Internet of Things (IoT) - We Are at the Tip of An IcebergDr. Mazlan Abbas
You are likely benefitting from The Internet of Things (IoT) today, whether or not you’re familiar with the term. If your phone automatically connects to your car radio, or if you have a smartwatch counting your steps, congratulations! You have adopted one small piece of a very large IoT pie, even if you haven't adopted the name yet.
IoT may sound like a business buzzword, but in reality, it’s a real technological revolution that will impact everything we do. It's the next IT Tsunami of new possibility that is destined to change the face of technology, as we know it. IoT is the interconnectivity between things using wireless communication technology (each with their own unique identifiers) to connect objects, locations, animals, or people to the Internet, thus allowing for the direct transmission of and seamless sharing of data.
IoT represents a massive wave of technical innovation. Highly valuable companies will be built and new ecosystems will emerge from bridging the offline world with the online into one gigantic new network. Our limited understanding of the possibilities hinders our ability to see future applications for any new technology. Mainstream adoption of desktop computers and the Internet didn’t take hold until they became affordable and usable. When that occurred, fantastic and creative new innovation ensued. We are on the cusp of that tipping point with the Internet of Things.
IoT matters because it will create new industries, new companies, new jobs, and new economic growth. It will transform existing segments of our economy: retail, farming, industrial, logistics, cities, and the environment. It will turn your smartphone into the command center for the both digital and physical objects in your life. You will live and work smarter, not harder – and what we are seeing now is only the tip of the iceberg.
Internet of things - Business Opportunities in the Connected WorldJag Randhawa
Internet of Things (IoT) is next biggest thing since the birth of the Internet. It is going to impact our lives and businesses beyond anyone’s imaginations.
Generative AI models, such as ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion, can create new and original content like text, images, video, audio, or other data from simple prompts, as well as handle complex dialogs and reason about problems with or without images. These models are disrupting traditional technologies, from search and content creation to automation and problem solving, and are fundamentally shaping the future user interface to computing devices. Generative AI can apply broadly across industries, providing significant enhancements for utility, productivity, and entertainment. As generative AI adoption grows at record-setting speeds and computing demands increase, on-device and hybrid processing are more important than ever. Just like traditional computing evolved from mainframes to today’s mix of cloud and edge devices, AI processing will be distributed between them for AI to scale and reach its full potential.
In this presentation you’ll learn about:
- Why on-device AI is key
- Full-stack AI optimizations to make on-device AI possible and efficient
- Advanced techniques like quantization, distillation, and speculative decoding
- How generative AI models can be run on device and examples of some running now
- Qualcomm Technologies’ role in scaling on-device generative AI
160+ Companies, 7 layers, 9 megatrends, 1 creator-led future. The metaverse is not “a” metaverse. It is the next generation of the Internet: a decentralized multiverse, led by a new and abundant generation of creators.

Conducting Experiments on the Software Architecture of Robotic Systems (QRARS...Ivano Malavolta
Slides of my invited talk at the 2nd workshop on Quality and Reliability Assessment of Robotic Software Architectures and Components (QRARSAC), co-located with the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA 2023).
Abstract of the talk. Today robotic systems are central to many industrial sectors, such as logistics, autonomous warehousing, and healthcare. If on one side ROS is helping roboticists by providing a standardized communication platform for robotic systems, on the other side ROSsystems are getting more and more large and complex, thus making it extremely difficult to ensure their level of quality, e.g., in terms of performance, security, energy efficiency, testability, maintainability. Improving the quality of robotic systems is not a new activity, but in this talk, we tackle it from a different perspective: we look at them from a software architecture perspective. In this talk, I will walk you through a series of experiments we conducted at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam targeting the architecture of ROS systems, we will discuss some architectural tactics for ROS systems, and will close with an overview of our open-source tool for automatically executing experiments on robotics software.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Tips for the project
24. Mobile is the 7th mass media
1. Printing press
2. Recordings
3. Cinema
4. Radio
5. Television
6. Internet
25. Mobile is the 7th mass media
Mobile is the LARGEST
,
most available
mass medium
TO MANKIND
26. Mobile is the 7th mass media
it started at the
same time as the
Web
7. Mobile
UNIQUE TRAIT
it can do EVERYTHING all the
other media can do
• Reading (and publishing)
• Play recordings
• Watch movies
• Listen to radio
• Watch TV (and
streaming)
• Surf the Internet
27. Unique benefits of Mobile
Apart from covering all the other media, mobile has five
unique benefits
First truly personal mass media
We don’t share our phones with our
friends
First always-on mass media
Information is always available 24/7,
even when idle
First always-carried mass media
7 out of 10 people sleep with their
phones within reach
Built-in payment channel
Universal click-to-buy + credit cards
At the point of creative impulse
Ability to create or consume content
whenever the mood strikes
28. Context

29. Two kinds of context
Context
with a big “C”
VS
context
with a little “c”
30. Context VS context by example
The app works in a specific context depending on the
current location of the user
The app gives Context by providing additional info
http://bit.ly/wXGpNA
31. Context VS context by example
Context
who is here?
VS
context
where I am
Context answers users’
questions
VS
context is a fact
https://foursquare.com
32. Context with a big “C”
How users will derive value from something they are
currently doing
For example:
• info on restaurants
• rate places
• GPS navigator
http://www.oink.com
33. Context with a big “C”
The information provided by the app gives Context
A better understanding of what this moment in time
means to the user
Recurrent targets:
people, places, things, situations, ideas
34. context with a little “c”
The mode, medium and environment in which we
perform our tasks
There are 3 different types of context:
1. Physical context
2. Media context
3. Modal context
35. context with a little “c”
Physical context
where I am

