Your company is considering, deciding or now adopting Office 365 and you like IBM. What do you do? Look for a new job? Take some Microsoft training? Challenge the IT director to a UFC match?
In reality, Microsoft has successfully convinced customers to trade in their perpetual licenses for a perpetual expense. But what does that mean for your plans for IBM moving forward?
Come and understand how to fit IBM in a Microsoft world and where the opportunities to innovate and deliver higher levels of engagement and collaboration to your organization.
Nature and purposes of of online platforms and applicationswylljie
This kind of slide will show you the nature and purposes of of online platforms and applications which will guide you to know and discover things from the said topic.
No single vendor can own the future of workLetsConnect
All evidence suggests that people crave more autonomy and a sense of purpose at work, and that more of each is good for both business performance and employee motivation. The rise of social platforms over the last decade has given us a glimpse of the possibilities: There is something unexpectedly organic about ecosystems of people and wires. They produce an unforeseen level of connectedness that is both lateral and empowering.
But in most large organisations, the lack of a coherent ‘Future Of Work’ tech strategy thwarts any real progress. You cannot decentralise accountability and expect front-line employees to make good decisions if you do not provide them with rich data insights. And you cannot support agile, intuitive ways of working if enterprise systems reinforce brittle processes and traditional, centralised planning. Practically, how do you do this? We’ll share insights from the trenches of building an new type of digital workplace hub, one fit for the future of work.
This power point presentation contains a basic definition of what web tools are. It also contains examples of web 1.0 and web 2.0. There is also a table of comparison about web 1.0 and web 2.0. and a short video.
How I use Office 365 and Cloud Technology to enable a cohesive experience - talks a bit about Enterprise Social, Office Graph, and Delve. Got my head in the Cloud, and loving it!!
This is a presentation that explains to us what is a collaboration tool and benefits of it. Characteristics of dropbox and also about how important is that every one of us have a LinkedIn account.

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.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

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.
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).

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.
