They reported that over half of non-IT colleagues also regularly use mobile devices for work, with two-thirds of users doing so daily. The most popular mobile applications were email, project management, and social media, especially Facebook. The document predicts that mobile devices will become essential for government agencies in 2012 and that agencies and contractors will need to adapt to the trend through security and optimized mobile experiences.
Social Media Attribution - Havas Digital InsightsHavas Media
This document discusses quantifying the contribution of social media in marketing campaigns. It outlines challenges with social media attribution, such as much social media activity escaping traditional tracking. The document proposes addressing this by building on an existing attribution methodology to encompass social media through techniques like agent-based modeling. This would create unified datasets and simulated user journeys to uncover attribution and interaction effects between paid digital campaigns and earned social media. The benefits would include optimizing campaign architecture and maximizing returns across channels.

The document summarizes key findings from recent Pew Research Center reports on digital technology and social media usage:
1) A majority of Facebook users do not actually derive enjoyment from using the social media site, with only 4% reporting pleasure from it.
2) Mobile internet access has grown significantly, with 89% of adults now owning smartphones or tablets on which they access apps and location-based services.
3) Social media engagement continues rising, with 59% of all U.S. adults now using social networking sites like Facebook.
- A 2008 survey of 152 microfinance institutions found that while use of technology is increasing, many still rely on manual processes or basic spreadsheets.
- Around half used custom-built software for loan portfolio management while 18% still used only manuals or spreadsheets.
- Smaller MFIs serving under 50,000 clients were more likely to use less advanced systems due to lack of funding.
- Respondents reported needs for improved reporting, customization, accuracy and transaction speed while challenges included unreliable internet access and IT support.
The document discusses a USAID-funded project assessing the requirements for electronically linking farmers with markets in Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Bangladesh. The project aims to determine what marketing and distribution issues could be addressed by developing an SMS mobile platform.

5th LF Energy Power Grid Model Meet-up SlidesDanBrown980551
5th Power Grid Model Meet-up
It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
TrustArc Webinar - 2024 Global Privacy SurveyTrustArc
How does your privacy program stack up against your peers? What challenges are privacy teams tackling and prioritizing in 2024?
In the fifth annual Global Privacy Benchmarks Survey, we asked over 1,800 global privacy professionals and business executives to share their perspectives on the current state of privacy inside and outside of their organizations. This year’s report focused on emerging areas of importance for privacy and compliance professionals, including considerations and implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, building brand trust, and different approaches for achieving higher privacy competence scores.
See how organizational priorities and strategic approaches to data security and privacy are evolving around the globe.
This webinar will review:
- The top 10 privacy insights from the fifth annual Global Privacy Benchmarks Survey
- The top challenges for privacy leaders, practitioners, and organizations in 2024
- Key themes to consider in developing and maintaining your privacy program
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
