    Master-uppsats, Institutionen för tillämpad informationsteknologi

    Författare :Afrah Nasser; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Media; Critical Discourse Analysis; Hegemony; Framing; Yemen’s 2011 Uprising; BBC World; Al Jazeera English;

    Sammanfattning : The way in which different media portrayed and constructed the notion of the Arab Spring has received a great deal of scholarly attention since the start of these revolutions in late 2010. However, the role of media in the news construction and framing of the Yemeni Uprising in particular has been less well­examined; that is perhaps attributed to the fact that Yemen’s socio­political features are complex, and it is often an intimidating task to analyse the media’s interrelation with the country’s political developments.

    Sammanfattning : Ambient Intelligence (AmI) refers to a vision of the information society where everyday human environments will be permeated by intelligent technology: people will be surrounded and accompanied by intelligent interfaces supported by computing and wireless networking technology that is ubiquitous, embedded in virtually all kinds of everyday objects. These computationally augmented, smart environments - composed of a myriad of invisible, distributed, networked, connected, interactive, and always-on computing devices - are aware of human context; sensitive to people's needs; adaptive to, and anticipatory of, their behavior; personalized to their requirements; and responsive to their emotion and presence, thereby intelligently supporting their daily and social lives by providing limitless services in a seamless and unobtrusive way.
