    Role of E-government in Reducing Disasters
    (Uikten - Assoc information Communication Technology Education & Science, 2019) Ibrahim, Thaer; Mishra, Alok; Bostan, Atila
    Disasters affect three-quarters of the world, they cause huge losses of life and property every year. Information and communication technology (ICT) - as the backbone of e-government is one of the factors that reduce the damage caused by these disasters. This paper discusses the impact of demographic factors on citizens' readiness towards ICTs and disaster management, by conducting a questionnaire form that tests the readiness of the Iraqi citizen and the extent of their interest in this technology being threatened by disaster.

    Text Classification Using Word Embedding in Rule-Based Methodologies: A Systematic Mapping
    (Uikten - Assoc information Communication Technology Education & Science, 2018) Aubaid, Asmaa M.; Mishra, Alok
    With the advancing growth of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the expanding availability of electronic text documents, the automatic assignment of text classification (ATC) has become more important in sorting out information and knowledge. One of the most crucial tasks that should be carried out is document representation using word embedding and Rule-Based methodologies. As a result, this, along with their modeling methods, has become an essential step to improve neural language processing for text classification. In this paper, a systematic mapping study is a way to survey all the primary studies on word embedding to rule-based and machine learning of automatic text classification. The search procedure identifies 20 articles as relevant to answer our research questions. This study maps what is currently known about word embedding in rule-based text classification (TC). The result shows that the research is concentrated on some main areas, mainly in social sciences, shopping products classification, digital libraries, and spam filtering. The present paper contributes to the available literature by summarizing all research in the field of TC and it can be beneficial to other researchers and specialists in order to sort information.

    Group Discussion in a Blended Environment in Engineering Education
    (Uikten - Assoc information Communication Technology Education & Science, 2021) Mishra, Deepti; Dalveren, Gonca Gokce Menekse; Volden, Frode S.; Allen, Carly Grace
    Group work is a necessary element of engineering education and group members need information about one another, group process, shared attention and mutual understanding during group discussions. There are several important elements for establishing and maintaining a group discussion such as participant's role, seating arrangement, verbal and non-verbal cues, eye gaze, gestures etc. The present study investigates these elements for identifying the behavior of group members in a blend of traditional face-to-face discussion along with computer supported cooperative work (CSCW) setting. The results of this study have shown that, speaking duration is the key factor for identifying the leadership in a group and participants mostly used eye gazes for turn taking. Although this study is a mix of face-to-face and CSCW discussion setting, participants mostly behave like face-to-face group discussion. However, unlike the previous studies involving face-to-face discussion, the relation between seating arrangement and amount of attention is not apparent from the data during this study.
