Research and Innovation Forum 2023
This book features research presented and discussed during the Research & Innovation Forum (Rii Forum) 2023. As such, this book offers a unique insight into emerging topics, issues and developments pertinent to the fields of technology, innovation and education and their social impact. Papers included in this book apply inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches to query such issues as technology-enhanced teaching and learning, smart cities, information systems, cognitive computing and social networking. What brings these threads of the discussion together is the question of how advances in computer science—which are otherwise largely incomprehensible to researchers from other fields—can be effectively translated and capitalized on so as to make them beneficial for society as a whole. In this context, Rii Forum and Rii Forum proceedings offer an essential venue where diverse stakeholders, including academics, the think tank sector and decision-makers, can engage in a meaningful dialogue with a view to improving the applicability of advances in computer science.
Research and Innovation Forum 2021
This book features research presented and discussed during the Research and Innovation Forum (Rii Forum) 2021. The Covid-19 pandemic and its social, political, and economic implications had confirmed that a more thorough debate on these issues and topics was needed. For this reason, the Rii Forum 2021 was devoted to the broadly defined question of the short- and long-term impact of the pandemic on our societies. This volume serves as an essential resource to understand the diverse ways in which Covid-19 impacted our societies, including the capacity to innovate, advances in technology, the evolution of the healthcare systems, business model innovation, the prospects of growth, the stability of political systems, and the future of education.

Higher Education Institutions and Covid-19
Offering insights into the adaptational strategies that were employed by higher education institutions worldwide during the Covid-19 pandemic, this volume considers the lasting effects of adaptation and change, as well as the perception of universities’ role in society and desired ways of operating. Nearly overnight, the pandemic forced university leaders and faculty across the world to switch to remote models, not only of teaching and learning but also of managing an entire institution. This book recognizes how the scale of challenges as well as the range of measures specific universities had to undertake was uneven, with some being better equipped than the others. Using a selection of in...
Sociedad y tiempo
Las diferentes formas de organización de las sociedades marcan un ritmo acorde a sus mar-cos éticos, sus estructuras y dinámicas societales. Los procesos de constitución, mantenimiento y transformación de las estructuras de cada época dan cuenta de cómo las sociedades evolucio-nan con el paso del tiempo y del ritmo en que lo hacen. La mayoría de autores que estudian la modernidad desde la mirada sociológica del tiempo, coinciden en que los desarrollos y las in-novaciones tecnológicas han supuesto el origen de una determinada transformación de la vida humana (Kern, 1983; Adam, 1990; Harvey, 1994; Ramos Torre, 1995; Levine, 1997; Wagner, 1997; Beriain, 2008; Rosa, 2013; Wajcman, 201...

Turismo residencial
En el libro se recogen los resultados de un amplio abanico de estudios que sobre el turismo residencial y sus repercusiones sociales, culturales, territoriales y demográficas han realizado acreditados investigadores de Italia, Noruega, Portugal, España, México, Brasil y Ecuador. El objetivo es el de ofrecer una amplia visión de lo que esta actividad, generalmente conocida como turismo residencial o de segundas residencias turísticas, afecta de forma directa, indirecta e inducida tanto a las zonas y sociedades receptoras como a las emisoras. Para ello se han recogido los estudios y ponencias que se presentaron en el IV Congreso Internacional de Turismo Residencial, celebrado entre los días 13 y 15 de septiembre de 2018 en la Universidad de Alicante.
Trabajo y digitalización: avances y retos para el diálogo social y la negociación colectiva
Tras una primera parte en la que se efectúan una serie de reflexiones interdisciplinares sobre lo que supone la transformación digital en el empleo, el trabajo ahonda, en el rastreo del texto de los convenios en busca de las cláusulas que hubiesen podido pactarse que estén relacionadas con la digitalización y las tecnologías en el entorno de trabajo. Ahora bien, el objetivo de esta obra va más allá, es más ambicioso. Porque, además de ofrecerse una radiografía de la negociación colectiva estatal desde el punto de vista de la digitalización, se incorpora un catálogo de cláusulas tipo que abordan la regulación de la materia laboral desde la perspectiva digital, que bien pueden ...

Investigando en contenidos de vanguardia
La Universidad se encuentra en pleno progreso desde su tiempo cero; de hecho, halla su carta de naturaleza en la necesidad de mejorar el medio que la nutre y por y para el que existe: la sociedad. Rompiendo las viejas membranas de la enseñanza imperante hasta el siglo XX, las nuevas (r)evoluciones de contenidos y fórmulas, como lo fuera el EEES (o Plan Bolonia) o las TIC, suponen la respuesta a esas actualizadas necesidades docentes y curriculares. Las Humanidades, las Artes, las Ciencias sociales y la Docencia se reescriben, hibridando, gracias a los nuevos lenguajes y herramientas, contenidos otrora lejanos. La nueva Academia es poliédrica, ínter y multi disciplinar, dialógica y colab...
