This volume showcases innovative research on dialectal, vernacular, and other forms of “oral,” speech-like writing in digital spaces. The shift from a predominantly print culture to a digital culture is shaping people's identities and relationships to one another in important ways. Using examples from distinct international contexts and language varieties (kiAmu, Lebanese, Ettounsi, Shanghai Wu, Welsh English, and varieties of American English) the authors examine how people use unexpected codes, scripts, and spellings to say something about who they are or aspire to be. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars interested in the impact of social media on language use, style, and orthography, as well as those with a broader interest in literacy, communication, language contact, and language change.
These two volumes constitute the proceedings of the 21st International Conference, ICSOC 2023, held Rome, Italy, during November 28–December 1, 2023. The 35 full papers and the 10 short papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 208 submissions. The volumes focus on cutting-edge topics like artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data analytics, the Internet of Things (IoT), and emerging technologies such as quantum computing, blockchain, chatbots, and sustainable green IT solutions.
Skin is our primary interface with the environment, and T cells are crucial for orchestrating host immune responses against pathogenic microorganisms. Dysregulated immune responses, on the other hand, can result in chronic inflammatory skin diseases. The complex regulatory networks include effector T cells, memory T cells, regulatory T cells, immunoregulatory co-signaling molecules and cytokines that control skin immunity, and the mechanisms that regulate skin immune responses in host defense and in immune-mediated cutaneous diseases. The immune-regulatory networks are involved in the common inflammatory skin diseases, including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata, vitiligo, bullous diseases, and cutaneous adverse drug reaction. The goal of this Research Topic is to provide a forum to advance research on the contribution of skin inflammation to the genesis and development of the skin diseases as well as to explore innovative skin-oriented pharmacological interventions, mainly on the immune regulatory networks, in the attempt to achieve a beneficial impact on the skin disease course.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the ACM/IFIP/USENIX 14th International Middleware Conference, held in Beijing, China, in December 2013. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 189 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics including design, implementation, deployment and evaluation of middleware for next-generation platforms such as cloud computing, social networks and large-scale storage and distributed systems. The middleware solutions introduced provide features such as availability, efficiency, scalability, fault-tolerance, trustworthy operation and support security and privacy needs.
This book explores how modern Nigerian fiction is rooted in writers’ understanding of their identity and perception of Nigeria as a country and home. Surveying a broad range of authors and texts, the book shows how these fictionalized representations of Nigeria reveal authentic perceptions of Nigeria’s history and culture today. Many of the lessons in these works of literature provide cautionary tales and critiques of Nigeria, as well as an examination of the lasting impact of colonialism. Furthermore, the book presents the nation as both the framework and subject of its narrative. By conducting literary analyses of Nigerian fiction with historical reference points, this work demonstrates how Nigerian literature can convey profound themes and knowledge that resonates with audiences, teaching Nigerians and non-Nigerians about the colonial and postcolonial experience. The chapters cover topics on nationhood, women’s writing, postcolonial modernity, and Nigerian literature in the digital age.
