ApproxIoT is a stream analytics system that leverages approximate computing to efficiently analyze data streams across edge and cloud resources. It employs a weighted hierarchical sampling algorithm that combines stratified and reservoir sampling to distribute work fairly across nodes. This allows ApproxIoT to achieve high accuracy within 1% on average while maintaining native throughput levels and minimizing overhead.
The existing air quality prediction systems fail to accurately predict daily levels. The proposed system develops a semantic ETL framework on a cloud platform to merge air quality data from different sources using ontologies. This unified data is then used to train models for more accurate daily air quality predictions into the future, overcoming limitations of past systems as vehicle usage patterns change dramatically.
This document discusses IP spoofing, which is a technique hackers use to gain unauthorized access to computers. It involves sending messages to a computer with a forged IP address, making it appear the message is coming from a trusted host. The document outlines how IP spoofing works, why it is easy to spoof IP addresses, and various spoofing attacks like non-blind spoofing, blind spoofing, man-in-the-middle attacks, and denial of service attacks. It also discusses how to detect and prevent IP spoofing through source address validation, ingress/egress filtering, and access control lists.
The document discusses nanorobotics, which involves building devices at the nanoscale using molecular manufacturing. Nanorobotics research involves both simulation of nanoscale dimensions and microscopic manipulation. Potential applications of nanorobots in medicine include curing diseases, replacing immune functions, and detecting pathogens. Fractal robots are also discussed as a potential intermediate technology using modular blocks that can rearrange themselves. Fractal robots may one day enable self-repair and construction of complex structures like space stations. While nanorobotics research continues, fractal robots present more feasible near-term applications.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.
PEPSICO Presentation to CAGNY Conference Feb 2024Neil Kimberley

5 Public speaking tips from TED - Visualized summarySpeakerHub
From their humble beginnings in 1984, TED has grown into the world’s most powerful amplifier for speakers and thought-leaders to share their ideas. They have over 2,400 filmed talks (not including the 30,000+ TEDx videos) freely available online, and have hosted over 17,500 events around the world.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

3. INTRODUCTION – WHAT IS IOT?
• The Internet of things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices,
mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with
unique identifiers ( UIDs ) and the ability to transfer data over a network without
requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction - IoTAgenda
• A thing in the IoT can be a person with a heart monitor implant, a farm animal
with a biochip transponder, an automobile that has built-in sensors to alert the
driver when tire pressure is low or any other natural or man-made object that can
be assigned an IP address and is able to transfer data over a network.
• IoT is a sensor network of billions of smart devices that connect people, systems
and other applications to collect and share data.

4. INTRODUCTION – CONT’D
• IoT is a concept of connecting any device with an on and off switch to the Internet
(and/or to each other). This includes everything from cellphones, coffee makers,
washing machines, headphones, lamps, wearable devices and almost anything
else you can think of. This also applies to components of machines, for example a
jet engine of an airplane or the drill of an oil rig – Forbes.
• The IoT is a giant network of connected "things" (which also includes people). The
relationship will be between people-people, people-things, and things-things.
• The dominant consumer IoT device, worldwide, is the smart TV. Between 25-35%
cent of consumers worldwide own a television that can connect to the Internet,
according to a Deloitte research. However, other areas of the IoT market are
growing rapidly.

6. IOT ECOYSTEM
• An IoT ecosystem consists of web-enabled smart devices that use embedded
processors, sensors and communication hardware to collect, send and act on data
they acquire from their environments.
• IoT devices share the sensor data they collect by connecting to an IoT gateway or
other edge device where data is either sent to the cloud to be analyzed or
analyzed locally.

18. SMART FARMING: USE OF IOT TO IMPROVE
AGRICULTURE
• In IoT-based smart farming, a system is built for monitoring the crop field with the
help of sensors (light, humidity, temperature, soil moisture, etc.) and automating
the irrigation system. The farmers can monitor the field conditions from anywhere.
This is highly efficient compared to the traditional/conventional approach.
• In terms of environmental issues, IoT-based smart farming provides great benefits
including: better and efficient water usage, and optimization of inputs and
treatments.
• Therefore, smart farming based on IoT technologies enables growers and farmers
to reduce waste and enhance productivity.

22. IOT CHALLENGES
Security, privacy and data sharing issues
• Because IoT devices are closely connected, all a hacker has to do is exploit one
vulnerability to manipulate all the data, rendering it unusable. And manufacturers
that don't update their devices regularly -- or at all -- leave them vulnerable to
cybercriminals.
• However, hackers aren't the only threat to the internet of things; privacy is another
major concern for IoT users. For instance, companies that make and distribute
consumer IoT devices could use those devices to obtain and sell users' personal
data.
• Challenges with IIoT:
i. Security of data – same as above
ii. Reliability and stability – of IIoT sensors
iii. Connectivity of all the systems in IIoT setup – no maintenance envisioned?
iv. Blending legacy systems – IIoT is new in the market

23. WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE?
1. Consumer education
2. Product reviews and comparisons
3. Vulnerability disclosure and vulnerability markets
4. Self-certification and voluntary codes of practice
5. Trust marks and labels like Internet Society’s Online Trust Alliance (OTA) IoT Trust
Framework
6. Government initiatives
7. Mandated security requirements
8. Mandated certification
9. Liability reform
10. Etc.
11. No intervention!?
