    Web Privacy: a Commercial, Social and Technological Perspective
    (2003) Mishra,A.
    People all over the world are increasingly concerned about the privacy issues surrounding the personal information collected by the private organizations, governments and employers. Privacy relates to issues surrounding collection, secure transmission, storage, authorized access, usage and disclosure of personal information. This information is used for the commercial gain by many organizations. Individual privacy concerns significantly affects consumer willingness to engage in electronic commerce over the internet. The increased use of the internet and web for everyday activities is bringing new threats to personal privacy. This paper assessed various issues related to individual privacy on the web, growing concerns among the web users, technologies employed for collecting and protecting information on the web, privacy-enhancing technologies and the legal provisions to curb the web privacy.

    Threshold Structure-Preserving Signatures With Randomizable Key
    (Science and Technology Publications, Lda, 2025) Ağırtaş, A.R.; Çelik, E.; Kocaman, S.; Sulak, F.; Yayla, Oğuz
    Digital signatures confirm message integrity and signer identity, but linking public keys to identities can cause privacy concerns in anonymized settings. Signatures with randomizable keys can break this link, preserving verifiability without revealing the signer. While effective for privacy, complex cryptographic systems need to be modular structured for efficient implementation. Threshold structure-preserving signatures enable modular, privacy-friendly protocols. This work combines randomizable keys with threshold structure-preserving signatures to create a valid, modular, and unlinkable foundation for privacy-preserving applications. © 2025 by Paper published under CC license (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0).

    The Effects of Workstation Partition Heights on Employees' Perceptions in Open-Plan Of?ces
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2019) Yildirim, Kemal; Gunes, Elif; Yilmaz, Gulcan Pervan
    Purpose The purpose of this paper is to determine the effects of environmental factors in open-plan offices with the same characteristics but with different workstation partition heights (1.10, 1.40 and 1.65 m) on perceptual evaluations of office employees. Design/methodology/approach In this research, the effects of environmental factors on employees' perceptual evaluations in open-plan offices at the Golbasi Region of Ankara were measured with a detailed questionnaire. The research data were obtained from 81 employees who agreed to fill out the questionnaire and who use open-plan offices. Findings It was found that the office environments with 1.65 m workstation partition heights were more favorably assessed for each of the items of planning and of privacy that form the dependent variables compared to the office environments with 1.10 and 1.40 m partition heights. On the other hand, the office environments with the 1.10 and 1.40 m partition heights were more favorable for lighting items than the 1.65 m partition height office environments. In addition, young employees had a more positive tendency toward the perceptions of environmental factors, including different workstation partition heights in open-plan offices, compared to older employees. Originality/value The significant contribution of this research is that it provides valid data and makes a valuable contribution to the body of knowledge in open-plan office design.
