Cloud Security, Privacy, and Trust Baselines (2016)
Book Chapter
Pitropakis, N., Katsikas, S., & Lambrinoudakis, C. (2016). Cloud Security, Privacy, and Trust Baselines. In Cloud Computing Security Foundations and Challenges. Boca Raton: CRC Press

According to ISO 27001, a threat is a potential event. When a threat turns into an actual event, it may cause an undesirable incident. It is undesirable because the incident may harm an organization or a system, causing a security incident and/or t... Read More about Cloud Security, Privacy, and Trust Baselines.

Combinatorial Dialogue Games in Strategic Argumentation (2016)
Book Chapter
Wells, S. (2016). Combinatorial Dialogue Games in Strategic Argumentation. In Argumentation and Reasoned Action Volume 2 (1045-1063). College Publications

We introduce combinatorial dialogue games, an approach to strategizing within argumentative dialogue games where the moves played are interpreted as moves within an edge addition and/or edge-removal combinatorial game. This enables an agent to reason... Read More about Combinatorial Dialogue Games in Strategic Argumentation.

Using argumentation within sustainable transport communication (2016)
Book Chapter
Wells, S., & Pangbourne, K. (2016). Using argumentation within sustainable transport communication. In Argumentation and Reasoned Action Volume 1 (781-801). College Publications

In this paper we present the preliminary results of a survey of persuasive communication within the sustainable transport domain. This survey is underpinned by a reconstruction of the arguments used, a scheme oriented analysis of the corpus of recon...

Fiction for design: appropriating Hollywood techniques for design fictions (2016)
Book Chapter
Flint, T. (2016). Fiction for design: appropriating Hollywood techniques for design fictions. In P. Turner, & T. Harviainen (Eds.), Digital Make-Believe (49-66). Cham, Switzerland: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-29553-4_4

There is evidence that narratives told in a structured manner are more likely to be convincing to an audience. Design Fictions are an increasingly popular medium in HCI. It is important that we make our stories believable so that they can be more rea... Read More about Fiction for design: appropriating Hollywood techniques for design fictions.
