This is a concise presentation on business transformation through IoT delivered at the Smart Home Summit in Burlingame, CA in November 2018. The presentation touches on how and why the data from connected IoT devices can be incredibly valuable to the business and drive digital transformation in the enterprise.
AI and Machine Learning for Connected Product SupportJosh Pederson
In this presentation delivered at the NEMA Conference in June 2018, we touch on the application of advanced data analytics (machine learning ML and artificial intelligence AI) to reduce support costs and downtime of commercial equipment in the IoT. Through a real-world use case we illustrate the various steps to build toward true predictive maintenance of equipment and highlight the strong opportunity for business value / ROI in the IoT.
This is a concise overview of cellular technology in IoT today. The presentation focuses on cellular communications in IoT and was delivered by Josh Pederson at a speaking session of the Cloud Expo 2018 conference in New York, NY. The presentation discusses the history of cellular in IoT and the arrival of low power wide area (LPWA) cellular communications of LTE-M and NB-IoT. In addition various consumer and commercial use cases for LPWAN cellular devices are provided.
The Analytics Value Chain - Key to Delivering Business Value in IoTPeter Nguyen
In the IoT, new analytics approaches are needed to handle the time critical nature of IoT challenges.
The first step in designing a new approach is to simplify the process by integrating all the data for an IoT application. That includes all the structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data in your organization.
The second key step in the streamlining process is to unify the analytics layer.
This includes historical analytics (descriptive & diagnostic), real-time streaming analytics, predictive analytics, and prescriptive analytics.
The approach to analytics outlined above is a good first step for IoT. However, it is the ability to execute analytics in real-time across the analytics value chain (streaming, historical, predictive, and prescriptive analytics) with relevant contextual and situational data that addresses the critical “last mile” for timely outcomes.
Then this must be combined with the ability to take the next best action in any particular scenario to create the greatest value.
IoT is growing its adoption across industries, mainly due to the cost-cutting and centralized plant monitoring and connectivity, geo-fencing, oredictive maintenance, workforce productivity, workforce security and others.
The Internet of Things is transforming the way we work and live. IoT technologies are enabling enterprises to create new business models, transform customer engagements and catapult entire industries forward. Technologies like cognitive computing, IoT Platforms, blockchain and Digital Twin are rapidly reinventing how businesses are driving industry transformation. This session explores how businesses across the world are taking advantage of the ever-more-connected world to drive smarter and more profitable business.

The Business of Enterprise IoT: A survey of US and UK Executives Aeris
Most enterprise IT decision-makers -- 71% -- feel their organization’s Internet of Things (IoT) strategy gives them a competitive edge over their competitors. That’s just one of the insights gathered by research firm Vanson Bourne for Aeris in a study now available. We had 300 executives from the United States and the United Kingdom polled to examine IoT’s perceived impact on business in the year ahead, as well as to determine how perspectives on IoT have evolved since 2013.

The Internet of Things - beyond the hype and towards ROIPerry Lea
How do you move beyond the hype of IoT and towards profitability? This short lecture examines the hype and origin of IoT and the reality of the industry. It then talks about my experiences with the industry, customers, and technologists. Some have outright failed in IoT projects, others are succeeding.
Get beyond the prototype and lab experiment.
"An Internet of Things Blueprint for Smarter Cities", public lecture given at the Networked Society Institute at the University of Melbourne, on 12 October 2015.

Definition, timeline, implemented technologies, requirements and comparison between different technologies of Internet of Things (IoT) in energy management, plus a regional comparison of IoT market size focusing on Iran.
According to GE, there are 10 digital trends which define the current revolution and will determine the future of the world’s power and utilities sector.
IoT is a critical enabler for going digital. Like other domains, getting the basics right is critical to make a thriving IoT ecosystem. I did this workshop in Middle East to educate the audience (from public and private sector) on the three essential enablers for building a trustworthy foundation for IoT projects: reliable connectivity, a robust security framework and an agile monetization environment. Data generated by IoT endpoints may very well be the oil, but it requires these three key enablers to make it all work!

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

20.4B connected devices by 2020
Gartner
More than half of major new business processes and systems will incorporate some element of the Internet of Things (IoT) by 2020, according to Gartner, Inc. The impact of the IoT on consumers' lives and corporate business models is rapidly increasing as the cost of "instrumenting" physical things with sensors and connecting them to other things — devices, systems and people — continues to drop.
"Uses of the IoT that were previously impractical will increasingly become practical," said W. Roy Schulte, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner. "The IoT is relevant in virtually every industry, although not in every application. There will be no purely 'IoT applications.' Rather, there will be many applications that leverage the IoT in some small or large aspect of their work. As a result, business analysts and developers of information-centric processes need to have the expertise and the tools to implement IoT aspects that play a role in their systems."
