Specifically, how will in-memory approaches change in the next three to five years, as it is increasingly relied upon to support the emerging Internet of Things? Jason also briefly looks at some of the other nascent technologies that are likely to be used in parallel with in-memory computing, and he wraps up by asking what kind of role in-memory is likely to play in related areas such as cloud computing and edge analytics.

Convergence of AI, IoT, Big Data and Blockchain: A Review.
Kefa Rabah .
Mara Research, Nairobi, Kenya .
Abstract
Data is the lifeblood of any business. Today, big data has applications in just about every industry – retail, healthcare,
financial services, government, agriculture, customer service among others. Any organization that can assimilate data
to answer nagging questions about their operations can benefit from big data. In overall, the demand for big data
transcend across all sectors and business. Those who work to understand their customers’ business and their problems
will be able to proactively identify big data solutions appropriate to their needs, and thus gain competitive advantage
over their competitors. Job demand for people with big data skill-set is also in the rise especially professional,
scientific and technical services; information technology; manufacturing; and finance and insurance; and retail.
DevOps is baseless without the cloud. IoT needs cloud to operate efficiently, for computing is required by the cloud
operate efficiently. AI remained only as model up until the advent of big data. Blockchain and related distributed
ledger technologies are disrupting the technology sector as we know it. The confluence of technologies is just
inevitable and often they are beneficial especially today when usher in the 4th industrial revolution (Rabah, 2017a)
and the forth coming machine economy (Rabah, 2018). More-so, data is a key ingredient of approaches to developing
AI and machine learning, which are now being applied to a wide variety of uses, from stock trading to chatbots to
self-driving cars. There is barely a business or human activity today that is not considered as a target for AI in future
years and decades.

Presentation of a working paper that uses data science methods to analyse the geography and drivers of Deep Learning Research.
https://arxiv.org/abs/1808.06355
Established fields and industries tend to cluster geographically, and the question of to what extent these can be disrupted has a long history of research.
We take a modern look at this question, by analysing the effect of the emergence of the deep-learning paradigm in the broader domain of machine learning research.
This presentation outlines the drivers of an algorithmic economy, the people who work on it and its challenges. I pay special attention to the risks of algorithmic error and safety, and the human supervisors in charge of managing it.
To Err is Algorithm: Algorithmic Fallibility and Economic OrganisationJuan Mateos-Garcia
Slides for paper presented at Data for Policy Conference September 2017.
Abstract
Algorithmic decision-making systems based on artificial intelligence and machine learning are enabling unprecedented levels of personalisation, recommendation and matching. Unfortunately, these systems are fallible, and their failures have costs. I develop a formal model of algorithmic decision-making and its supervision to explore the trade- offs between more (algorithm-facilitated) beneficial deci- sions and more (algorithm-caused) costly errors. The model highlights the importance of algorithm accuracy and human supervision in high-stakes environments where the costs of error are high, and shows how decreasing returns to scale in algorithmic accuracy, increasing incentives to ’game’ popular algorithms, and cost inflation in human supervision might constrain optimal levels of algorithmic decision-making.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.
Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.
Digital econ policy data presentation for readie 18mar2016
1. Using new types of data to
measure the digital economy
Juan Mateos-Garcia
Juan.mateos-garcia@nesta.org.uk
READIE Research Summit, 21 March 2016
2. 1: What’s the big digital data opportunity?
Some important questions:
-Where it is happening
-How is it happening?
-What are the barriers?
-Do our interventions to
support it make a
difference?
We want to measure &
understand digital
innovation &
entrepreneurship to
support them better
Why is it hard to do
this with official
data?
What is the
policy problem?
What can we do
about it?
Rear-view of the
economy based on
existing industrial codes
Data in silos, lacking a
relational dimension,
Anonymised data: we
care about outliers but
learn about averages
Hard to identify new
industries, new
digital technologies,
new clusters
Fragmented,
incomplete view of
ecosystems
Imprecise targeting
across the policy
cycle
Use unstructured
data to create our
own categories
Combine datasets,
use social network
data
Use public data
The (big, open) data revolution is multiplying the opportunities to generate,
communicate and use data insights about digital industries
3. Example 1: Measuring digital industries poorly
covered by industry (SIC) codes
We used web data to
identify and map UK games
companies, evidencing the
limitations of existing SIC
codes and revealing new
clusters.
4. Example 2: Finding
communities
We used data from
Meetup.com (a website
used to organise networking
events to) to identify
communities interested in
different tech specialisms
across the UK.
6. Bringing it all together: Tech Nation 2016
In Tech Nation we
combine web, open and
official data to measure
the state of the UK digital
economy, its clusters and
its networks.
This allowed us to look at
digital tech subsectors,
measure digitisation in
non-digital industries,
analyse changes in digital
salaries and map regional
tech networks...
7. New data isn’t the silver bullet for digital econ policy
● It has weird biases
● Hard to use it for time series analysis
● Black box problems
● Lacks important variables (e.g.
financials)
● Need new skills to collect, analyse
and use.
● Policymakers aren’t purely data-
driven automatons
But used judiciously, and in
combination with other datasets, it
can create new information about
the digital economy that is relevant
for policymakers.
