Always-on connectivity is eliminating the gap between here and there. We call this trend Anywhereization. And it’s changing the way we do everything
Technology Through the Looking Glass: 2013-2020
The news is filled with stories of companies promising to “disrupt” this technology or that market. Growing trends such as mobile, apps, BYOD, open source, MOOCs, Vine-video, Social TV, 'big data,' compete for our attention and understanding. Microsoft is finally in the cloud, YouTube adds 100 hours of video per minute, Google is making devices like 'Glass,' Twitter is truly revolutionary, and Facebook may be competing with them all. Yet some of the biggest social impacts are due to much lower technologies such as sms mapping, micro-payments, mobile health. Don’t miss this look into the future from two provocative thought leaders!

Smartphones
For their final project, second semester Northern Virginia Community College Composition students (ENG 112) work in groups to create presentations that introduce, analyze, and draw a conclusion about a significant American cultural artifact, (a trend, a celebrity, or anything that significantly impacts American culture). Students work together to build a persuasive argument using a combination of text, multimedia, and visual design. Students develop a claim about the negative or positive impact of the artifact on the demographic of American culture it affects. Alternatively, students may discuss what the artifact says about our culture.
These students are asked to explore a cultural artifact and determine its significance and/or role in our society. Students are encouraged to present their findings using any media they wish to implement.
2017 aug pbs kp tu rao apple dm disruptive iinnovation
This document provides an overview of digital marketing and disruptive innovation by Apple Inc. It discusses how technologies like the computer, internet and mobile phone have disrupted industries through innovations. Apple is highlighted for innovations like the iPod, iPhone, and how it uses digital marketing strategies. The document also reviews the history of innovations in computing from the personal computer revolution to modern smartphones and social media.
L23 Robotics
Manlike machines have fascinated humans since ancient times. The modern robots start to take shape with the industrial revolution. In the 20th century robots were mostly industrial machines you would see in factories, like car factories.
Today, robots can have sensors, vision, they can hear and understand. They can connect to the cloud for more information. However, we are still in the early stages of robotics and robots will need to go a long way to become useful as a ubiquitous general purpose devices.
Manufacturing for the future
Manufacturing is undergoing a fourth industrial revolution driven by emerging technologies. The document discusses the phases of the first three industrial revolutions from the 18th to early 21st centuries and how new technologies like cyber-physical systems and the industrial internet of things are building blocks of Industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 will digitize entire value chains and integrate them, transforming not only businesses and economies but also society and individuals. However, challenges remain in fully realizing Industry 4.0's potential, such as developing new skills and sustaining motivation for people to learn and excel in a changing manufacturing landscape.
WHY TECHNOLOGY CHANGE IS INCREASING FASTER
The document discusses how the pace of technological change is accelerating. It notes that while it takes 30-50 years for a new technology to become ubiquitous, many modern technologies like 3D printing and AI were invented in the 1960s but have now reached mass adoption due to improvements in scale, quality and cost. The document also cites Moore's Law of computing power doubling every two years as a driver of faster change, as well as the commoditization of technologies like networking and computing which has enabled widespread innovation. Overall the document argues that while the rate of new inventions may be steady, the pace of change feels faster due to parallel innovations now bringing older ideas to mass markets.

