As your business embraces user self-service, so must your IT department embrace the service catalog. Service catalogs have become the heart of IT management as IT organizations seek to reduce call volume and improve user satisfaction. When embraced by IT and the business, a service catalog provides your customers a comprehensive view of your IT and business service offerings and enables the user to more seamlessly interact with IT and other aspects of the business. BMC Software and Pink Elephant review how adopting ITIL best practices for service catalog management and request fulfillment can help your IT organization
The Best of Both Worlds: Creating a Business Service Catalog and Technical Service Catalog

This session will provide a unique perspective on IT services, as well as on creating, maintaining, and utilizing service catalogs and service portfolios. The session will focus on practical guidance, critical process relationships, real-life examples, and interactive learning.

The Service Catalog is not a Request Portal. The terms are often used interchangeably due to lack of knowledge, which can cause confusion for IT and IT's customers.
Over the past year, Evergreen conducted dozens of one-day Service Catalog workshops around the U.S. Attended by more than 500 people, a recurring theme we noted was that many attendees thought they had a Service Catalog, when in fact they actually had a Request Portal.
IT needs to increase its focus on 3 important areas:
Delivering services customers want and need

More and more companies are closely examining IT operations, and IT leaders are constantly under pressure to provide more service with less. Research shows that corporate IT spend as a percentage of revenue ranges from 3.46% to 0.89%, and industry analysts predict IT departments will face 5-10% budget reductions in the coming fiscal year. What can be done to alleviate some of these pressures?
When companies are able to align IT costs to business objectives, it significantly increases the strategic value of the company's IT investments. Learn how IT leaders are applying Lean Six Sigma to align IT costs with overall business objectives. Compare typical approaches to IT cost reduction and the advantages/disadvantages of each and hear case studies from other companies implementing Lean Six Sigma in IT.
Learn how to get started with Lean Six Sigma in IT and how to effectively assess your current IT operations.
In today's economy there is a driving need to cut costs. Yet the uncertain and changing environment makes business agility more critical than ever. To successfully address both these challenges companies must reduce maintenance costs and lead times for their existing mainframe systems and core application portfolio. They need to find ways to renovate the right pieces of their existing applications. Minimizing risk by retaining the majority of the code, yet reducing maintenance costs and improving agility by modernizing critical components. Service-Oriented Architectures deliver the framework to successfully transform core IT assets, and companies are rightfully embracing the approach. But more is needed.
This presentation covers applying Decision Management, SOA and Business Rules Management Systems to renovate your existing applications. Used together these approaches dramatically reduce maintenance costs and increasing business agility. You will see how to use the techniques and technologies to identify critical components, externalize them and make them easier and cheaper to manage and change. Illustrated with real customer stories, this webinar will show you how to increase agility and reduce costs.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
