2013 Future state E-commerce Trends WebinarMichael Healey
This deck is from an InformationWeek 2013 Internet Trends webinar. Summary: There's no such thing as a standalone ecommerce site – today, this function cannot be a bolt-on. Companies must go broad and think holistically, looping in ERP, suppliers, security, marketing automation packages and more. There are multiple ecommerce instances geared for specific partners. But it's a big, ongoing development challenge, and customers demand a seamless experience, whether interacting on PCs, tablets or smartphones. Yet, there are no standards to lean on.
In this webcast we'll discuss state-of-the-art back-end infrastructure and automation, ways to overcome gaps in transaction processes, and services-based options.
You'll learn:
Technical hurdles and design considerations
Major challenges and opportunities to improve
Examples of companies using best practices to get this right
This document is a collection of diagrams illustrating various pricing curves and pricing concepts, including supply-demand curve, price-revenue curve, breakeven curve, market skimming, market penetration, and product adoption lifecycle curve

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.

- The question of value asks how valuable the resource is to the firm in terms of enabling the firm to respond to threats and to create value. First, before the firm can determine resource value, it must first recognize the threats and opportunities in the external environment. Second, firms must realize that the value of a particular resource is dynamic in the long run. The question of rareness builds on the question of value, asking how many competing firms already possess that valuable resource The question of imitability addresses the sustainability of strategies by looking at the ease and cost with which a competitor may be able to duplicate or find a substitute for the valuable resource The question of organization considers whether the firm has the internal capabilities and systems that will allow the firm to extract the maximum value from the resource
