Multikeyword-Ranked Search Scheme Supporting Extreme Environments for Internet of Vehicles

In recent years, the cloud infrastructure has been developed as a promising sharing system for the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) communication. During the information exchange, search service over ciphertext called searchable encryption (SE) is an extraordinary method to prevent data breaches. However, two open problems still need to be solved for ranked search, which hinders the application practicality in IoV. First, each data owner must store the extra information to distribute weight values dynamically. Second, ranking in the cloud has not been supported by most existing schemes. In this paper, to address the above problems and fit the characteristics of real-time data exchange in IoV, we present a multi-keyword ranked search scheme supporting extreme environments for the IoV. Specifically, our system designs a unique encrypted index tree structure to realize the multi-keyword ranked retrieval, the weight value dynamic adaptive calculation, and dynamic updating in IoV. Moreover, we use a master-slave dual server model to cope with extreme environments and propose a “Greedy Breadth-First Search” algorithm to achieve an effective sub-linear search. Finally, comprehensive security analysis and experimental simulation for the proposed system prove that our system can guarantee user privacy and acceptable efficiency.

Despite thisfact, it is worth noting that this topic has been little studied in the works of domestic and foreign poor authors. The problem of determining the legal regime of orphan works of visions became relevant at the beginning of the XXI century, during the period of active development of digital technologies. The works are being transferred to the Internet environment, and consent is required to ensure this process legitimate copyright holders.

Qualitatively Examining and Analyzing Social Learning Theory in an Online Arena with a Focus on Sexting

Technology has completely revolutionized the way people live, work, study, and connect daily in the current world. The fast growth of the technological world has resulted in a greater requirement for theory and practice to successfully utilize the collaborative online arenas. However, there has been widespread sexual exploitation perpetrated by sophisticated organized criminal syndicates, a profitable sex business, and sexting due to frequent interaction with these online arenas. The word “sexting” is used to refer to the practice of receiving and transmitting sexually explicit images through various virtual communications, particularly in most internet environments. Although sexting is not limited to teenagers, their involvement and the impact on their lives have prompted significant concern among parents, schools, and the media. As a result, this article will examine the tiny but growing area of qualitative research on sexting to determine sexting’s impact on people’s well-being. Building on this, the primary goal of this report was to broaden the understanding of why a person engages in sexting by analyzing the theorized behavioral and cognitive mechanisms depicted by social learning theory and social opportunity structure devised to expand this existing, one-dimensional theoretical framework. The results of this study show that many individuals in online communities see sexting as “fun” and “amusing.” Besides, for adolescents unwilling to engage in actual sexual escapades, sexting may play an integral role in the sexual exploration period. Negative consequences for one’s well-being, such as reputational harm, are also addressed. Furthermore, according to the findings, scholars must continue to employ innovative, interactive techniques with the young generation to investigate the impacts of this sophisticated communication type.

Improving routing performance in social internet of things with FNRA: The free node-based approach

In the distributed environment of the Social Internet of Things (SIoT), where nodes rely primarily on the “store-carry-forward” mechanism for message delivery, it has been determined that forming community structures is advantageous for message propagation. Nevertheless, due to the dynamic nature of nodal social relationships and inaccurate community division, routing algorithm performance is inferior. This paper proposes a novel SIoT routing algorithm, the Free Node-based Routing Algorithm (FNRA) to resolve these issues. The FNRA algorithm presents a comprehensive framework for message forwarding, differentiating between in-community and out-of-community scenarios. The algorithm compares the forwarding capabilities of relay and source nodes within the community. A graph-theoretic approach is used to classify source, relay, and destination nodes into four distinct structures outside the community. Considering node-node, node-community, community-node, and community-community interactions, the algorithm addresses situations where the source, destination, and relay nodes do not belong to the same community. FNRA dynamically selects appropriate forwarding strategies to expedite message delivery to the destination node by leveraging the community structure and the presence of free nodes. The FNRA algorithm exhibits superior performance through detailed experimental simulations by enhancing message delivery rate, decreasing network overhead, and reducing average latency compared to existing routing algorithms. This demonstrates the algorithm's effectiveness in optimizing overall network performance.

