by Paolo Perego Nima TaheriNejad Maurizio CaonThis book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second EAI International Conference on Wearables in Healthcare, HealthWear 2020. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 16 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. They focus on wearable devices and systems for healthcare and wellbeing. The papers are organized in topical sections as follows: PPG and algorithms focusing on photoplethysmography, PPG monitoring and cardiorespiratory measurement. The next section focus on IoT and smart sensors on the use of wearable devices and systems for Internet of Medical Things application. The third section is a new session introducing wearable applications. This track focuses on the intrinsic multidisciplinary of wearable devices, and includes works on methodology and design aspect of wearable research.
Wearing Embodied Emotions
by Seçil UğurToday, people are in an era of digitally mediated Human-to-Human Interaction, which cannot provide full sensorial contact and therefore, emotions cannot be communicated completely. The intimate cover of the human body, i.e. garment is the interface, where many personal traits are embodied. With the improvements in textile and electronics industry, this embodiment can be carried on a higher level, where the garments become dynamic interfaces and extensions of the human body. This book consists of a research on skin, clothes and technology as extensions of human body, emotions, technology-mediated emotions and a design practice that explores the communicative level of wearable technology through turning it into a living surface, which can convert intangible data to tangible in order to provide an emotional communication. This book aims to show how Human-Technology interaction is carried into an alternative context, where technology dissolves in use and starts serving for enhancing HHI.
Weaving the Dark Web: Legitimacy on Freenet, Tor, and I2P (The Information Society Series)
by Robert W. GehlAn exploration of the Dark Web—websites accessible only with special routing software—that examines the history of three anonymizing networks, Freenet, Tor, and I2P.The term “Dark Web” conjures up drug markets, unregulated gun sales, stolen credit cards. But, as Robert Gehl points out in Weaving the Dark Web, for each of these illegitimate uses, there are other, legitimate ones: the New York Times's anonymous whistleblowing system, for example, and the use of encryption by political dissidents. Defining the Dark Web straightforwardly as websites that can be accessed only with special routing software, and noting the frequent use of “legitimate” and its variations by users, journalists, and law enforcement to describe Dark Web practices (judging them “legit” or “sh!t”), Gehl uses the concept of legitimacy as a window into the Dark Web. He does so by examining the history of three Dark Web systems: Freenet, Tor, and I2P.Gehl presents three distinct meanings of legitimate: legitimate force, or the state's claim to a monopoly on violence; organizational propriety; and authenticity. He explores how Freenet, Tor, and I2P grappled with these different meanings, and then discusses each form of legitimacy in detail by examining Dark Web markets, search engines, and social networking sites. Finally, taking a broader view of the Dark Web, Gehl argues for the value of anonymous political speech in a time of ubiquitous surveillance. If we shut down the Dark Web, he argues, we lose a valuable channel for dissent.

Web 2.0 & Semantic Web
by Dragan Gaševic Vladan DevedžicWeb 2.0 describes the trend in Web technology and design that aims to enhance creativity, information sharing, and, especially, collaboration among users. Semantic Web refers to the intelligent interaction among systems and applications on the Web by deploying ontologies, semantic annotation of Web content, and reasoning. Its ultimate goal is to make data understandable to computers, and thus open to far greater utility and manipulation. This special issue of AoIS presents cutting-edge research on both of these often opposed trends in computing and will support discussion on both the synergies and controversies inherent in the two technologies, while also considering what other technologies can contribute to both. Dramatic advances in service-oriented architectures, model-driven engineering, and Web mining technologies are but a few of the developments that might have a considerable impact on both Web 2.0 and Semantic Web, and they will all be covered in this volume.

by Irina DominteIf you are a developer who wants to learn the basic skills of web and application programming interfaces (APIs) with .NET, this book is your complete introduction. The book takes a learn-by-experience approach. You will hit the ground running with a sample project that has everything you need to be wired up.As you follow along, you will learn simple and intuitive conventions that will free you from some of the more tedious decisions and work, in order to allow you to focus on the business requirements required by your team. Certain components of the framework should always appear in certain folders in the solution to speed up development while others need a name that follows particular conventions. You will learn the building blocks of Web API and how to leverage them to have a well-rounded API. Understanding these small but important tricks will make development faster, easier, and more pleasant, and will prevent time-consuming errors.Part I introduces you to the basics of Web. Part II gets you started creating an API that you will use and build upon throughout the book until you have a complete project. All companion code is available via GitHub. Part III covers more advanced concepts, including how to override out-of-the-box conventions to customize an API to meet your specific business needs. By the end of the book you will have a fully functional API, and you will be better prepared for an interview for a .NET backend developer job.What You Will Learn Build a start-to-finish Web APIKnow the main concepts of the WebApply best practices in API development to your own projectsKnow the fundamentals of Web API developmentKnow the fundamentals of a RESTful APILeverage Web API constructs to implement a clean and extensible APIGet hands-on experience to unit test a Web APIGain the skills required to apply for a junior or entry-level .NET Web developer job Who This Book Is ForDevelopers who want to learn API development with .NET.

Web Accessibility: Web Standards and Regulatory Compliance
by Jim Thatcher Cynthia Waddell Mark Urban Andrew Kirkpatrick Richard Rutter Christian Heilmann Shawn Lawton Henry Patrick H. Lauke Bruce Lawson Bob Regan Michael R. BurksThe power of the Web lies in the fact that anyone and everyone can access it. However, this should also extend to users with disabilities--accessibility is about making websites accessible to those with aural, visual, or physical disabilities, or rather, constructing websites that don't exclude these people from accessing the content or services being provided. This isn't difficult to do, and doesn't require anything more than your normal toolset, be it HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Flash, or whatever else. All you need to do is use these tools in the right way, and bear in mind the guidelines that exist to help you keep your web sites accessible, and the laws that enforce web accessibility around the world. This book gives you all you need to know about web accessibility, whether you are a web designer or developer who wants their sites to be accessible, or a business manager who wants to learn what impact the web accessibility laws have on their businesses' web sites.