The connected society had not yet become an expression in 2010. We discussed future concepts that seem to make sense from a User Experience perspective.
With the benefit of hindsight we can say that a lot of this is still relevant.
Communications
The document discusses the history and impact of communications technology in Canada. It describes how communications has evolved from early inventions like writing to modern technologies like television, phones, and email. The communications industry plays an important economic role in Canada by creating jobs, selling products domestically and internationally, and bringing money into the country. However, it also faces challenges like high energy use and pollution from manufacturing facilities. The industry is expected to continue growing and creating new technologies and jobs in the future.
Internet of No Things @ Slush 2015
This document discusses the rise of an "Internet of No Things" in the future where devices become so integrated with our environment that we no longer need to directly interact with them. It outlines how as technology gets smaller, cheaper, and more capable, everything from appliances to physical infrastructure will become connected. This hyperconnected planet could either be managed through a conservative agenda that focuses on maintaining the current system, or a progressive agenda that harnesses new technologies to solve problems while upholding social values. The progressive agenda may represent the Nordic approach to guiding development of a hyperconnected world.
New Technology 2018 Lecture L01 Introduction
At any given moment it is easy to look back to see how technology has changed over time. At the same time it is difficult to see what transformations are taking place in current moment, and even more difficult to see where things are going.
We will explore what technology is. For us it may be the latest tech stuff we see, something new. But what about everyday objects that we take for granted. Are those not technologies also?
How does technology evolve and where did it come from? We look at some ideas on evolution of technology and how it is similar to biology in some ways. We will also look at the origin of the word technology. Finally we will define the term we will use in the course. Terms defined are technology, product performance, and innovation to name few.
Data as material
The document discusses several topics related to open innovation, post-industrial design, and the internet of things. It explores using data as a material and social processes, as well as making invisible data visible through real-time projections. The document also discusses wireless civic spaces and how free public Wi-Fi can transform use of public spaces by extending hours of use and increasing safety. It closes by asking questions about problems in markets that cannot be solved alone and how to design services to allow customer hacking and playfulness.
New Technology 2014 L01 Introduction
The document discusses the fall of Nokia's mobile dominance and its partnership with Microsoft. It notes that in the 2000s, Nokia had over 35% of the global mobile market and over 73% of the smartphone market, but that its market share declined rapidly after 2007. In 2011, Nokia's CEO acknowledged in a memo that the company was "standing on a burning platform" and not innovating fast enough. Shortly after, Nokia announced a partnership with Microsoft to use its Windows platform instead of Nokia's own Symbian software. In 2013, Microsoft fully acquired Nokia's mobile business for $7.2 billion.
Industrial internet roundtable
The document discusses the ongoing third industrial revolution brought about by advances in computing technology and networks. It describes how the first revolution involved mechanization to replace human muscle power, and the second used electricity and engines to replace muscle work. Now, the third revolution aims to replace human mental work with artificial intelligence through advances in computer technology, networking, and control systems. Everything is becoming digital and networked, changing many industries and aspects of society. However, this increased connectivity also introduces new cybersecurity risks that must be addressed.
The Evolution and Impact of Computers and techology
Computers have become an indispensable part of our daily lives, transforming the way we work, communicate, and navigate the world. The journey of computers from room-sized machines to sleek, portable devices is a testament to the remarkable progress in technology. This article explores the evolution of computers, their impact on society, and the future of computing.

The Internet of Everything: Tom Lee, Stanford School of Engineering
Wireless has evolved from Marconi's station-to-station telegraphy, to audio and video broadcasting, to today’s person-to-person mobile digital communications. Each transition has surprised even the revolutionaries who brought it about, and each transformed civilization. We expect similar disruptions from the next phase of interconnectivity, in which a trillion objects join the conversation. Tech pundits have long talked about an Internet of Things, a vision most often dominated by machine-to-machine communications in industrial settings. Lee will make the case for the Internet of Everything in which humans will be involved in the most compelling applications yet to emerge. He will describe some possible futures, and how Stanford engineers are working to overcome significant challenges to realize those futures.

Coming Of Calm Technology
The document discusses trends in computing and the concept of "calm technology". It describes three major phases of computing: the mainframe era, the personal computer era, and the upcoming ubiquitous computing era. The ubiquitous computing era will involve many small computers embedded in everyday objects. The document argues that for ubiquitous computing to be successful, technology must be designed to remain calm and unobtrusive by engaging both the center and periphery of human attention. It provides examples of potential calm technologies like inner office windows and internet multicast.
Ict
The document discusses information and communication technology (ICT). It defines ICT and explains why it is needed. It provides a brief history of ICT and compares ICT from the past to present. Examples of ICT gadgets and media are given. Breakthroughs in ICT are outlined along with both positive and negative effects of ICT on communication, society, and health. In conclusion, the document notes that while ICT provides benefits, some are concerned about potential risks from rapid technological changes.
Article -- bridging the gap - m.roach 2007
This document discusses efforts to bridge the digital divide between developed and developing nations. It notes that while internet access is ubiquitous in Australia, in many places only 4 phone lines and 1 computer are shared between 1000 people. Recent initiatives by companies like Intel and OLPC aim to provide low-cost computers to children in developing areas, but challenges implementing technologies at such a large scale mean mistakes are likely. While a positive step, questions remain about how far these initiatives can go in truly solving global poverty issues.

Being digital
This document discusses key concepts from Nicholas Negroponte's book "Being Digital". It summarizes that bits are the underlying particles of the digital world and computing, atoms are being replaced by bits in an irrevocable change. All media is becoming digital due to data compression and error correction, allowing different media to easily combine into multimedia and hypermedia forms. Interfaces allow interaction with digital devices and should be intuitive with helpful feedback. The rise of the internet and digital technologies is creating a world with less dependence on physical location where information can be personalized and accessed on demand.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

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.
