People powered public services - a talk from LGA 2013
A presentation from LGA conference 2013 looking at the role of design in increasing public participation in public services.
Module6 project jenna brown
Jenna Brown proposes educating communities and using indigenous plant barriers as beneficial solutions to noise pollution. Noise pollution is unwanted environmental noise from people and machines that disrupts human and animal life. It mainly occurs in urban industrial areas from construction, transportation, and audio systems. Plant barriers could suppress up to 80% of sound and provide benefits like absorbing impacts, improving air quality through photosynthesis, increasing property values, and creating jobs in tree planting and maintenance. The proposal argues these approaches are inexpensive and effective long term ways to reduce noise pollution's harms.
Improving Collaboration in the Dispersed Enterprise
This document discusses improving collaboration in dispersed workplaces. It notes that employees are busy, blocking noise, and dispersed globally. The "50 foot rule" finds people more than 50 feet apart don't collaborate as easily. It suggests connecting through a shared culture, making it easy to find people, and using effective communication tools. A quote from Intel finds employees waste a day a week finding expertise. The document advocates building a strong culture as the foundation for collaboration and proposes using employee-generated video on an internal social platform to create engagement and knowledge sharing. It provides examples of how employee-generated video works and concludes with next steps information.

The capacity of digital technology to change lives, economies, cultures and societies is universally accepted.Nature conservation is an umbrella term that refers to a plethora of ideas, practices and values, differing for individuals and organizations.
The technologies of the Information Age are often greeted with optimism by conservationists because they promise more data, faster processing, better information access and connectivity, new communication routes, exciting visual representations and empowering decision-making support systems.
Enterprise social networks
The document discusses how enterprise social networks like Yammer can facilitate workplace connectivity and learning. It argues that providing a platform for workers to connect across space and time will increase social capital and dialogue, giving workers a voice to contribute and receive recognition. However, a platform alone is not enough - workers must adopt behaviors like discussing work in progress, sharing finished work, commenting on others' work, and reading about colleagues' work to fully leverage the network. By transitioning from hierarchical document storage to real-time searchable digital tools, organizations can stay current and adaptable to customer needs.

Introduction to Innovation Philosophy - Day1a-intro1
This document provides an overview of innovation management and open innovation. It discusses:
1) The agenda includes topics on innovation and creativity, philosophy and techniques, the innovation process, and open innovation.
2) Innovation is defined as the implementation, development, and commercialization of ideas to create business value. It can be achieved through new products/services or improved processes.
3) Types of innovation include incremental, radical/disruptive, closed, and open innovation models. Radical innovations involve major changes while incremental improvements build on existing solutions. Closed innovation follows a linear process while open innovation is more collaborative.
Social computing intro
This document provides an agenda and objectives for a discussion on planning for Enterprise 2.0. The discussion will cover cultural and behavioral transformation, use cases, technology trends, and execution mechanics. The key theme is enabling knowledge workers with social computing and collaboration tools to drive growth, improve efficiency, and gain governance over organizational information. The primary objective is to provide best practices for using collaboration technologies strategically while addressing impacts, risks, and deployment. The session will argue that consumer behaviors will influence the workplace and companies that create collaborative environments will benefit from their people, but governance principles will need to apply to open communication.
Case Konecranes
Konecranes, a lifting equipment company, wanted to use social media internally but had concerns about using public platforms. It worked with Descom to launch an internal social networking platform called MyCommunity using Lotus Connections. The new platform allows Konecranes' global employees to easily interact and share knowledge. It was implemented quickly in just a few weeks. The IT manager says feedback has been positive and it has improved collaboration on large projects.
Business Intelligence for normal people
1. Web 2.0 applications allow for open access and open data, which encourages individual contribution and collective value through passive collaboration without central planning.
2. The web functions as a database that can be used flexibly to create mashups by combining different types of data and applications.
3. Mashups are easy to create situational applications that can address the "long tail of IT applications" and be made by domain experts without extensive developer help.
The Promise of Networks: How Social Connections = Social Impact
This document discusses social networks and how to harness their power for social impact. It defines a social network as a group of people connected by relationships. While networks have long existed, connectivity is growing dramatically with new technologies like cell phones and online spaces. This represents a newly dominant form of organizing. The key is to help "Reed's Law" win out over "Brooks's Law" - meaning networks should scale exponentially with more participants rather than projects taking longer. To do so requires a "network mindset" of loosely controlled emergence, strengthening connections across the network, and decentralized decision-making rather than traditional top-down control.

