Baran: a service-oriented cloud-based user monitoring and data analysis framework
… different organisations, under various levels of user control. A user is often unaware of how much data they create, of where the data resides, and of how their data is used. It is challenging for a user to inspect all this personal data, to control the storage and use of the data, and to exploit …

The User's Dilemma and Risky Decision-Making on Electronic Bulletin Boards
In a laboratory experiment, the User's Dilemma created by competing Effort and Prospects Reward Systems is used to explain users' decisions to disseminate or withhold information on an electronic bulletin board. Those facing the User's Dilemma were simultaneously confronted with a positive certain …