36. context with a little “c”
Physical context
in which environment I am
• at home
• on a bus
• in the streets
• in my office
• in a shop

40. The Mobile golden rule
If you can unlock the state of mind of
your users and start thinking in their
context, understanding how a mobile
experience will add value to their lives,
you will have the ever-elusive…
KILLER
APP
41. How can you apply the golden rule?
Think of your app in its context
• Who is your user? Business man, teenager, mum…
• What is happening? Are they hanging out with
friends?
• When will he interact? @home? @work? waiting for
the bus?
• Where is he? Public/private space, inside/outside, day/
night
• Why will he use your app? How do you give Context?
• How is he using his mobile device? Is the device held in
the hand? Portrait or landscape?

Mobile strategy =
How much it will cost you to
develop your app?
How much time?
How much
effort?
How much
money?

50. The new rules for a mobile strategy
Remember, mobile is a new medium
à
DIFFERENT RULES
Don’t try to follow “traditional rules” since mobile has its own
peculiarities:
• context
• location, user mood
• device fragmentation
• unique UI patterns
51. Rule #1
Forget what you think you know
Mobile is an ever-evolving area
à today you are already outdated
• Forget what you think you know about mobile
- It is most likely incorrect
• Don’t try to emulate other projects
- Focus on what is right for your user, not what is right for someone
else’s user
52. Rule #2
Believe what you see, not what you read
• Don’t trust any report, fact, or figure that 1-2 years old
- It is most likely wrong
• Go to your users and ask them questions in person
- Don’t try to simply validate your ideas
• Record everything
- Your own users’ worlds will help you in focussing on their need
• Don’t forget to innovate
- Try new things, be bold, and don’t be afraid to fail
53. Rule #3
Constraints never come first
• Avoid talking about constraints at an early-stage brainstorming
session
- Refer back to Rule #1 and forget what you think you know
• There will always be constraints in mobile, accept it!
• Focus on strategy first, what the user needs, and lay down the
features
- Then, if the constraints become an issue, fall back to the user goals
• There is always an alternative
54. Rule #4
Focus on context, goals and needs
• Defining the users’ context is the first thing to do
- without it, you don’t have a mobile strategy, you have only a plan of action
• Uncover the users’ goals
- and then try and understand how the users’ context alters their goals
• With goals understood, figure out the tasks the users want to perform
• Look for ways to filter content by context
- for example: location, media, and model
55. Rule #5
You can’t support everything
• Don’t try to support everything
- Start with the devices that best represent your core customer
• The most popular might not always be the best device for your
project
• Check your server logs for the devices accessing your site
- These are the first devices to target
56. Rule #6
Don’t convert, create
Great mobile products are created, never ported
• Understand your user and his context
- Having an idea of how and when users will access your content
will aid in understanding how to best
create a tailored mobile
experience
• Mobile is a unique medium
57. Rule #7
Keep it simple
People want to use mobile devices in a simple way
• Simplicity à fewer technical problems
• Easier to iterate and evolve your app
• Don’t try to create a desktop software on a mobile
- Adding feature after feature is an easy trap to fall in
• Build the experience around your users’ main need and nothing else

Tips for the project
59. Types of mobile apps
Applications can be presented in different ways
es. taks-based utility, immersive experience, etc…
• Typically, it is best to choose one app context and present it
to the user
à don’t mix app contexts!
TIP: if you really need to switch context within your app, let
the user choose when to switch
60. Types of mobile apps
Mobile apps can provide different experiences to the user
Utility
Locale
Informative
Productivity
Immersive
61. Utility
• short, task-based scenarios
• minimal information from the user
• minimal design
ex.
calculator
alarm clock
weather forecast
62. Locale
• it provides info about “what’s around”
• recurrent feature: a map on which data is displayed
• goal of the user: to find additional
info about his present location
ex.
find friends around
find pubs around
get route directions
https://foursquare.com
63. Informative
• Goal: to provide information to the user
• Task of the user: to read and understand
• not necessarily to interact
• remember that user tasks are
short and can be interrupted
ex.
news
online directory
mobile commerce
https://www.pinterest.com
64. Productivity
• Meant to increase user’s sense of efficiency
• Users have a clear goal in mind
• Very structured (with folders)
– it gives a sense of order
• Clear workflow
ex. mail, scanning, todo lists…
TIP: focus on the main task only, and
only after start adding other features
http://www.thegrizzlylabs.com/genius-scan
65. Immersive
• immersive, full-screen app
• meant to consume the user’s focus
ex.
games
media players
entertainment
TIP: you can use it as alternative to other app contexts

69. Tips for the project
1.
Find a REAL NEED first
2.
Find your GOAL to fill the need
3.
Reverse Engineer the goal into a potential app
4. Remember the unique benefits of Mobile
5.
CONTEXT CONTEXT CONTEXT
• Location, camera, always-carried, accelerometer
• WHO is your typical user???? Define usage scenarios
70. Tips for the project
This is my checkbox when I review an app:
ü Does it have a clear goal?
ü Is it filling a real need?
ü Does it consider the context in which I’m using it?
ü Is it integrated with other services?
Look at http://www.programmableweb.com
and discover a new world out there!! J
ü Is it a pleasure to use it?
I look at UI design, interface slickness, ecc.
