It builds on Thomas Kuhn's notion of paradigms and previous works on regulatory theory, defining regulatory paradigms as a "shared understanding of the purpose of regulation, of the way of thinking about how regulation works, and of the set of institutional arrangements and instruments through which regulation is conducted." Building on this definition, the prevalent concepts of the paradigms of intemet regulation refer to the intention, mechanisms, and the intensity of regulation. The article discusses these concepts with regard to the regulation of interact content control in Europe and analyzes three paradigm shifts that have taken place since the early days of the intemet. These paradigm shifts concern the responsiveness, differentiation, and intensity of regulation.展开更多

Further, RFID technology enables tracking of an object and assigning it a unique ID. IoT has the potential for a wide range of applications relating to healthcare, environment, transportation, cities… Moreover, the middleware is a basic component in the IoT architecture. It handles heterogeneity issues among IoT devices and provides a common framework for communication. More recently, the interest has focusing on developing publish/subscribe middleware systems for the IoT to allow asynchronous communication between the IoT devices. The scope of our paper is to study routing protocols for publish/subscribe schemes that include content and context-based routing. We propose an Energy-Efficient Content-Based Routing (EECBR) protocol for the IoT that minimizes the energy consumption. The proposed algorithm makes use of a virtual topology that is constructed in a centralized manner and then routes the events from the publishers to the intended interested subscribers in a distributed manner. EECBR has been simulated using Omnet++. The simulation results show that EECBR has a significant performance in term of the energy variance compared to the other schemes.展开更多

This paper is to comb the developmental history of internet emoticon and endeavor to give some hints on its future research. In this review, 88 papers are collected from the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI). A visualization analysis is made to quantify the research hot topics and frontier, key words, author and institution with the aid of CiteSpace III. In terms of cited literature and co-cited literature, CNKI metrological visualization analysis is employed to delve into the overall trends. The results reveal that internet emoticon research has been closely related to various domains and its interdisciplinary characteristics is not in full swing.展开更多