Cross-sectional study of attitudes toward online continuing dental education in Libya during the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many educational institutions switched to e-learning educational platforms. This approach was essential but raised challenges, particularly in training practitioners for medical emergencies. This approach not only led to global challenges and a need for rapid adaptation, but also raised inequities across countries, with some facing far more technical challenges than others. In Libya, low investment in education technology and unpredictable internet connectivity limited its integration into schools and universities even before the pandemic. The current study reports feedback from an online continuing dental education (CDE) course for dental practitioners that was developed emergently during the pandemic and aimed to address the challenges posed by Libya's internet environment. Participants were recruited through social media and received an 8-hour online CDE course consisting of three modules. Participants were invited to complete a pre-course demographic/informational survey on a Google form. After passing all modules, students were prompted to complete a post-course survey consisting of 23, five-point Likert scale questions. Respondents included 43 females (74.1%) and 15 males (25.9%). For ~50% of the cohort (n = 32), this was their first online clinical course. 87.9% of post-course participants rated the course as a positive learning experience, while 90.9% agreed their learning outcomes had been achieved. Most participants (97%) agreed the course instructor explained all concepts clearly. In total, 81.8% agreed that the technology effectively supported their learning. Most agreed that a clear demarcation between each course module existed and that the language and depth of the material were adequate. Some students reported technical difficulties, and 33.3% saw repetitions in the modules. However, all post-course respondents said they would recommend the online course to colleagues. Libyan dental practitioners showed high satisfaction levels towards the e-learning process, course content, instructors' attitudes, and overall e-learning experience despite the inherent e-learning challenges posed in this country.

Protection of Well-Known Trademarks under the Internet

As the digital age advances, many trademark registrants have utilized the Internet as a medium to increase the visibility of their trademarks and brands, thereby obtaining greater benefits compared to traditional methods of trademark display, such as physical advertisements and television broadcasts. However, the Internet has also expanded the forms of trademark infringement while breaking down the territorial protection limitations of traditional trademark rights. Well-known trademarks, due to their own popularity and prominence, make them the first target of intellectual property infringement in the Internet environment. And due to the lag in legislation, the trademark infringement caused by the Internet will encounter obstacles in the process of defending rights. Therefore, this paper analyzes the protection of well-known trademarks in the context of the Internet by means of theoretical analysis and overview analysis. At the same time, it takes the problems expected in the protection of well-known trademarks in China as an example and provides corresponding measures to solve the problems. Relative protection is adopted for unregistered well-known trademarks, and with their own higher goodwill and trademark value, well-known trademarks should be given special protection. Extending the protection of well-known trademarks to the network environment is the inevitable development trend of well-known trademark protection.

Asynchronous Robust Aggregation Method with Privacy Protection for IoV Federated Learning

Due to the wide connection range and open communication environment of internet of vehicle (IoV) devices, they are susceptible to Byzantine attacks and privacy inference attacks, resulting in security and privacy issues in IoV federated learning. Therefore, there is an urgent need to study IoV federated learning methods with privacy protection. However, the heterogeneity and resource limitations of IoV devices pose significant challenges to the aggregation of federated learning model parameters. Therefore, this paper proposes an asynchronous robust aggregation method with privacy protection for federated learning in IoVs. Firstly, we design an asynchronous grouping robust aggregation algorithm based on delay perception, combines intra-group truth estimation with inter-group delay aggregation, and alleviates the impact of stragglers and Byzantine attackers. Then, we design a communication-efficient and security enhanced aggregation protocol based on homomorphic encryption, to achieve asynchronous group robust aggregation while protecting data privacy and reducing communication overhead. Finally, the simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme could achieve a maximum improvement of 41.6% in model accuracy compared to the baseline, which effectively enhances the training efficiency of the model while providing resistance to Byzantine attacks and privacy inference attacks.

