Based on global research from leading IT research firm EMA, these slides—based on the webinar—provide a uniquely comprehensive look at IT automation technologies in terms of what is deployed, what is most valuable, and what is lacking in today’s solutions.
Your Challenge
Infrastructure, by focusing on the reliability, availability, and serviceability of existing platforms, is perceived as a cost center rather than a business enabler.
Business stakeholders look to external vendors, rather than Infrastructure, to exploit emerging technologies. This leads to duplication of effort, inconsistent standards, and ineffective IT governance.
Infrastructure directors are unable to draw a line showing how their activities directly support the overall business goals.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
Think of the roadmap as a service, not a product. Its value is inversely proportional to the time since its last update.
Alignment perception issues can be addressed by having the infrastructure practice formally engage and communicate with business stakeholders.
Shadow IT can provide business-ready initiatives that need only to be tweaked to align with Infrastructure’s internal goals.
Impact and Result
This blueprint will help you build:
A formal channel and way of communicating value bottom-up and top-down between IT and the executive team.
A methodology to prioritize and create projects that generate business value.
A tool that can produce multiple outputs of value for different audiences using the same data.
An ongoing roadmap process, rather than a static document, that is able to adjust and react to evolving business circumstances.

EMA/Apica October 2016 Event: User Environment Management For Digital Transfo...Apica
Both User Environment Management (UEM) and Digital Transformation (DT) are current industry buzzwords. However, the two are more interrelated than most recognize. During an October 2016 event Julie Craig, research director from analyst firm Enterprise Management Associates, addressed these two trends and discussed ways in which UEM– and specifically synthetics solutions such as Apica– supports and facilitates DT initiatives.
For most organizations, new technologies are coming to market faster than we can keep up with. This wave of innovation brings with it new opportunities for cutting-edge applications and services that create industry differentiation. At the same time, the complexity of melding new technologies into existing production systems makes it difficult to chart a course through the flood of possibilities these technologies have to offer. As a result, many companies deploy new applications first, then figure out how to manage performance and availability.
In other words, performance optimization is too often an afterthought.
In a recent global study conducted by leading IT research firm EMA, 38% of IT leaders rated the impact of enterprise service management on the relationship of IT and the business as “transformational.”

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.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
