this well-known model was derived entirely based on empirical evidence. To this end, we propose a heuristic frame for e-government technology transfer. Finally, five propositions accrued from both the literature review and the proposed heuristic frame are set forth to be further tested, in order to better understand the process dynamics of e-government technology transfer between countries.  相似文献   

From the Periphery to Center Stage: The Effects and Exploitation of the Other in Titus Andronicus and Assassin’s Creed III     

Marco Antonio Rodriguez 《The Communication Review》2014,17(3):245-255

Aaron the Moor from Titus Andronicus and Ratonhnhaké:ton from Assassin’s Creed III are each aiding in a war against an international superpower, and both characters are plotting ways to advance and improve their respective culture. Aaron is seen as the villain and the antagonist, whereas Ratonhnhaké:ton is seen as an individual who fights for freedom. However, once both characters’ usefulness is exhausted, they are easily characterized as the Other and lose whatever benefits they may have earned. They are tossed aside by the factions they are trying to help. Even though Assassin’s Creed III is a video game, the same issues of colonialism and imperialism can be investigated in this 21st-century genre as in Shakespeare’s play.  相似文献

Lexical and Syntactic knowledge for Information Retrieval     

Antonio Ferrández 《Information processing & management》2011

Traditional Information Retrieval (IR) models assume that the index terms of queries and documents are statistically independent of each other, which is intuitively wrong. This paper proposes the incorporation of the lexical and syntactic knowledge generated by a POS-tagger and a syntactic Chunker into traditional IR similarity measures for including this dependency information between terms. Our proposal is based on theories of discourse structure by means of the segmentation of documents and queries into sentences and entities. Therefore, we measure dependencies between entities instead of between terms. Moreover, we handle discourse references for each entity. It has been evaluated on Spanish and English corpora as well as on Question Answering tasks obtaining significant increases.  相似文献   

Improving semistatic compression via phrase-based modeling     

Nieves R. Brisaboa  Antonio Fariña  Gonzalo Navarro  José R. Paramá 《Information processing & management》2011

In recent years, new semistatic word-based byte-oriented text compressors, such as Tagged Huffman and those based on Dense Codes, have shown that it is possible to perform fast direct search over compressed text and decompression of arbitrary text passages over collections reduced to around 30–35% of their original size. Much of their success is due to the use of words as source symbols and a byte-oriented target alphabet. This approach broke with traditional statistical compressors, which use characters as source symbols and a bit-oriented target alphabet.  相似文献   

The effect of playing formation on high-intensity running and technical profiles in English FA Premier League soccer matches

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of playing formation on high-intensity running and technical performance during elite soccer matches. Twenty English FA Premier League games were analysed using a multiple-camera computerized tracking system (n = 153 players). Overall ball possession did not differ (P < 0.05) between 4-4-2, 4-3-3 and 4-5-1 formations (50%, s = 7 vs. 49%, s = 8 vs. 44%, s = 6). No differences were observed in high-intensity running between 4-4-2, 4-3-3 and 4-5-1 formations. Compared with 4-4-2 and 4-3-3 formations, players in a 4-5-1 formation performed less very high-intensity running when their team was in possession (312 m, s = 196 vs. 433 m, s = 261 vs. 410 m, s = 270; P 5 0.05) but more when their team was not in possession (547 m, s = 217 vs. 461 m, s = 156 vs. 459 m, s = 169; P < 0.05). Attackers in a 4-3-3 performed ~30% more (P < 0.05) high-intensity running than attackers in 4-4-2 and 4-5-1 formations. However, the fraction of successful passes was highest in a 4-4-2 (P < 0.05) compared with 4-3-3 and 4-5-1 formations. The results suggest that playing formation does not influence the overall activity profiles of players, except for attackers, but impacts on very high-intensity running activity with and without ball possession and some technical elements of performance.  相似文献