КОМПЕНСАЦИЯ МОРАЛЬНОГО ВРЕДА КАК СПОСОБ ЗАЩИТЫ НАРУШЕННЫХ ЛИЧНЫХ НЕИМУЩЕСТВЕННЫХ ПРАВ И НЕМАТЕРИАЛЬНЫХ БЛАГ В ИНТЕРНЕТ-СРЕДЕ

The purpose of this article is to study the theoretical and legal aspects of compensation for moral damage as a mechanism for the prevention of offenses in the Internet environment. To achieve this goal, tasks such as the analysis of the content of the concept of «moral harm», the study of criteria for the systematization of personal non-property rights are set. The article uses modern methods of scientific cognition such as general scientific and private scientific research methods, which together made it possible to characterize compensation for moral damage as a mechanism for preventing offenses in the Internet environment.The results of the study include the formulation of scientific and practical proposals to improve the legal regulation of compensation for moral damage in the Internet environment in Russia, taking into account the established legal practice in foreign countries. The legal essence of moral damage as an evaluative concept and legal category is revealed in the fact that when determining the amount of the latter, judicial discretion is taken into account to the extent that it is allowed by Russian law, the model of civil procedure, the existing judicial system and established practice in courts. The article also touches upon the theoretical dilemma regarding the identification of a person in the digital space through the coverage of issues of the correctness of the use of personal data in the Internet environment. As a result, it is proposed to legislatively define the concept of «personal data» as «any information related to an identified individual or an individual who can be identified.» The analysis of the problem of tracking and recording the facts of offenses in the Internet environment, the problem of determining the amount and payment of compensation for moral damage caused in the Internet space is consistently given.The study is accompanied by conclusions arising from the analysis of the legislative regulation of compensation for moral damage caused on the Internet. As a result, the authors come to the conclusion that compensation for moral damage has certain features of manifestation on the Internet. Cases in this category have certain difficulties (the uncertainty of the defendant, the large volume of the information dissemination site, the defendant's ability to delete information, high costs for ensuring pre-trial fixation of evidence), which contributes to an increase in the marginal environment of the Internet environment. A proposal has been formulated on the need to catalog the amounts for causing moral suffering and provide the perpetrator with a wide margin of discretion, taking into account new approaches to determining the amount of compensation for moral harm on the Internet.

Роль соціальних мереж при формуванні моделі поведінки споживачів

The aim of the article is to develop theoretical and practical foundations for determining the role of social networks in the formation of a model of consumer behavior under modern economic conditions. According to the results of the carried out study, it is found that due to the spread of the Internet, the emphasis in communications has shifted from mass ones to personalized ones, which has led to a change in the trade infrastructure and the nature of communications, in particular, up to the emergence of a dialogue in real time. Commodity flows in distribution channels have given way to information flows, and trade in goods has turned into information support for direct deliveries. In the world of social media, things are constantly changing, and it’s hard to predict exactly what will happen next. That is why the study of the development of marketing in the Internet environment under the influence of innovations and social networks is an important stage in planning consumer behavior. The article proposes a model for the formation of consumer behavior with the help of social networks, which takes into account the nature of network information, its content and distribution channels. In the described model, the process of formation of consumer behavior with the help of social networks is reflected in the form of both non-linear and cyclical behavior. The practical significance of the obtained results lies in the development of a model, which, unlike the existing ones, reflects not only the stages of the purchase process, but also the sources of information and its nature at each stage. There is a significant amount of information about products on the Internet, and the consumer is in contact with online information at every stage of the purchase process. Moreover, this contact can influence the further sequence of consumer actions, actualizing new needs and restarting the process of finding and evaluating alternatives. Such use of the Internet possibilities of today provides enterprises with a number of advantages that will help increase their competitiveness and improve economic indicators.

Validity and reliability of the Chinese version of digital health readiness questionnaire among hypertension patients in rural areas of China.

