  Abstract: One of the biggest problems in India is the land/property disputes for the land proprietorship issues. The main reason behind it could be the number of intermediaries in the process of land registry, which creates doubtful transactions and non-clarity of title. Maintaining transparency and tamper-proof of land titles are the challenging task, while data are moving through a number of channels. By using blockchain technology, one can solve these issues during land proprietorship transfer. This paper explains complexities in the present land registration procedure and how to resolve these issues by using blockchain technology. Furthermore, the paper provides a reliable framework configuration utilizing blockchain technology for the supports of the land proprietorship transfer in the nation. The proposed framework will remove the intermediaries and minimize the cause of fraud in the process. Using the framework, the land titles are unique and give valid and decisive authority to proprietorship.

  Abstract: Design space exploration (DSE) is a key activity in any embedded system design flow. With the remarkable increasing in the connectivity to the internet, embedded systems are becoming the target of different cyber-attacks. As security emerges as a major design concern, DSE should be aware of the security aspect at a higher level of abstraction. On the other hand and to our best knowledge, there is no a comprehensive survey on this topic, hence the need to establish a comprehensive survey for existing security-aware DSE approaches for embedded systems at the system level. To meet this objective, we first selected and summarized twenty-two pertinent works. They were analyzed based on a set of criteria. The outcomes of this survey are a set of recommendations that can help embedded systems designers to better dealing with security at system-level DSE stage. The presented survey ends by proposing some potential promising future trends that can be investigated by researchers to pursue the research in related topics.

  Abstract: Companies require understanding the needs, wants, and preferences of customers and generating relevant customer insights to serve them well. Customer insights can be generated only when companies have processes in place to collect marketing information and marketing intelligence. Companies collect marketing information from many and varied sources. They handle big data and extract insights. Companies manage marketing information with the help of marketing information systems. Marketing information systems help companies in assessment of information requirements, in developing the information, and in analyzing the information to generate customer insights. Companies collect competitive marketing intelligence to have a better understanding of competitors. Companies should adhere to ethical practices while collecting and analyzing marketing intelligence. Proper coordination and utilization of marketing information, marketing information systems, and marketing intelligence will help companies generate relevant customer insights, serve customers well, and achieve business excellence.

  Abstract: In a highly dynamic environment like the Internet of Things, data is being continuously generated by IoT devices. These amounts of data make its processing and querying challenging tasks. Materialized views are ideal for query processing optimization by caching the results of queries. However, one of the main issues of the views materialization is their inconsistency with data sources. For this reason, we present a novel approach of query answering and data management in IoT systems. Our approach is based on new materialization and maintenance of views strategies. This last was carried out by factoring maintenance treatments of identical views and those sharing sources using a clustering technique. The results of experiments show that our approach is suitable for query processing under IoT environments.

  Abstract: The use of Social Networking Sites (SNS) is increasing daily. These sites provide a virtual platform for the users to disclose their personal information such as their names, pictures, status etc. a phenomenon called Self-Disclosure. However, before the user decides to put their information online, some factors come into play and affect the amount of information that will be shared by the user. Even though there is a lot of Self-Disclosure occurring on SNS, the factors behind remain little understood. This research aimed to investigate the factors that can affect a user’s Self-Disclosure in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Toward this aim, a model was built, and a questionnaire was designed through which the model was tested with 607 users. The results revealed that risks, benefits, and social influence have a significant relationship with Self-Disclosure whereas trust does not have a strong impact on Self-Disclosure. It is confirmed that risk is determined by the perception of privacy and security and that enjoyment and relationship-building opportunities determine perceived benefits.

  Abstract: With the introduction of cloud computing, many organizations have reduced the costs and burdens of maintaining an on-site data center, migrating their data and applications to the cloud. The accessibility to companies’ data and applications via the Internet raises concerns about response time, service interruptions and security. To help address these concerns, intermediate data centers, also referred to as fog computing, are developed and implemented, between the end user (EU) and the cloud data center (DC). The purpose of this fog layer is to bring the processing operation closer to the edge of the network and to reduce response time for the EU. To address the concerns of latency and response time, the current paper proposes the implementation of a multilevel layer architecture, often called cloudlets, in these intermediate data centers.