Social interaction will continue to change significantly over the next 10 years due to advancing technology. Technologies like Google Glass provide a glimpse of a future where social interaction occurs increasingly through electronic means like phones and computers, rather than in-person. While such technologies help connect people across distances and cultures, they also risk reducing face-to-face interactions and privacy as more information becomes readily available about individuals online.
How to put social into process
The document discusses how to incorporate social aspects into day-to-day business processes and workflows. It argues that social tools should not just be used for long-term learning, but to directly impact operations by making processes more flexible, solving problems faster, and improving coordination and decision making. The document outlines four challenges: 1) make social a routine part of work, 2) share tasks and debrief easily, 3) search for and connect with the right people, and 4) bring social and business tools together. Addressing these challenges can help "unleash the social potential" to boost workflow efficiency.
Sxsw 2012 part 2
The document discusses emerging technologies like big data, ambient technology, and voice/gesture interfaces. It notes that search engines are starting to act like intelligent agents that proactively provide contextual information. It also discusses issues around data privacy as data collection from various sources becomes ubiquitous. The end of privacy is debated as data about people's lives is increasingly public. The rise of big data and walled gardens threatens the open web. New interfaces like voice and gesture will also shape technology alongside robots.
Ux camp why ux matters
The document discusses user experience (UX) and who is responsible for it. UX goes beyond just the user interface - it involves the whole organization working together to understand how to provide value to users based on their needs and workflows. UX responsibility falls on the entire business to understand people's lives and how they find information. It requires teaching everyone in the business how to write and design for the web in an accessible and inclusive way, with everyone knowing their role in the user experience.
Andrew Johnson , Andrew Johnson App
The document discusses the challenges of digital distraction and the benefits of mindfulness and focused work. It notes that attention spans have decreased to only 8 seconds due to increased digital information. Mindfulness can help avoid "digital stress" and free up time for focused thinking. Many business leaders practice mindfulness. The document outlines benefits of focused work like decreased stress, increased productivity and creativity. It promotes establishing mindfulness habits and focus training to perform well in today's digital environment.
Organizational communication ppt
This document discusses communication and decision-making processes at Candy Land. It notes that Candy Land uses informal communication channels to encourage interaction between employees. Downward, upward, and electronic communication are utilized, and employees' recommendations are considered. Leaders aim to develop people rather than just businesses. Employees can participate in decision-making, though leaders are ultimately responsible. Employees work in teams, bringing together skills like technical expertise, problem-solving, and decision-making.
Nagaratna rawal
ICT provides several advantages for communication including speeding up the sending of information both within and outside an organization through tools like email and text messaging. It also improves organizational communication by allowing anyone access to information as needed and allowing information to flow more easily throughout an organization. Additionally, using ICT for communication is cost effective, such as sending an email internationally being cheaper than a phone call, and can improve education and provide more business opportunities while eliminating cultural gaps.
Digital Barnsley
The document discusses the transition to a digital age and opportunities for Digital Barnsley. Key points include:
1) Society is entering a new digital age, driven by mobile technology, apps, cloud computing, and other digital innovations that will transform how people work, access services, and interact.
2) Digital technologies can boost the local economy through private investment, new jobs, and businesses if the area establishes a reputation as a leading digital innovation hub.
3) The strategy for Digital Barnsley includes providing universal online access, supporting digital adoption in the business community and connected communities, and transforming public services to be digital by default.

The Key to Going Digital: Think People
This document discusses how crowdsourcing technology and persona-based approaches can help create a happier and more productive digital workplace. It argues that traditional IT approaches focus too much on process efficiency rather than empowering workers. The key is putting people before process. Crowdsourcing leverages social platforms to shift provisioning and support to users. Persona-based approaches tailor the user experience based on individual roles to maximize engagement and productivity. The combination of these approaches helps align changing business needs in the new digital environment.

a transformation of human life by information technology
This document is a student assignment on how information technology is changing working lives. It begins with an introduction describing the rise of IT and mobile phone adoption in developing countries like Indonesia. It then defines information technology and discusses major innovations like the internet, personal computing, and cloud computing. The paper analyzes how IT has changed working lives in business through teleworking and in education through distance learning. It concludes that IT has become an important part of our working lives by transforming the ways people work.
The increased penetration of IT into our lives has led to .docx
The increased penetration of IT into our lives has led to changes in many ways in our lives. IT has changed the way people communicate, travel among many others uses of IT. The impacts of IT have transformed cultures and created a whole new culture of people defined by the age of IT they grew up. Thus, it is likely to hear people being described as old simply because they were born before the computer became famous in people’s homes and offices. The young generation boasts of understanding IT more than the older generation. Interaction among the younger generation is different from the interaction that the earlier generations had. Therefore, it begs the question as to whether the younger generation might perform their work differently than the earlier generation (Robert, 2009).
This is true when it comes to IT. While the earlier generations could not rely heavily on the little advances in IT that were present, the younger generations have perfected the overreliance on IT in their works. This might see them doing things differently as compared to their elderly counterparts. For example, while transactions in an organization followed the traditional ways of completing transactions, it has made it possible to use the gadgets such as phones and internet to conduct transactions. This has increased efficiency in the organizations.
Although developments in IT are usually beneficial to economies, organizations, and individuals, the difference in doing work can bring difficulties in the place of work. The difference is likely to create confusions due to the lack of information on IT for the earlier generations. They maintain their ways of doing things while the younger generation has adopted IT. An opportunity that might arise from the difference is the improvement in efficiency of doing things, hence high quality.

The digital revolution has taken the world by storm. With new technologies no longer taking years to be released, people have become more accustomed to daily changes in certain technological aspect. Information technology (IT) is one of the areas which has evolved and become engrained in the daily lives of people (Cortada, 2012). The question which seems to emerge in the midst of these changes is the differences in the work among the younger and older generations.
The workplace is one of the areas which have been heavily influenced by the increased IT penetration. Networking in the workplace has massively changed as IT increasingly becomes part of our daily lives. Employees are easily able to network with other people whether they are within or outside working environments or schedule (Fahr, 2011). Devices such as smart phones and platforms such as social networks increase free flow of information.
Telecommuting is the other aspect of work which will differ as the new generation enters the workforce to replace the earlier gen ...

This document summarizes a research study that examined the relationship between personality traits and attitudes towards teleworking among Generation Z. The study used the Big Five personality traits (openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism) and surveyed Generation Z individuals to understand how their personalities related to their attitudes towards working remotely. The results found that only openness had a significant positive relationship with attitude towards teleworking, while the other four traits did not show a significant relationship. The document provides background on teleworking, Generation Z, personality traits, and reviews other studies on factors influencing teleworking attitudes.
Technology In Canada
This document discusses technology and telecommuting trends in Canada. It notes that the percentage of Canadian companies offering telecommuting options has risen in recent years.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

National Security Agency - NSA mobile device best practices
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
