The difficult art of quantifying return on digital investmentsBen Gilchriest
Measuring digital investments is proving to be a challenging task. Many companies have tried to create models that demonstrate the value of digital technologies, such as social media, applying traditional metrics to these. However, it's proving to be difficult to find a credible method.
So how do we make the difficult decision on where to invest in digital; especially when we are under so much pressure to do so much more? Whilst we need some sort of mechanism in place to make informed choices, traditional approaches to ROI are falling short. This paper describes these challenges in more detail (you are not alone, even amongst the world's leading digital companies, the 'Digirati', only 56% create a business case). It also describes three approaches you can take to define a digital business case, and provides perspectives on how to best approach digital investment decisions.
Enterprise Mobility Applications: Addressing a Growing GapBlackBerry
This new report on enterprise mobility applications highlights the alarming gap between Central IT and line-of-business IT environments. Millennials in particular are showing signs of growing frustration with the devices and software tools available to support them in the workplace. Many are making their own mobility arrangements, through ‘shadow IT’, despite growing regulatory risk. The advent of the ‘Internet of Things’ will further exacerbate the situation as mobile staff seek access to real time data from their phones and tablets.
Our recent survey of over 100 financial service organizations, conducted by Forbes Insights in the UK and North America, indicates that despite current business and employee demand, enterprise mobile applications remain at a very early stage of maturity, with less than a quarter of employees eligible to access such facilities. The implications here are profound, given the need to support mobile working with appropriate tools in every sphere of corporate activity today.
Many employees complain that the only advance over the last ten years has been to ‘mobilize the laptop’. This merely emulates the traditional desktop environment outside the office. Set against this stark background of underperformance in the mobility area, Central IT appears to be preoccupied with legacy issues such as costly infrastructures and aging systems. Our survey reveals that despite having developed policies and tools to address enterprise mobility, Central IT has little visibility of what is actually going on within the lines of business or at the end user level.
Nor does it have the necessary resources currently to respond rapidly to the growing pressures for workplace mobility. External agencies appear to be stepping in to fill this gap, frequently circumventing Central IT. Mobility remains low on the Central IT agenda.

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.

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).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Five Reasons why Digital Transformation is Essential for Business Growth.pdf
1. Five Reasons why Digital Transformation is Essential for
Business Growth
Since early 2020, organizations and industries have been dealt with a Hobson’s choice (a free
choice where only one thing is offered). They had to embrace digital as overnight transactions
and interactions went online.
Most executives concur that their companies experienced accelerated digitization of their
internal operations and customer and supply-chain interactions by two to four years. As the
uncertainty reduces, new growth is a business imperative two years on. An HBR study classifies
four distinct approaches for companies to roar out of recession – prevention, promotion,
pragmatic, and progressive. Regardless of the response organizations chose for the slowdown,
2. their future rebound can be rebooted through digital transformation. Here are five reasons –
urgent and essential.
1. Clear trends that reflect digital maturity: Most companies across sectors list customer-facing
initiatives (for instance, digital marketing) among their top goals. This is a perspective C-Suite
leaders have nurtured over months now, primarily because they believe digital technologies are
fundamentally disruptive to their (or their competitors’) business models. The behavior can be
seen in two pieces of evidence: More business functions (rather than CIO or CTO organizations)
are sponsoring transformation budgets, and secondly, the rapid appointments of Chief Digital
Officers. Finally, there is the associated mindset shift – Digital transformations today are more
about revenue generation and increasing customer intimacy than the traditional focus on cost-
cutting. For example, Frito-Lay ramped its digital and data-driven programs during the pandemic,
fast-tracking five years of digital plans into six months.
2. Correlation between digital transformation and revenue growth: An influential survey of 1400
companies worldwide elaborates on how digital influences financials. Companies that report 70%
completion also show twice the revenue growth compared to ones just getting started. Led by
firms in Healthcare, Aerospace, Financial institutions, High Tech., and Communications,
companies across North and Latin America are ahead of the rest of the world. Another layer of
insights can be gleaned from the top three motivations: increasing market share and accelerating
speed to market, improving brand reputation, and boosting employee retention and
productivity. When it comes to departments closer to transformation journeys, the order works
out as IT, Marketing & Sales, Product and Services Innovation, Customer service, and Operations.
3. Digital is the new way of responding to customers: More than thinking of it as implementing
technology, digital transformation should be seen as a response to how technology changes the
business landscape amid the shifting customer expectations. Consider how the innovators –
Amazon and Netflix, for instance – seized the megatrends on the horizon (mobiles, social media,
IoT, and cloud computing) to reinvent business models (ecommerce and electronic delivery) and
optimize processes (supply chain and new features). Admittedly, digital transformations dare to
go where no one else does. From automating processes to creating a disruption-moat, or even
3. enabling friction-less access to new features – digital – after all, is an organization’s way to catch
up to the ever-escalating customer expectations.
4. Workforce Virtualization: As hybrid models and work from home (or anywhere) become a
permanent option across companies, not to talk of ‘the great resignation,’ companies have to
rely urgently on digital capabilities to select, hire, train, and manage talent. Most sectors tread
carefully as their economic recovery models primarily depend on how quickly remote working
