New ubiquitous and mobile technological urban infrastructures, essentially supported by ICTs, are the key to understanding how the world has been transformed into an entire urban phenomenon. By adopting a necessary multidisciplinary approach ICTs for Mobile and Ubiquitous Urban Infrastructures: Surveillance, Locative Media and Global Networks focuses on ICTs and new urban infrastructures to discuss how the world has been revolutionized. Discussions developed here, both theoretical and analytical, are all connected with global networks of signs, values and ideologies, locative media that gives us the freedom of spatial mobility and the possibility of creating and recreating places, and the surveillance artefacts which permeate our daily life and allow a hypothetical total control of space.

Though based on an economic transition, retailer-consumer relationship is also influenced by non-economic factors and is a context of social interaction. With the emergence of modern merchandising techniques and a rise in large retail companies, consumers have become increasingly vigilant of practice within the retail industry. Handbook of Research on Retailer-Consumer Relationship Development offers a complete and updated overview of various perspectives relating to customer relationship management within the retail industry and stimulates the search for greater integration of these views in further research. Offering different angles to analyze the exchange between the retailer and the consumer, this handbook is a valuable tool for professionals and scholars seeking to upgrade their knowledge, as well as for upper-level students.

The internet of things (IoT) is quickly growing into a large industry with a huge economic impact expected in the near future. However, the users' needs go beyond the existing web-like services, which do not provide satisfactory intelligence levels. Ambient intelligence services in IoT environments is an emerging research area that can change the way that technology and services are perceived by the users. Ambient Intelligence Services in IoT Environments: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a unique source that systemizes recent trends and advances for service development with such key technological enablers of modern ICT as ambient intelligence, IoT, web of things, and cyber-physical systems. The considered concepts and models are presented using a smart spaces approach with a particular focus on the Smart-M3 platform, which is now shaping into an open source technology for creating ontology-based smart spaces and is shifting towards the development of web of things applications and socio-cyber-physical systems. Containing coverage on a broad range of topics such as fog computing, smart environments, and virtual reality, multitudes of researchers, students, academicians, and professionals will benefit from this timely reference.

El objetivo principal de la investigación es analizar los factores que influyen en la intención emprendedora de los universitarios de la Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombia con respecto a sus pares a nivel nacional. La investigación es cuantitativa con un enfoque descriptivo, donde se usa la base de datos del proyecto GUESSS 2022-2024. La población objeto de estudio fue de 304 encuestados de la UPTC en comparación con 13 041 participantes de 30 instituciones de educación superior de las principales ciudades de Colombia.Los resultados abordan el entorno, conocimiento y aprendizaje, comportamiento y actitud, emprendimiento y estudiante-empresario, mostrando que los estudiantes de la UPTC tienen una intención alta para emprender y perciben de manera positiva el esfuerzo de la universidad por motivar su espíritu empresarial. Asimismo, se evidencia que la intención de carrera para ser sucesor indica que es de mínima atracción. Finalmente, se obtiene un conjunto de índices que permiten hacer seguimiento a diferentes factores que influyen en la intención de emprender.
