Detection of influential actors in social media plays an important role for increasing the quality and efficiency of work and services in many fields such as education, marketing, etc. This work aims to introduce a new approach for the characterization of influential actors in online social media, such as Twitter. We present on a model of influence of an actor that is based on the attractiveness of the actor in terms of the number of other new actors with which he or she has established relations over time. We have used this concept and measure of influence to determine optimal seeds in a simulation of influence maximization using two empirically collected social networks for the underlying graphs.
Social networking sites (SNSs) are an integral part of our daily life. With the evermore increasing appearance of SNSs, their users spend considerable time producing of different forms everyday (e.g. text, videos, photos, links, etc.) or browsing the varieties of contents in different SNSs. In this paper, we propose an architectural perspective on a framework that provides a unified environment through which users can produce and browse different contents of SNSs from one place.
Industry 4.0 is known as the fourth industrial revolution which refers to the integration of technologies that make the factories interoperable by seamlessly connecting machines, employees and sensors for communication. In Industry 4.0, one of the key features is the use of new technologies to recognize the current context. Thus, the employees are supported with contextual information for speeding up decision-making during various processes related to planning, production, maintenance, etc. As a contribution to this area, the work described here aims to introduce a cyber-physical system (CPS) approach to provide context-based and intelligent support to employees in heavy industries using new technologies, especially in the field of mobile devices. In this work, mobile device sensors and image processing techniques are used to recognize the context which requires specific support. In addition, new scenarios and associated processes are developed to support the employees on the basis of new, flexible, adaptive and mobile technologies.