Digital health has the potential to support health care in rural areas by overcoming the problems of distance and poor infrastructure, however, rural areas have extremely low use of digital health because of the lack of interaction with technology. There is no existing tool to measure digital health literacy in rural China. This study aims to test and validate the digital health readiness questionnaire for assessing digital readiness among patients in rural China. Due to the different Internet environments in China compared to Belgium, a cultural adaptation is needed to optimize the use of Digital Health Readiness Questionnaire in China. Then, a prospective single-center survey study was conducted in rural China among patients with hypertension. Confirmatory factor analysis was computed to test the measurement models. A total of 330 full questionnaires were selected and included in the analysis. The model-fit measures were used to assess the model's overall goodness of fit (Chi-square/degrees of freedom = 5.060, comparative fit index = 0.889, Tucker-Lewis index (TLI) = 0.869, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.111, standardized root mean square residual (SRMR) = 0.0880). TLI is a little bit lower than the borderline (more than 0.9) and RMSEA is higher than it (less than 0.08 means good model fit). We deleted two items 2 and 4 and the result shows a better goodness of fit (Chi-square/degrees of freedom = 4.897, comparative fit index = 0.914, TLI = 0.895, RMSEA = 0.109, SRMR = 0.0765). To increase applicability and generalizability in rural areas, it should be considered to use the calculation of only the parts Digital skills, Digital literacy and Digital health literacy which are equally applicable in a Belgian population as in a rural Chinese population.

ФАКТОРНАЯ МОДЕЛЬ ИННОВАЦИОННОГО РАЗВИТИЯ РЕГИОНОВ РЕСПУБЛИКИ КАЗАХСТАН

The article formulates a system of criteria for selecting factors of innovative development of regions for the Republic of Kazakhstan. Taking into account the specifics of the economy of Kazakhstan, the article highlights the factors of innovative development of its regions. It considers the indicators that improve the regional cluster in the Internet environment. These indicators are factors of innovative development of the region. Based on mathematical modeling, the research shows the relationship of these factors with the volume of production of innovative products. Due to the significant internal correlation between independent variables, the author carried out the normalization of volume and cost indicators of innovative development of regions, which makes it possible to cover a larger set of parameters under consideration, establish a causal relationship between the parameters under consideration, and based on this determine the directions of innovative development of regions. It was found that only large enterprises have sufficient funds to develop and create competitive massproduced products. In Kazakhstan, the number of large enterprises capable of producing innovative products is limited, and their funds for the development and creation of innovative products are also limited. Therefore, in order to increase the volume of innovative products, Kazakhstan's large innovative enterprises need to cooperate with similar foreign enterprises, primarily Russian and Belarusian ones.

СТРУКТУРА ПУБЛИЧНОГО ПРОСТРАНСТВА

The article examines the structure of public space. Public space is characterized from the point of view of scale and from the point of view of the spheres of communicative ties. Interactions in terms of scale take place in the public space of the world, continental, national, regional, local, in terms of the spheres of reflection of communicative relations - in the urban, extraurban, Internet environment. Public space is considered to be a vast system, not limited to the urban environment, which includes in terms of spheres of expression such segments as political, cultural, economic, ethnic space. Political space is at the top of this system. The political actors coordinate people’s interactions in the economic, cultural and ethnic space. At the same time, interactions in the economic, cultural, ethnic space can influence events and processes in the political environment. An element of cultural space is the media. Mass media improves interactive communication with the audience, but not all messages disseminated by journalists become part of the public space, unless readers, viewers, listeners participate in the discussion of topical topics. Both constructive discussions reflecting different viewpoints and simulated discussions that do not represent the plurality of opinions of free citizens are common in public spaces.

Development Countermeasures for the Integration of Local Musical Cultural Elements into Piano Performance and Education under the Perspective of the Internet

Abstract This paper summarizes the communication methods of local music culture elements in the Internet perspective, combines the feature extraction and melody recognition of local music culture elements with Internet technology, and analyzes the communication effects and WCI values of music publics in media communication. It briefly outlines integrating local music culture elements with piano performance education, models musical features and piano notes. It analyzes the development of piano performance and education from the perspectives of teachers and students using multi-dimensional evaluation rules. Taking the famous song “Two Fountains Reflecting the Moon” as the experimental material, we analyze the dissemination effect of the works of local music culture elements played by two instruments: erhu and piano. Compared with the other public numbers, the total number of likes of Folk Song China is the highest, which is 12,494 higher than that of the music research public number, and the music works containing local music culture elements are more resonant to the public. The mean value of the piano group is “2.67”, higher than that of the erhu group “2.13”, indicating that the piano version of local musical works is likelier to be liked on the Internet. This suggests that the piano version of local music works is more straightforward to spread in the Internet environment, and its influence is more significant.

