An LTS can increase the risks to the privacy and security of individuals. Previous studies have failed to distinguish between losses and violations of privacy when the locations of individuals are recorded by an LTS. We argue that individual privacy is threatened not by the collection of public location information but by the centralization of aggregated information, and by the combination of location information with other personal information. Further, informed consent should be required when the collection of information might cause a violation of privacy.","PeriodicalId":262750,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123086315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a genuine “learning organization” (Peter Senge) and society, the progressive narrowing of “Ingenuity Gaps” (Thomas Homer-Dixon) is likely assured with prevention of a Tragedy of the Commons (Garrett Hardin). What retards and prevents learning for innovations? Paradoxically, one primary obstacle relates to the most successful and entrenched applied solutions that can permeate societies. Such cultural patterns have been historically documented as “progress traps”(Ronald Wright), with consequences of societal decline and collapse. A systemic analytical approach may provide the means to discern what disconnects interacting flows within The Essential Tension (Thomas Kuhn) between an innovative potential and an actual solution, more specifically between “descriptive and prescriptive technologies” (Ursula Franklin). A “Boolean Dynamic”(Stuart Kauffman) as a conceptual navigational tool might serve to advance means for unlocking gridlocks for optimizing requirements, like human-centric and techno-centric balancing as paradoxical contraries to sustain progressive development for complex societies. “Without paradox no progress”, Niels Bohr (1885–1962).","PeriodicalId":262750,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130461675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One strategy for helping ameliorate this chasm is the delivery of “Green-based” higher education. The inefficient use of fossil fuel energy in commuting to and from campus, coupled with the high-energy content associated with production and delivery of print books, suggests an expanded role for distance learning. More specifically, rising gas prices throughout most of 2008 has generated increased interest in using the Internet to support higher education. One specific strategy called blended learning combines the best features of the traditional classroom with the power of the Internet. Providing enhanced blended learning opportunities throughout higher education can contribute to the goal of achieving sustainable growth in a globalized economy. The purpose of this research is to explore how blended learning can serve as an important education vehicle to support sustainable growth on a worldwide basis.","PeriodicalId":262750,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122026695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fulfilling of these duties necessitates the application of certain technologies, all of which gives rise to intergenerational burdens and benefits that could potentially be conflicting. To what extent can we expect sacrifices from our contemporaries if we are to reduce burdens or enhance benefits for people of the future?","PeriodicalId":262750,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130396550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These collective projects have gained widespread popularity as they serve as digital highways for community members to join the information society. This paper explores the role of CWNs in achieving digital inclusion. In particular, we used a survey-based instrument to measure the size and the capacity of a number of networks. We also explored other related variables such as service pricing, funding instruments and the life duration of the investigated CWNs to distinguish them from similar networks. This study provides useful theoretical accounts and analytical insights that we believe that can guide future studies and advance CWNs as a form of common projects. Also, it has the pote4ntial to help policy makers and community developers in promoting such collective projects.","PeriodicalId":262750,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127016929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The United States is among the few nations internationally, that have moved to enact state-level legislation, regarding the microchipping of people in a variety of contexts. This paper provides an overview of nine state laws/bills in the United States of America that have either enacted anti-chipping legislation or have recently proposed bills regarding the enforced chipping of persons. The aim of the paper is to highlight excerpts of legislation, to identify relevant stakeholders the legislation is directed toward and to briefly describe how it may affect their chipping practices. As a final outcome, the paper seeks to broadly compare state legislation, identifying differences in penalties and fines, and to show the complexity of this kind of approach to protecting the rights of citizens against unscrupulous uses of advanced information technologies.","PeriodicalId":262750,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130943900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
