CMC - mobile phones included?
by Darja Dayter 17 Jul '13

17 Jul '13

Dear all, I am wondering what exactly is included into the term 'CMC' these days. Does texting and voice communication on mobile phones count, for instance? It would be great if you could point me in the direction of sources that deal explicitly with this issue! Thanks beforehand, Darja -- Darja Dayter, M.A. Universität Bayreuth, Englische Sprachwissenschaft Tel. 0921/55-4644 daria.dayter(a)uni-bayreuth.de

Re: [Air-L] CMC - mobile phones included?

I'm just catching up on the thread, so my apologies for any redundant comments. FYI I'm primarily a historian of technology do that the frame I'm approaching this from. 1. Smart phones are CMC; "Candybar" dumb phones are not. The differing capabilities and affordances they offer their users are very different. 2. Smart phones do represent something "new", and I say that guardedly as I'm always reluctant to apply the term. Never before have people had the opportunity to own a personal technology that is as customizable and easy to use thanks to GUIs and apps. As an aside, I think smart phones afford their users the opportunity to improve their self-efficacy, especially in societies where the user is discriminated against. 3. Going forward, the quality of the interaction between users and their devices will probably be the sticking point. At some point, dumb phones may actually obsolesce. The question may be how seamless the interaction is. If there is a medium change but no one notices it, does it matter or rather, is there an effect?

hi all I'm based in the School of Computing, where many students increasingly develop mobile phone apps (among other things). Some apps do similar things to the kind of things that we would have created for the Internet, when I did my masters there, 10 years ago. And the folk before probably created similar things for cd-roms. And probably even tried to develop similar things for teletext So, from a development point of view, it doesn't make sense to seperate out mobile phones or social media. CMC research can help developers to support, rather than hinder, communication. (Plus of course a vast range of associated qualities like sociability and surveillance) -Ella Ella Taylor-Smith Institute for Informatics and Digital Innovation Edinburgh Napier University 10 Colinton Road Edinburgh, EH10 5DT Email: e.taylor-smith(a)napier.ac.uk http://www.iidi.napier.ac.uk/e.taylor-smith http://about.me/EllaTaylorSmith @EllaTasm Edinburgh Napier University offers industry informed courses which combine the optimum balance of theory and practice to equip graduates for success in today's competitive global job market. 92.3% of our graduates are in work or further study within six months of leaving.

Hello Darja and everyone else, I think there are multiple questions within the original query. Most of the replies I have seen tackle the "mediated" part of CMC. I agree that this term no longer fits because we also communicate with our machines not simply through them. The focus of my research is on this aspect of communication "with" our machines that occurs both concurrently in our communication with humans (i.e. using Facebook, sending a text, etc) and in our direct interaction with machines (i.e. Siri, AI, etc). As of now, I refer to my research area as "human-machine communication." This term is by no means elegant and, as other people have pointed out, has industrial connotations. I use the term "machine" instead of computer or technology, however, because it is more inclusive. Darja, if you are interested in communication with machines you may want to consult the cybernetics tradition within communication research. There is also the "computer" question: Does a mobile phone qualify as a computer for the purposes of CMC? To that my response is, "Which mobile phone?" Contemporary mobile phones are actually "mobile devices" with multiple technological layers and, arguably, resemble mini-computers more than they do phones. Recent literature on mobile technologies and the history of the mobile phone discusses these different aspects. Another way to approach your question is to look at the specific activities you are studying (text, phone calls) and to consider how they have been treated in the literature in the past or to look at corresponding activities on the (desktop?) computer i.e. instant messaging, etc. Good luck! -- Andrea L. Guzman, M.A. PhD Candidate Department of Communication University of Illinois at Chicago aguzma31(a)uic.edu

Canada Research Chairs in Big Data Analytics
by Catherine Middleton 15 Jul '13

15 Jul '13

Ryerson University invites applications for two Tier 2 Canada Research Chairs in Big Data Analytics: one focused on the technical aspects of Big Data, and one focused on applications and implications of Big Data in industry, government, health care, education and/or social services. Application deadline is July 31, 2013. Full advertisement is at http://www.ryerson.ca/content/dam/jobs/postings/CRCBigDataAnalytics.pdf, excerpts below. The Canada Research Chairs program was established by the Government of Canada to enable Canadian universities to achieve the highest levels of research excellence in the global, knowledge-based economy. Tier 2 Chairs have five year terms, renewable once, and are intended for exceptional emerging scholars (less than 10 years post-PhD) who have the acknowledged potential to lead their research field. Information about the CRC program can be found at www.chairs.gc.ca. Successful candidates will have original, innovative and high quality research programs that fit with an emphasis on Big Data analytics and Ryerson’s research themes and support Ryerson’s commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion in scholarship, pedagogy, and curriculum. For Ryerson University’s research strategy, please visit www.ryerson.ca/research/SRC%20Strategic%20Plan%202010-2013.pdf Areas of research for the technical aspects/challenges CRC may include distributed computing, algorithm development, integrated systems, network and database architecture, and storage. The applications CRC will research and utilize Big Data techniques to innovatively and creatively address the implications and applications of Big Data in industry, government, health care and/or social services. Both CRC holders will be well-established in terms of top tier publications and research funding, with the capacity to liaise with industry and create collaborative research programs within this highly cross-disciplinary field. Candidates will be appointed at the Assistant or Associate Professor rank and will likely be cross-appointed to various faculties on campus, including the Faculties of Science, Engineering and Architectural Science, Arts, and the Ted Rogers School of Management. The successful applicant will develop with Ryerson University the Canada Research Chair application for the October 2013 deadline, with the goal of joining the University in July 2014.
