Best Practices For Getting The Most Out Of Your Intranet & Digital Workplace ...Richard Harbridge
What’s the best way to improve a successful Intranet or Digital Workplace? With intelligence, analytics and targeted insight!
Modernizing your Intranets and Digital Workplaces with the latest version of SharePoint or Office 365 is necessary but not sufficient. The question for many organizations is how we get even more value out of the Intranet after it has been upgraded, migrated and modernized. To achieve greater levels of success you need greater insight and to understand the importance of engagement, analytics and how these can improve employee experiences and content within the organization.
Join Richard Harbridge, Office 365 MVP & Intranet expert, as he shares engagement & analytics real world examples and best practices. These practices have helped successful customers get more from Office 365, SharePoint, their Intranets and their Digital Workplaces.
The Social Enterprise In A Cloud First And Mobile First World - SPTechConRichard Harbridge
Organizations today need to be more responsive. People are more connected than ever before. The world has become a giant network, with people sharing, learning, and making decisions on the go at every second. What if you, and every person in your company could work together, like a network? What might that look like and how might social enterprise technology play a role?
While many organizations understand the benefits social technology can provide it’s often not as clear how we can go about implementing these technologies in a way that complements our organizations investments in powerful collaborative technologies like SharePoint. SharePoint is used as an enterprise collaboration platform in almost every organization, yet many organizations are still in the process of deciding why and when they should implement some of the new social capabilities or how best to leverage Social technologies like Yammer with their current investments.
Join Richard Harbridge as he shares Microsoft’s vision for Enterprise Social and the future of work. Richard will explain how and where customers are investing in social, what is changing and important to understand, and what technology investments have been made and are being made by Microsoft to help customers connect and work in a cloud first and mobile first world.
Everybody talks about Digital Transformation and Digital Disruption and the impact on Marketing. Marketing needs to find new ways to interact, sure. But do digital transformation of marketing and digital marketing even exist? Not sure! Whatever, you still need to get ready for new technologies like Voice. And you should do it fast.

A connected city brings benefits to the residents and the municipal agencies and departments that serve them. For instance, smart lighting is more efficient, saving substantial costs to the city which can be passed down to the residents, and it also provides added safety and security. Connected cars and street lights can enable traffic managers to control traffic lights to optimize the flow of traffic in the most congested areas. From services to safety a smart, connected city, will be a successful and economically sound city.

Andres Corrada-Emmanuel - Ground Truth Problems in BusinessMassTLC
Ground truth for data is frequently missing in business. It is either
unavailable, expensive to get, or private. This talk focuses on the
ubiquity of this problem in today’s world in which more and more of the data
production flows require Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence
algorithms. How can we measure the accuracy of our algorithms/robots
when curated data is scarce or missing? We offer a universal
suggestion to solving these problems – bypass the need for detailed
knowledge of the ground truth for your data by estimating directly the
statistics of interest for research and business development. We
suggest that a future with smart robots will require that they measure
their own errors so they can function autonomously from humans.
We illustrate this approach with four real-world examples
Focusing multiple aerial maps into a precise final map – ground truthunknown.
Studying the dynamics of data flows in a large ad-tech database withHyperLogLog – ground truth expensive.
Measuring the accuracy of a unique web ID service (super cookie)without user identity – ground truth private.
Measuring the accuracy of binary classifiers – ground truth unknown.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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.
zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