Administrative liability as a means of countering the spread of illegal content on the Internet

The relevance of writing this article is justified by the growing possibilities of providing negative information and psychological effects on the individual psyche and public consciousness of Internet users. This fact has a negative impact on the state of security in various areas of public administration. The author of this article considers administrative liability as a means of countering the spread of illegal content on the Internet. The subject of the published research consists of: the norms of administrative and tort legislation establishing administrative responsibility for the dissemination of illegal content; administrative and judicial practice developing in this area of public relations; scientific literature devoted to the study of signs of administrative offenses, administrative responsibility and ensuring information and psychological safety of the population from threats arising in the Internet environment. The purpose of this work is to characterize the main signs of administrative offenses related to the dissemination of illegal content, as well as legislation on administrative offenses in terms of bringing persons distributing illegal content to administrative responsibility. The methodological basis of the research consists of general scientific methods of cognition (analysis, synthesis, etc.), as well as systemic, structural-functional and formal-legal methods. The scientific novelty of the study consists in the formation of a list of administrative offenses related to the dissemination of illegal content. Also, within the framework of this work, a characteristic of the main signs of administrative offenses is presented, on the basis of which it is possible to limit the dissemination of information in the network space. It has been established that the studied group of acts has a sign of social danger. Criteria for measuring the degree of public danger of offenses related to the distribution of illegal content are formulated. Justified and empirically confirmed (based on the results of a sociological survey of 100 employees of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation) the need to adjust the legislation on administrative responsibility, namely, the addition of Article 4.3 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation with the following sign aggravating administrative responsibility: "the commission of an administrative offense in information and telecommunications networks, including the Internet or using these technologies".

Платформна зайнятість як інструмент подолання дефіциту робочої сили та розвитку людського капіталу

The aim of the article is to comprehensively discuss platform employment, which accumulates workers of both high and low qualifications, and to study the possibilities of using this non-standard form of employment to overcome the shortage of labor force and develop human capital in conditions of permanent crises of instability. The factors of formation of the shortage of labor force in the labor market of Ukraine and the loss of human capital are analyzed. It is determined that in order to overcome the shortage of labor, the main directions of employment policy should be attracting the maximum number of people to the national labor market and developing non-standard forms of employment, in particular platform employment. The features of platform employment as a tool for overcoming the shortage of personnel in the labor market are disclosed. The presence of two poles of employment on digital platforms has been revealed. First, it is low-skilled employment, and secondly, works and services that require special knowledge and a high professional qualification level. It is determined that the quality of employment on digital platforms depends on the professional and qualification level of employees, on their skills in using interactive technologies (applications, social networks and platforms in the Internet environment) and on personal characteristics (adaptability, flexibility, ability to learn, professional development, etc.). The results of the study confirmed that one of the most important ways to improve the employment situation related to labor shortages is the integration into the national labor market of internally displaced persons, persons with disabilities, veterans, migrants and persons who were forced to leave the country. To achieve this goal, it is important to comprehensively use different types of platform employment to balance the supply and demand of labor in the face of increased economic and social insecurity due to war shocks.

Online rizikové správanie žiakov – aktuálne trendy a možnosti prevencie a riešenia v školách

On the one hand, children and youth are among the most numerous and active users of social media, on the other hand, they are also the most risky group due to the fact that they cannot always critically select the information that the media offers them. The Internet environment creates opportunities for the emergence of risky behavior such as cyberbullying, sexting, addictive behavior in relation to the Internet, compulsive playing of online games, intolerant and racist expressions in the Internet environment, cybersex and other forms of inappropriate behavior that can determine the insufficient development of a child. In Slovakia, as well as abroad, there is a trend of an increase in the risky behavior of pupils, which the authors of the study will point out in its introduction in the theoretical-empirical reflection. More and more experts point to the need to pay more attention to the prevention and solution of risky online behavior. In the article, we will present a model of prevention and solutions in the school environment with regard to cyberbullying of students.
