Cost/Benefit Analysis of LEED-NC & LEED-EB
LEED-NC and LEED-EB are standards for high-performance green buildings that provide environmental and economic benefits. LEED-NC applies to new commercial construction projects while LEED-EB addresses maintenance and operations in existing buildings. A life-cycle assessment evaluates overall environmental impacts while life-cycle costing analyzes costs and savings over the building's lifetime to determine if higher initial costs will yield lower operational costs. Case studies show that buildings can achieve a positive net present value through energy and other operational savings that offset higher initial construction costs of green building certification.
LEED
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of green buildings. It provides building owners tools to improve building performance in areas like energy savings, carbon savings, water use reduction, and cost savings. LEED aims to promote sustainability through establishing standards, recognizing environmental leadership, and stimulating green competition to raise awareness of green building benefits and transform the building market.

Leed.2018
Green buildings aim to reduce environmental impact through sustainable design and construction practices. LEED certification is a point-based rating system that evaluates buildings in several categories like energy efficiency, water conservation, materials selection, and indoor air quality. While some think green buildings are more expensive, studies show the average premium is less than 2% of costs while savings from reduced electricity and water usage offset increased costs within the first year. Various LEED certification programs exist for new and existing buildings including schools, focusing on factors like sustainable sites, water and energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
Leed
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a voluntary program that provides third-party verification of green buildings. It addresses the design, construction, operations, and maintenance of buildings with a framework to implement green building solutions. Projects earn points across several credit categories related to site design, water and energy use, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality to achieve different levels of LEED certification. LEED aims to lower operating costs, reduce waste and emissions, and create healthier spaces. The ITC Green Center in India is a LEED Platinum certified building that exemplifies water conservation, energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and other sustainable design strategies.

Phoenix Energy Performance Contracting Presentation
Energy performance contracting (EPC) allows organizations to implement energy efficiency projects through guaranteed savings contracts. An energy services company (ESCO) conducts energy assessments and implements efficiency upgrades like lighting, HVAC, and building envelope improvements. The ESCO guarantees that the energy savings will cover the costs of the project without upfront capital from the client. EPC provides clients capital improvements, utility funding opportunities, guaranteed savings, and other benefits. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development also offers incentives for public housing authorities to pursue EPC through programs like frozen utility baselines and additional operating subsidies. Case studies show EPC projects achieving substantial energy and cost savings.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
