Recruitment and Sector Trends in Middle East Presented by ProcorreProcorre
Procorre reviewed three major markets, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE, identifying changes and opportunities in key sectors including energy, IT and Construction
Also known as M2M (machine-to-machine) and IoE (internet of everything), IoT is essentially a network of physical electronic devices, connected over the internet, which collect, interpret and use a variety of data.
Pakistan is facing an energy crisis with a shortage of over 7,000 megawatts that is growing by 2% annually. Only 70% of homes have access to unreliable power from the national grid, especially in rural areas. The energy deficit could threaten the stability of the government. Pakistan gets 35% of its energy from oil, 29% from hydropower, 29% from gas, 6% from nuclear, and less than 1% from other sources like solar and coal. Hydropower appears to be the best short-term solution due to existing projects, but long-term energy security will require a diversified approach combining hydropower, gas, wind, solar and nuclear power.
The Growth of the Global Hydropower IndustryProcorre
Significant advances in today’s global hydropower industry means that a number of countries are set to reap the rewards of this burgeoning sector, leading to a surge in demand for specialist hydropower contractors from across the world.

The document summarizes opportunities in the oil and gas industries in several African nations. Nigeria has enormous potential as the largest oil producer in Africa. Algeria and Angola also produce over 1 million barrels per day each. Ghana is an up-and-coming destination with growing production and reserves. For natural gas, the top producers are Algeria, Egypt, Nigeria, Libya, and Equatorial Guinea. Nigeria in particular has potential to increase its significant gas output and reserves. Mozambique also has great potential for growth in natural gas production through infrastructure investment and offshore development. While political and economic challenges exist, advances can be rapid across Africa and many nations are experiencing a boom that provides opportunities for experienced oil and gas professionals.
Natural Language Processing (NLP), RAG and its applications .pptxfkyes25
1. In the realm of Natural Language Processing (NLP), knowledge-intensive tasks such as question answering, fact verification, and open-domain dialogue generation require the integration of vast and up-to-date information. Traditional neural models, though powerful, struggle with encoding all necessary knowledge within their parameters, leading to limitations in generalization and scalability. The paper "Retrieval-Augmented Generation for Knowledge-Intensive NLP Tasks" introduces RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation), a novel framework that synergizes retrieval mechanisms with generative models, enhancing performance by dynamically incorporating external knowledge during inference.
ViewShift: Hassle-free Dynamic Policy Enforcement for Every Data LakeWalaa Eldin Moustafa
Dynamic policy enforcement is becoming an increasingly important topic in today’s world where data privacy and compliance is a top priority for companies, individuals, and regulators alike. In these slides, we discuss how LinkedIn implements a powerful dynamic policy enforcement engine, called ViewShift, and integrates it within its data lake. We show the query engine architecture and how catalog implementations can automatically route table resolutions to compliance-enforcing SQL views. Such views have a set of very interesting properties: (1) They are auto-generated from declarative data annotations. (2) They respect user-level consent and preferences (3) They are context-aware, encoding a different set of transformations for different use cases (4) They are portable; while the SQL logic is only implemented in one SQL dialect, it is accessible in all engines.

State of Artificial intelligence Report 2023kuntobimo2016
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a multidisciplinary field of science and engineering whose goal is to create intelligent machines.
We believe that AI will be a force multiplier on technological progress in our increasingly digital, data-driven world. This is because everything around us today, ranging from culture to consumer products, is a product of intelligence.
The State of AI Report is now in its sixth year. Consider this report as a compilation of the most interesting things we’ve seen with a goal of triggering an informed conversation about the state of AI and its implication for the future.
We consider the following key dimensions in our report:
Research: Technology breakthroughs and their capabilities.
Industry: Areas of commercial application for AI and its business impact.
Politics: Regulation of AI, its economic implications and the evolving geopolitics of AI.
Safety: Identifying and mitigating catastrophic risks that highly-capable future AI systems could pose to us.
Predictions: What we believe will happen in the next 12 months and a 2022 performance review to keep us honest.

The Building Blocks of QuestDB, a Time Series Databasejavier ramirez
Talk Delivered at Valencia Codes Meetup 2024-06.
Traditionally, databases have treated timestamps just as another data type. However, when performing real-time analytics, timestamps should be first class citizens and we need rich time semantics to get the most out of our data. We also need to deal with ever growing datasets while keeping performant, which is as fun as it sounds.
It is no wonder time-series databases are now more popular than ever before. Join me in this session to learn about the internal architecture and building blocks of QuestDB, an open source time-series database designed for speed. We will also review a history of some of the changes we have gone over the past two years to deal with late and unordered data, non-blocking writes, read-replicas, or faster batch ingestion.
Enhanced Enterprise Intelligence with your personal AI Data Copilot.pdfGetInData
Recently we have observed the rise of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) that are community-driven or developed by the AI market leaders, such as Meta (Llama3), Databricks (DBRX) and Snowflake (Arctic). On the other hand, there is a growth in interest in specialized, carefully fine-tuned yet relatively small models that can efficiently assist programmers in day-to-day tasks. Finally, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures have gained a lot of traction as the preferred approach for LLMs context and prompt augmentation for building conversational SQL data copilots, code copilots and chatbots.
In this presentation, we will show how we built upon these three concepts a robust Data Copilot that can help to democratize access to company data assets and boost performance of everyone working with data platforms.
Why do we need yet another (open-source ) Copilot?
How can we build one?
