Processes of knowledge production and dissemination are increasingly set in an international context. In research and higher education the links between local actors and the international environments are both proliferating and intensifying. Individual level self-organised international collaboration is increasingly supplemented by national and supranational organised activities, and by market oriented activity with a global scope. Starting from these observations, this book analyses patterns of internationalisation comprising the national and supranational level, the level of higher education institutions and private companies, as well as the level of individual researchers and graduates. As a laboratory for studying internationalisation the book uses the case of Norway, a small knowledge system set in an open society, political system and economy. The case offers exceptionally good data on the developments in its research and higher education system that record changes over time and across the different parts and levels of a national knowledge system

English | 2023 | ISBN: 1978834373 | 239 Pages | PDF (True) | 3 MB
Twenty-first century fashion practice has become increasingly borderless and diverse in the digital era, calling into question the very boundaries that define fashion in the Western cultural context. Borderless Fashion Practice: Contemporary Fashion in the Metamodern Age principally engages the work of four fashion designers – Virgil Abloh, Aitor Throup, Iris Van Herpen, and Eckhaus Latta – whose work intersects with other creative disciplines such as art, technology, science, architecture, and graphic design. They do their work in what Vanessa Gerrie calls the metamodern age – the time and place where the polarization between the modern and the postmodern collapses. Used as a framework to understand the current Western cultural zeitgeist, Gerrie’s exploration of the work of contemporary practitioners and theorists finds blurred borders and seeks to blur them further, to the point of erasure.

2010 | 148 Pages | ISBN: 1587058863 | PDF | 2 MB
Today’s new Web 2.0, virtualization, mobility, telepresence, and collaborative applications offer immense potential for business advantage. However, they also introduce daunting new security issues – many of which are already being exploited by hackers, crackers, and other cybercriminals. Secure Collaboration is the first book entirely focused on understanding, managing, and mitigating the security risks associated with today’s new collaborative technologies. It brings together systematic, up-to-the-minute decision-making and technical guidance for companies of all sizes: specific information, techniques, and best practices for protecting today’s new systems without compromising their business benefits. Cisco security technology expert Tom Gillis guides you through several common collaborative scenarios, from Cisco Webex conferencing to social networking and ERP usage. For each, he systematically identifies new and emerging security risks, and presents proven best-practice responses – ranging from revised Acceptable Use and Data Loss Prevention policies to technology solutions.The book’s extensive high-level coverage of technology solutions covers Cisco offerings for managing identity, and for securing networks, contents, endpoints, applications, and more. Gillis concludes with a preview of Web 3.0 – and what it will take to secure those applications, too.
